oSSScS mere III oregon are un1tlng tnslf |
voices in one lsua huzzAh for Blaine of |
Maine, we give the following extract
frsm the New York Herald, to show
what Is said Of him by ons. of The met
ropolitan Journals Of the world:
80 the Republicans are going to
nominate Dir. Blaine The friends Of
the "Plumsd Knight" are asserting all
over the country that his nOmina tien is
as good as made If they are to be
believed, the Republican voters are
lying awake nights in their impatisnce
to see Mr.. Blaine nominated.
1t may ali be true, this tremendously
pressing cry fer Blaine Of Name,
though it seems to us sometimes that
the voices which most lsudly cry out
fer Blaine Of Maine ara the voices Of
political hummers and camp followers.
Still, in this we may be mistaken. Il
Is possibls that the convention will
noMinate Mr. Blaine with loud hur--
raA. Also that the country may elect
him with q still lender hurrah.
"Nssertheless, wa advise the Repub-
leans to be careful It is one thing to
nominate candidate, aud another. TO
elect him. When convention nomi.
mates man and the people thereafter
ratify the nomination, that is good
piece OF work. But when a convention
nopinates man and the people reject
him, that is not so comfortable.
"No doubt the managers Of some
great corporations and the controllers
of many monopolies would like Mr.
Blaine, but those gentry are not goine
to elect president this year Nc
doubt the political bummers, maAipu-
lators and camp followers ef'the party
would rejoice in Mr.. Blaine's nomina-
ton; but they are not going to elect 8
president this year We advise the
Republican leaders to be careful. The
Democrats are not in very good shape
but they can beat Blaine of Maine, be-
cause they will have d great deal o
Republican help IN doing it. They car
beat Blaine of Maine because he is The
weakest candidate the Republican,
) have, and becsuse his nomination al
Chicago would be pubic and ef6cla
announcement that the Repu blicar
paity-tae 'rartY of great moral ideas
had at last fallen so low As to place al
! its head person described BIZ the R-v
HeHr, Wara Beechfr the cthe: daf, il
tha following words: There Is an
other contingency. If the engineer
and managers Of the Republican party
shall select candidate for the PR si-
dency stained by jobbery, in allianc.
with the politics Of the great railwas
princes, hand and glove with csri'ap
lobbias, and in full faith with the cor
rupt and corrupting gangs who swar.f
our legislatures and live by sleek plum
der, it will be the duty Of every patti
otic Republican to secure his defeat,
} and SO on.
'EBnt there is no dangers Of Mr.
Blalne's nomination. Tie Republican,
; have had severe lessons Of late. Tn,
people punished them for toleratin;
Hsobeson ana tho party temporarily re-
! tired Rsbeson. The people punished
them for eleyating Keifer to the speak
ership and The patty has turned it
back on Keifer by ratfying unani
nous committee report which in effec
declares Ksifsr falsifer and perjursr
The Republican leaders have loat
enough to carry in the coming eam-
paign without adding Blaine of Main
: to it. They are carrying Dorsey, Bra
dy, Kellogg, Robson and Keife,
They wosld be gluttons if they adds'
| Blame.
"And, then, the whitewash might no
t held out if so great surface we're t
be covered. No; Mr.. Blaine will no
! be nominated.
