The Power Behind the Tribune" Throne IN
1880.

In May and June, 1889, within a
month previous to the National Repub-
lican Convention, at which General
Grant and Mr.. Blaine were the leading
candidates, and which resulted finally
in the nomination of General Garfield,
the New York Tribune published a
series of vigorous and striking articles
attacking the Stalwart eement-es-
pecially Logan, Conkling, Cameron
and other leaders-and doing the best
possible to ruin the chances of all can
didatcs except Mr.. Blaine. The arti-
cles also derided the group of Massa-
chusetts men headed by Senator Hoar,
and generally had no mercy for any
Republican followers of Mr. Blaine.
These articles are now shown by fac
simile reproduction of the "copy' and
instruction to have been written by
Gail Hamilton MARY A. Dodge, Mr..
Blaine's relative, and now as then a
member of his household, and printed
in the Tribune by Mr.. Blaines author
ity and AT his direction.
