rank Mr.. Blaine as a fit exponent of

he has been conspicuous figure in the
politics Of his country. With powerful
political majority behind him in his state
up to the recent period in which it has

himself in public Office for nearly gen
Grafton. AS member Of the Legislature
Of the House, of the Senate and of the
cabinet, he has been in positions Of in
iluence and prominence, and he has not
lacked the ability to deal with the great
questions which have confronted public

official life.
But what measure Of statesmanship
can contemporary history fairly accord
to him ? Upon what great question
have his positive views impressed the
country or inspired its confidence in
him Reviewing his career what are
the peaks which lift themselves above
the plain?
Mr.. Blaine appears as a politician, not
as statesman. lie has been u boss 4"

He is an earnest sympathizer with all pub

THE New York ErcaiHy Post considers
very fran kly the question of the rela-
tions OF men with women rs touching
their public careers. II truly says that
nearly all of the great men who have
figured conspicuously in the history of
the world would have had little part in
its affairs If they had been barred there
from by their lack Of the virtue of con
tiucnce. In the face OF this fact it is
hardly worth while to argue whether the
world has been right or wrong in not de
mandIng this kind of virtue from those
to whom it has yielded applause and
power for other virtues and exalted
faculties. 1t is not to be denied that
men are judged by what they are able to
do and if they can do great deeds and
display great virtues they need not fear
the worlds criticism.
