Pucks Ideas on the Political Struggle.

If Mr.. James G. Blaine knew whom
and what he is fighting, he would pro-
badly be very glad to withdraw from
the contest. He believes, no doubt,
that he has to battle only with the
Democratic party and-its Independent
Republican allies. He thinks that
the object of the combat is the pos
session of the Presidency of the Unit
ed States. No man ever made a
greater mistake. The suppression Of
Mr.. Blaine is but an incident in the
plan of the campaign which began
last June, and which will be brought
to successful ending sooner or later,
as surely as the sun rises and sets; as
surely as truth is true.
The over-confdent faulty Of the
Republican leaders keeps them blind to
the fact that they are now face to face
with Revolution. They know, in
deed, that there is revolt within the

The above shows that the Republi.
cans had plurality of only 9l6 over
the Fusion candidate. 1t also shows
that the total opposition vote exceeds
the Republican vote by 1868.
There is strong opposition to Mr..
Gibson, the Republican nominee, in
his own party, and as Mr.. Fisher, the
opposition candidate, will receive, we
believe, the cordial support of all the
Democrats and Butler men, his cleo
ton is very likely to take place. He
can be elected if the Democrats and
Butler men will only go to the polls
and vote next November.

all unanimously in favor of the prop
