VICTORY SURE.

The Chicago convention has given tho
American people what they have long sought
in vain, namely, an opportunity for voting
for the most popular man in the country.
For once the delegates to the convention were
in accord with tho people who chose them,
and no sort of management" no sort of
bargains no sort of trading, no treachery, no
broken promises had any influence. A long,
and fear, "a bitter campaign is before us, but
victory is as sure to crown tho nominees of
last weeks convention as tho sun is sure to
shine on q bright day. Naturally there are
many disappointments, but these will soon
disappear and tho party in November will
stand united and victorious.
WILL BE ELECTED.
Washington Capital (Iadl.
Before the convention met many people did
not believe it possible for Mr. Blaine to obtain
the republican nomination. Few can now be
found will deny that it came to him fairly
this year. IIe is tho man the majority
of republicans want to elect to the presidency
to succeed Mr.. Arthur II is true there is q
large number of republicans who are OK
tremely anxious that no should not be elected.
But we doubt whether they are numerous
enough to beat him merely by staying away
from tho polls. There will need to be good
many republican votes for the democratic
candidate to defeat him. We have no hesita-
tion in saying that Mr.. James G.. Blaine is
personally more pleasing, more popular, to
use tho common word, in this country than
any other man has ever been.
HE WILL MAKE A GOOD PRESIDENT.
Washington Herald (Dem,)
We congratulate the republicans upon
having nominated Blaine, They have shown
courage, which is fine quality in parties as
we'll as in mon. JIe is the most eminent
| living republican, he is unquestonably the
preference of the masses of his party; he is
an able, fearless man, amply experienced in
public affairs. If elected, which we hope
! and believe he will not be, James G. Blaine
| will make good president Blaine 10 tho
incarnation of tho republican party. He,
better than any other living man, represents
its history, its IDEAS and its purposes. 1t is
fitting that he should be its candidate and 20
down with ii next November.
