to-day in all respects the same man
that he was before the Convention as
sembled.
THE TATTooKD MAN.
From tie Chicago Herald-Ind. Rep.
In all its hideousness the tattooed
man will show upon every dead wall
the country through, but we do not
forget that four years ago the hateful
figures of the Credit Mobilier were
chalked upon every sidewalk, yet
Garfield was elected to make Blaine
his Prime Minister. Distrust, plan
ming defeat and proposing an Inde-
psndst Republican ticket goes out Of
the Convention, and not all the Re
publican press will eat its bitter and
persistent words of condemnation.
Party mon will find it wise to defer
discussion of Blaine's chances of sue
cess until the campaign shall fully
open, which cannot come until the
nominee of tho later Chicago Convsn-
ton is fully in the field.
WILL NOT SUPPORT 1T.
From the Boston Adsertiser-Rep.
We declare our inability to support
the nomination either in the present
aspect of the political field or in any
which now seems likely to present It.

FROM tie Buffalo Erprs,s-Rep.
The fight for Mr.. Blaine must be
forlorn hope at the best.
no REPETITION OF 1876.
From. the Philadelphia Rseerd-Ind. Rep.
There will be lively contest for
the Presidency. 1t behooves Congress
to wake up and pass such law as will
make it impossible to inaugarats an
other President who was not elected
by the people.
HOPEFUL, BUT DOUBTFUL.
.F1sns the cAscaye E.t<r oessn-Rsp-
There is no doubt but the nomina-
ton will be received with enthusiasm.
Bonfres will be kindled all over the
country, school houses and town halls
will echo the sonorous periods of In
gersolPs famous eulogy, and there will
be q grand response to the Leaders s
call, but it remains to be seen wheth-
or such enthusiasm will waste its force
within the close boundaries of party,
or, overfowing, take in the independ-
ent voter and sweep forward to victo-
ry.
PLUMEs ARE LIABLE TO DRooP.
From the Rochester, n. r, Herald.
The nomination Of James G. Blaine,
which was accomplished in great ex-
citement on the fourth ballot, cannot
be considered wise choice for rea-
sons many times stated by the Morn
ing Herald. Blaine is the only man
prominent before the Convention
whose nomination would please the
Democrats, for the reason that he is
the only one of the number who has q
record out of which that party can
make campaign capital. Moreover,
we do not believe Blaine will receive
the united Republican support, by
which only can he succeed at the
| polls. The nomination of Blaine was
made in one of the greatest hurrahs
that has aroused party since the
days of Henry Clay, and his managers
must bear in mind that it is no easy
matter to keep the enthusiasm up fol
| five long months until the ballots are
deposited in November, and this il
what will have to be done if the result
desired by them shall be accomplished
Though campaigners may make hel

/ of Logan to raise the chances of ths
ticket? He must certainly have se
cured the domination by virtue o
some bargain, for only few days agt
over his own signature he announced
that he would never take second place
Two objects were attained by th'
Blaine managers in this bargain, ont

in convention, and the other the hop,
