BLAINE OR ARTHUR.
One of the leading supporters OF
Arthur asserted last night that the
president would go into the Chicago
convention with more votes from
Texas than Blaine. Someone re-
marked:
"You are very much mistaken, if
the delegates stand by the preferences
they have already announced"
"Oh, they say things to me that
they wouldn't say to you. l know
how they stand, and Arthur is all
right
"But isn't 1t rather strange that they
should encourage the Blaine boom by
stating that they are for him? That is
a very peculiar style OF supporting
Arthur
The other with grimace said:
"They are just simply id fools.
That is ALL"
The signs at the convention bode no
good to the red.headed ranger of the
Rio Grande. 1t was freely proclaimed
by dozens of delegates that Tom had
either to run for congress as Republic
can or step down ard out.
