RLAINE,S THEORY.

Mr.. Blaine's theory of government, which
is also the theory of the Republican party.
is that possession is the essence OF ownership,
and that it carries with it certain extroardi-
nary powers and rights, not delegated, but as
belonging to it by right of possession, and
which is conferred by the inherent sover.
eighty of the government upon the indi-
vidual or party possessing the control OF the
machinery. 1t is by no means a new theory,
although this is the first attempt that has
ever been made to apply its principles in
this country since the defeat of the
British Armies, and the establishment of
our present system OF government more than
100 years ago. 1t is the first step toward
Capitalization, and when the step has been
successfully taken and the principle re-
cognized. the balance can be easily ac-
complished by fat of the powers that be.
A power of inherent sovereign ty in the
Government can not exist in States united
by q Confederacy unless the States first sur
render their jurisdiction over their own con-
Germs. Sovereign power can not be dele
gated or conferred by the States upon the
general Government without sub
stantially annihilating boundary State lines
and annulling legislative enactments, beside
practically comforting unlimited power upon
the general Government over both State and
interstate trade and commerce.
Unlimited power such as the Republican
party are trying to secure would at once
put in practice Mr.. Blaine's theory of gov
eminent and establish at Washington an un-
defined power which would be used to en-
force the doctrine that possession confers the
right to use the machinery of the Govern
ment to perpetuate their title to the confed-
GRAFTON and all the belongings thereto, in
Guiding all the power of sovereignty as un-
derstood by those who believe in mysteri-
ously derived authority that is above written
law.
The people of the United States are sover-
eigns, and sovereign power is lodged in
them only. The sovereignty of the Govern
ment at Washington exists only in Mr..
Blaine's theory of government and must re-
main myth until the people consent to
transfer their rights and privileges as free
men to a centralized power whose preroga-
tive is as beundless as its own will and de.
sire. Are the people ready to make this
transfer?

CALKINS AS A FINANCIER.

Mr.. CALKINs, one word with you this
morning. We thought when you were first
nominated that you were simply a clever,
geod-natured sort of weak brother with
talent for that sort of fnesse which you so
beautifully illustrated when, with Eugene
Bundy, you beat Dudley and Tom Hanna
out OF the Republican nomination for Gov
ernor and Lieutenant Governor respectively.
You are, however, doubtlessly moderated.
You have the ability of a brilliant financier
and your way to glory in that direction lies
wide open before you. You are, per-
haps, a triAe cautieus-you do not
take fortune at its food tide. The words of
a great unknown, "go in lemons!' have no
beckonlng Authorizations for you. 1t is a
pity. That swamp" transaction which we
laid before our readers last Saturday morn
ing should encourage you to bold move
ments in finance. Grant and Ward would
pale before Calkins & Co. Any man that
can borrow 500 on northern Indiana swamp
land where a mosquito must carry a KNAPP
sack to keep from starving to death, should
have no ambition to be Governor of the
State. The swamp, we understand, on
which you gathered in the money from
confdlng loan association stands to
day appraised at 5000 with no takers. Now,
if Rhody Shiel had this sort of ability, the
funds of the State might be trusted with
him, but then Rhody is short" in that di-
rection. You, however, would make a
brilliant fund handler. Suppose you and
Rhody swap" positions. Rhody is not
doing much good where me is, although he
does seem to be enjoying himself somewhat,
and as your entire combination is bound for
Salt River. why, it makes but little differ
ence whether Rhody or you heads the pro-
cession.
However, we do not care to wander from
our text this morning, and we will, there
fore, get back again. We have another IL
lustration of your dazzling financial ability
to bring to your attention. They do say that
you can beat the world posing as a civil
service reformer. As a candidate for Con-
gress in Northern Indiana you forced every
Federal officeholder to 'whack up" gener-
ously to pull you through. One of the in
stances given presents, it is said, most az
| gravated case of party blackmail in the way
Of squeezing money from poor war-widow
with a large family to support. That
looks rough, and perhaps ''butternut" or a
'copperhead" might feel like firing
you out OF a fourth-story window if he had
the chance. but then, they say you are such
"clever fellow" with so much personal
magnetism" that you could draw blood out
OF turnip. Good morning. We do wonder
