Republican Dissatisfaction.

The nomination of Blaine and Logan has
raised n revolt among the Independent Re
publicans of Massachusetts. The Reform
Club of Boston, which numbers among its
members Chas. Francis Adams, ,Jr., Bancroft
Davis, Richard Ii. Dana and other eminent
men, has declared unanimously that it will
not support them. The club has appointeda
committee to cooperate with independents MI
over the country to secure the nomination by
the Democrats of such men as they can sup.
port, and failing in this to nominate candi-
dates in sympathy with their reform senti-
ments.
The New York Times, the leading Repub-
lean paper OF the country; the New York
Post and Boston He,uM. Independent Rcpub-
lican; the Boston Ad0ertiser, Republican the
New York Staats Zeitung, the leading Ger
man newspaper of the United States /; the N.

Edge, Republican, and the the Chicago Her.
all, independent Republican, are some of the
newspapers which have denounced Blaine's
nomination. .......
Hnper's Weekly has renounccd Republi-
canism and the pen of Geo. VIM. Curtis and
the pencil of Thomas Mast will be used un.
sparingly for the defeat of Blaine and Logan
In the last number the Republican elephant
is pictured rs borne to the earth by the weight
of the Rcpull HON ticket. The paper says
Fidelity to Republican principle requires

Tho independent Republicans of New York
are taking the lead in the movement for n
national convention of Republicans from all
the States, who are opposed to Blaine. to be
held about August 1st. 1t is intended to in
dorsc the Democratic nominees, if they are
satisfactory, if not to nominate ticket for

chairman of the Democratic State Committee
of New York, positively declines to he can.
didalc for the Presidency. His reasons are II
luck of physical strength for the laborious
task of reforming the administration of tho
| federal government. Mr. Tilden reilcratcs
the determination he expressed in 1880
of retiring from public life, and says that in
| the four years which have since elapsed moth.
| ing has occurred to change his determination
| Mr.. T'ildcn's letter brcathcs n spirit of lofty
| patriotism and wisdom which will increase
! the respect and esteem in which he is held by
| the American people and deepen the regret
ofthe Democrats that he can not be their
candidate. Mr.. Tiden says truly that
"ncthcr the Democratic party nor the re.
public for whose future the party is the
best guarantee is now, or ever can be, de-
pendent upon any man for their successful
progress in the path of a noble destiny"
The Democrats must therefore seek anolh-
or candidate. and many of them are turning
to Gov Cleveland, of New York, as the man
who possesses all the essential qualifications
for the high Office of President, and who could
moreover carry New York 1t will he re-
membercd that he was elected Governor by IL
majority of 100000, receiving the support of
the Independent Republicans, who now OPP
pose Blaine. Senator Bayard would also be
acceptable to the same class of voters and
possesses the confidence of the entire Demo-
crativc and conservative clatcment of the
country Since the Democratic candidate,
to be elected, must carry New York, il
would be wise to defer to the wishes of the
Democrats of that State, with the assurance
that they would present no candidate upon
whom their brethren in other States could
not unite

Ballots.

On the first ballot Maryland cast 10 votes
for Blaine and for Arthur. On the second
and third, 10 for Blaine and for Arthur
On the last ballot the entire Maryland dele
CATION, with the exception of DIR. Green, went
with the tide and voted for Blaine.
In all New England Blaine received but
one outside his own State, and that was from
Massachusetts,. The Arthur men stuck
pretty closely to their text, and so did the
friends of Hawley and Edmunds. The latter
were headed by George William Curtis,
editor of Haapers Weekly, and Theodore
Roosevelt, also of New York. They repre-.
sent the reform element of the Republican
party, some of whom declared that they
would not support Blaine if he were nom-
mated.
that combination had been made between
Blaine and Gen. John A. Logan, of Illinois,
whereby Blaine was to get the Logan votes
at the proper time The result justified the
assertion. To reward Logan the victorious
Blaine men nominated him for the second
place on their ticket, and he had no opposi-
ton.
The candidates are both well known 10
the country. Blaine is 81 years old and u
native of Pennsylvania. In 1854 he removed
to Maine and in 1858 was elected to the
Maine Legislature. In 1862 he went to Con-
gress and in 1869 was made speaker of the
House. In 1876 and 1880 he was candidate
for the nomination he has justsecured. In
1880 the fight was between Blaine and Grant
as this year it was between Blaine and Arthur.
Mr. Blaine was made Secretary of State by
President Garfield, but resigned when Arthur
became President
Blaine has been prominent figure before
the country for nearly quarter of a century,
but no one can point to any good work ac-
complished by him. On the contrary he
was active in keeping up sectional strife after
the war and his name aud character are tar
nished by connection with the Credit Mobil-
ier infamy, the Star route stealings and
numberless jobs whereby his influence has
been sold to enrich individuals and corpora
tons at the expense of the government.
In his brief career as Secretary Of State he
came near plungng the country into an un-
justiflable foreign war. His election would
open the door wide for rogues of all kinds,
and even with the present high tariff it is not
likely that any surplus would be left in the

Treasury, at the end his term. The charges
against Blaine are not merely the assertions
of political opponents, but are sustained by
abundant proof and are believed by thou
sands of Republicans.
Gen. John A. Logan was born in Southern
Illinois and is about So years of age He is
an llitcrate man and extremely vindiclive
towards all who sympathized with the South
during the war. In 1856 he was elected to
Congress rs Democrat, and when the war
broke out it is said he raised company of
he did not, for he afterwards raised regi-
ment for the Union army and entering the
army as colonel rose to the rank of major
general

The Republican Platform.

Doubtless if Mr.. Blaine felt certain of the
nomination he would have looked after the
platform adopted by the Republican conven-
ton, and very different one would proba-
bly, have been presented. AS it is, the work
of preparing it seems to have been left to
bungling hands and the result is IL silly at
tempt to hoodwink tho American people
with the most arrant demagogy and false
pretenccs. This is most apparent, perhaps,
in the tariff planks On this point the Re
publican party has backed completely down
from its high tariff principles and endeavors
to steal Democratic thunder by declaring for
n revision of their tariff. Their practice does
not accord with their professions for the Re-
publicans in Congress voted almost solidly
against even considering Mr.. Morrison's bill
to revise the tariff.
Again the platform, with brazen effrontery,
charges the Democratic party with failing to
reduce the immense surplus in the United
States treasury, in the face of the fact that
this surplus is the result of the enormous
taxation first imposed and ever since kept up
by the Republicans themselves. Their decla-
rations of n desire to tighten the burdens of
tariff taxation are as nsnccrc and meaning
less rs their pretended regard for labor, and
arc only intended to humbug the people.
No revision of the tariff will he made while
the Republicans are in power
1t must be admitted that the Democratic
and the Republican methods of reducing the
surplus in the treasury are entirely different.
The Democrats want To reduce the tariff
charges to a basis that will yield sufficient
amount for the proper uses of the govern
mcnt and no more. Tho Republican method
seems to he to eXtort all the money possible
from the people and appropriate it to all
kinds of questionable objects, while Mt the
same time Office holders like Col Burnside,
of the Post Office department, are doing
their utmost to dcplcte the treasury Ivy steal.
