The taking up of the Morrison Horizontal

though . sort of skeleton victory for the free
traders, is. nevertheless, . damper upon the
Randall faction and upon the prospects OF
democratic harmony. The discussion which
must now necessarily ensue, will bring up.
most likely, all the bitter feeling and resent
ment of the past, and much more that has
been dormant. Furthermore, the victory
fixes, in a sense, the status of the demo-
cratic party 10 the present campaign. All
the Ohio platforms imaginable cannot wipe
out the significance of that vote, especially
after the speech made by Judge Kelley OF
Pennsylvania almost Immediately following
it. That speech, if circulated broadly
amongst the laboring classes, cannot fail TO
produce & wonderful effect in the coming
campaign. Every workingman cannot fail to
see that his wages and liberties are in danger
if this free-trade idea is to become practical
in this country. Nothing is clearer.
The debate over this bill will probably last
for weeks, unless the bill is killed by a
majority vote which can strike out the enact
ing clause. L. j. B.

WASHINGTON, April Il.

WAsHISGToS, April Il.
To The Editor of the Renne5ec Journal:
Political events are shaping themselves
shrewd observer can trace the lines quite
distinctly. The district system in electing
delegates to the republican national conven-
ton at Chicago has brought out the popular
State conventions. Therefore an earlier
estimate can be made than in former presi-
Dental years. Your correspondent does not
pretend to be a prophet nor a son of prophet,
but tries to take his cue mostly from realities
first, and calculations afterwards, ending up,
OF course, with some genuine Yankee guesses.
But with no egotistc feeling he will remind
your readers that in the last presidential year
he came within 90 votes of giving the num-
Der Blaine would receive on the first ballot
nearer, perhaps, than any other calculator.
and therefore trusts that he NAV be permitted
to prognosticate for the same person again
for it is certain sure that James G. Blaine of
Maine il looming up wonderfully, and that
his name will again 20 before the convention
for the nomination. unless he, himself, or
some peculiarly unforeseen event orders
otherwise. In making the annexed calcula-
ton. careful $50 far as possible) estimate
has been made, without bias, and with q
desire to be fair to all other candidates;
and while the estimate may vary as to some
States il will be found in the end that the
general result will not vary much, i. e., what
is gained in one State may be lost in another,
and rice rersa, but that general balance will
be held. Herewith is appended the statement,
which also contains the first delegate vote in
the last convention

In making this calculation your correspon-

taking these from MFR. Blaine altogether
would still leave him $50 votes in the con-
veution, and if the States which are mentioned
as nearly unanimous vote as unit, this loss
would be nearly balanced. But from a
knowleige of quite a number of persons
elected from the South as uupiedged delegates,
ID seems probable that ~ votes from that
section Is very modest estimate. 1t is quite
likely that both the Malone and Dezendorf
delegates will be admitted II the Chicago
convention and the vote counted in proper

would get II and Arthur ~. Missouri, except

District of Columbia, contrary to expecta-

alternstes is for Blaine. 1t would SEEM
therefore, that James G.. Blaine is likely to
go into the convention with a support ranging
from sos to $50 votes, or possibly with a suf-
fcient number to make . majority.
The Sunday Capital of this city, hitherto
an administration advocate, said, in its last
number. that Blaine would be nominated on
the first ballot 1t seems, however. more
probable that the second ballot will be the
deciding one, as many of those who have
been pledged As to the first ballot, will lean
towards Blaine after performing their pledged
duty. As the situation now looks, the con-
test is between Blaine and Arthur-Logan
and Edmunds having already been distanced
in the race.

come in search of particular book for
