secoped in. But they have an idea out in
California that Judge Of the Supreme
Court ought not to NEEDLE with politics.
And they had an additional idea that IL
Judge did have right to become cam
dida;e for political hOnors Judge FIELD
was not the man they wanted.
So when the Democratic convention
met at Stockton the other day they BACKED
one eye for FELD by passing resolution
declaring for TILDES But according to
Western ideas the black eye given the Judge
might not prevent the other eye from peep
ing into the situation a little too far, so they
went to work and bunged that one up BY
passing a resolution with a good deal OF
enthusiasm declaring that California Dem
Ocrats would not support FIELD under any
contingency.
There is something very eommendable
in this way of doing business. There is no
sense in beating around the bush, and If
they didn't want FIELD they did perfectly
right in saying so. But Judge FIELDS Or
gan-the Alta California-is mad about it,
so mad that it declares FIELD will be the
next President in spite of California. Elk
actly how the Alta California expects to
make President of Judge FIELD, when he
has no votes to back him, is not apparent.
But that is Western sgIe-crisp,pl.cky and
to the point.

The Republican blunder at Chicago az
fords the Democrats an opportunity such as
they have not before in the last quarter OF
q century and which they can fail to i'm
prove only BY making greater or an equal
blunder
The OppOoition to the Chicago ticket is
unparalleled in the history of the Republi-
can party. There has been certain
amount of disappointment at the result of
every National Republican Convention.
But it has soon disappeared without devel
Oping into any deep rooted or durable OPP
position.
This year the case is different. The dis
satisfaction with the action of the conven-
ton has taken the shape of widespread,
determined and formidable movement on
the part of large body of Republicans to
work and vote against the ticket nominated
This, it is significant to note, is not the pro-
test of Independents merely, but Of pro
nounced Republicans who have hitherto
been used to giving their party loyal sup
port. There is, in fact, a revolt, widespread
and serious within the party itself There
is host of Republicans, and of independ-
euts with Republican sympathies, who are
determined not to vote for Blaine. They
are ready to vote the Democratic ticket. il
the Democrats present man worthy o!
their support They are now waiting with
interest to see if the party will have the
wisdom to take this very sensible course.

A WILD WESTERN WAY.

There is something to admire in the reg
ular Western style of going about any
thing. There is a frankneSs and an honest
dash that is really captivating. This pecu-
liar style was never better illustrated than
in the late Democratic State Convention in
California. Mr.. Justice FIELD of the Su-
preme bench, has been a Presidential
Aye" for several years. Mr.. FIELD is
very wealthy and is citizen of California,
He holds position of Associated Justice of
the Supreme Court Of the United States.
Four years ago Judge FIELS conceived the
idea that he ought TO be nominated as a can
didate for the Presidency, and it is said the
political bummers who managed the Judges
futile canvass for him got away with a good
deal of his surplus gold dust without bring
ing the aspiring Judge within reach Of the
nomination. The Judge mad notion that
he would have better lnck this time, and so
exalted was his opinion Of himself that he
actually conceived the idea that he was
stronger man than TILDEN.
il occurred to the Judge that the first i'm
rortant step was to secure his own State
delegation, and with that accomplished he
would 90 booming along from State to

Blaine and West Virginia.


Whenever the Blaine faction becomes dis
couraged over the prospect Of carrying New
York it adopts the sourgrapes consolation
that it can elect it's man without New
York. If Skepticism refuses to concede all
the remaining northern states to Blaine, it
sill insists that it will secure a majority of
the electoral college by breaking into the
solid south When asked to name the south
ern states from which it can hope for aid, it
replies West Virginia and North Carolina.
When pressed for the grounds of its claim
of support from the latter state it is forced
TO confess it has none. The plurality for
Hancock in North Carolina in 1880 was
1926. As for West Virginia, Mr.. Blaine's
claims rest upon the pleasant fiction that
Steve Elkins can overcome a Democratic
plurality of II, l4S in 1880 BY the simple in
tiuence ofhis personal acquaintance and the
power of Blaine's business interests in the
State. As matter of fact. the influence OF
Steve Elkins upon the politics and politi-
clans Of West Virginia does not extend be-
yond the limits Of the Republican party.

force the $50 employees of the Elk Garden
mines to vote for Blaine, but they would
hardly suffice TO change the result in one
district, let alone the State. HMr. Blaine's
friends have no more valid reasons for be-
lieving that he can carry some Of the doubt
full Northern States than for hoping that he
can secure the electoral vote Of West Vir-
ginia, they had better advise him to resume
his literary labors The fight for Blaine
fhis year will be confined to New York,
Massachusetts, Connecticut, New Jersey,
New Hampshire, Ohio, Indiana and Wis
consin. The Democratic nominations may
extend the limits of this not very restricted
battlefield to include Illinois and some Of
the Pacific States. ...
