MIR. BLAINE's HEALTH.
Incidents Showing that He Is in Reasonably
Good Health,

Good Health.
f. d. d., in Cincinnati commercial Gazette.
1t is, perhaps a work of supererogation to say
anything further in reply to the continual asser-
tons Of the Democratic papers concerning Mr.
Blanels health and the prospect that he will
never take his seat even if elected, and that he
is intractable and makes u great row every day
etc.
There 10 absolutely nothing at all in all these
statements. In the beginning Of the trip it was
decided not to admit representatives of the Dem
ocratic papers TO the private car. The gather
ing in that car was Of the nature of a continuous
Republican conference among the leaders of the
party and just as appropriately might the re-
porters of such papers as the New York World
Chicago News and Cincinnati Enquirer be ad-
mitted freely to the private conferences at the
Republican national headquarters in New York
Several correspondents, thus refused followed
tho train. catching up with it at night and keep
ing in the vicinity and sending out all the rub
bish and misrepresentation possible.
A Chicago paper has had columns about Mr.
Blaiues sickness and sufferings. and the terrible
trouble the committee have lad to get him to 70
where they wished, and how they have started
trains a direction opposite to that he ordered
and in which he thought he was going. 1t has
been painfully detailed how he refused to go
from here to Illinois, and how a railroad hand
was bribed $25 to start the train west instead of
east and let Mr.. Blaine find it out when it was
too late.
I'd like TO see anybody undertake to play any
such game on Mr. Blaine. Mr.. Blaine leads and
directs, and controls everything. and there has
not been man connected with the trip who
would dare to attempt such performance
The morning he left here LLafayettel he was
suffering from an infiamed eye, having been in
jured by a stick or stone that flew up the
train was leaving small station below Terre
Haute, and in the free raw wind of that day
and too sudden change from the warm car to
the outside he caught severe cold.
This was the extent of the rapid dissolution
described by the Democratic reporters, and his
great kick" and ''crankiness" here consisted Of
a notification that he would take little more
time for sleep in the morning and to arrange
things accordingly
What Mr. Blaine has done and gone through
in the last five weeks is sufficient answer to all
these remarks
Meanwhile there are no rumors touching the
physical or mental condition of Mr.. Cleveland
that need cause any anxiety
