How the Country is soAdifying for
the National Repub-
lican Ticket:
Campaign Notes.

At republican senatorial convention held at
Marshfeld, Wis, Hon. @. NJ G. King, of Neills-
vile was nominated for state senator:
New York Tribune: The great fact which
the New letters establish is that Mr.. Blaine was
the victim of Warren Fisher, deceived by him
from the start, induced to involve himself and
friends in an undertaking in which they all
suffered, crippled by the refusal Of Fisher to
keep his word, persuaded when disaster came
to borrow money for the enterprise upon his
personal credit, and finally left in the lurch by
his professed friend who reasoned that Mr.:
Blaine being public man, could never afford
to demand what was justly due him, for fear
of scandal.
Augusta Special to Chicago Tribune: 1t is
woll known that tho letters have been hawked
about for somo time with view Of getting Mr..
Blane's friends to stop their publication, but
;hey have refused to take any notice Of these
offers and are conSratulating themselves now
shat tho democrats have published the letters.
Everybody here agrees that the letters are the
best kind of tribute to Mr.. Blaine's honesty and
fidelity to his friends. His distress, because he
was unable to raise $25 600 to pay a loan he
had secured for the railroad company, proves
conclusivey the falsehood about his being
millionaire, while his strenuous efforts to keep
the railroad company out Of financial difficulty
that he would be no deadhead in the enterprise.
Hecretary Mcpherson says, with relation to
the new Muligan letters, that it seems to him
= asif Nix Blaine and Fisher had had misun-
ders!an'hnS about their business transactions,
each claiming money was due him, and that
was alTtllcro was in tho whole matter.
''IEo people won't be influenced by small
natter of that kind" he says, 'and I would
not be surprised if the publication would be
used AZ was the 359 in Garield's campaign.
Secretary Mcpherson asserts very conf
lontially that the Republicans will carry Ohio.
He gets large mail every morning, and says
40 finds in it every reason for encouragement
Most of tho letters received are requests for
init tariff talk, and are accompanied with the
assertion that this question is exciting the ut
most interest The result in Maine, they say
nad an electrical effect upon the state, and
where was idlcncss before there is great
iyity now. Maine having been disposed of,
fis has became the battlefield, and about the
September states. The Republicans claim
that whatever tho result IN October may be,
Ohio will go Republican in November, as
Blaine is at least 10000 stronger than his
ticket in the state
Mr.. Paul West a prominent lawyer Of Bos-
ton, in a letter to the Boston Journal, says he
made tho acquaintance of J. H. Mulligan, of
MulliSan-lettc notoricty, in 1879, while he was
acting in law case with Loheir L. Welch,
Mulligan's lawyers. Mr. West says he was
igrant man ut tho time, and asked Mulligan's
opinion about Mr.. Blaine. Mulligan said he
did not consider Mr.. Blaine a corrupt man;
also, that he believed no never sold his vote
nordid he ever use his influence as speaker or
congressman to influence legislation in which he
might be personally Interested
The Cincinnati Commercial Gazette includes
notice of life of Hendricks as follows:
He is well known in this region as a mean
copperhead in war, and foxy, ambitious trick
ster in peace. After howling fraud" four
years, he spoiled the old tickot by grecdily
reaching for tho first place himself. -Four
Years later he took the second place to a pro-
vincial politician, and he would doubtless take
anything rather than be retired to private life.
This is not quotation from his ''life," for we
have not read it. No doubt Patent Office re-
ports would be thrilling compared with it.
The Irishmcn of Birchtlae, Mimi, to the
number of forty, have taken steps to organize
Blaine and Logan club. The Irishmen of
hat vicinity arc enthusiastic in their support
of the Republican nominee for president.
At regular meeting of tho federation of 10
Dor unions held in Washington, resolutions
were adopted to tho effect that Gov. Cleveland
has shown himself to be bitter enemy of the
workingmen and thcr interests by vetoing all
the bills which the workingmen have for years
boon trying to have enacted into laws in New
York. Therefore the workingmen should aid
in every honorable way to defeat "the vassal of
corporations and the servant of capitalists"
in his candidacy for president Of tho United
States.
New York Tribune: We have high authority
u
41ounced his intention of supporting Gov.
Cleveland and good reasons that he will vote
for Mr.. Blaine We call upon tho World to
prove its assertion to the contrary
Prof LOWS Boss, the distinguished astrono-
NOR and director of the Dudley observatory,
at Albany N Y, will mako several campaign
speeches for Blaine md Logan. Prof. Boss
has becn for many years an intimate friend Of
, Mr.. Blaine. During his visit to Chill on the
transit Of Venus expedition he became thor
oughly familiar with the benefcent results Of
Mr.. Blaino's South American policy.
John Finnerty, congressman from the Irish
American district of Chicago in an article in
lis paper to tho Citizen, dsclares very en-
phatically for Blaine and Logan. He says the
election Of Cleveland would be misfortune
and curse.
The Kenebec, Me-, Journal contains the fol-
lowing: "Mr. Blaine, accompanied by his wife,
arrived at Bar Harbor. In answer to a reporter
who called at his residence to ascertain if he
wished to say anything in regard to the letters
given the public by Fisher and Muligan, Mr.:
Blaine replied his only desire was that every vot
cr in the United Stacs might read the letters for
himself and not form his Judgment from edito- |
rial misrepresentation in partisan journals
There was not a word in tho ettprs, Mr.. Blaine
added, which was not entirely consistent with |
tho most scrnpulous integrity and honor He
hoped every Republican paper in tho United
States would publish the letters in full"
Senator Hoar on Blaine.
