Prudence that May be Dangerous.

If the nomination of Blaine is one
of the political probabilities, the New
York Evening Post is pursuing a
course poorly calculated to aid the sue
cess OF its party, by republishing the
old charges against the Maine states
man as member of congress and as
speaker of the house, among which the
Mulligan transaction is not the least
conspicuous. The freshening up of
the facts connected with Blaines pro-
tiigate political career, by republican
journal of such standing as the Eoen-
ing Post, could not fail to have
damaging effect upon his prospects in
the event of his nomination. But
doubtless that paper believes that a
greater degree of prudence can BE-
shown by interposiug those charges as
bar to his nomination than by re-
naming silent in the preliminary stages
OF the contest and running the risk OF
the damage that would unavoidably
follow from his unsavory reputation
after he should once be fastened on the
party as its candidate. 1t is reason
able to believe that the same considera-
ton induces Harper's Weekly aud
other republican journals of repute to
publish elaborate articles in which the
impradence of nominating a political
character like Blaine is distinctly port
rayed.
The popularity which the Mulligan
statesman has developed among the
rank and file of the party, springing
from sentiment that is real although
misplaced, is factor in the republican
presidential problem that is giving the
thoughtful and better portion of the
party a great deal of concern. Pos
sessing the attractive qualities that
belong to consummate demagogueism,
he has succeeded in enlisting the sym
pathies OF the larger part of the mass
of his party, which feeling has been
strengthened by the relief that he has
been made the victim of unfair treat
ment by party managers who are not
popular with the average class of re-
publican voters This has been demon
strated whenever an opportunity TO
express their preference has not been
interfered with by the management of
cooler heads capable of comprehending
the fact that his nomination would be
an invitation to defeat.
Pennsylvania furnishes the most
striking instance of the Blaine mania,
and it was only by the superior mani
pulation of those who are opposed to
him either for personal reasons or from
a conviction that his nomination would
insure the defeat of the party, that it
was so managed that a full delegation
will not go 70 Chicago bowling for ''the
plumed knight 1t he is defeated in
the convention, which the more con-
siderate leaders will make every effort
10 have done, il will be at the risk Of
offending his devoted followers who
will count il as another injustice to
their favOrite by an influence uDpopu-
lar with them and which they will be
to resent at the election. Ii
he should succeed in making the nomi-
nation republican papers like the New
York Eoening Post, Harper's Week
ky and others of equal repule, are
publishing the reasons why
his election TO the presidency would be
alike dangerous and disgraceful TO the
country.-PatriOt
