Patrick Eean for Blaine

Patrick Egan, the recently elected
president OF the American branch of the
Irish land league, has addressed letter
to the Lincoln, Neb., Democrat, in reply
to some unwarranted structures on his
political opinions. The following is an
extract:
Before the late Boston convention of
the Irish National league had, as the
result of close observation and careful
research, made up my mind that there
existed no grounds on which the demo.
cratic party should hold any mortgage

Irishman. weighed with care and de.
liberation the merits of the two presi.
dental candidates, and I came to the
conclusion that, neither as an Irishmau
nor an adopted citizen of America, could
Mr.. Grover Cleveland have my support.
The case of Mr.. John Dewey. on which
you so persistently harp, and which you
have again and again referred as the
only ground of my opposition to Mr..
Cleveland, was only one of the many
objections which l entertained to that
gentleman. 1 did, indeed, consider the
treatment meted to Mr.. Devoy of the
very basest kind, and strong evidence of
either the hostility or contempt of Mr..
Cleveland for Irishmen OF national opin.

Times, the London Standard, the Lon.

of the entire English press. I objected
to him as the pet candidate Of Puck and
Harper's Weekly; as the author OF
innumerable vetoes in the interest OF
the great monopolies, and as man who
had, as I believed, proved himself the
enemy Of every just right to the toiling
millions. objected to Mr.. Cleveland
because I felt proud of the country oi
my adoption, and because I felt that, in
the words of the Boston Pilot-a

Blaine because, from long observation
had come to regard him as the very
opposite of all this, as an American oi

statesman fitted by nature, culture and
experience to fill with credit to the
country and to himself the position o
