THEODORE ROOSEVELT QUOTES Mr.. BLAINE IN
ANSWER TO GOVERNOR CORNELL.
To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: Like many other Republicans wasa good
deal amused and a little irritated at Governor
CornelPs remarks about Mr. Evarts, made in an in
terview reported in your paper. as regards certain
offhe statements of fact I'm especial that regarding
Mf. Evarts's position in the GubornatoTial CAM
paign between Dix AID Tildcn). happen to know
that Governor Cornell is misinformed; and the
whole piece seemed to me to come with peculiarly
bad grace from one who owed his election as Cover
nor in 1879, more than anything else. to the efforts
of Mr.. Evarts, which succeeded IN partially remOv
ingthe bitter anger and aiscontent that Mr. COrnelPs
nomination had aroused among many of the best
mon in the Republican party.
How widely Mr. COrnelis estimate of Mr.. Evarts's
Republicauism differs from that of Mr.. Blaine, who
certainly ought TO be able to speak on the matter
can be seen by the following quotation from the
speech of Mr. Blaine at the Denonico dim
ner in New-York reported in your columns
of October 80 last. l quote verbatim !;
Mr.. Blaine spoke as follows:

Mr. Samuel p. Warren for the weekly opportunity whoh
he gives them under the Gothic roof OF Grace Church. to

already mentioned, Mr. Warren has entered upon his
third series OF organ rectals He plays on thursday
afternoons at o'clock and gives variety to his enter
tanment by introducing appropriate vocal selections
His schemes are serious and appeal chiefly to such as are
able to appreciate highclass organ music For NIP
