Mr.. Blaine does not need defence by any

Mr.. Blaine does not need defence by any
body, but it is interesting that vigorous de-
fence against the charge of infidelity to the
republican cause is made for him by the
Sun Perhaps that journal considers that
proof of his zeal and efficiency as republi-
can will make Mr.. Blame weaker with its
readers, but it proceeds to show that the pre-.
else features Of Mr.. Baine's course for which
Mr. Gorham of California assails him are
those for which he has been most heartily ap-
precia.ed by the great majority of republic
cans. whose appreciation of them and of him
was shown by their support two years ago
A stranger in this country might think that
Mr.. Blaine was about the most active politi-
clan and unceasing self seeker in the United
States, to judge from the constant attacks
on him in hostile journals. Yet Americans
know tha Mr.. Blaine is a private citizen, who
holds no office, exerts no political power, is
making no effort in politics, and desires no
place for himself 1t is we'll enough known
that he honestly hopes the republican party
will find in some other person than himself a
successful candidate two years hence. But
the fact that such a man is SO continually as
sailed is peculiarly significant. Some people
seem to be much afraid of him.-N Y Trib-

The extent to which the vicious do c.
