Mr.. BIaine's Speech.

Mr.. James G. Blaine has emerged from the
rather quiet life he has been leading since his
defeat for the Presidency, and signalized his
re-entrance in politics by carefully prepared
speech, delivered at Sebago Lake, in Maine
on Tuesday. Mr.. Blaine is one of the most
brilliant and accomplished orators in the
country and his speeches are always interest.
ing. On this occasion, however, his speech
seemed to lack the fire and earnestness OF
some of his former efforts. He announced
boldly that the Republican party is thorough.
ly united for a protective tariff, taking nc
note of the pledge made in the Republican
platform of 1884 in favor of revision and
reform of the existing high tariff. The latter
he assumes, is the true policy for the benefit
of labor, but does not explain why wages
have dropped down almost to a starvation
point under the operations of tariff which
taxes the many for the benefit of the few.
A large portion of his speech, also, was de.
voted to the fisheries question and he crit.
cizes Secretary Bayard with undue severity
for making an advantageous treaty with
England whereby trouble was avoided on the
Canadian fishing grounds until Congress
could take action on the matter.
He also declares that there was no adequate
cause for the demonstration against Mexico
If, on the other hand, Secretary Bayard had
not taken prompt steps in opposition to the
principle asserted and acted upon by Mexico
namely, her right to make laws applicable in
the United States, Mr.. Blaine would have
been one of the first to condemn him for his
hardness in protecting American rights
Very few sensible people in the United States
desire war with Mexico, but no patriotic
American is willing to submit to arrogance
and insult from Mexico or any other power
The thing that gives Mr.. Blaine the deep.
est concern is the third party Prohibition
movement. He uses his most earnest efforts
to win back to the Republican fold the tenn
perance men Of Maine, who do not hesitate,
he says, to declare that "the Republican party
must be killed." because, while claiming to
be the friend of prohibition it has over and
over again been false to its promises He
said the "third party prohibitionists" wanted
"party of their own just small enough to
have no effect at all, or ifpossible, just large
enough to throw the State into the hands Of
the Democratic party"
No wonder Mr.. Blaine is alarmed at the
condition of affairs in his State. Neal Dow
and his friends have cut loose entirely from
the Republican party, and Mr. Blaine sees
that triangular political duel must be
fought, He has, besides, direct personal
interest in the success of the Republican
ticket by an overwhelming majority. A Re.
publican defeat in Maine, this fall, either by
the Democrats or by the Prohibtionists
would mean that Mr.. Blaine's friends would
have to take back seat in the Republican
Presidential convention of 1888. 1t is life
and death struggle with him.

The trial of the Chicago anarchists end,
ed last Friday, with verdict of guilty in
each case. August Spies, Michael Schwab
Samuel Fielder, Albert r. Parsons, Adolph
Fischer, George Engel and Louis Lngg were
condemned to be hanged and Oscar w. Neebe
to fifteen years in the Penitentiary. The
crime for which these men were condemned
was committed on the night of May 4th. A
meeting ofanarchists was held in Chicago,
at which Spies, Parsons and others made in
tlammatory speeches, urging the mob to
murder and plumber the capitalists; to des-
troy the police and burn down the property
of all who opposed their bloodthirsty teach
ings. The gathering became very violent
and when the police appeared on the scene
dynamite bomb was hurled among them, kill
ing seven policemen and one citizen and
wounding many others. These men have
had fair trial and justice demands that
they should pay the penalty for the evil that
has grown out of their teachings.
