Mr.. Blaine's visit to New York is OF
no Significance. He is not candi--

best and strongest man. they can
nominate him and he will be elected
and should the party offer him the
nomination l have no doubt he will
accept; but he is not in New York
to work for it. His reception in
Pennsylvania and New Jersey was
very hattering, and it shows the hold
he has on the people"
