Blaine's Grand Canvass.
PHILADELPHIA, October 29th.-The Press
Scranton, Penn, special correspondent
says: Two great cities of the Wyoming
Valley Yesterday afternoon and evening
opened their arms of welcome and shouted
their voice of greeting 10 Blaine. The twin
demonstrations, despite the adverse wealth.
er, were marked by unbounded enthusiasm
and furnished abundant evidence that
Lackawanna and Luzerne prefer Beaver
and will be for Blaine in 1885, as they were
in 1884. The route hither from Pottsville
was beset by rain, but at every step crowds
were waiting in the mud and were ready
to burst out with cheers for Blaine The
end of the tour tonight warrants every
confidence that Blaine has not travelled
over nine hundred miles in his native
State without making assurances doubly
sure and sealing the certainty Of rousing
Republican victory Tuesday next.
BLAINE FOB PRESIDENT.
1t was asked ore of Pennsylvania's most
prominent politicians whether the zeal he
has shown in the management of this Sec
ond Blaine tour meant that he was for
Blaine in 1888. 1t is true,' he said,
have heretofore opposed Blaine's nomina-
ton in every Convention, State and ma
tional, for ten years, but | now say that
only Blaine himself can prevent his nomi-
nation IN 1888. No private citizen in the
world ever received such an ovation as has
Blaine during this tour in Pennsylvania.
Workingmen have come up from the mines
and out of their factories and stood in the
rain to cheer him. | say that the United
Republican party ought to give him a
unanimous denomination and serve a no.
tice to George William Curtis and the rest
of the Mugwumps, that as the United Re-
publican party it will stand or fall. and
that there is no longer any separate Blaine
party within the solid Republican ranks u
'sWhat do you mean when you say
that only Blaine can defeat his nomina-
ton ?"
His name is on every Republican
tongue, as Tilden's was on every Demo
cratic from 1876 to 1880, but yet Tilden
defeated his own nomination in 1880.
mean that, unless he himself declares lie
will not accept it. his nomination in 1883
is certain"
Not Humbug, but a Demagogue.
New YORK, October 29th.-The Herald
says editorially: We observe some hollow
person is asking the question, is George a
humbug" We will answer him No,
George is not humbug. He is a sincere,
earnest, and intelligent man. He has been
misled into running for an Office in which
he could do nothing to farther the ideas he
has forcibly put forward in his books, and
where he would be in fact wanting. The
best fortune that can happen to him and to
the reforms he has at heart, will be his de-
feat but he ought to be sent to Congress.
There he would have a chance to advance
his ideas, and he has ability enough to
make career as a legislator. No, George
is not a humbug."
The Government Mule Outranked.
NEW YORK, October 29th.-The CONNER
cidl AdUertiser says this afternoon: 1.-The
following story, for the truth of which Mr..
Roosevelt will vouch, is in On last Friday
O'Donovan Rosa called upon Roosevelt
and offered to furnish him the hearty sup
port of his paper, and the vote of the secret
societies that he could control, if Mr.
Roosevelt would give him two checks, a
small one for the cause of Ireland, and 2
much larger one for the personal use of
Rosa. The check for the cause was to
be dated after the election, so that Mr..
Roosevelt might cancel it if he were not
elected The check for Mr. Rosa, on the
contrary, was to be dated properly, SO that
il could be used at once"
