BIaime's Weakness.

Notwithstanding't the presidential
boom which MIR. Blaine has been sc
perSistentIy boosting for himself,
the Chicago Herald thinks it likely
that the Statesman from Maine will
get left, Says the Herald:
Strong ouly inlhose States which
vote for amy Republican, Blaine's
weakness lies wllere Republican
strength is a necessity. The situa
ton is not likely TO he changed
materially in 1883. In 1876 aud
every four years since the real bat
lie ground has not been Illinois or
Pennsylvania, but New York, In
diaUa, Connecticut aud New Jersey.
10 win The Republicans must have
The preSideutials electors OF New
York, and would not be quite safe
without those of all tho others.
But the Indications are that as a
positive candidate Blaine is weaker
ia every one OF those States than
be was two years ago. Yet the
States which can do little toward
determining the election are his
most enthusiastic opponents aud
will again seek his nomination. De
will be in the lead. Even the Lii.
nois delegation, presenting, as II
will, the name of Logan, will stand
ready to go over 10 Blame tine mo.
ment Logan'S candidacy is pro
nounced hopeless. There will be a
struggle, of course, against tue re
nomination of the men who led the
Republican party to its first defeat
in Il quarter of Il century, aud uh-
less Blaiue be nominated ON the
first ballot conservative Republic
cans will cast about, as all factions
did ut Cincinnati III 1876, 10 defeat
him. and as he and others united
in 1880 to defeat Grant. This SIT
nation, if it occur, will bring to
tbs front some unexeeptional man
who has taken no step toward Sc
curing a delegation even IRON bis

BIaine's Blu ter.

WIMLINGToN, Pa, October 19.-James
6. Blaine and party left Harrisburg for
the west at s O'Clock this morning.
When Lewiston was reached large
crowd assembled and Blaine spoke tor
about fifteen minutes. His remarks
were mainly on the subjects of tariff
and prohibition.
AtTyrone city Blaine made a brief
speech of the same tenor as those at the
previous stopping places. At Altoona,
the arrival of the train was signalled by
the firing of cannons. The guests were
escorted to the base ball grounds, where
10000 people, mostly workingmen, had
gathered. Blaine was hoarse, but spoke
briefly. At Johnstown and Greensburg,
Blaine bowed his acknowledgements,
but declined to speak because OF hoarse-
ness.
PTTTsBSRG, October 19.-The train
bearing Blaine arrived here tonight.
His voice was so husky that he de-
ciined to respond to calls for speech.
The party was met at Huntington by
a large and demonstrative crowd. In
the course of his remarks, Blaine
characterized as the height of impu-
dence the request of the Democratic
pa ers that he state that while the
Democratic party was in power
the national prosperity continued.
and that the warnings OF the Repub-
lican orators of danger to the industrial
system of the country, because of
Democratic supremacy, had been falsi-
fed. Fortunately for the Republican
party, ne sad, it is not pos
sible, however, to obliterate cur
rent history. After the Democratic
party tried FOR six long months
at the last session of Congress, to break
down the protective tariff, they failed,
and it is in consequence of that failure
and because Of the maintenance of the
tariff that we ind our industries spring
forward with renewed activity all
over the country. Speaking OF
the civil service, Blaine said
the Democrats wanted the civil
service patterned after that of England.
This he proved by reference to the
statements that Lord Randolph
Churchill was one of the excessive stats
of high salary, short hours, extraVag-
ant pensions and general incompe-
tency.
The speech was followed by general
handshakIng.
