Mr.. BIaIne's Letter.

Whatever room there may have been for
doubt as to Mr.. Blaine's intentions regarding
the Presidential nomination before his letter
to Mr.. Whitelaw Reid, none is left now
Mr.. Blaine says In that letter clearly and ex
plicitly, that he cannot accept the nomina-
ton If rendered. When Mr.. Blaine,s Flor
ence letter appeared 1t was generally accept
ed as withdrawing him finally from the can
vass. But latterly there has grown up a
feeling, encouraged by his enemies because
they believed 1t would discredit him, and by
some Of his warmest friends who believed
that he was the strongest candidate the Re-
publicans could nominate, that in spite Of
his letter he would still accept If the nomina-
ton was rendered with substantial unanimi-
ty. But Mr.. Blaine sees more clearly than
many of his friends. He sees that If he
should now be nominated, after seeming at
least to have encouraged considerable num-
Der of distinguished Republicans, some of
them his warmest admirers, to contest for
the Republican nomination with the under
standing that he was not in the field, that
bad feeling would inevitably result, which
would jeopardize the success Of the party in
the coming election. 1t would have been i'm
possible under the circumstances which ex-
listed after the publication of the Florence let
ter to nominate Mr.. Blaine without creating
bitterness which would have lasted through
the campaign. Mr.. Sherman's friends, Mr..
Gresham's friends and the friends Of all the
other candidates, to a greater or less degree
would have felt that they had been ill-used,
whether with good reason or not we do not
say, but they would have felt that way, and
the consequence would have been suiking In
tents, which could but have had very bad
effect upon Republican prospects in the cam

1t behooyes every Democratic pilgrim who
turns his face towards st. Louis to learn
how TO sing. The national convention of
1884 concluded its exercises by singing ''Auld
Lang Syne," a most significant choice as
events have fallen out. But the last act of
the st. Louis conyocation will be different.
The delegates may sing what they please
during the early stages of the reunion, but
when their work is done they will be re-
stricted to "Coronation:"

Much has been said about the damaging eff
feet which the prohibition of the sale Of
liquor is imagined to have upon the "busi-
ness interests" of the places affected. Plen-
ty Of rum, as 1t was argued in Atlanta, meant
plenty of business. for men of course, as
well as for the devil. In Maine this interest
ing financial doctrine is not extensively
preached; but there are some who hold 1t,
especially in reference to some of the water
ing places that are springing up so plenti-
fully along our coast. The guests that are
gathered there, 1t is argued, need something
else besides water to make their stay de-
lightful, and il the Maine watering places
are to be well patronized they must furnish
it If they would hold their OWE with rivals
in other States. No better answer could be
made to this argument than is furnished by
the present condition Of the famous resort at
Long Branch. Only a few years ago Long
Branch was a celebrated watering place for
the better class of people. Persons of refine
ment sought 1t as pleasant retreat. where
they and their families could spend the sum-
mer months. Many large and costly i'm
provements were made, and locality al
ready bountifully blessed BY nature gave
fair promise of soon becoming the leading
summer resort of America. Suddenly its
prosperity waned and its reputation dimin-
ished. Seventy of the leading citizens have,
in formal statement, laid the blame for this
state of things upon the free sale OF liquor
with its attendant disorders The rum may
have made business of certain sort at
Long Branch, but it is running it as resort
for the respectable people who, in the end,
must be relied upon to support any summer
resort

The Legislature Of Massachusetts has adj
joined. after the shortest session since 1882.
The most important result Of the session is
the enactment Of the ballot reform act, by
which the Australian system of voting is es-
tablished in Massachusetts. The advocates
of this system claim that it does away with
the intimidation of voters and the buying Of
votes, at the same time diseouraging and
taking away the occupation Of political
''heelers." Trial in Massachusetts, will DEM
onstrate whether the act will do all that is
claimed for it. If that trial is satisfactory
other States will undoubtedly follow Massa-
chusetts' example.

If the statements which correspondent of
the Boston Herald makes regarding the pro-
ceedings at the Lewiston caucus to select
delegates to the Republican State convention
be correct the delegates owe their selection
largely TO Democratic repeaters. Republi-
cans are prepared to cheerfully submit to
the decision of the convention provided it
be free from any faint of unfairness or fraud.
But they are not likely to relish nomin-
alton due in any degree to the services Of
Democratic repeaters. Concerning the
facts of the Lewiston caucus we have no in
formation except that which appears in the
Herald. If that be correct then the Repub-
licans of that city should hold another
caucus, and take pains to guard it against in
vasion by Democrats.
