NEW YORK FIGURES.
Biaine's Nomination Certain-The
Vice Presidency

New YORK, May 24.-Mr. Blaine's
friends in this part of the country have
ceased altogether to discuss the presi-
dental nomination from any other
standpoint than that of his certain
nomination. They figure up to-day
over 420 votes as certain to be cast for
him on the first formal ballot, which is
more than a nomination. They show
up their claims by citing the states in
which they expect the votes, and
although other candidates dispute the
figures, there is no one willing to stand
to the front and tell whether the
figures can be challenged.
The discussion has drifted off onto
the vice presidential nomination, which
is rapidly crystalliZing around Warner
Miller, of New York. At first blush
this looks like neglect of the West
that would breed disaster. but it seems
to have been the suggestion of
Western men, who declare that
cabinet offices are better for Western
states than the empty hOnOrs of the vice
presidency. Indiana Democrats could
probably give them some points on that.
Gen. Harrison, of Indiana, bas been the
favorite Western name coupled With
Blaine's name until recent period.
The candidacy or Judge Gresham for
president, bOlstered up by sister state,
has destroyed both men. Senator Alli-
son is known to prefer the senate. Gov.
Foraker, Gen. Alger, and Warner
Miller are the names upon which dis
cussion centers. Miller is soldier of
good record, who left prOfessorship
for the army. He is warmly espoused
as the champion of the agricultural in
tereSts in the senate. He is a promi-
nent Methodist, and might thereby stay
the prohibition tide. Moreover he is in
the pivotal state. The argument in his
favor is that by his nomination the Re-
publicans in all the other states that
Blaine carried in 1854 will be assured
that it is the purpose of the party to
carry New York. In that belief they
will work all the harder to carry their
own states.
