All republicans should read and consider
this significant uttersnce from the New
York Tribune which paper Is, more than
any other, entitled to speak for the friends
Of Mr.. Blaine:
Halt one moment, Mr.. Boomer. 1t Is
perfectly legitimate for you TO say that you
prefer the nomination of Mr.. A, or Mr.. c,
or Mr.. Y, Y, z, but you have no business
to say that "Mr. Blaine told his party that
IL ought not TO nominate him." He did tell
his party that he did not want 1t to nomin-
ate him-which Is q very different thing.
Strict truth Is desirable,san never more de-
sirable than now. The earnest men Of the
Chicago Blaine club, whose figures indicate
q clear majority for Mr.. Blaine on the sec
ond ballot were telegraphed the other day,
do not appear to consider that there may
never be a second ballot il their i'm
pressions are right regarding the jndg-
ment of delegates. The frank and friendly
comparison of opinions which will precede
any balloting whatever. is not unlikely to
bring about considerable harmony OF pur-
pose and action. IL that conference dis
closes that more than a majority of the
convention think, and represent republican
constituents who think, that Mr.. Blaine Is
the strongest candidate who can be nomi-
mated, it il quite likely that there may never
be more than one ballot. But this confer
encs must be frank and friendly, and il 1t
discloses that majority of the convention
believe, and represent constituents who be-
lleve, that some other candidate would be
stronger, the most Difference to that opinion
will be shown by those republicans who
prefer Mr.. Blaine.

Senator Sherman is doing his part toward
properly observing Ohio's centennial year,
by having introduced in congress measure
providing for the erection Of a monument
to our General George Rogers Clark, who,
with Simon Kenton, is closely connected

and victory over the hostile Indians the
centennial of which we observed, on the
battle ground, west of the city, in 1882,
which was the first centennial anniversary
to be observed in Ohio. The proposed
monument ought to be erected on the bat
