THE CHICAGO FAILURE.

why the Party of Doodle. Booze and
Buncombe Nominated Harrison.
The nomination of Harrison was
made in despair by the weary. worn
out delegates who had been struggling
for week against the plotting and
Juggling of the Blaine conspirators..
1t was not the outcome of a deliberate
choice; it was the only alternative of
the anti-Blaine element. While ma
jority of the convention would have
nominated Blaine had it dared, there
was compact and determined minor
ity in opposition,and the more prudent
of the Blaine leaders feared that if
their favorite were nominated by a
simple majority of the convention he
could not receive the united support of
the party The Blaine men would not
go to Sherman or Gresham, and Allison
and Alger were not regarded as at all
available. Sherman's unyielding per-
sistency in his candidacy prevented a
concentration upon Mckinley and the
convention was reduced to the alterna-
tive of taking Harrison or sweltering
for days in the torrid work of finding a
u dark horse" Harrison was, there
fore. sort of Hobson's choice or rath-
er a choice of evils.
What strength has the Republican
nominee? the reader will ask. No
personal strength whatever. As cold.
blooded as John Sherman, he is much
more aristocratic in his bearing.
Without executive training, without
ability or statecraft, without personal
following, he can not fail to prove a
weak candidate. His six years serv-.
ice in the United States Senate showed
hizn to be man of mediocre talents
and of slight equipment for the public
service. His name is not connected
with any important measure of legis-
lation. He originated nothing nor in
any way impressed his personality
upon Federal legislation. He has been
regarded by the leading men of his
own party as a political failure. He
was beaten for Governor of Indiana in
1876 in a canvass in which the whole
power of the Grant Administration
was thrown in his favor. He was de-
feated for United States Senator in In
diana last year after a disgraceful par
ticipation in a partisan election of hon
OSIly anu -ClCCCOO OCLAOOA quiz
members of the Legislature. How
can such a man lead his party to vic
tory?
1t is charged and the proofs will no
doubt be forthcoming that he was u
sworn and active member of the Know
Nothing organization. His opposition
to the legislation prohibiting the i'm.
migration of Chinese was presented as
an argument against his nomination by
the delegates from the Pacific slope at
Chicago. These two blemishes in. his
political record will repel thousands of
voters who might otherwise be induced
to support him. He is defensive cam
didate from the very beginning. No
aggressive campaign in his behalf is
possible. His supporters will be kept
busy explaining and apologizing for
his political alterations during the en-
tire canvass. One needs not to be able
to read the stars to foretell the re-elec-
ton of Grover Cleveland in November
next. Harrisburg (Pa.) Patriot.

GENERAL BOULANGER.
An Unfriendly Criticism of the Errat



French Leader.
General BOulanger himself is, no
doubt, thorough soldier, perfectly
strong sympathy for the needs and feel
ings of the lower ranks of the army,
and a natural turn for ingratiating
himself with interiors and superiors
alike. AS one of the best known men
in France told me: ''He is master of all
those arts by which an ambitious man
keeps himself before the public eye,
earns the character of patriot, poses
as man who has been wronged, and
generally makes himself talked of as
the coming man. He may be great
General, but he has never given the
smallest proof of it. He may be great
statesman, but he has done nothing to
show it. He may have policy, but
he studiously conceals it. He is neither
a speaker, nor writer, nor a thinker,
nor leader of any kind. His books,
his manifestoes, his speeches are noto-
riously made for him by a fluent bar
rister and a well informed journalist.
He has never put out single political
idea. He has never committed him
self to any definite policy. Like sport
ing prophet, his tips may always be
read in two or three senses. He talks
all things to all men; but he has never
said a word that can pin him to any
thing, to any party, or to any platform.
He is always vague. as ambiguous as
an oracle, and entirely personal. His
noisy and entirely colorless platitudes
are cautiously worded, like the adver-
tisements of a big hotel. to suit all tastes,
to tempt all classes, and to avoid any
positive information. He appeals to
the Republic and to the votes of Re-
publicans, while his movement is an
overt attack on the Republic, and he
appears in public surrounded by the
enemies of the Republic. He talks
about democracy, and he has the sup
port of M. Rochefort and of La Lam
terne; but there is nothing democratic
about him when he appears as can
didate and is elected by reactionary
votes. He entirely repudiates both
empire and dictatorship; but the
strength of his cause is avowedly in
Bonapartist camps. He repudiates
royalism and all royal causes; but he
takes very good care to conciliate
ROyalist votes. He says nothing
about religion or church, and he has
on his inner staff many violent Vol
tairians and anti-Clericals; but in
every department where he stands the
priests are his best election agents.
He says nothing about war and never
makes an infammatory speech; but he
talks vaguely about the nation in
arms, the honor of the flag, and the
dignity of France-harmless phrases,
which as phrases might be uttered by
every man, woman or child in the
country; but then the General is sur
rounded by the small poets and small
orators of La Revanche. NJ. Boulanger,
in fact, carefully abstains from COM
hitting himself to any policy what
ever. He cOquets with all parties and
vaguely appropriates every policy. It
is nothing but Try my Boulanger pill,
an infallible cure for all known all
ments.' "-LOndOf. Times.

Protection for Farmers.

Lsdger1
A favorite argument with the free
traders is that farmers are as much
entitled to protection as manufac
turers, but do not get any of the
benefits of the protective tariff. This
is not true since large proportion of
farmers are wool growers and receive
a direct benefit from the tariff on
that article. But other farm pro-
ducts are not protected, say the free
traders. The weakness of this ar
gument lies IN the fact that in our
hcme market for farm products we
are constantly exporting large quan-
titles to foreign nations. There is
no need of a tariff on articles of
which we are exporters rather than
importers. But as matter of fact
there is a natural prohibitory tariff
on bulky farm products in the form
freight charges for the long distances
they would have to be Transported
before being placed on our markets.
The chief benefit to farmers, how
ever, from the tariff laws is that they
have built manufacturing industries
throughout the country and have
furnished O convenient market for
farm products. If the great manu-
featuring industries which are the
direct result of tariff legislation were
all swept away and those engaged
in them forced into other occupations
the farmers would be the first TO feel
the misfortune IN an overproiuctio
of raw material and a dull and de-
clinilg market for all farm products.
