The subjects of republican organization
and party prospects were much discussed,
and altogether in hopeful spirit but the
chief topic was Mr.. Blaine's letter. which is
viewed in many ways While his declination
is a serious disappointment to a large num-
Der of republicans there is no disposition
to cavil at his action, for it is believed that
he has done what he deemed best for the
interests of the party. 1t is the general
opinion that the republicans are provided
with more and better material for presi-
dental candidates than their opponents,
and that the party can win with any one of
half dozen candidates who are promi-
nently named. Some think that the party
has lost its strongest candidate by Mr..
Blaines withdrawal, but that this loss may
be repaired to considerable exteut if cir
cumstances shall permit Mr.. Blaine to take
| an active part in the campaign in behalf of
the party nominee.
