THE COMING MAN.

AS. evidence that tho INDEPENDENT
was correct in its prediction that
Blaine would be the Republican stand
ard bearer in the coming campaign.
which opinion We have held ever since
the death of Pr. Conkling, the Philn-
delphia Times prints the following from
New York correspondent under date
of the 4th instanti
81 have entirely reliable information
that the friends of Blaine have within
the last three dnys received from him,
his assent to an aggressive movement
for his denomination for President, and
his assurance that if nominated, in the
face of his Florence letter of declina-
ton. he would not feel at liberty to de-
cline. A general and systematic effort
nus been made by Blaine's closest
friends, such as Chairman Jones, Will
Jam Walter Phelps, Whitelaw Reed,
Chas. Emery Smith and others, for two
laonths past to get Blaine into the atti.
tude Of passive candidate"
Additional evidence in the same di-
rection is found in the following dis.
pntch dated Washington, May 9th:
A conference of his friends was only
a part OF the varied methods by which
infiuences have been brought to bear
upon Blaine. and the publication of
Lis portrait, freshly taken from life in
Italy, and issued by Judge this week,
was decided ON more than O month ago,
~ starting point for an effort to make
Blaine a candidate. Every possible
pressure has been put on Blaine to get
from him a direct assurance that he
will not decline if nominated, ond that
assurance has been received in this city
from Blaine within the last three days.
1n u very few days more it will cease to
he a secret that Blaine is in the hands
of his friends, as the Blaine leaders will
at once come to the front aud make m
aggressive campaign for his re-nomina-
ton"
From the above it will be seen that
the chances are favorable for politicaI
contest with Blaine and Cleveland as
leaders of their respective parties, and
renewal OF the struggle Of 1884. Re-
ferring to this matter the Silver State
says:
1.-THE coolest and wisest heads in the

q the strongest man that can be nomi-
Inted ut Chicago. They argue that the
independent element will oppose him as
vohemently as in 1884, and that many
will look upon his Florence letter as the
device of trickBter. The Chicago
Convention will be Sherman's Inst
chance for the nomination, and as he is
certain to have larger following, with
l5!nine out OF tue fight. than any other
candidate. he will feel that he has been
duped by the Man OF Maine, and, like
CJnkllng, will doubtless sulk in his tent
during the CANVASS instead of bucklinc
on his armor and actively participating
in the fray, as heretofore. Blaine is
more popular with the mass of his party
thua Sherman or any other candidate,
hut many coolheaded Democrats, as
We a. Republicans, believe Sherman's
chances of election would be better than
Blaine 's."

A Vain Device.

The EX-Sheriif of Buffalo and Scott. the
Pennsylvania boss, have thought to do a
very shrewd thing by the nomination of
the aged man, Thurman, for the Vice
Presidency. But they will find in end
that they have gained nothing by this
transparent trick. Personally Thurman
is more respectable than they. But in
the terrible hours of the Nations agony
aud peril this Ohio Democrat gave his
sympathies to the rebel Confederacy.
His heart was not with the Union cause
and the Union armies. He was of those
who pushed the sharp thorns against the
noble, sensitive heart of the martyred
Lincoln. lie belonged to the Vallanding-
ham school of Ohio Democrats, who
army march through the streets of Wash
ington and from the Nations Capital
dictated the terms of reconstruction o the
people of the North and West, or forced
the recognition of Confederate Independ-
ence. His nomination, as well as that
of Cleveland, is nothing less than an in
suit to every living soldier of the Union
cause, and to the memories of those
hundreds of thousands of loyal men who
persisted that the Nation might live, or
have passed to their graves since the
rebellion was annhiated by American
valor and blood.

by some Pennsylvania delegate not yet select
ed. Judge Foraker win make the second
speech for Sherman, and give the Conven-
ton Ohio's view Of the situation. There was
some talk for long time that Senator Sher-
mans name would be presented BY Congress
man Butterworth, of Ohio, but the Senator
himself is reported ~ saying that he has
never had any other idea than that Governor
Foraker was to speak for Ohio in the matter.
One of the brilliant nomination speeches
of the convention is likely to be that Of
Senator Spooner, of Wisconsin, in support
ing Governor Rusk, who will be supported
by the Wisconsin delegation for President.
Uncle Jerry" as he is known in Wisconsin,
was stage-driver, rail-splitter and tavern
keeper in the pioneer days of that State.
He is a rough diamond who can be made to
sparkle under the polishing influence Of
Senator Spooner's eloquence.
The Vice Presidential nomination at
Chicago, said Murat Halssead yesterday.
will depend on the first nomination, both
on account of the locality East or West, and
his relative position. The Office is always
given to the fellow who feels most aggrieved
By the selection for the first place."
The name of Senator Allison will be
presented at Chicago by John P. Dolliver,
one of the delegates-at-large from Iowa.
Mr., Dolliver is the young Western orator
who attracted much attention in the cam
paign of 1884 by bis fluent and ornamental
as well as pithy speeches.

There is nearly complete break up of
the Greenbaek party in Michigan, where
it has held together longer than most any
where else in the country, and where it
has heretofore been in close alliance with
the Democrats. The square committal of
the Democratic party to Free Trade by
Cleveland's message and the Mills bills,
has made it impossible for the Protection
ist Greenbaekers longer to 60 with the
Democrats, and all the most intelligent of
them are returning to the Republican
ranks, where they properly belong. The
action of the st. Louis Convention will
only tend to augment the number who
are quitting in disgust the alliance with
the Democrats. Don Dickinson and his
postmasters cannot save Michigan for
Cleveland.

The Record of Micnisan's Candidate

Ex-Congressman Horr in the n Y. Tribune.
General Alger Is not weak in any
section or with any elements. No man,
after Mr.. Blaine, is better liked on the
Pacific Slope. No candidate mentioned
has stronger hold upon the soldiers of
the country. With the Grand Army
organization he is exceptionally strong.
At no time in his whole life has he failed
to give the Republican party and Repub-
lican principles his warm, ardent and ac-
tive support. While his record
in public affairs is not volumi-
nous, it is such a. will give him
strength the more closely it is examined
While General Alger is a man of large
means, no man in Michigan, so far as
know, ever uttered a word against his in
tegrty. He started in life poor boy,
and the property he now owns has been
accumulated by the closest attention to
business, which, of recent years, has be-
come large. In all his relations with bust
ness men and laboring men his re-
cord is without blemish. Since his ac-
emulation of wealth no man in the
country has gained better reputa-
ton by his constant and well directed
charities. During my second trip East this
year have found that these qualities of
General Alger are becoming generally
known, and that, especially in New York
and Pennsylvania, the delegates are look
ing towards him as possessing the quail
ties that will win in this campaign. = He
never uttered word and, | presume,
never had thought, that is not in perfect
harmony with the doctrine of Protection
to American labor and American indus
tries"

Harrison's Strength at Home.


=
A prominent Republican Of Indiana,
Robert S. Taylor. has been telling the
Philadelphia Press some interesting
things about his State. Mr.. Taylor, like
other Indianians, is proud Of Judge Ores
ham. and would delight to do him honor;
but he gives some striking reasons why
the Republican fight should be made un-
der the lead of General Benjamin Har-
rison.
It seems that the memory of the cam
paign of 1886, when General Harrison was
a candidate for the United States Senate.
burns in the bosoms Of Indiana Republi-
cans like the Sedan campaign in the MEN,
cries of the French. The Democrats had
gerymandered the Legislative districts
with view to majority of forty-six on
joint ballot. as calculated on the last pre-
ceding vote: but. largely as a result of
General Harrison's untiring personal eff
forts, the Republican State ticket was
elected by an average majority Of 1000.
The measure of General Harrison's per-
sonal influence and OF the shamelessness
Of the Democratic gerrymander is shown
by the facts that the Republican popular
majority in the State ON members of the
lower house was not 900, but nearly 10,
900, and that the Democrats nevertheless
had a majority onJoint ballot. But it was
not forty-six. 1t was two.
Tine Republicans want candidate who
can run that way in Indiana. The ticket
that can add Indiana's fifteen votes to the
ls2 electoral votes cast by the Blaine
States Of 1884 will need only four more
electoral votes TO secure its election. Some
well known and reputable Eastern mar
like Levi +. Morton in the second place
would make Harrison ticket as strong al
chain lightning.
