Now that the Republican enc
mics of Mr.. Blaine have succeeded in
driving him from the Presidential
race we hope they will feel better.
James q. Blaine was the only man in
this country that the Republican
party could have made president next
November, and now that those men
who would rather see the party 90 to
pieces than to see Mr.. Blaine made
president, haye accomplished the
work of crushing out the party.
With Mr.. Blaine out of the race it
makes little difference who the Demo-
Gratis nominate, he will be elected
whoever he may be. Mr. Blaine's
friends will stand by him till the last,
and they will see to it that none of
those who had hand in driving him
from the field, ever succeed in getting
into the Presidential chair. The
spirit of retaliation is as strong in the
hearts of Mr.. Blaine's friends, as was
the spirit of opposition in the hearts
o. his jealous enemies in the last
struggle and since. One half of what
constituted the Republican party two
weeks ago will vote either the Demo-
Cratic or Prohibition ticket next fall.

-Conklin, it appears, is not inclin-
ed to accept Blaine's letter of in good
faith. He speaks of it IS a communi-

abroad who has not forgotten his
countrymen. He says it paves the
way for the national convention, en-
abling it, if it sees fit, to select a
standard bearer other than himself
without appearing to act discount
eously. STILL" he adds, ''the field of
politics and letter writing is wide and
inviting to some, and to fashion a let
ter, of the Florence character, is not
reprehensible." The question now
arises will Mr.. Conkin prove himself

Philadelphia Ere1ing Telegraph, Republican: THE
only comment feel like making with regard to

BILE men of the Republican party to do is to take Mr..
