IWanted to Capture the Convention.
Special to the Gazette.
DALLAS, Tex, May 21.-The "heart OF
oak" men at the convention tomorrow
are in fair way to capture the temporary
organization of the convention, according
to the statement of a prominent Dallas
Democrat Said he: "Navarro has
fourteen votes snd sends 8 delegation
numbering nlnety-eight. McLennan and
other straight heart of oak counties are
also repre- resented by delegations far out
numbering the votes their counties are
entitled to. II the temporary organiza-
ton be effected as usual, by viva vcce
vote, it is easily seen how the temporary
organization can be captured. Dallas
county has q representation OF nine
teen, which will be cast by nineteen
delegates. Thus Navarro having one
fourth less representation than Dallas,
will have five times more strength than
Dallas in the temporary organization
There is onlv one way to avoid this cut
and dried affair, aud that is to make .
temporary organization by call OF
counties"

Blains's Attitude.

NEW YORK, Msy 21.-The correspond
emit of the Press In Paris cables that paper
as follows: The stories that have been
for some time In circulation on the other
side Of the Atlantic, that the intimate
friends of james G. Blaine have been dis
crediting any announcement that he
would accept the Republican nomina-
ton il 1t were offered him, Ehave
nevertheless bean quietly working in a.
most all the states to secure the delec ates
for him after the first ballots were all
called over here. The publication here
OF the actual figures Of the sup
posed Blaine managers in New York
city, however, gives new imGetus to the
Blaine talk. II seemed from the figures
that Mr.. Blaine would Lave the largest
number of votes, something like $50 or
$40 on the first ballot even before tn
fsvorites had been selected; that the sec
ond, although comparatively few delega-
tons had been instructed tor him, would
go to $50, and tnat his nomins
ton with the greatest enthusiasm
and yet the greatest calmness
could not be postponed beyond the
third ballot. The moment this news
arrived took most strenuous means to
find out what Mr.. Blaine's attitude is,end
l am happy to say that my Efforts hsve
been successful. Mr.. Blaine had not
heard the full details of the report pub.
| lished in New York, and l was very glad
to give them to MIN. Naturally he was
not displeased, but said without equiv o
cation that his Florence letter and his later
interview, which Mr.. Crawford secured
for the Would, represented his present at
titude with complete truth. He had felt
sure, he said, that after his letter stating
his name would not go before the conven,
ton had been published many
acknowledged Headers of the Republican
party east and west would be actively
pushed for nomination, and he was glad
| to see that they had been put forward sc
| honestly, and he could not see why sc
many should assume, even in matters Of
the greatest Importance to his own do.

The fact WAS he had been through ont
terribly hard fight. 1t had been a crue
strain upon his family also and while b
could never be accused Of willingly shirk
