From The Auburn Advertiser
What man living can carry New-York State II
Chauncey NJ. Depew cannot What man has better
backing for carrying the state than he Ana nc can
carry Connecticut and New-Jersey This icing so
why would he not make strong Candidate partctiarly
n Gresham were on the second place If the Re-
publican party wants NewYork State In oruer 10 "lh'
VIC have shown how 10 get IT,
BLAINE AND GRESHAM IN THE LEAD.
From The Tarrytown Argus
The changes to be- noted in the ante-C Convention
canvass are the remarkable manifestations OF Blaine
growing strength and the purposeiulncss OF ldre9
portion of the party TO nominate him without regard
and the coming into the field of Gresham with more
discriminate and numerous following than had been
supposed possible since Harrison had the Vote Oh
Indiana, from which the former halls
THE WEST LIKELY TO UNITE ON SHERMAN.
From The Cincinnati Commercial Gazette.
We are Of the opinion that If contest should DO
between sherman and Gresham, the vote OF the states
for sherman and we see many chances of the nomina
tion of Sherman But IN case sherman should NOT De

almost unooked for support even oy MS most o OF be

From The Topeka Capital
One OF the latest freaks of The New York Post is
that Balnes popularity is suffering In the West and
has really been almost extingushed. The editor OF
The Evening Post Is not Informed about the West.
POINT IN H%RRIsoNs FAVOR
From The Warsaw Qnd Times
Why is it that the Democratic journals all tho
country, but espec ally I'm Indians prefer the NOM
nation of Gresham over Harrison by the Republicans
for the Presidency 1t is because they know that
could not do So leaving the field clear for the Buffalo
Sheriff."
NETWORK SETS A GOOD EXAMPLE
From The Des Mones Register.
Although Mr. Depew was clearly the favorlte OF
large part Of the Convention and of nearly all Of the
the Conv entlOn rcfralned from nstrucng for him
from indicating in formal way It's preference for
him The leaders of the party want the same har-
mOny and good will TO be felt at Chicago tbaC they
felt at Buffalo. So they leave the choice OF the can
didate, so far as they are concerned; 70 the wisdom
they meet at the National Convention 1t IS not I'M
reasonable therefore to hope that the candidate who
shall then be nominated Will carry the great state Of
New-York this fall.
BLAINE HELPED BY THE FLORENCE LETTER.
From The Syracuse Journal
The effect OF the Florence letter has been on the
whole favorable to Blaine. should he be made the
the Republican party, because of HIS own especial fit
ness for leadership and the concession that he IS
the one man above all others who most surely VIII
lead to success.
