The Mckinley bill, with this important
change, will now go through; but Its
author is robbed of its honors by Blaine's
master stroke. More than this, McRin-
ley ia saken out of the Presidential RAGS
in 1892, for Blaine steps in as the tariff
leader. To make himself great man In
his party Mckinley must run for governor
of Ohio and reclaim tho state from
Campbell.
Blaine will, by his agreement with
the President, keep his hands off the
Force bill. Its foster father, the other
man from Maine, ia welcome, so far as
Mr.. Blaine is concerned to all the glory
that will be attached to its passage. The
Republican leaders must put II through;
but Blaine will not help them. He knows
THAT the bill is unpopular and that it will
be death-blow to Reeds aspirations in
w. Thus is another strong man put out
OF the way.

again. As the result o. his visit to Cape
Nay PORT, Mr.. Blaine appears as can
didste for the Republican nomination in
1882 MIR. Harrison cannot fail to recog
nize this fact; but he was powerless to
lake any other course than The one he
adopted. Ia the hrst place he invited
Mr. Blaine to visit him here to show the
public that the relations between himself
anu his secretary were friendly. In the
second place, he could not stuliiiy himself
