Nine years ago suffered from indigestion and

They Turn To Blaines

The cycltne which has overwhelmed
the Republican party has proven great
windfall to Mr.. Blaine.
While an the other Republican lead
ers have been swallowed up in the ruins
Of their hok,elessly wrecked policy, Mr..
Blaine alone is untouched by it. He
stands as the only Republican OF prOmi-
nense who had the wisdom to predict
the storm, and the only one who had
sence enough to get place of safety in
time. As a consequence all Republican
eyes are fixed on him. all their hopes
are centered upon him. 1t is proud
moment for Blaine to find, even at such
c cost, the wisdom of his advice vindica-
ted and the little men who had risen up
in their self sufficiency to assume the
leadership Of the Republican party
blown away and annihilated by the
tempest of popular condemnation and
reputation.
But while Mr. Blaine is statesman OF
ability, he is not equal to the task Of re-
surrecting the Republican corpse in
time for the next presidential election.
Mr.. Blaine will. doubtless, be the univer-
sal choice of his party as the leader in
the campaign of 1892, but it il a ques-
tion whether he will or eau consent to
sacrifice himself on that occasion. But
the fact that the Republicans are turn
ing to Blaine is an evidence Of return
to conservative measures. 1t will be
good for the peace ard prosperity OF the
country. We have had too much Sec
tional war.-Picayune.

The recent law passed by congress
closes the mails to the newspapers con-
tanning advertisements of the lottery,
while the leaflets and circulars of the

League is the re-chatter Of the lottery.
Is there any difference between and ad-
vertisement that keep alive the business
of the institution and an organization
that strive to keep alive the institution
that the law inted to crhsh? The war
seems to be not against The lottery, but
against the newspapers.
