Harrison for Blaine as Against Reed.


Among the nominations sent to the Senate
on Monday was that of Col. FREDERICK n.
Dow to be Collector OF Customs at the port
Of Portland. Few appointments to Office
under the present Administration have
meant more in political way.
The Portland Colectorship is the most i'm
portant Federal Office In Maine, and one Of
the most important in New England. 1t is
worth $4,000 year to the incumbent, and it
is also the place in which is coiled the MAIN
spring Of Republican politics in Speaker
REEDS district. An enemy OF the Speaker
in the Portland Custom House Is an enemy
established and fortified right in the middle
Of the Speakers camp.
The choice between Mr.. REEDS candidate
for Collector, WESTON F. MILLIKEN, and the
candidate supported by the BLAINE, HALE,
and FRYE interests, was square choice be-
tween the Secretary and the Speaker. Col.
Dow Is the son of the venerable NEAL Dow,
and, therefore, the half brother of the pro-
hibitory system. He is no Prohibitionist in
politics. but the liveliest sort OF BLAINE Re-
publican; and he Is not only not friend OF
the Speaker. but is his pronounced and ag-
gressive enemy.
Lie beleCllOuOl SO DOW instead OF hEEDB
man or compromise candidate is, under
the circumstances, almost direct insult to
the Speaker. 1t means open war between
the White House and the quorum machine
at the other end OF Pennsylvania avenue,
for Mr.. THOMAS B. REED is not the man to
turn the left cheek when the right has
been smitten.
Does the President still cherish the de-
lusion that anybody outside Of his own in
teresting domestic circle and the newspaper
Offices Of Judge and Frdnk Leslies is talking
or thinking about BENJAMIN HARRISON as
the Republican nominee for President two
years hence? If so, he evidently regards
the Hon. THOMAS BRACKET REED as his
most formidable rival, and has spotted and
struck at him accordingly.
Perhaps this view of the situation is not
unacceptable just now to Brother BLAINE.

A Very Good Reason.

The Fair-wrestling city of Chicago having
at last landed its immediate troubles on a
site, would have the rest OF the country
think that its work on the preliminaries
necessary to the great exhibition was COM
plete. At least that is what this portion Of
the Chicago Herald must signify:
There appears to be NO good ground for further de-
lay on the part OF President HARRISON issuing the
onicial proclamation announcing to the countries of
the earth that the Columbian position IL to be held
according to law"
On the contrary. there is very decisive
reason against such proclamation. There
has as yet been no evidence that Chicago
has provided money for her vast and coveted
undertaking. Something has been raised,
of course, to meet the various forms OF ad-
vertising and the few expenses Of or
ganization, but the great amount that will
be needed to start the show and to
perfect it has not yet cast so much
rs perceptible shadow across the future.
The alleged money, the five millions which
served as the mysterious bank account
with which Chicago exhibited herself in
Washington as credited. would be harder to
find than the site, and, like the latter, the
five millions would be inadequate for the
purpose, only irremediably more SO. Mr..
M. H. DE YOUNG, Of the San Francisco Ghron-
icle, who is now in Chicago, is quoted there
as saying that II 1.-THE people OF Chicago
are not satisfied to have the Fair and give
$40, 900 for it, they oughtn't have it,
and Congress would be in favor Of TAX
ing it away from them" From ten
to twenty millions in good hard cash
will have to be paraded or certified to before
the Executive can be justified in risking in
vitations to foreign countries to a Fair that
otherwise might never materialize. The
collection of this fund also cannot like the
choice OF a site, be delegated to a Federal
Commission.
So far from the situation demanding the
action of the President, Chicago's own ex-
ertions have not really begun.
