BLAINE AND THE PRESIDENCY

This distinguished gentleman is at pres
ent receiving much of public attention
throughout the country, not only from the
conflicting reports as to the condition of his
health, but the strong probability of his be-
ing the Republican candidate for Preside ut
in 1892.
Mr.. Blaine's friends are in danger of over.
praising him. He may be "the greatest man
alive" but the greatest of all other living
great men, when put together, would be
greater than bis greatness. 1t may be true,
as one Of his eulogists says. that If "Blaine
should resign from the cabinet, the hole he
left would be larger thar all the rest of the
administration" He may have been a great
diplomatic success, he may be great legal
authority, be may be indispensable To the
government, be may be "the hope of the re.
public" the "idol of South America," "the
terror of Europe" and the prodigy of the
rest of the world. If these things are ell
true, they would better be seldom said. IL
said at all. Indeed, if they are true, there
is no need of saying them whatever, they
would be too obvious TO call for mention
and too commanding TO require comment.
The people Of this country will stand good
deal, but it is possible to Put too much
sugar, even free sugar, on man Tor them,
because the attempt to make the people
swallow him, sugar and all, tends TO nausea
But let us examine ONE of the many of
these claims on behalf of this clever and
wonderful politician. Is Mr. Blaine great
lawyerf II SO, he is great lawyer who has
never studied law, who has never practiced
law and with whom such lesser but actual
laWyers as Hoar and Edmunds in the Sen.
