PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 26.-The correspond
ent Of the Record writes from the city Of
Washington as follows:
Long before he came to Washington to
be inaugurated Harrison had shown as
plainly as he could that he, too, had a pro
gramme which differed radically from
Blaine's. He proposed to be president he
proposed to succeed himself. Hehas stuck
to his programme. He has certainly been
president.
Blaine found it necessary to break forth
in his reciprocity movement in order to
remind the country that he Vas in the adj
ministration. This unexpected move dis
concerted Harrison for time He "got
ratified" as the saying goes, and made the
mistake Of trying TO bottle up both Blaine
and reciprocity. But Blaine, with charac-
teristic and successful audacity, broke the
bottle by appealing directly to the republi-
can party outside Of Washington, ayaiIing
himself with customary cleverness of the
| dlscontent with high protection and the
deslre LOT foreign markets, which Cleye-
lands campaign Of education had bro
duced within this very citidal of republi-
o1Iilslll'
bis beaith snd So Toap i, oo"g ooss blaine
adopted Blaine's idea as though Il % We're his bis
own and indeed has CONVINCED the rn1
publican organs and orators that he is the
original Jacobs" of reciprocity, he is
really no worse off than if it had never
happened. All the Harrisonians are
claiming for Harrison ali the credit for for
everything good that the administration
has done, and they are graduaIIv nrodIIc-
ing the impression on the nnnlic mind
which they desire-iust as anV imnression
can be imprinted by incessanf iteration
