HARRISON AND BLAINE.
The Two Men Working Hand in Hand for
the Country's Wetfare


WASHINGTON, March 16.-President Har-
rison enters on the last half of his term
with great confidence in the success of the
Republican party He is regarded in Re-
publican circles in Washington as the chief
of the party, to whom will be offered, with
out serious contest, the nomination for
a second term. The only politicians
who would be at all disposed to
question this view are those who believe
that the great popularity of Blaine may
force upon the latter the nomination. But
it is clear that the President will have the
loyal support Of Blaine as member of the
Cabinet and that the Secretary of State will
not permit his name to be used in the coming
contest. Blaine has in hand the great and
eliminating work of his life, the completion
Of the reciprocity policy with Latin-America.
The President has seconded every move of
Blaine's policy with loyal hand. The two
gentlemen work thoroughly in accord, and
the clear legal knowledge of the practiced
lawyer is an element Of continual strength,
supplementng the genius of Blaine in all
questions of law. In the consideration of
all legal forms the Presidents experience is
OF great value. The regent Behrng Sea
correspondence and argument were Blaine's,

which arbitration could be accepted was the
work nf the PrpSidpnt

which arbitration could be accepted was the
work of the President.
Recently the President expressed this
opinion of the last Congress: "ln many
ways it has been most remarkable Con-
gress. Its work has been of most im-
portant character, its work has been done
In the face of tremendous criticism, and the
legislation evolved has been the outgrowth
of fierce contentious. The result is one that
will stand we'll in history and one which the
country will approve. The principle of
marked degree, and an adherence to that
rule is, in my judgment, the one principle
which will preserve the institutions of our
country"
Concerning the issues involved in the Elec-
tions Bill, he said: 'It will not do for the
people OF any section to say that they must
be let alone; that it is local question to be
settled by the States whether we shall have
honest elections or not. Whether it shall be-
come the dominant issue in the immediate
campaign or in the near future is QueS-
ton Tor the public to determine. 1t depends
upon how much the public conscience is
quickened regarding the principle of right
in the question of whether the northern
part of the country will consent to such
inequality of representation in the admin
istration of national affairs. l think there
should be no more agitation upon the tariff
until the Mckinley bill has been fairly
tried."s
The President was asked if he did not
hold to much the same opinion concern
ing financial legislation.
Il do not think that we need any more
financial legislation for the present. l do
rot see any present or near future necessity
OF financial legislation"

VIEWS OF DIPLoMATISTS.
No further action will be taken by the
Federal authorities at Washington until
after the receipt of Governor Nichols reply
TO Secretary Blaine's telegram. Secretary
Blaine has received a number of kilograms
from Italian organizations in different parts
of the country protesting against what they
term "an outrage" and demanding that all
Italian citizens be properly protected. This
matter is almost the sole topic of converse
ton in diplomatic circles, and so far as can
be ascertained, the general opinion is that
the State Of Louisiana and not the United
States must be held responsible. The
demand for indemnity, would, of course,
come from the Italian Government through
its minister resident and be transmitted by
The Secretary Of State to the Governor of
Louisiana, and if repudiated by that State
il would be submitted to Congress for such
action as might be deemed advisable.
New YORK, March 16.-General Rivas,
the Italian Consul of this city, declines TO
