The result of all this is that the
presidents city, county and state are
now democratic, the disaffected poll
iticIans either refraining from voting
or casting their ballots for the demo-
cratic candidates; and the statement is
made that even IL renominated Mr.
Harrison cannot carry Indiana, but
that many Of the leading papers of the
state are openly fighting his ambition
for a second nomination.
All this is very, very sad for Mr.
Harrison, and very, very joyous for his
secretary of state: but it is not wholly
discreditable. IL is true that consider
able casuistry is required to distinguish
between the right Of accepting Office at
the hands of men whose methods are
such as those employed by the blocks
of'five supporters of the president and
the wrong of allowing those supporters
to dispense the patronage; but there is
a distinction, II not difference. and
the president deserves some credit for
recognizing it. His post-inaugural
