THE GAME BLAINE IS WORKING.

1t has been suggested that there Is
more at the bottom OF the newspaper
romances about Mr.. BLAINE's health
than the sensational gossip OF imagi-
native ne wspaper correspondents. 10
be sure RUSSELL HARRISON and ELLIOTT
SHEPARD led of in the campaign
against BLAINE's health, and everybody
knew that the purpose was to convince
the Republican party OF the impossi-
bility Of another presidential campaign
with the favorite Republican leader at
the head of the ticket. But the indlg-
nation of the party was so strongly ex-
pressed against such Harrison tao
tics, that they were quickly
abandoned, and the attempt was
made in various Republican papers
to show that the reports about Mr..
BLAINE's physical incapacity to head
another Presidential campaign were In
spired by Democratic fears of his Sec
ond candidacy. 1t was hoped that this
course would create feeling OF sym
pathy for Mr.. BLAINE and an impress
sion that the Democratic party is afraid
of him. 1t is very peculiar canvass,
but it can deceive nobody gifted with
ordinary intelligence. The Democratic
party would not object in the least to
meet Mr.. BLAINE again in the political
field. He was far stronger politically
in 1884 than he can ever be again, and
the world knows the result OF that con-
test. The sympathy dodge is not new
in politics and; has failed under far more
favorable conditions.
There is no doubt, whatever, OF the
earnest desire Of the Harrison faction to
sidetrack Mr.. BLAINE for next years
canvass, but they cannot shift the re-
sponslbility for their tactics on the
shoulders OF the Democracy. Neither
can Mr.. BLAINE produce the impression
that the Democrats are trying 10 pre-
vent formidable competitor from taxi
ing the field. The uncertainty OF the
fall elections may have caused the willy
statesman from Maine to adopt his
present tactics, which will enable him,
in the event of another tidal wave, to
retire gracefully from the candidacy,
and to urge the nomination of Mr.. HAIR
RIsoN. Should that tidal wave occur,
there will be no more ardent advocate
of Mr.. HARRISoN's denomination than
JAMES G. BLAINE. Should there be
any important Republican success, the
sympathy dodge will be worked to the
utmost degree.

COLLECTOR Of Customs ERHARDT at the
Port of New York has sent his resigna-
ton TO the President. Mr.. ERHARDT
resigns because the Secretary Of the
Treasury, in order to save a few dollars
10 help out the bankrupt treasury, has
dismissed about so employees Of the
office. Mr.. ERHARDT'S resignation takes
effect at the same time as the dismissal
OF his clerks, August 1. Mr.. ERHARDT
cannot be blamed for resigning,
because the clerks at
the New York Custom House are over
worked as it is, and it is difficult TO see
how the office can properly be admins
tered with less. But the administra-
ton thinks it cannot afford TO acknowl-
edge what everybody knows, namely,
that the Ire aSury has been bankrupted
blythe Republican party; SO it makes a
showing OF funds at the expense Of a
crippled public service. The admins
tration will lose more than it will gain
by this chopping OF Of official heads in
New York where it has no strength at
all, except through these very Office
holders, who will now be turned to
enemies.
