LOOKING AHEAD.
Blaine's Diplomacy Again Manifested In
His Letter.

Four years ago Mr. Blaine wrote a
letter from Florence ostensibly n
declination 20 bc considered a candidate
at Chicago. Discussion followed as TO
the real meaning of the letter, it being
u misfortune of Mr. Blaine's epistolary
efforts that they are SO very bril-
liant as to be dazzlingly uncertain.
Mr. Blaine's name was presented to
the convention, but Mr.. Harrison was
nominated through the assistance of
Mr. Blaine's friends.

tion of the president to whom he owes
his selection. Mr.. Blaine now says:
III am not candidate for the presi-
dency and my name will not go before
the national convention for the nom
ination." Failing the assertion that
under no circumstances will he be a
candidate, the letter of Mr.. Blaine is

have contained peremptory directions
which were not always obeyed, as the
investigation of 1876 disclosed. But
the IN ass of the republican party every
where in the United States will un.
doubtedly accept this declaration as
disposing of the Blaine candidacy.
Mr.. Blaine adds: II make this an
nouncement in due season." Followers
of Mr.. Harrison will no doubt regard
the sc ason as entirely ripe Dissenting
views will be taken of its timeliness by
opponents of Harrison. Nearly all
state conventions have been called, and
the work of choosing delegates to Min
neapolis may be said to be going for
ward. Little time is left in which to
organize against the white-housc can
didacy. Senators Cullom and Allison,
Gov. Mckinley, Gen. Alger and others
may be pardoned il they take differ
ent view of what is due season. Due
season TO them would have been last
summer, when the friends of each were
contributing to the cunningly-devised
Blaine boom. They threw their polti.
cal fortunes into the Blaine floodtide
and now find them strewn upon the
| shore, while the Harrison craft, aided
by Blaine has all advantage of wind
and tide and extra steam, and will
make har Dor in what Blaine in his let
ter calls ''due season."
Neither Mr. Blaine nor Mr.. Blaiue's
immediate opportunity-seekin friends
have cause for complaint against the
| Harrison administration, which has
been decidedly considerate of both.
Mr.. Blaine has been reinforced in the
cabinet by Mr.. Elkins-and there is no
evidence that the Blaine influence,
when it was in earnest, was not potent
with Harrison. To coterie thus rec
| ognized and influential the continuance
of Harrison in the white house would
be preferab bic TO the advent of any other
republican, and since the terrible cas-
| tigation of 1884 abides as a warning in
Blaine's memory, forbidding him to
essay the campaign anew under any
circumstances, it was part of the Blaine
smartness to center opposition to Har-
rison in himself that no serious head
way might be made against a republic
an who is at once his patron and his
protege.
Blaine's clever, if not gracious, ma
neuvering has smoothed Harrison's
path to Minneapolis. The secretary
has made ingenious use of his friends,
and his reward will be continuance of
the portfolio of state in his hands
should the beneficiary of his tactics be
reelected to the presidency. Chicago
