BLAINE MUST ACCEPT
For the Coed of the Party--He Would
Have a Malkoger
10 the censen.ion Nothing Can Stop Mis-
Election II He Accepts.

tRtcAGo. May 22.--John NJ, Thars,on,
who attended the recent conference At Gen
Ayers home at Detroit, remarked here las,
might Unless Blaine says positively ,ha,
he will not accept the nomination if il is tcn-
dered him, ,lauS the Minneapolis eonyen-
ton will choose him as the candidate for the
Presidency, and il makes me feel good
when think about the success that awaits
Blaine and the Republican party.
MIR. Tharston declared the meeting at the
Aiger residence could no, be called politi-
cal conference. We. talked of every
thing said he, ,~Ali about the crops,
weather, tleodis and incidentally about the
food of Blaine sentinent tha, has spread
over the entire country. We werc all
Blaine men; there was no federal office
holder IN the party, and | think
II was the opinion of every man
there that Blaine would be the next
President, The party comprised Fasscu of
New York, Langston of Virginia, Filey of
Missouri, Sanhorn of Michigan. Mr.. Clark
son and wife and my wife and myself,
besides few ladies' and gentleman from
Detroit, The Ladies' talked about things in
which they were interested and We about
matters in which Ne were interested.
unnk II was the opinion Of all that Blaine's
nomination would prove the sure road to
success"
Mr., Thurston further said 'While Twas
in New York recently | talked to a great
many leaders of the party and they seemed
10 think ilarrison's success in this state is
by no means assured. They are positive
that Blaine can carry the state aud for this
reason they desire his nomination Blaine S
letter is not considered final and unless he
says, before the convention that he will not
accept the nomination. II will be given him,
believe his party has the right TO require
this service from him rs it would certainly
result in good TO the party at large"
Mr.. FhursIon said that ticket of Blaine
and Alger was not suggested at the confer
ence. He did not know whether Alger
would accept second place. He said Alger
was an ardent Blaine men, but il Mr.
Blaine would not allow his name to be pre-,
senled Gen. Alger would, he (Thurstop)
believed, be a candidate for first place.
