The Party and Mr.. Blaine.

The decision OF the Republican
National Convention is not i'll any
sense q reelection upon James G
Blaine. The hold of the great Re-
publican leader upon the esteem and
affection of his party is so secure that
nothing can shake it. Mr.. Blaine has
been a history maker. His superb
work in Congress was enough to give
him high rank among American
statesmen. His matchlesS achieve
ments in the State Department us the
originator and promoter of recipro-
city and the skilltul and ~resolute
champion of American rights have
given him new and fadeless laurels.
The Republican party has repeat
edly shown its love and loyalty toward
Mr.. Blaine. 1t gave him harmonious
aud energetic support i'll 1884. IL
waited only the word TO make him
its standard bearer in 1888. Ii was
only Mr.. Blaine's W express CON-
mand in that year that kept him from
the nomination and the Presidency.
Had he not definitely declared that
he was not a candidate in his letter
last February to Chairman Clarkson
he might have been the nominee OF
his party in 1892.
That the Minneapolis convention
loved and honored Blaine is shown
by the tremendous and long c%ontinu-
ed applause that greeted every men
ton of his name. The Clarkson letter.
which he had not retracted or modi-
fled, and the doubt prevalent i'll many
minds as to the state of his health
and his ability to withstand the ordu-
Gus labors of the Presidency made
him. in the multitude of delegates,
unavailable as a candidate. But the
Republican party will not, while Mr..
Blaine lives. abate by one iota its
admiration for the kni e
champion whose name is a tower OF
strength. and whose devotion to his
party and country is as unfailing as
it is highly priced.

The Rising Generation.

The course of the water supply OF .
great city is watched with the utmost
diligence to see that it is kept pure, for
the Introduction of poisonous matter at
the fountain head means the carrying
of death and destruction to every house
hold. Childhood is the source whence
comes our manhood and womanhood,
and if youth is corrupted and poisoned
the terrible results are carried into the
very bosom of society.
We have long hal, says 4 philosophic
writer in the Detroit Free Press, some
thing like an adequate idea of the i'm
portance of surrounding those OF our
| children who are born into homes of
purity and refinement with the best IN
f~lucnces that church and school and
| society and literature afford I;ut we
have not been equally soicitous To reach
! and rescue these children who are born
into IN atmosphere of vice. imprrity
| and crime. We have known. most of
Us. in Il general way. that there are bad
children. and that places O: reform have
been provided for the incorrigiblcs: be
yond this we have not greatly Interested
ourselves in the study of the great
problem which Juvenile delinquency
presents to the mind that is thoroughly
aroused TO the interests oi humanity.
There is no reason why the task OF
reaching a right solution ando of putting
into active operation the best plans of
reform should be left To the few who
are specially Interested in philanthropy.
There is every reason why all men and
women of principle and intelligence
should be concerned for the character of
the rising generation. The highest in
tcrcsts OF society are Involved. Religion.
patriotism, philanthropy and all other
coed causes plead for the prevention of
juvenile delinquency
