MINNEAPoLIs, June 3.-There are two
Presidential tickets i'll the field tonight
the Peoples candidate and the Admin
istration candidate. 1t was thus that
after consultation to-day the Blaine
managers formally rechristened the
Blaine boom. The immediate b nners
which are to extend from tb Blaine
headquarters across the in er8ecting
streets will bear the words, Fhe Peo-
Blainer'
Visitors to the spacious ,iall in the
Lumbermen;s Exchange are now in
formed that they are in the Peoples
headquarters, and that Plumed Knight
Reciprocity is the Peoples candidate, the
choice of all factions. Pearl buttons of
American manufacture and Detroit inge-
nuity adorned the lapels of hundreds of
Republicans to- night, bearing the in
scrlption, Reciprocity! Blaine! Pro-
tectionW Blue silk badges were also
visible, displaying in golden letters the
words, "Blaine! Blaine! James g..
Blaine ~
But despite this enthusiasm, the Harri-
son men are still confident, and their con-
two-thirds of the delegates now here are
outspoken for the Presidents renomina-
ton.
That General Alger at heart is for Blaine
and the Michigan delegation for Blaine,
with Alger for second place, no one any
longer doubts. If there had been skeptl-
cism upon this point, it was removed to-
night by sthe distribution of circular
from Michigan headquarters bearing the
portraits of Blaine and Alger. with a
banner reading as follows: Under the
Oaks at Jackson-F'remont and Dayton,
1886; Blaine and Alger, Minneapolis,
1892"
The circular recites that the Republican
party and people demand the nomination
Of Blaine, because he commands conf
dence and admiration before the entire
population in a greater degree than does
any other living American; because of
reciprocity" which he originated, and
''prOtecuOn' would be best administered
in his hands; because he believes in
eternal separation of the church and
schools; because he can carry all the sill
yer States without doubt; because he can
bring back to the Republican fold hun
dreuS OF thousands Of farmers who are
drifting from their moorings; because a
majority Of the Republican party believe
one term in the Presidential chair Suf-
ticlent honor for any. man; because
for the enforcement of laws securing to
the enfranchised colored men OF the
South their constitutional right to cast
their ballot and have the ballot counted.
On the reverse side of the circular is
printed in full the famous speech of Col
onel Robert q. Ingersoll in nominating
Blaine sixteen years ago.
Cagtain Cavett of Michigan saws the
circular was submitted to General Alger
last night and met with his approval.
Among the friends of the Administra-
ton who arrived to-day were Senator
Hiscock of New York and General Lew
Wallace Of Indiana. Wallace said: "Har-
rison will be nominated on the first bal
! lot. Blaine's name will not be before the
convention, and a count of delegates will
show this. Blaine's letter was official
and meant just what it said. There will
| be an effort to stampede the Harrison del
| egatiOns, but it won't succeed"
William Henry Eustis, a Minnesota
| delegate and an original Blaine man, be-
lieves the Minnesota delegation has six
/ teen Blaine men and two for Harrison.
C. B. Hart and others of the West Vir-
| ginia delegation arrived to-day. Hart
| said Blaine'S letter needed no interpreta-
| ton, and it was now too late for him to
| Go anything. Even if his name was pre-
sentad he believed the delegation would
vote for Harrison.
|
| said Louisiana was for Harrison, and the
! electoral vote of the State would be cast
for him. The sugar, rice and lumber in
| terests of the State were strongly for Har-
rison and the Republican ticket, because
of the benefits of the Mckinley bill.
John K. Lynch of Mississippi, colored
! leader, and Fourth Auditor of the Treas
ury, said to-day that the delegates should
| be called upon to decide between Blaine
| and Harrison. The friends Of both men
| should at once confer and determine
| which shall be the nominee. 1--WE feel
! that Harrison's record and attitude on
| behalf of the colored voters certainly en-
/ titles him to their support
Senator Hansbrough of North Oak ota
| said he believed 1t now foregone con-
| clusiOn that Blaine would accept the
nomination. I'VE selected Harrison
! four years ago." he said, because we
wanted the State, no. the man. If from
| North Dakota, he would not have been
| selected
Miles kehoe of Illinois. delegate-at-
! large, is for Harrison, and believes forty
| four OF the delegates from his State will
! be with him. He says he feels that it would
| be dishonorable for Blaine to accept.
| Chauncey l. Filley of Missouri, dele
gate-at-large, believed his delegation
would obey instructions and vote fol-
| Harrison, at least on the first ballot. He
| lnOuSDI, however, In3L AlJSSOurl would
| cast two-thirds of its vote for Blaine
with Harrison out of the way.
Senator FELTON, of California said: "Pm
! not for Blaine per Sc" The Senator will
wait to hear from his delegation before
| deciding how he will vote. He states
| that ne was invited to second the noni-
| nation Of Harrison, but declined the
! honor.
