UNCANNY BUSINESS.

The controversy over Mr.. Blaine's
health continues. A long dispatch from
Washington to a Pittsburg paper within
week, laid bare what is alleged to be a
concerted effort amongst the opponents
of Mr.. Blaine to rule him out of the
next political contest, by urging con-
stantly his ineligibility by reason of
poor health. How much credit ought
to be attached to this we do not feel
sure about, but it was given out with
great fullness. The Harrison party, it
is claimed, make business of ridiculing
the doctors who call his latest attack
simply fit OF indigestion, and cay that
for years the secretary of state has not
been sure of his health week, and DUR
ing the last year all his work has been
partly done by others, even compelling
parties to go to his residence for confer
ences upon routine affairs. This is very
plain talk, and the public can see that
there is much truth in it.
Yet to what good end can it all tend ?
Why not wait till some time near the
meeting of the convention before at
tempting to make out case upon
which judgment must be passed? 1t
is all very fatiguing to the public
and even offensive to the sense of per-
sons not wholly given over to political
gossip. That Mr.. Blaine is not a we'll
man everybody is aware who knows
him, and that he has been kept from
the full personal supervision OF his duties
the last year is matter autheticated by
the daily news. But ali this is far short
of state of things that justifies his
competitors in the party ranks in MAX
ing war upon his possible candidacy
next June. 1t is clear that MIR. Blaine
is impressed with two things. One is
that the party stands small show with
anybody else, as is quite freely con-
ceeded in some quarters, at least. The
other is that the campaign OF 1884 would
not be patterned after if he were to run
again, as the country would not allow
a repetition OF those methods, on either
side. Hence the strain upon him and
his family would not be so great, while
he would feel he had better chance of
election than any of his fellow party
leaders could have. Certainly these
considerations have latterly been opAr-
asing upon his mind and his candidacy
is now felt to be only a question Of
health. A newspaper whose editor has
excellent means OF knowing the feelings
of the Blaine family has recently ex-
pressed itself az ii fully assured OF the
fact that Mrs. Blaine would no longer
interpose opposition to her husband's
candidacy If his physicians should
feel he was able to take the burden upon
him.
Here let us hope the matter will rest,
as it should rest. Let the interested
and the competent parties decide when
the time comes, and meantime let the
patient and long suffering public be

She made most points, and was awarded

the heat. The dogs were down one
hour.
The third pair were J. M. Barney's
pointer Ottilie, anu T. j. Watson's set
ter Alice Gladstone. The former was
handled by Allender, and the latter by
DeMott. This was very speedy pair.
In fact all the dogs thus far had shown
more speed than nose, causing them to
dash in among the birds that should
have been scented and pointed. Fewer
points were made than in former heats,
but Alice had the best of it after work
ing forty minutes, and was awarded the
heat.
The fourth pair were T. J. Watson's
Setter starlight, and Charles Studarus's
pointer Rush Croxteth. The former
was handled by DeMott and the
latter by his owner. Starlight was
fast and beautiful worker, quartering
the ground nicely, while the pointer was
slow and lacking in style. 1t looked as
though the pointer would not be in it,
but TO the surprise of all he found and
pointed bird after bird, while the setter
was dashing about through the cover
like blue streak, but doing nothing ex-
cept to make one point and back rush
on one of his points. The dogs were
down half an hour.
This ended the first series OF the
Derby. Tomorrow the winners of today
will go against one another in the sec
ond and third series over the same

SENATOR MATTHEW STANLEY Quay has

time. The saturnine Pennsylvania
statesman thinks, and perhaps correctly,
that he is the Warwick who put Mr..
Harrison in the executive chair. He it
was that invented Mr.. Wanamaker. He
was met with ingratitude. AS result,
he saw to it that James &. Blaine got

State banks may or may not be what

it may, the plans are being made to
draw the attention of the people for

lions, it will take over 5000 small

Another thing is the general drain on

violation of laws, farmers have been
drained to keep upthe towns and cities,

Knitting periodically to all needed tax
alton for the public service, are in no
temper for increased taxation
THAT is we'll put and is everlasting

HERE YOU AREI

Partisans who are strongly imbued
with that peculiar feeling that makes
men forget home, family, justice and
everything else for the sake of party,
do not like to hear it said that their
party is no better than the opposition,
or that the two parties are in league
with each other.
But every day brings evidence of the
truth Of il. The big bosses are making
the money and the people are fighting
each other.
John Mclean owns the Cincinnati
Enquirer, also the Commercial. One
of them is a rabid Democratic paper,
the other a rabid Republican. Mclean
is the recognized mouthpiece of mo-

DON'T BE

The Statesville Landmarks claims to
have been startled recently on account
of a reform paper" going for the
Billion Dollar Congress" with gloves
off.
There is no occasion for surprise.
The reform papers" have been doing
this all the time. The Ocala platform
is an emphatic protest against all such
things. But until the Democratic
party shows that it is a good deal better
than the party that Matched out the
Billion Dollar" circus some people
will say that is a rascal and the
other a fraud. But, of course, such
people are cranks. If Jefferson was
living he would be a crank; SO would
Calhoun.

of President Folks address:

great industrial movement. There Is
something to be found in this address
by reading between the lines as web
as on them. 1t is a noble production,
and shows the heart of the patriot a.
well as the head of the scholar ana
statesman. We would like to see sucn
a man as Polk President of this greag
nation, even though he were a 'reoeI
brigadier,' or whatever his rank may nay
have been. The past is gone, tbs th y
presents and the future that shoulr
