A DIsooRDANr DEMOCRACY.

Mr.. Blaine was the strongest Republican
in the party; lie is a man of political
genius and is stronger than his party; his
personal popularity is very great with
class of floating voters, who are more sem
sitive to the personal magnetism of the
candidate than solicitious about party
principles. The large number of Irish
Democrats who voted for Mr. Blaine in
1854 illustrate his capacity to win support
from men who did not care about his party
principles, but admired his personality.
These voters, who care little for plat
forms of principles but a great deal about
the personality of the candidate some
times vote with one party and sometimes
with the otheri they are not amenable 70
severe party discipline, and generally vote
according as they are strongly prejudiced
for or against the personality of the candi-
date. To his great and solid qualities as a
statesman Mr.. Blaine added captivating.
magnetic personality, which added greatly
TO his strength as party candidate. No
other Republican possessed this attractive
personality in any degree comparable with
Mr.. Blaine, and for this reason success
was ielt to be more certain under his
leadership than that of any other Repub-
lican statesman. He was sui geReris the
peculiar fayorite of the American people;
he was respectfully treated by the leading
Democratic journals, like the Sun and the
World. as the foremost American of the
hour.
The refusal of such a man to serve as the
party candidate of course alters the poiti-
cal situation to this extent that the battle
between the parties will be tough. and won

said TO have any man whose peculiar per
sonality carries with il any additional as

name and fame Of Mr.. Blaine.
The outlook Of the political situation at
present is not favorable 10 Democratic

enacted it will commit the Democratic
party so completely to this policy as to
make highly probable the loss of all the
doubtful Northern states in November

House will enact a free silver coinage
bill, as there are at least 100 men of the
Democratic majority who were elected
by constituents infatuated with this
financial deiusion.
