sKArrLE. WEDNESDAY. JUNE s.


Mr.. Baine's letter to Mr.. Clarkson in
February last did not say that the presi-
dent ought TO be renominated, or express
preference for any other candidate; it did
not say anything about Mr.. Blaine's
health, and IL did not saw that Mr.. Blaine
would decline the nomination provided the
convention saw At TO select him. Mr..
Blaine stood aside and allowed ell the
delegates to be chosen bv the influence OF
Mr.. Harrison; the president and his
friends cannot therefore claim that Mr..
Harrison did not have the opportunity to
test his strength to which he thought he
was entitled by reason of his position.
The action of Mr.. Blaine in consenting to
stand aside and let the president secure the
domination if he could was magnanimous,
and it saved the party series of contests
in every distric. and state convention in
the country. Mr.. Blaine therefore feels
himself free from the most remote sense
of obligation to the president as regards
his own political future and holds that if
the Republican party insists upon nomi-
mating him in the face of his letter to Mr..
GARRISON. saying that he is not candi-
date, there is no reason in the world why
he should not with perfect propriety &C.
cept the honor.
This view is entirely correct, and there
is no reason why any delegation that
went to Minneapolis unhampered by in
structions for Harrison cannot vote for
Blaine. An instructed delegate cannot
honorably disobey his instructions, at
least as long as there is any reasonable
chance of the success of his candidate for
whom he is instructed. but the unin-
structed delegates have q perfect right to
vote for Blaine if they please and at least
800 of the sos delegates were elected with
out formal instructions.
