PRESIDENTIAL TALK.

The indications are that Hon, James. IT,
Blaine will accept OF the nomination for
the presidency, if it is given him by accli-
nation. Some weeks ago he declined TO
accept of it under any consideration on the
grounds that his feeble condition OF health
would not permit of it, yet the prooabili'
ties are that pressure will be brought
against him so strong that he cannot well
decline the honor.
President Harrison has numerous
friends who would be pleased to see him
renominated. On the other hand, we
believe that vast majority Of the people
who oppose second term for any one
This is, no doubt the correct idea TO ad-
vance. President Harrison has made
very clean administration, but public pol
icy demands that he retire and not stand
in the way OF anyone else. The second
term of President Grant was failure
for his subordinates felt that they owned
the country, therefore influenced theii
chief more or less. President Arthur
bobbed up for second nomination an'
got left. Grover Cleveland secured it ant
was served in the same way. Let the sec
ond term idea be a thing of the past; thel
executives will give better administration
and not attempt to force themselves upo1
the people when they are not wanted.

Washington Letter.

WASHINGTON, May 81, o. Secretary
Elkins made the most important political
statement of the week when he said that
Secretary Blaine had repeatedly told the
president and himself since he wrote the
letter to Chairman ClarksOn, that he
would not accept the nomination If it
were rendered him. Chairman Clarkson,
to whom the statement was made, still
says that, although he has not heard di'
rectly from Mr.. Blaine since he received
his letter declining to become candidate
for the nomination, he has reasons of his
own for believing that Mr.. Blaine would
not refuse the nomination if 1t should be
made by such an overwhelming majority
as to indicate that the party believed his
nomination necessary TO Republican sue
cess Il is noticeable and is certainly an
indication of success, whoever is nominal
ed at Minneapolis, that the best of feeling
exists between those who wish TO nomin-
Mr.. Blaine and those who think the presi-
dent entitled to the nomination.

PROF. GEORGE P. RUDOLPH, an ex-Cath-
olic priest, delivered very able anti
Catholic address in Cleveland Monday
evening. If the speaker tells the truth
about his mother church, such proceed
ings should no longer be tolerated in a
civilized community. On the other hand
if he is making false statements, he
should be arrested for slandering the
church. But It appears to be the story
they all tell. Eventually Its repetition
will cause trouble in this country. The
workings Of the balance Of the churches
in the world are open for inspection
Why cannot the Catholic church submit
to the same plan' Then the world would
be better able TO Judge of its merits.
