Mrs. ]. G. BLAINE, in, denied In an
interview in Chicago that she did the
counting before her marriage, and said
that Il was necessary for her TO clear her
character for the sake OF her son. 1t is
shamefully unmanly for man Of any de-
gree to attack the virtue and modesty OF
woman for any purpose, but infinitely
worse for a man occupying the positIcn
which Mr. Blaine occupies to defend his
wife by sssailing the good name Of his
sons wife That's Blaine; that's the sort
OF political idol the Republican party
worships-the concentrated personhcA
