Washburn Things Barkis Is SIN Willing.

Especial to THE HERALD-Examiner Dispatch
WASHINGTON, Feb. 9.-SenatOr Wash
burn, of Minnesota, who has all along pre-
dicted that Mr.. Blaine would be nominated
without the shadow of a struggle, is one Of
the men yet unwilling to admit that he is
out of the race. The Senator says he does
not doubt MIR. Blaine's sincerity in writing
the letter, but regards it as hig ly signih
cant that no promise is made in it that the
nomination would not be accepted if made.
Men in political life have often changed
their minds in the face of changed circum-
stances. Mr.. Washburn says, and he
makes no secret of his belief, that should
Mr.. Blaine's health continue to be as good
as it is, and the people should demand his
nomination, he would accept the bonOr
with the best grace possible and be tri-
umphantly elected.

main In the race to the finish. He had
abandoned the hope OF being nominated for
