not slow about expressing his disappont-
ment. "We could have beaten Harrison, %
he said, ''if we had been able a little sooner
10 give a possible assurance that Mr.. Blaine
would accept the nomination We We're
not really able to do this until last Satur-

but FOR the feeling aroused by Nr. Blaines
resignation from the cabinet We made a
good fight and lost. I am not sorry we
made the effort 70 nominate somebody be-

party sincerely regret that we did not
succeed" In relation to the organization Of
the new national committee Mr. Clarkson
did not care to discuss the probability Of
his reelection to the craftsmanship.
