Ex-Judge John A. Blair, who is posi-
BILE Republican candidate for Governor Of
this State. when spoken to about
tho nominations said:-'I think the
nomination of President Harrison was
the only logical thing the party could
have cone. His administration has been
one OF the strongest and cleanest in the
the party not to have en-
dorsed it by nominating him would have
been the greatest piece of stultificatlo lon
possible. The President fs certainly
stronger than he was four years ago W hen
he was comparatively new aud untried
man, and it seems to nae that he must
necessarily be elected. The most un.
fortunate part in the whole business OF
the convention was that Blalue's pre-
Tended friends dragged him into the
fieht and thus have succeeded in killing
him torever poitically.f
"In regard to Mr.. Reid for Vice Presi-
dent. / believe he is an energetic and bril-
liant man, but know very little as TO the
elements of strength he controls. Geo
graphically the selection is what it should
be. Mr.. Reid made very good reputa-

ought to, and he is bound to be re-

Republican State Committeeman Rod
erick r. Seymour said:--"I think the
nomination is an excellent one. Benja-
min Harrison Is one of the ablest Presi-
dents we've had, and | believe that he
will poll the full Republican vote. think
that Harrison will be elected because the
Democrats cannot agree on candidate,
and whoever they nominate Will pot
receive the full Democratic vote and then
again the business portion of the commu-
nifty has confidence In President Harri-
son, as he protects their interests. He
will. therefore, have the full support of
the business men.

sion in the Republican ranks it will be
amicably settled before election day"

n safe, conservative man, and | have no
doubt of his reelection"
