TERMS OF THE DISPATCH.
THE BLAINE REVIVAL.

The persistent attempt of the anti
Harrison element to force the nomination
of Blaine is at once a measure of the
strength of the public sentiment for the
Secretary of State and an indication of
the desperate desire of the opponents of
the President TO use Blaine in defeating
the denomination.
Our special kilograms, rejecting the
position of affairs on both sides, leave no
doubt that the anti-Harrison men have
organized to the best of their ability to
boom Mr.. Blaine's nomination and STAN
pede the convention for him. Their work
is apparent in the appearance of reports
that the Secretary will accept a nomina-
ton by acclamation, and in the renewed
epresentations-whic are far from un-
founded-of the strength of the popular
desire that he shall be the candidate.
With this movement pushed as it will be
by the skill and energy of which the anti
Harrisonites are capable, nothing can pre-
vent its rise to a stage dangerous to Mr..
Harrison's nomination, except a new and
even more positive declaration from the
Secretary of State that he will not take
the nomination.
1t is probably correct, as stated in our
dispatches, that all the engineers of this
movement ask of Mr.. Blaine is that he
shall hold his peace till the convention
acts. If he falls in with their wishes to
that extent there is a good chance that
Ohio, Pennsylvania and New York will be
able to stampede the convention. 1t is
quite possible that Russell Harrison's last
injudiciOus outbreak may have the effect
OF inducing Blaine to keep silence, while
the Harrison and anti-Harrison elements
rend each other over the question whether
he will accept or not.
But if the plan carries out to the point
of success, it is worth while to consider
the result The DISPATCH has been out
spoken in declaring that Blaine is head
and shoulders above. any candidate If his
health permitted hifn to run. But after
he has positively declined, for the reason
that the strain on him would probably be
fatal, would it be any gain to the Republi-
can party to nominate man subject to
-ths-cuntipgencies involved in that state
ment? 1t is pertinent to remark that the
present Blaine boomers have not in the
past shown such fidelity to him as to pre-
clude the thought that they might be will
ing TO subject him to fatal chances so that
their own political power remained un-
broken.
That Blaine, in full vigor and leading
the Republican party by his free choice,
would be a candidate superior to Harrison
is beyond dispute. But with the circum-
stances as they are now the revival of
the Blaine Outcry is mainly sign of des-
perate opposition to Harrison.

man of the Executive Committee of the Col

equal legal treatment of the two money
metals"

CHICAGO CLERKS DEMAND REST,
They Are Backed Up by Church People and
the Central Trades Assembly,


the Central Trades Assembly.
CHICAGO, May 22.-Two methods of secur-
ing Sunday closing and no night work were
proposed to the Chicago clothing clerks at
the great mass meeting held this afternoon
in Bricklayers' Hall. One came from
the representatives of organized labor, and,
in word, was to boycott dealers who per-
sist In exacting unreasonable labor of their
employees The other came from the clergy
and was, in effect to educate people out of
their thoughtlessness in making purchases
Since the mass meeting was held under the
auspices of the Trades and Labor Assembly,
the former method met with the more favor
able reception. Steps were taken to initiate a
move for the organization of the statesmen,
and it is not improbable that the upshot OF
today's meeting will be the representation
of clerks in the Trades and Labor Assem-
bly,. Resolutions were adopted, condemn
ing the practice of employers in opening
their shops at all on Sunday and keeping
open an unreasonable length of time on
week days, and appointing committee Of
ten to request clothing dealers to conform
with the desire of the meeting.

CHICAGO, May 22.-The Treasury agents
here are engaged in the investigation of
what is claimed to be conspiracy to import
British goods into this country duty free.
The information upon which they are act
ing, coming from Kansas City tailor, is that
q regular syndicate has been established for
the sale of suits by London tailor merchants
to Americans, whose orders are obtained
when they visit the other side of the At

The plan upon which the members of the
syndicate act is this: Several OF those in
terested will bring over, say, a dozen suits
under the wearing apparel provisions.
These are distributed to customers by
branches in this city, Kansas City, st. Louis
and New York. The investigation is likely
to reveal the names of some prominent
people who take advantage of the scheme.
