One Chance to Defeat Harrison

The tenacity with which some OF the
leading republicans Insist that Mr.. Blaine
shall permit his name to GO before the Min
neapolis convention indicates the existence
of belief that he would accept the nomi-
nation on one condition, Notwithstanding
his letter to Chairman Clarkson positively
refusing to be a candidate, and that il that
it is offered to him spontaneously and unan-
imously. If it should be offered to him in
that way he could not very we'll refuse it.
But what prospect is there of such An
Offers AS far as any one can see there isn't
any. The President will have strong
friends and able politicians in charge OF bis
interests at Minneapolis, and they will take
care that no effort to stampede the conven-
ton to Mr.. Blaine as soon as it assemblies is
successful
A great many delegates are instructed for
the President and they will cast their ballots
for him as long as he has any chance for
the nomination. 1t is difficult to sec, there
fore, how the only condition on which Mr..
Blaine would accept the nomination could
be brought about. Chairman Clarkson. MIR.
Platt and other anti-Harrison republicans
pretend to believe that the President will
not be renominated. If they are sincere 1t
is impossible to see upon what they base
their belief. 1t is certain that
only Mr.. Blaine could prevent the renomi-
nation of the President, and it is quite clear
that he will not attempt to prevent it. ex-
cept, perhaps, upon the improbable condi-
ton already mentioned. 1t may be safely
assumed, therefore, that unless there is
something in the political situation of which
the public has not been informed, the Presi-
dent will be chosen without much trouble
to lead his party in the presidential cam
paign.

sara+or H,lI'e Onnortunitv.

The rumor that Senator Hill was prepsr-
ing letter of withdrawal as a presidential
candidate that was autographed from New
York Sunday night was based, doubtless,
upon an article which appeared in Sundays
! Herald over the signature OF F, r. Cou-
dert, the president of the Manhattan Club.
Mr.. Coudert is a distinguished lawyer Of
New York city aud q very prominent dom
ocrat. he has taken leading part in the
anti-Hill movement in New York, but he is
not among those who have an unkindly
feeling for Senator Hill. On the contrary e,
he has always spoken OF him in compli-
mentary terms. He joined the movement
against him, however, because he objected
to the methods adopted by him to get the
New York delegation. He regards him as
an exceedingly able leader of the Demo-
cratic party. and, If Senator Hill should
get the nomination, would give him
hearty support. He sees very plainly, how
ever. that the democracy of the whole
country outside of New York. is against
Senator Hill, and, therefore, he thinks it
folly on the part Of the senator to insist
upon continuing to be presidential candt-
date.
In his article in the Herald Mr.. Coudert
says the opportunity Is still left to Senator
Hill to take commanding position by
striving to heal perilous Discussions and
restore harmony to the party in New York.
Mr.. Coudert says that Senator Hill has
felt the pulse of the people and knows that
it throbs in harmonious beats for one man
and one man only"
Has Senator Hill the wisdom and
magnanimity to utilize the opportunity
which Mr.. Coudert points out9 1t is clear
that he cannot get the nomination, and
there is some ground for saying that he can
do great deal to prevent Mr.. Cleveland
from getting it. If, when the convention
assemblies, he and his friends should exert
themselves TO convey the impression that
the faction Of democrats they represent
would not give Mr.. Cleveland an honest
support, if the latter should be nominated,
they might succeed in making
the convention believe that Mr.. Cleveland
could not carry New York. aud that, there
fore. It would not be wise to nominate him.
By adopting such a course Senator Hill
would do himself incalculable harm, be-
cause the impression would get abroad that
he would rather defeat the will Of the demo-
cratic masses than that Mr.. Cleveland should
get the nomination. With that impression
lodged in the minds Of democrats he would
have very little chance OF political prefer
ment in future.
But if he should frankly say that, believ-
ing be cannot get the nomination himself,
the faction Of which be is member will
give MIR. Cleveland an enthusiastic support.
if the latter is nominated, he would so
strengthen his hold upon his party that it
would be, difficult, If not impossible, to pre-
vent him from getting the nomination in
1896. 1t remains to be seen whether he is
capable OF adopting a course so unselhsh
and magnanimous.

A number of delegations to the national
convention at Minneapolis will each adopt
some sign by which its members may be
recognized at a glance. The Blaine Club of
Chicago will wear silk hats and dark suits
and carry canes the Young Mems Club of
Baltimore will wear brown linen busters
and high white hats and carry star-spangled
umbrellas. Delegates from most of the
southern states will wear no distinctive
dress, but their sign will be an extended
right hand, palm up.

Mr., Wanamaker is to leave the public

When Consul General John c. New ar
rived in New York from London on Satur.
day he found an army of reporters awoit-
lug him at the dock. To them he declared
emphatically that his visit had no political
Significance; that he had returned on purely
personal business, and not for the purpose
of assisting Gen. Harrison to obtain the
nomination. When the young men heard
him make these assertions in cold blood,
and without turning hair, they no longer
wondered at his success as a republican pol
itician, nor that Gen. Harrison selected
him to represent his administration In a
foreign country.

1t may have struck readers of the NJ oRN-

IAN Old Soldier" In New York opposes
capital punishment because he thinks it is
not sufficiently effective in checking and pre-
venting crimes for which it is inflicted. He
recommends imprisonment for life, with
deprivation of beer. tobacco and society.
The Louisville Courier-Journdl takes a
different view. 1t thinks the loss of beer
and tobacco would be a torture, which is
clearly unconstitutional. "Old Soldier

Jerry Simpson is afflicted with one of the
most malignant cases Of big head that has
ever been known at the capital. Jerry
they say, has his eve on the vice presid ency
and if he cannot get that he will accept o
seat in the Senate. He aims higher than
the mark he expects to hit He depends
upon his wonderful new political organiza-
ton to assist him in achieving his senatorial
ambition. To a correspondent Of the New
York Times a few days ago Jerry said
IL was true that he would not
run for congress again this fall. He said
he desired to be 'foot free" in the coming
campaign, SO that ne might work for the
alliance on the stump" 1t is remarkable
how these third party Statesmen" all
''work for the alliance" when they want
anything, and work for the Peoples party
when they have got it. Simpsons plan is
to work for the alliance" to indorse the
third party's national ticket, which he
hopes will be headed by L. L. Polk aud
Jerry Simpson. He figures that il Polk is
nominated for President a northern
man will be chosen for second
place, and it is said that he
has already made arrangements with Polk
to be that man. OF course he cannot hope
TO become Vice President, but he calculates
that the prominence he will have attained

a Paper That KNOWS It All.

The New York World makes itself
ridiculous by pretending to know a great
deal more than It does. Much Of what it
publishes as news doesn't prove to be SCAT
least that ia the impression that some of its
readers have. Only q few days ago it
published story from its Denver CORE
spondent to the effect that Mayor Grant, of
New York. who was there, was such a
physical wreck that he couldn't
talk coherently, and that when
when politicswas mentioned in his presence
his eyes bulged out to such an extent that
1t was possible to hang ones hat upon them.
Mayor Grant, who arrived in New Yorka
day or two ago, declared there was no
foundation whatever for the yarn-that, 10
fact, he did not talk with a World re-
porter in Denver.
In its Sunday edition the World stated
that it was able to announce the programme
OF the antieHarrison republicans. 1t said
the programme lis TO nominate Mr.. Blaine
regardless ofanything which he has said or
may say before the convention meets. IL
he shall then refuse to accept, the conven-
tion would make another choice-and Mr..
Blaine would enjoy the unique distinction
of being the only man who ever declined a
presidential nomination. 1t is a very pretty
programme as it stands"
A very pretty programme, indeed Ana
now that the Harrison republicans have
been made acquainted with it, will they not
do what they can to make it a success? The
snti-Harrison republicans must be very
anxious to honor Blaine-so anxious that
they are willing to give him an opportunity
to decline presidential nomination.
or course, if the programme that the
World has announced is not carried out 1t
will be an easy matter to say that it was
abandoned, whether it ever had any ex-
istence or not. But events will crowd upon
each other SO during the meeting Of the
convention that it will be forgotten that
the World ever announced a programme
for the anti-Harrison republicans.
