WILL BLAINE STAND?

The question no longer is, will Mr. Blaine
be nominated ? but. Will he stand7
II the man from Maine shall maintain
his attitude of the past ten days-or since
the World first announced the plan of the
anti-Harrison leaders to nominate him in
spite OF everything-that plan will probably
be carried out.
Silence will be accepted as consent. it ls
already so accepted. And if the republican
party can have Blaine as It's candidate II is
scarcely conceivable that it will not take
him, even by constraint.
And yet there is doubt. After putting
aside nomsnation which he might have
had In 1888, and declining to be considered
a candidate in February last, the question is
asked how Mr. Blaine can consent now to
accept nomination that must be fought
for and that will leave bitter heart -burnings
behind.
Does Mr. Blaine simply coyet the unique
distinction of being the only American who
ever declined a presidential nomination
actually rendered?
or are the big four, Reed, Platt, Quay
and Clarkson, using Mr. Blaine as cover
behind which to rally an opposition that
mat may be utilized eventually for another
-for Reed himself, or Sherman, Allison OF
Lincoln?
What are the little games inside the big
game? Read the World daily, as the play
progresses, and You will find out.

General Wanamaker under oatn is an af-
fidayit submitted 20 the House Committee

without cost to the government, Mr. Wan

that after all these conditions had been

to have another company do the work at
q considerable cost to the governmont, and
that 1880 shaI es of stock in the other
company were deposited in bank for Mr.
Wanamaker and others. In brief, he
charges the Postmaster General with ly-

The following letter written by Jas H
Manning, one OF Hill's delegates to the
Chicago convention, is significant. 1t was
written to The Rockford (IlI.) Star.
In rerIv to your letter of recent date
relative TO the political outlook in this state
permit me to say that since New York
State expressed her preference in the Feb
.ruary state convention there have been
many changes in the condition of affairs.
The great wave of popular feelihg-in favor
of Mr. Cleveland is not without its effect in
this state, and if the state convention were
to be held today the result reached by the
February convention would not find in
dorsement AS the matter stands now the
New York delegation is bound by the
convention resolution to present the
Eame of Mr. Hill, but If more than one bal
lot is taken IN the national convention,
which is rather apr to be the case, the at
tifude of the New York delegation will, !,
on the second and subsequent ballots. re-
feet the choice of the delegation and not
necessarily the choice of the February
state convention
Mr. Cleveland has many friends in this

The Herald editor, who, IN mad effort
TO elect Mr. Kees, its pet candidate, and for
this purpose gave out charges that Mr.
jackson had bribed the Harrisburg paper
for its support, may now, in calm moment,
and in the light of the returns, see how
much it accomplished by its campaign Of
attack upon the personal character of N
jackson. The scheme was to weaken Mr.
Jackson in Harrisburg, Halsey, Shedd, Tan
gent, Orleans and the four Albany precincts.
In all these precincts Mr. Jackson ran ahead
of his ticket If there is anything in the
personal character of candidate that rem
ders him unfit for the office, then may the
newspaper attack him, but, in doing so, it
cannot be regarded as honest unless it sub
mits It's proof And its proof should be such
that it can not be overcome by other evil
dence.

WILL BLAINE RUN.

Blaine has resigned as Secretary of State
Of the United States and his resignation has
been accepted. The following is the cor
respondence:
DEPARTMENT OF STATE,
WARRINGTON, d. c., June 4, ISo2.
To the President: respectfully beg leave
to submit my resignation of the office Of sec
retary of state Of the United States, to which
was appointed by you on the sth Of March,
1889, The condition of public business in
the department of state justiies my request
ing that my resignation may be accepted i'm
mediately. l have the honor to be, very re-
spectfully, yoar obedient servant,
JAMES G. BLAINE.
A short time after the receipt of the above
at the White House President Harrison sent
the following to Mr. Blaine:
EXEsUTIvE MANSION, June 4, ISo2.
To Secretary of State: Your letter OF this
date, rendering your resignation OF the office
OF secretary Of state Of the United States, has
been received. The terms in which you state
your desires are such as to leave me no choice
but to accede to your wishes at once Your
resignation IL therefore accepted.
Very respectfully yours,
BENJAMIN HARRISON.
To Hon. James G. Blaine.
These formal letters show that there has
been a regular muss in the cabinet. Harrison
and his friends are accusing Blaine Of bad
faith, and If he now stands as a candidate a,
Minneapolis no further proof will be needed i.
Whether he will or nof will he made knoNn
in few hours. But will he be nominated
While il looks very much that way yet the
DEMOCRAT does not believe that the republi
cans will nominate man who has so many
marks of unavailability. How can the re-
rublicans afford to nominate man whose
state Of health would require during the whols
campaign daily issue ofphysicians bulletins
But that is but 1.-THE Of the unavailability tC

A COSTLY FAILURE.

Notwithstanding the exhibition of tin
plate in the windows of protection news
papers and the splendid enthusiasm mani
tested over our occasional discovery Of
enough American tin for the composition of
pig, importations of plate have been in
creasing Of late.
For a time the importation of tin plates
fell off because the consumers Of tie article
the makers of roofs, pans and cans, supplied
themselves against the future between the
passage of the M.Kinley act, Oct lst, 1890
and July lst, 1891, when the tin plate sched-
ule went into effect.
Before the Mckinley act went into effect
this country imported in 1889 on an average
every month 60,662, ,164 pounds of tin plate
and in 1890 an average of 56,222, OBS
pounds. In March of this year there was
imported 67,499, 1850 pounds. In other
words, the extra stock imported while the
duty was one cent per pound, against the
evil day when the duty was to be 2 2-10 cents,
has been exhausted and the deficiency must
|
be made up.
DIt costs good deal of money to make
this deficiency good. The average monthly
duty paid in 1889 was s606,62l and in 1896
1862, 2,220. But the tax on the imports Of
March, 1892. was $1.5S4.977. In other
words, the country is paying at the rate OF
about 81 600, 900 month for an experiment
that has not succeeded.
Every one who buys pan or tin pail OF
a can Of vegetables is contributing towards
fund of about sl2 0O0,0 600 to encourage the
industry Of tin plate making in this country
and although the encouragement has been
going on for about q year til evident, from
the fact that we are still importing all the

THE TREASURE STATE.

Montana is the largest of the newly ad-
mitted states; in fact, it is as large as
Washington and North Dakota combined.
1t is one sixth larger than the United King
dom of Great Britain and Ireland. Ii is
the third state III the sisterhood, ranking
next after Texas and California. 1t contains
143, 776 square miles, and is therefore the
size of the states of New York, New Jersey,
Pennsylvania, Maryland, Virginia and West
Virginia all rolled together 1t is about
$40 miles in length, and half as wide. As
it is approacne from the east, it seems to be
continuation of the bunch grass plains
land which makes up all of North Dakota.
But almost all at once upon entering Mon
tana the monotony of the great plateau is
relieved by its disturbance into hills, which
grow more and more numerous, and take on
greater and greater bulk and height, until.
when one-third of the state has been passed,
the earth, is all distorted with mountains
and mountain spurs. These are the fore
runners of the rockies, which, speaking
roughly, make up The final or western third
of this grand and imperial new state. A
glance at the map will call to the attention
the apparently contradictory fact that the
principal seats of population in the state
are directly in the Rocky Mountain region
This is difficult for the majority Of readers
to account for. They think of the Rocky
Mountains as great bastions of bare stone
and such, indeed, the maine range is; but
the spurs and lesser or side ranges are grass
clad or wooded elevations, and even amid
the vertible Rockies themselves are innum
erable valleys coated with the richest, most
nutritious pasturage to be found anywhere
in the world In or beside such valleys are
the cities built there to be close to the mines
that are Deing worked in the mountains

Nothing could be more erroneous than the
supposition that the nomination of Blaine
by the republicans would call for the nomi-
nation of Hill by the democrats. 1t would
intensity the demand for the nomination Of
Cleveland by the democrats. The presenta
tion of Blaine by the republicans would re-
quire Of the democracy the presentation of a
character as unlike Blaine's as possible.
That would wellnigh peremptorily prescribe
the democratic nomination of C eyeland.

POSTAL PRESS CENSORSHIP.

The danger is no, yet past in the matter oi
postal surveillance of the press. The senate
bill giving to the Postmaster-General the
power to exclude from the mails whatever be
may choose to regard as improper has been
uniavorably reported, but there remains
substitute bill in the House and there is rea-
son to fear that an effort will be made to rush
it through both houses in the hurried last
bours of the sessi:n if it cannot be passed
earlier. Unluckily, under the lottery decision,
such bill would be constitutional and there
is the greater reason for vigilence in prevent
ing its passage.
The measure purports to be nothing more
than an extension Of the law which forbids the
mailing Of ol scene literature. In fact, it
makes Of the Postmaster General an abso :.
lutely arbitrary censor Of the press. auihoriz-
ing him to determine what matter shall be ex-
eluded and arming him with power actually TO
suppress the entire future mail circulation OF
any newspaper which he may regard or pre-
tend to regard as offending against the act.
1 And the prohibitions OF the act a'e 50 loosely
and vaguely specified that POstmas,er-Gen-
eral could find excuse under IT for suPpressing
almost any newspaper at will.
No such bill should be so much as consid-
cred in congress. There is absolutely nc
need for any new legislation on the subject.
There are state laws enough against obscene
literature, and the states are competent to m~ks
ttem more rigid If necessary. The mails are
already adequately guarded BY the Posta
avs. The new enactment is net wanted fol
any good purpose. 1t is sought only that I
may be used opp iessively. 1t proposes iC
place in the hands Of the Postmaster-Gen=ra
power of press censorship which it would b
in high degree hazardous to place in ths
hands Of anybody
The thing 10 do ;-iih all such bills is to xii
hem.- Woyid.

What of the state which ought to be be.

licans who would encompass Harrison's
defeat take no notice of what Indiana re-
pubIIcans thirk Of this snubbing of their
president--their own Hoosier neighbor of
good stock. 1t Is very certain that the
nomination of Blaine win take Indiana out
of the uncertain column and put it in the

Mr. Thomas 3 Reed announces that he
is for Blaine because Harrison rejected his
candidate for Collector of the Port of
Portland, ''where he lives" A blow in
such a vital spot is, of course, an unpar-
donable sin in the code of down-east
craftsmanship. Blaine should feel highly
fiattered by such frank support, with all
the generous expectancy which 1t imports.
