not believe that a great popular move

President P~lmer at the Chi ago D d'catiou.
Anniversaries are the punctua,ions of

the monuments of the heroes and the

why Blaine Resigned.

The Public Ledger, of Philadelphia, gives
what it alleges is the true reason for Mr..
Blaine's sudden and wholly unexpected
resignation from the cabinet. At the time
of the resignation it was generally thought
that it wa" intended 70 give notice to his
friends that he was free to accept tho presi-
Dental nomination, According to the
Ledger'S story there was no such intention
on his part. The President forced him out
of the cabinet by making 1t impossible for
him to remain any longer without loss of
self-respect.
1t seems Mr.. Blaine had appointed meet
ing with the Canadian commissioners who
were in Washington on the invitation of
the President to continue negotiations rel
alive to matters pending between the two
countries. At this meeting the Presidents
special commissioner, Mr.. Foster, openly
insulted Mr. Blaine by stating to him that
the President would not approve his views
Mr. Blaine adjourned the meeting at once
and Immediately sent his resignation to the
President. a
If this story is correct, and it is more
than probable that It is or it would not
have been printed in so conservative paper
as the Public Ledger, the resignation was a
move of the Presidents and not of Mr..
Blaine's on the political chessboard. All
the speculation. therefore, which attributed
the resignation as bid by Mr.. Blaine for
the nomination at Minneapolis was wrong.
The President believed that Mr.. Blaine's
resignation on the eve Of the meeting of the
republican national convention would in
jure Mr.. Blaine, rather than help him, and
he was right. 1t is.probable that the Presi-
dent is a much shtewder politician than
many Of the leaders'of his own party have
been willing to believe

He looked around for an electric bell, but that
