.THE uNcRowNED KING"

James Gillespie Blaine died on Friday
morning of last week at his bone in
Washington. He was born in Washing
ton County, Pa, January 81, 1880.
AS has been the case with so many of
our famous men, Mr.. Blaine taught
school for few years after graduation,
and then studied law. Having married
Maine lady he removed to Augusta in
that State, where he became editor of a
newspaper, and coon won great political
influence.
He was sent to the State Legislature
several terms and was made Speaker of
that body several times. He was sent to
Congress soon thereafter, serving IA years
in that capacity, six of which he was
Speaker. He was elected Senator in 1876,
and held this position until ne resigned
to become President Garield's Secretary
of State in 1881. He resigned this posi-
ton also, and was not in Office again until
he accepted the same place in President
Harrison's Cabinet nearly four years ago.
His sudden resignation Of this place last
June terminated his public service.
At every Presidential election since
1875 he has been candidate. While the
coveted nomination seemed almost within
his grasp several times, it was only in
1884 that he won before the Republican
Convention. In that year the Democrats
pitted honest Grover Cleveland against
the scheming politician from Maine and
the American people chose the man of
unwavering principle, and the ambitious
and brilliant and magnetic but tricky
Blaine was repudiated by discriminat-
ing public.
He died bitterly disappointed at having
failed to win the Presidency, as have
many men who had reason to hope that
their party would reward them with that
great gift.
Blaine was the star of his party, and 80
great was his influence and popularity,
Notwithstanding he had sullied his char
acter by using his official position aud
importance for financial gain, that he
had been called by his host of admirers
the "nncrowned king.
The paragraph quoted below seems to
be fair estimate of the character Of the
man:
s'No man in our history has left record
so full of instruction to am bilious youth.
Gifted and fascinating in his personality,
favored alike by Nature and by Fortune,
he enjoyed every opportunity to win not
merely the Presidency, but also enduring
fame as great statesman. He lacked
only one thing principle; but the lack
of this was fatal. ''Smartest" of all can-
didates that ever ran for the Presidency,
he alone lost the prize because his own
party distrusted his honesty. 1t is thus
chiefly as amelancholy warning that the
name of James g. Blaine goes down to
history,n
