inherited fine qualities from an honorable
ancestry. and availing himself of opportuni-

his BIRTH AND EARLY LrrE
He was born on the 3lst Of January, 1880. at
West Brownsville, Pa, In house built by his
great grandfather before the war Of the revo-
ution, which still stands, though SCARED by
time. The Gillespies and the BIaines were
people of wealth and honorable standing be-
fore the revolution. Col. Blaine. who was
eommissary general of the northern depart
ment OF Wsshington's army during the revolu-
tion. whose services Washington held in high
esteem, was James g. Blaine's great grand
father. When a small child Jim Blaine
studied in little red school house near the
place OF his birth and lived the life of an active
country boy, who was not himself intended for
farmer. When eleven years old he went to
live with his uncle. Thomas Ewing in Ohio,
where his mothers father. Neal Gillespie, an
accomplished scholar. directed his studies
Later he attended Washington College at
Washington, Pa, graduating at the age of
seventeen. He won distinction a. q student
and, indicating that those traits Of character
that have been 30 marked in him during his
later life come from nature, it is recorded that

country. as it has been by all men, whether
friend or foe. who have got into the same at
mosphere with him. His associates in. public
life have been astonshed by his farsighted-
ness. when he has seen clearly things far be-
yond the range Of their vision and has been
prepared for future into which they could
not see. His quick perception, his impetuosity.
his wit, his eioquence, his courage, his grasp
OF great questions and his magnetic influence
over men have been a marvel to the public
men of his day. Most of the men OF the pres
ent who have claim to fame in craftsmanship
have been content to look up to Blaine as oc-
cupying an eminence beyond their reach, but
II will lie with another generation to appreciate
to the full his intellectual greatness, and il

great statesmen become national characters
because their regulations are widespread, are

than this a man Of the nation. His life has
made an impression on the national character.

Critics of contracted vision have asked what

| nomination again in 1888 and he could have had
the nomination by the votes of at least seven
eighths of the delegates had he been willing to
accept, but he had long before declined TO
again be candidate, and when IL became evil
dent that the convention would probably tender
him the nomination. in spite of his declination,
he wrote another letter declaring emphatically
that he would not accept the nomination if ten
dered to him.
The events preceding and attending the re-
cent Minneapolis convention are too recent al
most to need recountiug Naturally as the
time for the assembling of the republican ma
tional convention approached thousands of re-
publicans all over the land looked to Mr.. Blaine
to lead the party.
Mr.. Blaine was induced to permit his name to
be used as candidate and resigned his place
in the cabinet The administration forces,
however. were well organized and the nomi-
nation went TO Mr. Harrison.
Up to the end OF his career there has been
no name more potent to awake the enthusiasm
OF the whole country, largely without regard
to party, than that OF James @. Blaine.

For nearly thirty years Mr.. Blaine has beer
resident Of this city. He came here in the
early years Of the war member of the House
and with but brief Intervals he has been in pub
lie life ever since. His home was here perhaps
to greater extent than is usual with men in
public life While he never gave up his homo
and home life in Maine yet he also had home
in this city. It was only few years after CON-
ing here a. q member of Congress that he
bought the residence s2l 18th street. where he
lived for % many yeara This WAS about the
year 1859, when he was elected Speaker Of the
House for the hrst time. The house he bought
was ono Of . row which had just been built and

architectural features Of the city. Fernando

influence as James G. Blaine. He was the one
whom his party delighted to honor and whose
word was law with his followerA With the
exception Of the presidential! chair he achieved
every form of success possible to a states
man in a free country. He began at
the bottom Of the ladder Of fame. He
rose to the top and with his death there passes
away one of the fo-emos. figures in the history
of the republic. Few men lave had so many
ardent admirers and devoted friends. He made
many bitter enemies as well. This was but a
natural result Of the position he filled in life.
But now all animosity Is buried and friends and
political foes alike unite in expressions of re-
sret at the passing away OF ths Man from

our foreign relations, and be took an active part

HIS GREATEST AMBITION.

Blaine's greatest ambition was the CONNER
cial subjugation Of this continent This in his
mind did not imply political domination by the
United States over the other republics Of the
continent He did not seek annexation, but
his broad purposes for the advancement of the
interests of his own country necessarily carried
a benefit for the less powerful republics whose
rights he would not encroach upon and whose
liberties he would help TO preserve from the
insidious encroachments of foreign influence
The only band with which he would hold these
nations together 10 the band of sympathy and
mutual interest At the very opening Of his
book Twenty Years Of Congress" his ambi-
tons for his country are disclosed in tho ear

liable benefit of the acquisition Of Louisians

SCHOOL TEACHER AND JOURNALIST.

After leaving college he taught school at Blue
Lick Springs, Ky. 1t was as professor in the
military school there that he made the ac-
quaintance of the lady who nfterward became
his wife Later he went to Philadelphia, where
he taught school and studied law After pros
ecutinS his studies of law for two years he
abandoned that profession and in 1858 moved
to Maine, locating at Augusta. He bought the
hennebec journal and began his career as a
journalist, WHICH finally led him into politics.
where his great fame was won. After discon-
tinuing his associations with the Kennebec
journal he became editor of the Portland
Advertiser. In 1856 he was delegate to tho
convention at Philadelphia which nominated
Fremont Two years later be WAS elected to
the state Legislature and was afterward speaker
OF the lower house. The reputation he gained
there sent him to Congress in 1859, when began
his congressional career of twenty years. Dur
ing the Fortv-frst, Forty-second and Forty
third Congresses he was Speaker Of the House.
