THE HOUSE WHERE MIR. BLAINE DIED.
strove for twenty-five years to reach the
presidency. He paid down the honest
coin of great talents and great endeavor
He had merit and accomplishment. His
capacity for the highest place has not
been questioned by any. America has
not produced man who in native gifts
and brilliant attainments was more fitted
for the presidential Office than James G.
Blaine.
But he missed it! 1t was with him a
quest and struggle of Tantalus. Once and
again the glittering prize was within his
grasp. At Cincinnati in 1876 only twen-
ty-eight votes were lacking to his nomina-
ton. Certainly had he been nominated
he would have received as many votes as
Hayes. In that convention the faces of
his rivals looked leeringly from the car
Gus rooms, and Blaine was beaten. In
1880 he was again in the arena and well
nigh successful. In that year the nomi-
nation would certainly have brought
election, as it brought the prize to Gar
field.
Four years more, and the man from
Maine captures the preliminary choice
and is launched on the sea of the can
vass. He manages his own campaign
The antecedents of success are com.
passed. The two pivotal states are won,
and then, on the eve of the election, the
greatest of the two is suddenly trans
ferred to the enemy by farcical per
sonal incident which brought defeat t..
the great leader and gave to an unknown
preacher such fame as Empedocles got
for jumping into Htnal
The quest went on. Another four year
period passed, and Blaine stood obviously
on the horizon. OF a certainty he might
have had the nomination. Probably he
would have taken it but for the belief
which he doubtlessly entertained that at
least one of the pivotal states would vote
against him. The man whom he had
employed four years before as his law
yer walked off with the prize and strobe
into the White House! A second time
Blaine is secretary of state. 1t might
well appear that the phantom of the
presidency had now vanished, but not
so. Probably it never vanished from the
mind of any one who has once seen the
vision. Could we penetrate the mind of
Blaine during the last quadrennium of
his life we should see the cross currents
of early ambitions and of mature reason
flowing together and breaking in long
lines of foam.
They who find interest in such facts as
national conventions, and who suppose
that bodies of that kind are really forces
in human history, may well discover
food in the Minneapolis convention of
1892. Let it be said that if ever Blaine
was outwitted by a competitor it was
by Benjamin Harrisonl With the ap
proach of the presidential year Blaine
found himself impeded with obstacles,
weighted with circumstances, hobbled

that Blaine himself might be thus de-
stroyed! We Will try it. He has pur-
chased railway bonds. lie has received
moneys from the Union Pacific. He is
waist deep in the securities of the Little
Rock and Fort Smith railway. He shall
be investigated Mulligan shall produce
his letters. We will have scene. 1t is
the 9th of June, 1876. Blaine rises
from the speakers desk and holds aloft
bundle of papers. 1t is the incrimi-
mating package. He himself will read
them through one by one. Certainly he
has humiliation and modification to do
it, but he will read them! Courage is
necessary for such task, but the letters
must be read. II invite the confidence
of 44,0O0,0OO of my countrymen while |
read these letters from this desk" The
reading was completed. None could
have done it better. The speaker then
turned upon the chairman of the com
mittee and scornfully charged him with
purposely Withholding and suppressins
a communication which would have alb
solutely exonerated him from the charges
which had been circulated against his
honor. The crisis broke in another tri-
umph, perhaps the most dramatic and
sensational ever witnessed in the house
of representatives.
Blaine has been held to stern account
by the American people in the matter of
the Mulligan correspondence. So be it.
He is neither wholly cleared nor wholly
condemned. The transaction was ambig-
uous and tortuous In the retrospect it
hath ugliness, 1t should be said, however,
that Blaine in this matter was more to
be blamed for acting and regeneration
than he was for the original business
This trait has been one of the prime
weaknesses Of the great character before
u.s. While he possessed many kinds of
audacity he was lacking in certain ele-
ment of moral courage. 1t was the bane
of his life to have weakness at certain
points where he should have been strong
Satan never uttered a more sterling
truth than when he said, Spirit, to be
weak is to be miserable" Blaine in
some particulars has been both weak
and miserable. If, for example, he had
simply said 81 made honorable purchase
of railway bonds: it is nobody's bust
ness, and what are you going to do about
it," the matter would have ended.
James G.. Blaine would be president of
the United States. This was the domi-
nant passion of his soul and life What
ever interposed between him and his
purpose was in the nature of an eclipse
1t is a strange thing that American
statesmen have not yet learned that the
presidency of the United States goes by
accident and indirection, and not by
ambition, contrivance and endeavor
Who has long sought the presidency and
gained it? The great Office not only goes
without the ambition of the winner, but
with little regard to his merit Blaine

man outlived him, but did not reach his
stature or his fame He attained the
grand cllmacteric and went at the age of
slxty-three. He had an unclouded sun
set. His last days were spent within
sight of the Capitol. Thither his gaze
Will be turned no more. Against him
all avenues of earthly hope and ambition
are closed forever, but he went away
with the radiance of great life linger-
ing around his couch. An imperishable
chaplet was held above his white and
honored head and the weeping genius of
his country hid for awhile her face when
his spirit issued forth into the shadows.

peillon he laid strong and ambitious
hand. He was determinative force
IN the financial measures upon which
the business and wealth of the
United States have found profitable
but unstable equilibrium. He pressed
forward with ceaseless activity the meas
ures of reconstruction. He ascended
the sharp and jutting crag of party
leadership. With the statesman's mo-
tive, not unmixed with the motive of the
politician, he flung himself into the
heated and imbittered debates of the
epoch.
The legislative career of Blaine was
touched in many parts with the first
penciling of those policies with which
his name has become associated. AL
ready we may discover in the tone of
his debates and the spirit of his outside
speeches the outgiyings of those views
which as secretary of state he was to
develop into permanency and system.
Freeland tribune. (Freeland, Pa.) 1888-1921, 1893-01-30

trymen calls for something more than
passing repetition of the facts of his
career. The mere facts were easily re-
cited. 1t were brief and cursory task
to recount the capital events and land
marks Of his life. Born in West Browns
vile, Pa. on the 31st of january, 1880:
educated first at home and afterward at
Washington college; teaching for short
time in o military school at Blue Lick
Springs, KY. finding there and taking
in marriage Harriet Stanwood, teacher
to teach in Philadelphia; going with his
young wife to her home in Maine and
making that state his future home;
editor at twenty-four of the Kenne-
bee Journal; associate editor of the Port
land Advertiser; bounding into politics;
reaching the legislature of Maine and
then a seat in congress; seven terms a
member of the house of representatives
and for six years speaker Of that body
briefly in the senate-an arena unsuited
to his genius; aspiring to the presidency
four times voted for in national conven
tions of his party and once nominated
twice secretary of state in the cabi-
nets of his competitors; leader of his
party; publicist; diplomatist of the first
rank; creator of policies national and in
ternational; statesman, author, man of
genius, and therefore an enigma-such
have been the critical stages and evolu-
tions of this remarkable career.
But biographical annals do not suffice
in the case before u.s. The SO called life
Of Blaine is already twice-told tale. 1t
is known in the quick memories of his
countrymen and to the world. Blaine
deserves rather - now that outward
bound he passes the remotest bar of hu-
man vision-to be fairly estimated, justly
interpreted to the understandings of his
countrymen, revealed without partiality
faithfully portrayed upon the screen in
the backward look of memory.
Blaine was favorably but paradoxical-
ly born-favorably because of the en-
placement of his birth. Pennsylvania is
one of the empire states of the Union
Out of her borders many of the great
have arisen. But he also came paradox
ically. He was born in Quaker COM
monwealth and of the cross blood of a
Presbyterian and Catholicl Was he
not from birth the product of contradict
ory conditions and inconsistent elements
of life?
1t concerns us little to note the cir
cumstances in the early career of James
G.. Blaine. His ambitions, intellectual
powers ard easy attainments were re-
marked from hia bovboo1 Tro5i+;o,,

TIN system Of plural voting under
which the people OF Great Britain suf.
fer, amounts to this: A man may vote
in every electoral district In which he
POSSESSES certain real estate interests.
1t follows from this that rich man
may have several votes, while poor
man has only one, or perhaps none at
all. This is perhaps according to the
dictum OF we'll known American
polit cal orator that property and
intel igence should rule the country"
But the effect in Great Britain was
that It made property rule whether in
telliRence had anything to say OF not.
Rich Eng lishmen are rather inclined
to be conservative in politics. SO
that the plural voting system helped
Tories more than Liberals. For this
reason the present Liberal government
will undertake to abolish the system.
