For almost third of q century James Giles

war until last May. when he created a senss-
ton throughout the country by suddenly re-
signing his place in the Harrison cabinet, he

He entered national politics in 1862, when he
was elected a member OF congress from Maine.

He was a man Of impulses. lie reached con-
illusions easily and carried out hastily formed

President Horizon said that the news of MIR.

preston upon him. While recognizing the
fact from the statements of the physicians and
member Of the family thst ultimate recovery
in Nr. BlRines case WAS improbable, he was
still wholly unprepared for il at this time, aud
the announcement had bsen a great shock To
him. He felt unable under the circumstances
TO enter upon the consideration OF any public
business with the mbers of his cabinet most
of whom had been associated with Mr.. Blaine
in the Official family relations. and, therefore,
after the expression OF regret and sorrow at
the loss sustained by themselves anu the coun-
try in Mr.. BlGine's death, the meeting of the
cabinet was adjourned.

The First Thing to shake Public Confidence

The First Thing To shake Public Confidence
in Mr. Blaine.
The session of 1876 was the stormiest period
in the pyrotechnical career Of Mr.. Blaine. A
general amnesty bill was brought forward re-.
moving the disabilities OF the participants in
;he rebellion which had been imposed by the
fourteenth amendment Mr.. Blaine moved to
amend it by making 40 exception OF Jefferson
Davis. He gave as his reason for this that il
was not because Davis was the chief of the con.
fedsrscy, but that he VISA the author of the
murders and crimes Of Andersonville His
speech in support OF his position
produced great excitement and aroused
the bitterest partisan feeling. Benjamin ID. Hill
OF Georgia defended Davis, and preferred
ern soldiers in Northern prisons. particularly at
Camp Morton in indianapolis.
IL was shortly after this episode that Blaine
became the subject of = violent personal as
ssult when he was openly accused OF oorrup-
ton. IL was just previous TO the campaign Of
1876 Charges were circulated that he had re-
ceived from the Union Pacific railroad COM
pany $4,000 for some underlined services. The
Mulligan letters were made public. and Blaine
never recovered from the effects of their pub

briefly told. They we're letters written By
Blaine 10 Mr.. Fisher concerning land
grant railroad stocks and bonds, and
they were held with Fishers consent
by his bookkeeper. James Mulligan. The ru-
mors of Baines connection with certain rail-
road transactions began circulating in the
spring OF 1876 and on April ~ they became so

iff of 1916 or the same as modified in

that it served passably well in practical
operation for fifteen years. And yet as
compared with the existing tariff, it
was simplicity itself. 1t can be taken
as the general plan. and SO modified as
to adapt it to the changed conditions of
