When Gov Hayes was nominated on the sew

Blaine accepted their defeat with good grace.
Mr. Blaine entered the next convention, held
at Chicago, June 2, 1890, with almost exactly
the same number Of supporters that had
striven for him in the preceding contest but
the persistency OF those who were determined
to nominate Grant for a third term made a
compromise candidate again necessary, and
the nomination fell to James A. Garfield by
whom he was chosen as secretary of state.

The story OF the convention of 1884, which
nominated Mr.. Blaine on the first ballot Is
fresh in all minds. The nominating speech OF
Judge West, of Ohio, was one of the most
forceful ever delivered in presenting the name
OF any man to a convention; and the history of
his defeat by Grover Cleveland in still green

When Mr.. Blaine returned to Washington in
the fall OF 1888, buoyant in mind after declining
the use OF his name as the candidate for presi.

Fees of state Officers.

NASHVILLE, Jan. 27.-The bill to fix
salaries of certain State officers, which
promises to become law, has evoked
widespread comment in all parts of the
State, and is considered TO be the most
significant move in the direction of re-
form that has been instituted in Ten
nessee for years. A great many mem
bers Of the assembly express the opinion
that the knife has been applied too
radically, but as the spirit of the meas
ure meets their approval they will vote
for it. There is not two score of mem.
ters who will oppose the measure when
1t comes to a vote.
