ardent republican residing I'm Pomona, Cal,
believed that trap could be laid to decoy
Englshmen into admitting that on account
of his free trade pToclvites the election
of Cleveland was what England most de-
sired Accordingly he wrote TO several men
in public life in England and Canada, and
under the guise of an Englishman lately nat
uraliZed as an American, asked them how
to vote to add to the prosperity of the
mother as well as the adopted country.
To this he signed the name Charles +.
Murchison." Lord Sackville was the only
one who replied. His letter, which at once
fours its way into print, was an amusing
mixture of stupidity and impertinence. AS a
result he was packed off, bag and baggage,
to England
The letter proved a splendid weapon in
the hands of Blaine, who was then TAX
ing an active interest in the canvass for
Harrison. At the great lrsh-American
meeting held in New York just after the
Murchison letter was published the cor
respondence was used with telling effect.
Thousands OF copies of the Murchison let
ter and Lord Sackville's reply were pre-
pared especially for this meeting, and on the
top of the paper used the British crest
was emblaZoned in all its glory. Just before
Blaine mounted the platform perfect shower
of these circulars was thrown from the
galleries of Madison Square Garden upon the
heads of the crowds on the floor. When
Blaine appeared every one in the audience
had a copy of the letter in his hand, and
when the Plumed knight took up the sub
ject the effect was magical Every one
declared that night that Blaine was at his
best.
The campaign of 1892 was singularly free
