The Tattoo or History.
Every man who ever amounted to
anything at all had his enemies. Even
George Washiugton, "the thyt, the last,
the best; the Cinciunatus of the West,"
had contemporaries to envy and decry
him. His enemies are dead, their cal
umnies are forgotton, but the FaJer ef
his Country lives on. immortal and im
perishable, enshrined among the great
names of the world.
Abraham Lincoln was in his day the
target for unmeasured abuse: his very
nomination was regarded as an outrago
and an insult by those who thought
that Seward should have been the chosen
of the Republican convention. At the
receut convention, which nominated
James G. Blaine" there was a handful
of so-called Independents who thought
that Edmunds snould have, been the
nominee, and. failing him, they desired
nobody. The Edmunds following in 1884
was by no means as large or as respect
able as was the Seward following in
18G0, but in James G. Blaine the
country has a man from whom it may
expect as much in time of doubt or
difficulty as. ever it received from Lin
clon. Seward is gone. Edmunds is
buried out of sight beneath a mountain
of Republican votes, but in Blaine we
have a man in whom the glories of Lin
coln will live again. 'lhe very spito
and venom of the attacks made upon
him show how formidable he is in the
eyes of his enemies. With such weap
ons Washington was assailed nearly a
centun- ago; they were turned against
Lincoln; they were leveled at Garfield's
breast but asked the country (as it
will be asked in November) how much
they regard them. No more and no
less" than Blaine regards them to-day.
Part' spite will have its tling; no
quarry is too noble for the campaign
raud-slingers.
But take the majority of the party;
take the great concensus of public opin
ion, and see what it thinks of Blaine.
Take the great political papers of the
West and read of Blaine. He is no
half-way politician no shirker from
his party's ranks in the tents of Inde
pendence. He is a Republican of Re
publicans, and represents all thai is
noblest in the grand old party. He was
in it at its birth, and so fixed in
his principles that he will be in it at its
death if it dies within his time. Hi is
hated by the opposition more intenely
than any other Republican, because he
is the most intense Republican living.
He is not onlv in accord with his party.
but is in the extreme advance. He
hated slavery with a hatred that had
no limits, and he hated all of its out
growths. He is a believer in protection
to American industry; he is a staunch
upholder of National integrity: he is a
champion of equal rights and of honest
money.
No wonder his opponents are afraid
of him. No wonder that weak-ki;ecd
Republicans shrink from the path that
he treads so boldly. He is the ablest
statesman in America, and .the bravest.
He never held a principle that he was
afraid of: and he never shrank from its
logical consequences.
Of course, he has been maligned as
few men have. He possesses a power

nomination of a friend of President
Garfield has aroused a feeling which
nothing can resist. Tho same in-1
tluences and interests prevail to a great
extent in Indiana, and the popularity of '
General Logan in both State-, with
public approbation of the manly Ameri- I
can policy of Mr. Hlaiiie, seem "to have
settled the matter as far as it can be
settled before the votes have been
actually cast and counted. It
is sir-
nuicaiit. too, tnat no Democrat now
talks of the oos.-ibilitv of Mieurinir the
votes of any Pacific States.
Pennsylvania, f course, is bevond
tlfiiitit. In X.v Knrtnil tlm W..i,.
lican ticket has shown less trength.
Maine, doubtless, will give a heavy ma
jority for it, and no one doubts the re
sult in New Hampshire, Vermont or
Rhode Island. In estimating the prob
abilities in Massachusetts, it mut be re-

menwereu tnat tne itcpuoiicau major-
ity for President Garfield was 47.818.
General Butler gained maiiv votes
which no other Democratic candidate
can. As against any other, the major-
ity to be overcome is too large to per-
mit the State to be considered doubt
ful. The protest of 1,iOO voters, half
Democratic, does not mean much in a
State where a transfer of 20,000 votes
would not change the result. Con
necticut is exceedingly slow to change,
and its majority of 'J, GOO for Garfield is
really more ditlicult to overcome than
the majority of 47,H)0 in Massachusetts.
The States already enumerated cast
W.i electoral votes, and would elect
Blaine and
Loran
if no other State
should bo carried
But the Republicans have
better
chances of success than the Democrats
in New York and New Jersey, on ac
count of the taritl" issue, and because of
the remarkable strength of Mr. Blaine's
American policy with the people. Other
reasons will occur to every well-informed
reader. It may be said with
strict truth that it is more probable that i
Mr. Blame will carry either of these
States than that he will lose any one of
those above enumerated as easting i03

In addition, there is West Virginia,

Brides, the development of industries
has given new ideas and aims to thou

to farmers, who find a new market for
products. The building of railroads,
also, has brought into the State nvw
