Impaired by linrd work und ndvanclnfr
nfo tbat he cannot stand the strain and
burden of n national cnmpulgn. Thn
reasons which Impelled him to 'lllnp;
away ambition" In 1S8S apply in 1802,
only with additional force. Ho has
been a prodigious worker for oyer
thirty years, and now ho musthusband
his strength. That ho 1ms reached
that atago of life Is a matter of pro
found and poignant regret to an in
numerable multitudo of his fellow
citizens. No other public man has so
large and so ardent : following. For
many years he has been tho leading
champion of republicanism, and the
admiration for nit genius mauo nu
name a torch to kindle popular en
thusiasm. The animosities which wera
Inseparable from the aggresslvo nrabt
tlon of his earlier manhood have grad
ually died out Ho may bo said to hare
outllTcd thoso animosities. They are
interred with thu bones of his presi
dential ambition.
So long ns Mr. Illaine's candidacy
was 'A matter of doubt the considera
tion of the presidential question by the
republican party was heriously embar
rassed. His final and definite with
drawal from thu light leaves tho re
publicans with no lack of good ma
terial for a ticket, and tho various can
didates can now bo canvassed upon
their merits and availability. The
convention at Minneapolis will havo
no occasion to ask: "Is lllalno a candi
date?" That question has been an
swered, once for all, more than three
months in advance of tho convention,
thus giving the people ample time to
look ovor the field and for tho develop
ment of public opinion.
.. Ho long as Mr. Illaine's position was
uncertain littlo progress could bo made
in a popular choice between the several
aspirants. Ills great personality and
tho Uovotlou with which his friends
and admirers stood by him over
shadowed everything and mude con
centration anywhere Impossible. It is
woll known that President Harrison
would like the indorsement of a second
term, and ho has a ihost of friends
who would havo preferred him oven if
Blaine became a candidate. Certainly
fair-minded men will admit that he has
given the country an able and olean
administration that lias stood lor dis
tinctly republican klenik Even tho dem
ocrats must conccdo this much. Ho
has been thoroughly tiuo to the princi
ples of the republican party, and who
ever the caudldnto may be repub
licans will necessarily light upon the
line of battle laid down by his admin
istration. Hut no man has claim upon
the nomination at Minneapolis, and if
the national convention thinks it
would be politic to nominato some one
else it should not hesitate to do bo.
There is no lack of good material.
Ohio has in Gov. McKlnley a great and
magnetic statesman. Ho Is in fact the
representative man of the leading
ldeaa on which the campaign will be
fought Secretary Rusk would make a
remarkably availablo candidate. He,
would be a great vote-getter. Illinois
has in Senator Cullom, with his strong
resemblance to Abraham Lincoln, a
candidate whoso qualifications should
not be overlooked, and Gen. Alger has
done much to mnko himself popular
w ith the old sold lers. Hut theso names
do not exhaust tho list It is not too
Into for men unmentloncd, perhaps
unthought of, to bprlng up and be
come formidable candidates. Several
famous presidential races havo been
won by horses so dark as to be quito
indistinguishable at this dlstanco from
tho convention. Certainly there is no
tjood reason for republicans who expect
to) delegates to tlio Minneapolis con
vcntlod to go Into mourning for the
want of e'andidatos. Tho ublo and
available statesmen who aro willing to
lead the campaign fn DJ aro legion.
It only remains for the convention to
choose wisely. Chicago Inter Ocean.
A PARTY OF KICKERS.
Democracy, Having No Ideas t Its OKS,
Merely Objects.
Tho national democratic party pre
sents at tho present time a remarkable
spectacle. It camo into power in tlie
house of representatives on a "tidal
wave," and lias nn immense majority
in thot- body. Most of its representa
tives tliero were cleaned, or supposed
they wore, as "tariff roformors." A
majority of tliem were cuosen, pw
because they believed in tho coinage of
diver and gold dually and freoly by
our taints at tho ratio of sixteen to one.
It was natural to expert, tkefefor,
that the house would proceed at oae
to smash the tariff and open our mint
lor coinage to the sllvor of the world.
But tho democratic- party is quoer.
When it is out of office it professoe
allegiance, occasionally, to a definite
nrlnclcle. and commits itself to a cer
tain line of action. When It is In power
It never does anything. It has no prin
ciples, except to got in office and
sliy there. It has now dAVflloped an
affirmative policy In any direction. J.
has netw initiated a progrostlyo ruoasr
ure. It never will.
It is not so surprising, therefore, af
ter all, to thoso who know, something
of tho past history ana present compos
ition of tho democratic party, that In
tho body where-' it has complete power
it is now Bhowlsg signs of paresis. We
fLtm told that tho democratic triumvi
rate (hat .controls the party In tho sen
ate and assumes to control it In tho
aatiou, racsturs. Gorman, Hill and
Brlee, have agree wljLU ft? tiumyl
rate la the. house, .wblek, WW Wft
aew rules,' If they are ever Mttef
wiirtoattolaU thj leil1stteaotas
. ..., . ., .... i ' i
body tho democratic members of the
committee on rules that it is not desir
nblo for tho hnuno to do nnythlng at
this ncs&lon on the silver and tariff
question. Action of any hind might
fcpllt tho party. The New Knglnnd
nnd most of tho New York democrats
uro ngalnst fraudulent frro silver; thn
democrat of the (south and west are in
favor of It The democrats of Pennsyl
vania, nnd sotno In other statci, nro
ngalnst free trndc; tho rest of tho dem
ocrats aro In favor of It. Therefore,
tho piusngo of a free-coinage bill by
democratic votci in tho house would
bo dangerous; It might nllenato east
ern voters. Tho panMigo of a "Mills
bill" would antngonl7e business inter
ests nnd precipitate a tariff campaign,
and that would be dangerous, too.
Ko this parly, ns represented in con
gross, and having In the popular branch
a clear raiiorltv of ilftv votes, actually
f dares not pass a bill that would com
mit it to any dcflnlto policy. This is
only a new and rather striding illustra
tion of tho very old fact that the demo
cratic party is simply the "against
party" tho party of opposition, the
party of negation, absolutely ineapa
bio of positive action, of constructive
legislation or of adherence to any prin
ciple. In 1804 it ran for president a union
general on n secession platform; in 1868
it ran a hard-money man on a platform
of repudiation; in 1873, on a platform
that contradicted every principle it had
ever professed, It rau Horace Greely,
its life-long and most bitter foe. In
1888 it V(ba held by the throat by Dro
ver Cleveland on a positive platform,
and was defeated. The defeat naa
knocked out of It whatever conrage it
temporarily possessed, and now ItAs
