rr ."4 Jtaw Ulm Review F.W. .JOHNSON,, Editor and Prop Wednesday, June 15, 1892. The Nominees. The names of Harrison and ltied offered to the voters of the nation by the dele gates who assembled in Minneapolis last week are such as will inspire confidence in,the coming campaign. The adminis tration of President Harrison during the past three years, is not one that requires defense. It has all along been faithful, frank and in accord with Republican principles. Furthermore it has had to contend with some very delicate and complicated questions of foreign policy and in every instance, whether the credit belongs to the chief or to his lieutenants, it has maintained a bold front and achieved glory for America. It will therefore go into the coming contest with public satisfaction at its back and en couraged with flattering prospects of en dorsement. The candidate for vice-president is a newspaper man. As such he has done good service through the New York Tri bune and has merited hfe reward. Able, truly Republican and pronounced in his views tb people will learn to like him as they Know him more. Throw no Bricks. The motto which is said to have been 'telegraphed from Washington to dele gates at Minneapolis, "Stand firm, but throw no bricks," is full of wisdom. Neither President Harrison nor ex-Secre tary Blaine would ever thank any Mend, however warm-hearted and earnest, for uttering bitter words which should make his nomination unwise or dangerous. With cordial effort by the whole party for its principles and its splendid cause, either of several worthy candidates could le elected this year. But he who starts bickering and harshness of speech in such a case may easily make the election ofhis own especial favorite doubtful. The best friend of either candidate is he who deals fairly with the honorable reputation, the admirable services, and the proved merits and strength of others whose claim is al so dear to the Republican party and to good citizens of both parties. The extravagance so often heard around conventions might have been more wise ly restrained in this case, because a great proportion of Republicans throughout the country have become accustomed to regard the President and the Secretary of State as associated and sharing in the work of a highly successful administra tion. It could not helj) either should his friends claim on his behalf full credit for all that has been well done, for the peo ple would resent and repel such a claim. Among the shrewdest and most experi enced leaders of the party these are some who are perfectly convinced that one candidate has much the greater strength witli the people and could be the more surely elected. But other leaders, also, eminent for ability and great experience, believe just the same of another candi date. Where there is such a division of opinioiyunong those who are most com petent to judge, dogmatic certainty of assertion is scarcely in place, for without excess of modesty any man may admit that his impressions might be in error about part of sixty millions of people. The case,is one that calls for good and careful judgement, for generous recogni tion of the merits of all Republican can didates, and particularly for avoidance of those sayings that tend to make unit ed efforts difficult after the nomination. If there should be candidates whose sup porters at any stage could not or would, not meet the emergency in this spirit, a level-headed convention might find itself compelled to set them aside, in order to insure a nomination that would command the full and hearty support of Republic an voters and thus do full justice to Re publican principles. Where a conven tion is impressed with a sense of its re sponsibility and duty in that regard, in dividuals or ungenerous 'spirit and fiery tongue are in danger of destroying the candidates they may favor. Do not Sulk. With Mr. Blaine's own words for a text the Review would urge that this is no tniie for his friends,to sulk. His admir ers to be. sure, feel Sorely that he has been turned down in a manner that shows little respect for his brilliant services and unselfish loyalty to Republican progress, but the needs of the campaign demand that all personal feeling be buried and that differences of choice and favoritism blend in a united effort to rob the enemy of all offensive weapons. There are issues at stake of more importance than indiv idual preferences, says the great secfe. tary of state and his words show wisdom at the same time, that they prove him the ,M be even now what he has always been in |V« the past—a man of ambition and yet one &'L. ™k° not subject bis party's success ii^j'.t0 s^lfi»n 0 purposes. ,The opposition will make every effort possible to draw upon 'Si. S iiSISM prevailing dissatisfaction. They will en deavor to encourage the followers of the Maine man in sulking from their duty. But the latter should remember that it was always the commendable and patri otic policy of their gallant leader to turn his back to personal disappointment and labor hard that the nominee might win. That is a follow. The Review has always been a Blaiue paper and always will be. Itsfelt*that it would have been wise to nominate him at Minneapolis and that he would sweep the country with his wonderful popular ity, but circumstances prevented the cul mination of its .wishes, and it will now accept the situation gladly and do what it can in this section,to aid the cause of the convention's choice, realizing that the principles of the party, should he be elected, will be safely guarded in his hands. Blaine was our preference over all others. Harrison, however, is careful, discreet and able,' and our admiration for another will not suffer us tb impair the chances of the party because we could not get what we most desired. How It Was Done. The Review has not one word of fault to find with the ticket nominated at Minneapolis. It is creditable in every respect and as the bitterness of disap pointment fades away in a common wish to secure Republican success this fall it will grow in popular favor. There is one thing, however, that will not tend to les sen that disappointment of Mr. Blaine's friends and that should not pass without criticism. We refer to the manner in which the defeat of the secretary of state was brought about, We would hot have it, understood that Harrison was to blame for this. Most likely he did not understand what means were being employed to secure his nomi nation or he would not have counte nanced the methods. The pang and sting of insult, notwithstanding, remain. Chauncey Depew, standing on the plat form of that convention hall with all the dignity of a magnate and the conceit of the puffed-up orator that he is, and ex ulting that the thousands, who cheered over the mention of the greatest states man of his age, could not vote, will lin ger in the minds of those present and it will only be through the Christian spirit of turning the other cheek also that his contemptuous slur will lose its effect. Reason as he may and laugh at such de monstrations if he will, Mr. Depew is not orator enough to talk down the fact that Blaine is the favorite with the peo ple. Leave it to them.and he would be the choice with overwhelming certainty*. The thousands in the hall wanted him. The delegates did not and everybody knows the reason why. The former are willing to have their wishes defeated, perhaps for policy's sake, perhaps for an unfortunate grouping of circumstances, but to be insulted for their love and choice is hard to stand. Defeat they can brook if it is' thought best, but humiliation ne ver brought with it healing powers. Blaine's Retirement. When Mr. Blaine stepped from the cabinet so unexpectedly a week ago, his sudden act created general surprise and the circumstances and the impulsive na ture of the man aroused the slumbering suspicion with many of trickery and pol itical chicanery dark and devious. The people possessed of that view were no doubt honest in their acceptance of it, and many of them were former admirers of Mr. Blaine, but where there was so much of secretness attached to the mat ter and so much of purtness in the presi dent's reply, it is strange that they should refuse to give the retiring secretary an equal benefit of doubt, as long as there wss any. They should remember too, that in spite of all the charges that have been preferred against this interesting man, he has lived them all down and two weeks ago there was not a man with in the party or even amongst the Demo crats who would not look to Mm with honor. Besides Blaine is shrewd. If he had wanted the nomination from the Minneapolis convention, he would not have resigned from the cabinet in ordpr to secure it. He could have obtained it just as easily witliout giving a sign and his knowledge of politics would have led him to -foresee the effects of such a course. The charge is not plausible and there are certainly matters yet to be re vealed that will put a different light on the whole affair. .At present the only con elusion that can be drawn is that the American people are too fickle, They guess too much, and convict too fast. But whatever was the cause or what ever is to be offered to Mr. Blaine in the future, his past glory and renown can not be taken from him..As senator and representative he was always ardent and bold in defense of what bebelieved to be right, comparing easily with Clay for fer vor»and with Webster for discretion and strength of ideas. As secretory .of-state, the nation is proud of him and his diplo matic finesse has placed his name along with two others, youngest and. brightest of the world's greatest stat sman. GI" F. H.
