If there ever was any doubt as to Mr. Blaine's candidacy for the Presi dency in 1892 there is little room for doubt now for he is: practically in the ring as much so as if public an nouncement to that effect had been made by his authority. Mr. Blaine is an ambitious man, he has nursed the dream of the Presidency for years, his defeat when beaten by Cleveland was a grevious disappoint ment to him, and he has never rested easy under it. The fact that that campaign was waged largely upon his personal record, his honesty as a legislator forming one of the issues, made his defeat all the more sting ing because it carried with it a per sonal rebuke, and popular endorse ment of the arraignment against him. A defeated candidate loses pres tige to a greater or less extent, and this fact, coupled with the seri ous doubts of the Republican party being able to elect its candidate in 1888, accounts for his declining to enter the race then. He was per haps as much surprised as any one when Benjamin Harrison was elect ed, by carrying the very same State which had beaten him. He is no less ambitious to-day than he was six years ago or ten years ago, and the desire to wipe out the stigma of defeat and secure a personal vindication by an election, is as strong as it ever was. It would not be like Blaine if he did not avail himself of the first opportunity that presented anything like a hope of success to achieve it. Since 1884 there has been a marked change of popular sentiment in this country on several questions, but on none more so than on the tariff ques tion, the high protective policy hav ing lost thousands of adherents since then, even in those States in which a man's orthodoxy and his patriotism almost were gauged by the readiness with which he accepted that doctrine and the enthusiasm with which he supported it. No one was quicker to discover this change or more alert to put himself in accord with it, so far as he could consistently do considering his relations to Mr. Harrison's ad administration, than he. In his criticism of . the McKinley bill, shrewdly shaped to attract the attention of the farmers without seeming to be so intended, he went as far as he could go on a measure to which Mr. Harrison and the party were committed, without openly an tagonizing the administration and the party leaders, which it was not his purpose or policy to do, and in his disapproval of the Lodge force bill, another measure endorsed by Mr. Harrison and the leaders of the party, he put himself in accord with that conservative element of the country which holds law and right above party supremacy and who, though they make but little noise, are potent factors in all presi dential elections. If he had not a motive in addition to the desire to extend our commer cial relations with the American countries south of us, he never would have adopted the reciprocity idea, nor taken that radical departure from the high protective Chinese wall pol icy as advocated by his party and himself, as one of its leading lights, for nearly a generation, and he would never have written that letter to Sen ator Frye, which, coming from the source it did, is one of the strongest documents against the doctrine of protection, as understood and carried out by the Republican party, that has ever emanated from a recognized Republican leader. There is no shrewder politician in his party than he, no abler man, no one with so much personal magnet ism nor a greater following, and he is not the man to take chances bjindly without considering the sit uation and weighing the conse quences. There is, from the present out look, a better chance for his nomina tion than for that of any other man of his party whose name is mentioned in that connection, and there are par ticular reasons why he should not de cline if he did not absolutely seek the nomination. It is a conceded fact by all who are not influenced to denial of it by partisan bias that the Republican party is, from the negative adminis tration of Mr. Harrison and the pos itive blundering and criminality of the present Congress, in a very bad plight and sadly in need of a pilot to steer it through the troubled waters and the rocks around and ahead of it. There are pilots enough ready, willing and anxious to undertake the job, but none of them could present the endorsements nor command the sup port that Mr. Blaine could if the test were made to-day. This is the ground upon which his nomination will be urged. He will accept it be cause it will place him in the atti tude of a party deliverer or savior, the leader of a forlorn hope, who came to the rescue when all was chaos and snatched victory from the jaws of defeat, which, in the event of victory, would be glory added to the personal triumph of a vindica tion after the lapse of eight years, and a reversal of the verdict of 1884. But should he be defeated it would involve no personal reproach nor humiliation to him, for he could with much truth say that it was Har rison's blunders and the criminal rec ord of the Republican Congress which brought disaster and made victory under any leadership impos sible. He risks no personal reputation nor prestige by accepting the nomi nation, but, if successful, would achieve fame as the leader who took the party which others had al most wrecked and saved it from ruin. This might well be considered, from Mr. Blaine's standpoint, an honorable, brilliant and happy round ing up of a conspicuous and event ful public life, a blending of light and shadow, strength and weakness, virtue and venality, and might rea sonably fill the measure of his am bition, long pursued and at last achieved. MINOR, MENTION. Mr. Voorhees stated in his speech in the Senate on the tariff, Monday, that the increase of the tariff on woolen goods alone amounted to fif teen millions of dollars a year. This was not done for revenue, but sim ply to give more protection to indus tries already enormously protected. Another notable fact in this connec tion is the disproportion in the rate of increase on the finer and coarser grade of goods, the rates on the cheaper fabrics being increased from seventy-five to one hundred and sixty per cent., double the rate of in crease on the finer goods bought and worn by people in easy circum stances. The increase of rates on iron and steel is from 38.24 per cent, to 51.75 per cent., which every one who buys a pound of either will have to pay: This is not for revenue, but to give more protection to men who have already amassed princely for tunes out of the protection which they have had for years. Th will fall largely upon the farmer i it forms an additional tax on every machine, vehicle or implement used lr the cultivation of his farm, and this too, while the farmers throughout the country are demanding relief with a unanimity and a positiveness that they never before demanded it This is what they expect from a bill which, as Mr. Blaine says, does not open a market for another bushel of wheat or another barrel of pork while an attempt is made to humbug them with a farcical protection on cer tain farm products the importation of which is insignificant, of some so much so that they are not considered worth classifying in the Custom House reports Is the tariff bill debate in the Sen ate to be a mere matter of formality as the debate on the admission of those rotten-borough States, the Montana Senatorships, and Depen dent Pension bill was ? It looks that way when it is stated that not more than a dozen Republican Senators remained in their seats last Monday to listen to the speech of Mr. Voor hees against it. Mr. Voorhees is recognized to be one of the ablest men and one of the leaders on the Democratic side, and certainly what he had to say was worthy of the respectful attention not only of the Democrats but of the other side of the chamber. It is true his speech might be riad in the Record when it is printed, but if this be a sufficient reason for Senators not listening to it then the delivery of speeches might be dispensed with altogether as a mere time-consum ing formality, and the speeches printed without going through that formal process. The- fact of this general vacating of seats on the Republican side indicates that the majority have decided to run the bill through in its present shape, admitting, perhaps, some trivial amendments by Republican Sena tors, and hence the only object to be accomplished by the Democratic Senators in opposing it will be to expose its enormities, show up what a tight grip the protected monopo lists have on the Republican side of the Senate as well as the House, and how little the over-burdened people have to expect in the way of reform- or relief from either. In this respect the debate, formal as it is, will prove serviceable in the campaign of education now in progress through out the country. Mr. John I. Davenport, of New York, who has achieved some repu tation and notoriety as a manipu lator of Federal election laws, seems to have become a necessary adjunct counsellor-in-chief, of the Republi can statesman in Washington when they set themselves to hatch out any election devilment. When Lodge had worked up his bill and it was submitted to the committee on elec tions Mr. Davenport was summoned to give his views and suggestions before the bill was put in final shape for presentation in the House, so the Senate committee on elections now have him closeted with them to help them work up a bili which they think will meet the emergency which confronts the g. o. p. Johnny is a hustler and from his experience he is qualified to give them all the points which they haven't caught on to. As counsellor-in-chief to the conspirators in general he has be come quite distinguished, and is con tributing his share to make them quite infamous. STATE TOPICS. The Scotland Neck Democrat mentions seeing some clover cut from a field in Halifax county which measured five feet in height. This shows what Halifax can do on clover. But other counties can do as well as that. We have seen fields in Mecklenburg county of fifteen or twenty acres, where the clover stood from five to six feet high, and so thick upon the ground that it was impossible to cut it with a mower. It had to be cut by hand. From two to three cuttings were made in one season. Wake, Guil ford, Randolph, Forsyth, and other counties can show as fine clover fields as can be seen anywhere, and in addition to this, the area of culti vation is annually increasing as the ease and success of its culture have become so fully demonstrated. There need be no fears about the agricultural future of a State which can grow five-foot clover when that clover is utilized as it should be as feed for stock and a fertilizer of the soil. ' CURRENT COMMENT' - : The majority in the House will have to be made larger to main tain even a counted quorum. Ac cordingly two more Democrats are to be bounced.-. Times, Ind, Compared with the arrogant' lawlessness of Dictator Reed and the complacent impudence of Boss Quay how feeble seems the speculative chicane that lost Mr. Blaine the Pres idency; Reedism and Quayism have almost made Blaineism respectable. Phil. Record, Dem Remonstrances against the fraud and force bill come in increas ing numbers from all parts of the country. Many signers, especially in the West and Northwest, accom pany their protests with the state ment that they are Republicans but feel it their duty to denounce so rev olutionary a measure. N. Y. Star, Dem. It is said now that the ad vanced steps taken by Mr. James G. Blaine on the tariff question and the Lodge election bill, directly in con flict with the leaders of his party and the views of Harrison, will necessa rily cause his retirement from the Cabinet at an early day, and must probably make him a candidate for the Presidential nomination in 1892. We shall not be surprised if that is true. Lynchburg Advance, Dem. WOMEN WHO SPECULATE. They Like to Take a Flyer in Stocks the Same as Men. "Do vou know that there are be tween 300 and 400 women who spec ulate in Wall street?" said a Virginia woman, now engaged in the stock brokerage business in New York, wnue in conversation with a re porter the other day. "Most lady speculators are bulls," she continued. "They buy, do not sell often. I do not know why this is so. I know that when I was spec ulating I was a buyer. I have had twelve customers thus far. I expect to have orders by mail from all over the country. I have already bought for Virginia ladies and for one in Boston. "It is easy to make money in stocks if one only keeps one's eyes open. Of course if you buy at ran dom you are in great danger of los ing. I suppose there are ladies who fancy that all they have to do to get rich is to throw some money into Wall street. This is a very mistake. "Teat "Most of the ladies who speculate are women of means who want to in crease their wealth, but there are a good many who only have a few dol lars, say 20 or more, and invest it here and make." MOTH FLIES SEIZED THE TOWN. They Made the Walks Slippery and Drove Folk Indoors. A plague of moth flies or, as they are also styled, "electric-light bugs" invaded Pottsville. Pa., Wednesday night and literally covered every thing. They so filled the electric light globes as to dim the light. Pedestrians had to wave them aside with violent gestures. They piled themselves half an inch thick on doorsteps and windows. They cov ered telegraph poles and awn ing posts till the latter looked as if they had been - painted with a heavy coat of ochre. So dense were they upon the pavements that peo ple slipped down upon them. Porches of hotels and residences were cleared of their legitimate occupants- The pests died by millions before morn ing and left a nauseating odor in the air. The bug causing all this trouble is abou t one-half an inch long and re sembles the ordinary miller, excent that it does not have the white, dusty cover of that fly. Its color is a dark yellow with brown snots. While not so malicious in its attacks as the mosquito its swift dashes are nevertheless extremely annoying. AFRICA'S DWARF BELLES. Said to be Graceful and Prepossessinz, Though They Wear No Clothes. Explorer Stanley's new book con tains the following description of a belle among the African dwarfs: At this settlement, Ugarrowwa's station, I saw the first specimen of the tribe of dwarfs who were said to be thick ly scattered north of the Ituri, from the Ngaiyu eastward. She measured 33 inches in height, and was a per- tectly tormed young women of about seventeen years of a glisten ing and smooth sleekness of body. Her figure was that of a min iature colored lady, not wanting in a certain grace, and her face was very prepossessing. Her complex ion was that of a quadroon, or of the color of yellow ivory. Her eyes were magnificent, but absurdly large for such a small creature almost as large as that of a young gazelle; full, protruding, and extremelv lustrous. Absolutely nude, the little demoi selle was quite possessed, as though she were accustomed to be admired, and really enjoyed inspection. POLITICAL POINTS. With Blaine in the Republican ring for 1892, how dwarfed in appear ance become all other contestants for the championship. Petersburg Index- Appeal, J nd. The surplus is in sheol, and its disappearance under Republican man agement in an amazingly short period of time leaves the real issue plain to the sight of the people. JV. Y. Sun, Dem. The Steamship and Postal Subsidy vultures are flocking to Wash ington. That sort of political carrion sends forth an odor peculiarly grateful to the lobbyists' nostrils. Phil. Record. Dem. With gag rule in Congress and bayonet rule at the polls the Republican leaders strive to mane ineir ruic Hvnastv throno-h "r.ontinuous victory They will not look so lordly, but they will know a exeat deal more, when the people get through with them.

He has re paired over fifty steeples in England, and is in constant aemana. A. P. Peterson, attorney genera of the Hawaiian Islands, was born in Plymouth, Mass. He received his early education in Hawaii, but finished his studies in New England. Ex-Secretary McCulloch's illness is now reported to be less serious than was represented last week. He has suf fered from Hay feve for years, and this disorder has lately-aeveloped an asthma' tic phase. Besides, his digestive appar atus has been slightly disordered. George Francis'Train is com fortably domiciled in Fern Hill, a suburb ot lacoma, and calls his cottage " 1 rain Villa-on-the-Hill." He is expecting s visit from his daughter soon and talks some about making another trip around the world this time in hity days. The little Princess Elizabeth of Austria, the daughter of the late Crown Prince, can't take outings with her mother, Princess Stephanie, because, by the will of her father, she must al ways remain in the immediate neigh borhood and under the eye of her grand father, the Emperor.
