It has been put forward as aa arguntaat in favor of Hlaia' -lo tioa that if ia power ha would give us some aow aad startling revelations in tho way of foreign policy. What ho wottM do. or what he could do, ia this particular lino we are not told, but the general ini!refin i otnvpyel that in some eu-; tirvlv original manner ho would start I , the world, shake the American bun nor, we suppose, ovr the effete monarchies of Europe and caue our hint of f reedout to servant defianct in the ears of our enemies, AU of this kind ot talk mav afeh e classenl with other eamnaijru mm-i'iiM', but if it be really ended to inr!nene votes, it indicates a curious i-noraa-e of the spirit and ideas of the majority of our people. There alwavi is and a'lwavs will be. a certain restless and reckless element thiratr for excite ment and corutuoUon in foreign as in . i ar : u... :. 1 . where near controlling the country, and it will be a very bad day for u when it does. It coincides with the an archie. ctrumunlt:c element that even ia a free, txmular eovernutent find some excuse for existence and that love aa expkjsion because it thrives best among; ruins. It is a new idea in poll tie if the w'sbes and views of this clam are to be employed at an argument to intfuen aa election, which is really what this talk about Blaine's foreign policy means. Hot perhaps some of Blaine's ad mlrers may say that what they are after is an original and aggressive for eitfn policy, and not empty indulgence ot National raHy. The reply to this is. that neither origina'ity nor ag gTessiveness U needed in our foreign piliey at .-present. We are retting alonir rery nii-oly by minding our own business, and any other course, th n this would ,ur ly result in Xat'onal injury. The idea that we need aggressiveness in this direvt'on is a mistake. We ar differently xitunted frtra anv oth'-r great Xattim in th world. We have no colonial p'tM.ons we h:ve ample pve to expand in: w: have no Un arus of conduct, and our territory i com. pact and eotitljruou. Our foreign policy has been aud should alwayx he di'votel to tak'njr care of our own Nation t! an in interfe'ins with the business of other people, and we have qu.te. enough to do tn tots direction without j!aviuj quixotic exp:riu)euts for the graliticxtton of .National vanity. We are not j quite a "Xation of shopkeepers, " hut j we have a Treat deal of stall of one j kind or another to sell, and our pn perity largely depemls Uvn domestic' tranquillity "and commercial develop-1 ment and energy. J X to the restoration ff our National prestipre, if we have lout it. which is by j no means quite certain, no arewivc ideis tonrhtr'g foreign policy on the part of our President can do ux much " gootL What we really have sullerol from are evils reuUiag from the rule of the Republican party in the affairs of the country during along period. A poor navy, consul tag of a few wooden ships, 'is" an injury to our National name. A loss of commercial reprsetttatires oa the high seas, with a broken up foreign commerce, is also aa in Jury, and so with other matter. No change in our foreign policy hi respect to Kngiand. Germany or other Nations can obliterate these National failure. What we want is a change a sweeping change n the Government, and a transfer of power from unworthy and incompetent hands to hands that are cl an and vlgorons in the discharge of duty. We are well aware that the element of disorder, of wild schemes aad renal methods in both parties are favorable tn the election of Blaine. We are atisnod that It should be so. There is some thing in Mr. Blaine to at'ract these elements to his support, and we are quite willing to go before the tribunal of the pe ple with the issues made up in this war. It can never be true that the thoughtful and miiufttriott citizen of the t'nited States will support a man for the Presides -y because he is rash and dan gerous in character, or that they will ever he willing to have our foreign policy dictated by any other consideration; save dignity and honor and a de cent respect tor rno optnioa oi kind. SL Umi HtpukwtH, The llreat thasttiww. Owe thing is evident we are to have a National canvass which will be foogiit out on real rather than imaginary issues. The bloody shirt will not appear. The Repubiicaas see the necessity of winning several Southern States, aad will accordingly give the South the fair play and the fair judgment it has aeked for in rain ever since the war. The mam one of these issues lies in the, question whether there shall be a Changs in the administration of the Government. The two parties are aot rry wide apart if one may judge from timer platlornt. The Democrats want tarif reform aad the Republicans don't. The former are sincere in their declaration against convict and foreign con tract hxbor, whether the latter are or not. On other point there is a similarity of judgment which almost indi eates an era of good feeling. Hut the great question, remains: Shall there be a change? The Republicans hare been hi power tweatytour years. They an handicapped by the Star Route villainy, the corruption la the Nary Department, and the popular Idea that frequent changes are necessary to good anil honest 'government. On the other band there are a hundred thousand Federal ortice-bolders most of whom will use their influence for Mr. Blaine In or uer to retain their knead and butter. Ought there to be and can there be a chaatge? That M the question of que, tioas, and In omparison with it all oth en at eemfmfwtlrelv twbiBeaut. -V. eja jjal--jiLjl i. wrimsNc
Th nombatioa of Goveraor Heelaud as the lhnucratie cnmiiidate f tho I'resideary was hot uaexiwcted by those who walew the course of naliiical e veals. It had been evident for a month that he was ooasidsreat the most available man to lead the party ia tW pretest .mmpnlgtt, and that he would go into the eonroatiou with the trt chances of coming out of it iu nomine-. The tentiuK'at that set toward him w except ionallv strong. It was manif .t that, with Tlldeu retire-i. CU-vc land was ngarded as the man for the times. It is scarcely awwessary'to say that the roMrier-JownMi', while mxjgnkio tiie worth and streagtb of New York's reform (overnor. took a di.lerent view of the situation. We thought the par v skoul't come West for its candidate, as-l thinking so. we urged the claim of on; who to our mind combined that in hipersonality, his public record and hit gf-ographical location which made his leadership peculiarly desirable at this juncture of the party's history. But the tide to Cleveland was too strong. White we believe the party Was willing to, and even iieirou of. tookmg to the West, the influence which turned
it again to New York were practically irresistible, and the fearicr- fou ma', recognixiug this, will support the ticket of Cleveland and Hendricks a earuestlr. as heartily, as bopo'ully as it d d thai nf Tildcn and Heasirieks sight years ago. Support lent than this would be oat of the question, even were the nominations less admirable than they are. The convention was of .such an exceptionally representative character, its action was guided by such a temperate au J deliberate spirit, and it conclusions were reached with such unanimity, eocfldeuce and enthusiasm, that not to accept these conclusions with equal eontiilenre and enthusiasm would be next to impossible. Bnt the ticket iu helf it a strikingly strong one. It is probably as near inv n ible and irresistible as eouM have liecn natned. Oruver ClevetanJ was unquetionablv the most available man in the East whom the party cou'd have nominated. In him ts representexl that spirit of aimiaistratire reform whi h drew the party to Tildcn m l7f:. and whi-'h tiday the best elements of the Ameri an jeople, irrespetHire of party, seek to apply to the ad ministration of the National Government. Governor C.e. eland is a Democrat whose political career, while one of aggir$sicn and war oa the perrerteri ot pure government, is of imposing simplicity aad s'rength. He has avoided ostentation ami demagogy He has sought his duty and he lias dared to do it at whatever cost to himself. He is x man unirerally acknowledged to be honest in his eonrkHions and fearless fax carrying them out. Elected, because of these character, istics. to reform the government of Buffalo, be proved himself so worthy of the trust tbnt he was called by a i tatteoas demand to perform t. work in the Mate Government, weft and so cuuingeoetsly did he answer this demmd that the Oenwcracy of th Nation, with an equal jpon taoeity, have chosen him to take up the work which Tildcn was elected to do. He will do that work. Hi i course has won him the confidence of the country. Ho will carry New York and the election. A reprrotative of the progressive Young l)eutocracy. he has equally the trust of the conservative classes, while the veterans of the partv are among his warmest supporters- Care' Jul of the right and solicitous for the welfare ot the masse he fcas ever refused to prostitu'e his office to tf'a personal popularity among aary class at the expense of conviction. The enemies he has mane among professional politicians will but add tn his strength among the people. There is nothing m his oAeial tareer upon which a ftght against h im can be mad?, lue character of the opposition against hhm has been trivial and ridiculous. That is the full blase of inspection to which he has lately been subjected nothing more serious could be found to urge against him, is a eonclusire proof of bit s- leodid record. It is this which ban m: e the Kepublicaas dread him as theyJrVno other lemoerat. ComparatitflMt new man. he Is not ah unknown untried one. He b m thorouau sympathy with the dominant sentinsent of the party on the vital issues of administrative and tariff reforat, aad he will lift the campaign from the degrading level of Benrmiulfm and eetkmaliirm aad g'rve it a restpUess mom en turn before which the flimsy opposition which baa been asade to him will soon crumble away. If he lives, he will be inaugurated President next March. The nomination of (kfrernor Hendricks for th Vice-l'rosidency van inspiration.
