St. John Undertakes to Size Up the Situation. New York, Jane 15.—What do you think of the ticket* said ex*Gov. St. John, yesterday, repeating the qaes tion of a reporter who ran across him. Well Cleveland is a hard man to beat, and Thurman will probably add strength to the ticket. Still, the Democratic party is again dodg ing the most vital questions of the day. You mean prohibition, I suppose? ventured the reporter. I do; and if you live long enough, you will see it the leading issue of a canvass. But you admit that Cleveland* will be re elected? Ido nothing of the sort. Th# day of election is a good way off. There’s no telling what may bappeft in the next five months. The pro hibition party has, in selecting Gen. Clinton B, Fisk, placed before the people a man who is in the fullest sense a patriot, a soldier and a statesman. He is also a Christian, If these qualities count for anything, he should be elected. Who do you think the Republicans will select, now the Democrats havo shown their hands* That is a hard question. I am not given to guessing. How about Gresham? Well, there seems just now a greater effort being put forth in his behalf than for any of the twenty five possible candidates. The fact is the Republican party is practically without a leader, now that Mr. Blaine has retired. “What chance is there for Depew, His chances to get the nomination are better than for him to be elected in November, His connection with the great railway monopolies would undoubtedly weaken him in the West. It might not be fatal, bnt there is no qaestion about his being a weak candidate. So you are satisfied with the eitu ation? Quite so. We may not win this year, bnt our party will show such strength at the polls that success is certain in 1892. Is not that looking a good way ahead, Governor? “No, Bir, when you are talking of National questions. What are four years in the history of a nation? While I admit that Mr, Cleveland if a strong man with the people, a good many things may happen between now and election day which would entirely change wnat to some might now seem to be the inevitable result. If the election of 1885 had been held in October instead of November Mr. Blaine would have been elected* But his party carried the campaign of personal abuse to such extreme* as to disgust many people, and the reaction set in to *uch an extent as to lose to Mr. Blaine the State of New York and possibly one or two more, which otherwise he might' have car ried. _*_ Imparities of the blood often cause great annoyance at this season; Hood’s Sarsapa¬ all rilla purifies the blood, and on res inch affections. 1 Bits From Brushy.
