of rebellion into five military districts,
and made the civil authorities amenable
to military rule. Although a majority of
the Republican party were in favor of
accepting the bill proposed by Mr. Stev-
ensaaxt stood, it must always be set
edown to the credit at Mr. Blaine that he
had the hardihood to oppose openly the
Great Commoner’s reconstruction meas-
ure which did not provide that each or;
any of . the rebel_ States should
regain its autonomy by comply-
ing with specified conditions made by
Congress. He embodied his objections
in the form of an addition to the Four-
teenth Amendment as it had previously
stood, and this addition came to be
known as ‘the Blaine amendment. Mr.
Blaine’s motion was defeated in the
House by the applica ion of the previous
question, but it was carried in the Sen-
ate, and finally, having been accepted by
the House, became law. About this time
Mr. Blaine voted against the motion to
strike Florida from the Reconstruction
bill. He also voted to continue the bu-
reau for releasing the freedmen refugees.
I The Greenback Craze.

. As a member of the Military Committee
during war times Mr. Blaine had had
abundant opportunities of forming a fa-
vorable impression of Mr. Stanton, the
great War Secretary. When President
Johnson attempted to turn Stanton out
of omce by force Mr. Blaine joined Sen-
ator Edmunds’ vote of thanks and confi-
dence to Mr. Stanton. -

In 1867 a violent a itatlon arose in fa-
vor of paying the p lic debt in green-

backs. It was during the summer, while
Mr. Blaine was absent on a visit to

ur'ope, that this craze gained its height.”

As soon as the House met .in December
Mr. Blaine was the first speaker in Con-
gress to give the proposal vigorous and
unstinted opposition. Speaking of Mr.
Pendleton’s greenback proposals he said:

“The remedyfor our financial troubles
will not be found in a superabundance of
depreciated paper currency. It lies in the
opposite direction, and the sooner the
nation finds itself on a specie basis the
sooner will the public treasury be freed
from embarrassment and private business
be relieved from discouragement. Instead,
therefore, of entering upon a reckless
and boundless issue of legal tenders, with
their constant depreciation of value, let
us Set resolutelyy to work and make those
already in circulation equal to so many
gold dollars.”

The truth of these words is now so ap—
parent that we accept them as a matter of
course, but Mr. Bleine’s deliverance of
them at the time showed him to be a
brave and fearless statesman, who had
the courage of his convictions, and who
was prepared to oppose any scheme hav-
ing temporary popularity which would
not, in his opinion, ultimately redound
to the credit of the country.

The part which Mr. Blaine took in
wringing from England the abandon—
ment of- the rights which she claimed
over naturalized American citizens born
in British territory, insured to him at
the time the gratitude of all Irishman
with nationalist aspirations. Three men,
named Costello, Warren and Burke, had
been arrested in England on the charge
of complicity in Fenian plots. Costello
was tried in Ireland for a speech made in
New York in 1865, while he was a natur-
alized American citizen.

The British Government, under the
Treason Felony Act of 1848, asserted its
right to punish him for treasonable lan-
guage uttered on a foreign soil. Costello
was convicted and sentenced to sixteen
years’ penal servitude, and his plea of
being an American citizen was overruled.
Mr. Blaine made himself active on be-
half of Costello, and it was mainly by
his efforts that the Federal Executive was
induced to bring sufficient pressure to
bear upon the English Government to
secure the release of Costello and others
who had been imprisoned on the same
charge. ‘

Out of these negotiations arose the
treaty of 1870 between the United States
and Great Britain, in which the doctrine
of perpetual allegiance, or “once a citi-
zen, always a citizen,” was abandoned by
Great Britain, and perpetual immunity

_ guaranteed to all American citizens who

had previously been British subjects.
Speaker of the House.

In 1869 Mr. Blaine was chosen Speaker
of the House of. Representatives. He was
first reelected and served continuously
until the Democratic party regained con-
trol of the lower branch of Congress. It
is acknowledged on all sides that Mr.
Blaine made a brilliant and successful
Speaker. His knowledge of Parliamen-
tary law was immense,his quickness of de-
cision was something extraordinary, and
'he was prompt, fair and courteous to all
parties.

At the general election in 1874, the
Democrats obtained a majority in the
House of Represeritatives. Mr. Blaine,
being no longer Speaker, naturally be-
came leader of the minority. 0n Decem-
ber 15, 1875, Mr. Randall introduced the
Amnesty bill, by which all political disa-
bilities imposed on account of the rebel-
lion were to be removed by statute.

On January 6, 1876, Mr. Blaine ‘gave‘

notice to amend the bill by excepting
Jefferson Davis by name from its provis-,
ions.

A long debate followed, .in which

the case of the South was presented by

Benjamin H. Hill, of Georgia. Mr. Blaine
had_ accused Jefferson Davis of being
privy to the atrocities of Andersonville.
Mr. Hill denied. these charges as un-
founded.

Mr. Blaine retorted by quoting a reso-
lution introduced in the Confederate
Senate by Hill himself, providing that
every soldier or officer of the United
States captured on Confederate soil
should be deemed to have come to incite
insurrection and should suffer the- penal-
ty of death. This scene madea deep im-
pression on the country and brought Mr.
Blaine‘stlll more prominently forward as
a candidate for the nomination at the ap-
proaching Republican convention.

' The Convé'ntion of 1876.

For more than -two years before the
Republican National Convention at Cin-
cinnati, in June, 1876, the name of James,
G. Blaine had been most frequently
spoken of as the strongest candidate for
the Presidency. The event so turned out
when the convention opened on June 14.
All other candidates were individually
weak in comparison to Mr. Blaine.

From the first a series of unlucky ifci-
dents conspired to destroy the chances of
the man from Maine. The whole country
was startled on June 11 when Mr. Blaine
was stricken with sun'stroke while on his
way-to’attend Dr. Rankln’s chui'ch.

The convention was on the. point of
assembling—but three days off—and from

4111 parts of the country came the ques-

tion. of the health of the strongest candi-
date before the convention. Then,
through the‘Hon.‘Edward ucPhers'on of
Pennsylvania, a'strong Blaine man was

, opp-ca permanent Chairman, the friends
the

0 Maine man w'sra too confident of

1

their strength and conceded too mucn

to their opponents. In this cause they

Were’ehcouraqu by the apparent imposo

'sibility on the part of the opposing can-

didates, Hayes, Conkling, Bristow, _
Hartranft and Levi P. Morton to com-

bine their forces.

The second day was the eventful one of
the convention. Then the nominations
were made and then it was that 001.
Robert G. Ingersoll sprang intd national
celebrity in making the nomination
speech_in favor of Mr. Blaine. His' was
the’third nominating speech, and created
an unheard of scene of enthusiasm.

Other nominations followed. Mr.
Hayes’s being the next to the last and
receiving almost no attention.

Again Mr. Blaine’s ill fortune appeared
in the critical part of his career. In the
first place a stupid colored man from
Georgia made a ridiculous speech in
seconding Mr. Blaine’s nomination. It
caused even laughter after the splendid
effort of Col. Ingersoll. '

Wheii the nominations were in, the
shades of evening began to fall. The call
of the roll was begun, and it was gener-
ally admitted that Blaine would be nomi-
nated on the first ballot.

\Vhau Caused His Defeat.

The calling of the roll had proceeded
as far as Arkansas, when the announce-
ment was made that no provision had
been made to light the convention hall,
and the convention would be obliged to
adjourn until the following day. On
motion of'Mr. Frye, of Maine, the con-
vention adjourned until 10.30 the next
day. That decision was the defeat of the
popular candidate. On that night about
the hotel lobbies the arrangements were
perfected whiéh inaured the defeat of the
Plumed Knight on the‘following'day.

Blaine’s vote on the first ballot was 291
and on the seventh and last 351. Hayes
on the first received 65 and in the seventh
384, necessary for a choice, 379.

The platform that had been erected at
Washington by the friends of Mr. Blaine
to celebrate his expected nomination was
never used and on the same day Mr.
Blaine sent a congratulatory dispatch to
Mr. Hayes.

In the month of J one, 1876, Senator
Morrill resigned the Senatorship to. ac-
cept the Secretaryship of the Treasury
under Grant, and the Governor of Maine
at once appointed Mr. Blaine to fill the
unexpired term. In the .following win-
ter the Legislature of Maine elected him
for the full term, and for some years Mr.
Blaine was as conspicuous in the Senate
as he had been previously in the House.
He opposed the creation of the Electoral
Commission on the Constitutional ground
that Congress had no power to delegate
powers which it itself did not possess.

Mr. Blaine had always been in favor of
hard money, and was equally Opposed to
the adoption of a single gold standard
and the depreciation of silver by legisla-
tion. In February, 1876, he made a strong
attack on the perpetuation of an irre-
deemable paper currency. In this speech
he showed himself strongly in favor of
the national banking system, contending
that it was immeasurably superior to any
other which the country had previously
had and resisting with all his might any
return to the State banking system.

In 1878 Mr. Blaine advocated subsidies
for mail steamships in order to build up
our mercantile marine, contending that
British and French commerce had been
largely encouraged by bounties direct
and indirect. One of his favorite argu-
ments in favor of subsidies was the help
which the Federal Government had
given to the Pacific railroads.

The Convention of 1880.

At the Republican Natiopal Convention
in 1880 it seemed an almost foregone con-
clusion that Mr. Blaine would receive the
nomination. To offset Mr. Blaine’s_
chance Mr. Conkling and those who acted
with him induced Gen. Grant to come
forward for a third term. The sense of
the country was undoubtedly against a
third-term President, even in the case of
such a popular hero as the victorious
General of the war. The contest for the
nomination developed into a prolonged
struggle which lasted through. six days,
during which thirty-six ballots were
taken. Itwas then that Mr. Conkling by
his wonderful powers held 303 votes solid
for Gen. Grant until the last ballot was
taken.

The first vote stood: Grant, 304;
Blaine, 284; Sherman, 93; Edmunds, 34;
Washburn, 30; Windom, 10; Garfield, 1.

The friends of Sherman were resolute
in their determination not to vote 'for
Blaine, and the friends of Blaine were
equally determined to prevent Sherman’s
nomination, while the supporters of both
these candidates were absolute in their
refusal to support Grant for a third
term.‘ '

At length the opponents of Grant
united on Gen. Garfield, and he was nom-
inated on the thirty-sixth ballot by 30,
votes to 306 for Grant.

Gen. Garfield was duly elected, and
naturally enough offered the Secretary-
ship of State to his most valuable sup-

porter, Mr. Blaine. Mr. Blaine acccpled
the office, which he retained about ten
months. . The lamentable
of Garfield gave Ivlz‘. Blaine only about
four months effective occupancy of his
office, but in that short time he set on
foot a vigorous foreign policy which had
for its object the securing'of closer rela-
tions with the South American republics.
To this end he offered the services of the
United States as a mediator in the quar-
rel between Chili and Peru.

At the same time Mr. Blaine urged
upon the Government of Great Britain in
firm and temperate language the neces-
sity for abrOgating the . Clayton-Bulwer
treaty.

, t, a. .

Resigned His Office.

Shortly after Mr. Arthur succeeded to
the Presidency on Gen. Garfield’s death,
Mr. Blaine found that he was not in
sympathy with the new President and
resigned his oflice of Secretary of State.
"' For the first time in twenty-three years

he found himself out of political office,
and, like Senator Benton, turned his at-
tention to writing history. The fruit of
his labors was, published under the title
of “ Twenty Years in Congress,” and de-
tailed the events of national and political
importance between the years of 1869 and
.1880. The work had a wide sale at the
time of its publication and is still in use
as a book of reference.

The Republican National Convention
of 1884 was held in, Chicago. Mr. Blaine
was decidedlyathe popular candidate for
'the nomination and headed the list of
candidates on the first ballot. when he
received 334% votes, against 278 votes for
President Arthur, 93 for Senator Ed-
munds. and 63V,z for Senator Logan. He
was finally nominated on the fourth
ballot by a vote of 541 out of a 'total. of
313. He soon took the stump in his own
behalf and was received with tremendous
demonstrations of popular enthusiasm in,
Ohio,‘ Indiana, NeW' York, and - other
States. . .

The campaign developed into one of
extraordinary personal and partisan bit-
terness. The Mulligan letters were re-

 

i‘

 

vived and every scandal and slender that
could be raked up were heaped upon the
heads of the candidates.

It has often been said that what was
known as the three R’s speech of the Rev.
Dr. Samuel Dickinson Burchard, pastor
of the Murray Hill Presbyterian Church,

lost Blaine the Presidency in 1884. Dr. "

Burchard, who was born in Steuben in
1812, and who died in Saratoga September

25, 1891, was Chairman of a delegation of _

ministers that called on Mr. Blaine at the
Fifth Avenue Hotel on October 29, 1884,
just a week before the election.
introductory speech he said:

“ We are Republicans, and don’t pro-
pose to leave our party to identify our-
selves with the party whose nntecedsnta
have been rum, Romaniam and rebellion."

The speech came just at the end. of a
bitter political campaign and created a
national sensation. The managers of the
opposition exerted every/effort to.spread
it where it would do them the most good
and Blaine the greatest harm. The whole
country was placarded with the allitera-
tive expression of the indiscreet clergy-
man.

Dr. Burchard received budgets of let-
ters and telegrams, some den uncing his
sentiments and others applauding them,
while Blaine publicly disavowed them.
Two days later Dr. Burchard wrote an
open letter, in which he declared that
his words had been misunderstood and
wrongly interpreted, and that he - alone
was responsible 'for‘them. But the mic:
chief had been done, and the “ Rum, Ro-
manism and Rebellion " speech played
its part in the election.

The election finally turned on the vote
in New York State, where Blaine was
beaten by a majority of 1,047 votes. Upon
the election of Mr. Cleveland Mr. Blaine
resumed his work of “ Twenty Years, in
Congress,” which had been interrupted
by the campaign.

In 1886 Mr. Blaine- took an active part

in the Maine election. Shortly after-
ward he went to Europe, where he trav-
eled for several months on account of his

health.
Declined a Nomination.

From abroad Mr. Blaine wrote a letter
declining to again be a candidate for the
Presidential nomination. He reiterated
his statement soon afterwards, but not-
withstanding these declarations Mr.
Blaine’s candidacy was agitated at the
convention in Chicago until the nomina-
tion finally fell to Harrison through the
support of Mr. Elaine’s adherents on
June 25. 1888. . I

Just before the Republican National
Convention in J une, 1892, Mr. Blaine sud-
denly resigned the office which he had
held under President Harrison. His
friends made him a candidate for the Re-
publican nomination upon the ground
that no other man in the party could se-
cure a majority of the Electorlal College.
In spite of the rotests of the shrewdest
politicians in t a party Mr. Harrison was
renominated. i ‘

A political landslide followed and’ Mr.
Harrison was badly defeated, thus prov-
ing one part of the contention of Mr.
Blaine’s friends.

Mr. and Mrs. Blaine originally had
three sons and three daughters. The first
death in the family occurred on January
15, 1890, when Walker Blaine, the eldest
and favorite son, died after a short ill-
ness. He used to be of great assistance
to his father in the Department of State.
Less than a month later, on February 2,
1890, his favorite daughter, Mrs. John
Coppinger, wife of Col. John J. Coppin-
ger, United States Army, died.

The third blow was the death of Em-
mons Blaine, the second son, on June 18
last in Chicago. He caught cold at the
Minneapolis Convention a fortnight be-
fore, and it developed into a fatal bowel
complaint.

Margaret Blaine, another daughter, is
the wife of ~Walter Damrosch, and Miss
Harriet Blaine, her sister, is to marry
Truxton Beall, Minister to Persia. James
,G. Blaine, the last surviving son, now
lives in Washington.

Since October Mr. Blaine lived very-

quietly in Washingtdn. While reports

of his illness were frequent they did not

receive much credence.

Interested in 1Vashington Real Estate
and Blurry Other Enterprlses.

A person who was intimately ac-
quainted with Mr. Blaine said that in his
opinion, Mr. Blaine broke himself down
by intemperate work and irregular habits
of eating. Mr. Blaine was a high-pres-
sure worker. Whenever he became
deeply interested in a subject his ardent
nature led ‘ him to work beyond his
strength. He would shut himself up in
his room, would not allow himself to be
disturbed and would not eat, sleep or
rest until he had finished his task.

An example of Mr. Blaine’s habit of
continued, uninterrupted labor was fur-
nished in the early part of the Behring

Sea correspondence. He became intense-
ly absorbed in carrying on this corres-
pondence with Great Britain, and would
retire to his room where he went to work
with law books, diplomatic correspon-
dence and papers, piled high around. him.

He would start in after breakfast and
sometimes would work on steadily with-

out rest or food until 9 or 10 o’clock at

night. ‘Then he would be too fatigued
to eat and the next morning would make
up for it. These fits of labor would use
him up for a week.

He was net ordinarily a large eater.
But he was very irregular in his -eating.
Apparently he had no marked fondness
for any kind of food. He did not care
for fancy dishes and when traveling sel-
dom consulted the menu, but told the
waiter to bring him a good meal. . He
liked plain, old-fashioned cooking.

Whenever he did taste anything which

greatly pleased him he would continue to‘

eat, despite his watchful wife’s admoni-
tions. In former years he was fond of
horseback riding, and took considerable
exercise, but of late he showed much dis-
inclination to bodily exertions.

During the winter before his illness he
gave many small dinners, and was a fre-
quent diner out.

During the summer he lived on his
porch at Bar Harbor a. great deal" of the
time, and seemed to enjoy immensely
having his grandchildren about him to
talk with. The Bar Harbor cottage is. a
large building, and was chiefly remarka-
ble for its great veranda, completely en-
circling the house. A beautiful prospect
can be had from its porches, on which the
family almost lived in the summer time.
It is about twenty feet wide where it
overlooks Mount Desert ‘Bav.

.Mr. Blaine was very fond of Bar Her-
bor, and occasionally, when in a remin-
iscent mood, could tell his visitor of the
time when he might have bought the
whole island for $500. Mr. Blaine said
that when he was in the Maine Legisla-
ture he, had for a" seatmat-e Old Man

Bodick, the original settler and proprle- .

tor of. the its-lard. This was in 1858.‘ The

wealth is reckoned in these days. He
was worth close on to a million of dol-

His
holdings of coal lands are large, and with
the development of the country must
greatly increase in value if kept intact
for several years.

Mr. Blaine, by reason of his wide popu-

larity and warm friendships, enjoyed .

opportunities unusual to the average
public man, of making money. He was-
associated with a number of men of
wealth in various enterprises, and his
sagacity and business foresight kept him:
from wasting much money on brilliant
but illusionary, speculative projects. EH9,
was interested with Secretary Elk‘lns
