A Mnificant fact in Ainericun politic j
is the melting away of the enormous Re.
publican majorities in the great state. Oj
the northwest. l-'or many years tlioe ma.
joritius ranged in several of these states
from fifty to one hundred thousand. In
18S0 Senator Conkliu";, at tlr; Chicago
Convention when Blaine's nomination
was advocated by a Michigan delegation
said, "anybody," meaning, of course, any
Republican, "can carry Michigan." So i
was at that time. Michigan had frequent
ly given sixty and seventy thousand Re
publican majority. In 1884, only four
years later, Michigan was saved to the
Republican party by a beggarly majority
of 3000, and only because the vice presid
ential candidate, General Logaa, traversed
the state ou the eve of the election, and
made the most earnest personal appeals t
hi-(, rami Army friends. Northwestern
Democrats really believe Democratic
chance for iS'JS are good in Michigan, Wis
cousin, Minnesota and even in Illinois
Kcpualicand politicans of course deny
this, hut it is wonderful to note how cau"
tious they are in making estimates of the
result-. A western senator, a Republican
presidential candidate, said today, in the
course of conversation on political pros"
pects in the we-t, that he thought the Re'
publicans could carry Illinois by 10.000
and Michigan and Wisconsin by 5000 each
As he was not talking for publication he
of course expressed his honest sentiments"
His estimate gives the Republicans a fear.
fullv narrow margin in these states which
anybody could carry" so short a time
back.
