A Talk witk Blaine Gpecial Dispateh to Tun Lea. 5 CHICAGO, September 19, —The Tri- bune this morning publishes an im- ortant interview with James G. Blaine, In it Mr. Blaine emphati- cally disclaims all sympathy with Ma- hone and the readjuster party in Vic- ginia. He takee the ground that the republican pariy could not, without violation of principle, make any recog- nition of repudiauion, and that the re- publican success 1 1880 was due ¢ its unfailing devotion to the upholdiag of the public fai He ulways regarded itas a great political bluuder for the republican party to uuite with the ze- adjusters of Virginia, The readjustars were nothiog less than the repudiating wing of the Vuginia democracy, and to unite with thom was considered by hiwm to be the last degree ot fally on tho part of the republicans. e, Blaino’s view of the difforence be- tween the Mahone democrats ard the bourbons was thav the latter propesed to settle and compromise with the creditors of the siate on such terms as the creditors would accept, while the Mahone party excluded creditors from all voice 1 the metter, and themselves fixed upon whieh they would eettlo, That Was repudiation, and the repub lican party could not unite with that in whatever shape 1t was proposed, or by whom it was supported. Kor this reason his sympatkios were with the atraight republican party, and not with the readjusters. Having thus pointedly expressed his opinion of Makouism, Mr, Blaine further stated his ewn conviction of what should be dore with the state of Virginia, confessedly unable ever to pay 18 debt. Virginia was the great- est sufferer by the eonfederate war. She aloue of all rebel states suffored digmemberment for her share in that war, The United States as a war measure tore from Virginia the territory known as West Virginia and erected it into a new state, The loss wus & great one. It was not asked | for by Virginia, nor even by West Virginia, but was purely a war meas- ure. The United States has made no compensation or remuneration for this teeritory forcibiy acquired. When the United States took territory by war from Mexico a price was paid for it. When the Uaited States induced Texas, then a state in the union, to contract her boundaries and cede the large territory comprised within the present state of Colorado and the ter- rivory of New Mexico 810,000,000 was voted in compensation by forced dis- memberment. In Virginia an em- pire of wealth was taken from the old state and Mr. Blaine was willing, in coasideration thereof, that the United States should uow aid her 1 settling | her anti-war debts. Me. Blaine also answers the criti- ciems which Carl Schurz made of Blaine's administration in avery trank manner, and shows that Schurz was a spurious reformer aud violated his own civil service rules in the interior department, “What does Mr, Schur mean by saying that you come to the surface as a reformer now in your adversity/ inquired the reporter. "I don't know his meaning pre cisely,"” said Mr. Blaine, ‘‘unless that being out of office I should naturally joln malcontents, of whom he has always been one. Unlike Mr, Schurz, I do not esteem it adversity to be be out of office. Unlike Mr. Schurz, I never held an oftice that was not generously offered me without seeking, an experience which would be very novsl to Me. Schurz, and very unlike the persistency with which he sought, under Mr. Lincoln, a foreign mission which he soon abandoned to seek a major general’s comrission, for which he proved incompetent. No more persistent oftice seeker than Mr. Schurz ever landed on these shores or w s borz. on this soil, who has tried it in | three states and is now settled 1n the fourth,"” Bay State Bourbons. Special Dispat h to Tun Brx. Bosroy, September 19.—The dem- ocratic state convention was called to order and Gen. B. F. Butler nomi- nated for governor. Rewolutions were adopted pledging the democratic party to support all legislation tending to reduce the hours of labor and amelio- rating the condition of the laboring man, Tarbox said that, while in favor of the principles enunciated, he was op- posed to admitting any resolution not fully considered by the conveation, The language of a resolation is often misconstrued when not carefally con- sidered and worded. When adopting a policy we should act with caution and deliberation. The resolution presented is too vaguely worded to be adopted in its present shape. The platform adopted is as follows: The democrats of Massachusetts, in convention assembled, believing the time has fally come when many needed reforms of the government should be boldly undertaken, invite the co-opera- tion of all liberal and progressive citi- 2ens in the good work of initiating a new political departure alike in the state and in the nation, that shall res- | olutely discard dead issuss that have too long been postponed, and we offer to them a platform worthy of their acouptance. Supremacy of the nation with con- stitutioual limits and integrity of the state; cgual rights, cqual powers and equal burdens, equal privileges, and equal proteciion by law under the government for every eitican of the republic; impartial freedom of the ballot and abolition of all laws, whether on the statute books faimed at an eqaal limitation of the right of suffrage and partial witholding of the | sacred and fundwmental righta of re- | presentation reform;in civil service; | fitness, not favor s passport to the public service; opposition to political rescssments; thorongh and immediate reform of the tariff to one for revenue only; foetering American commerce and elevating American labor; de- mands reduction of state taxes; de- clares agwinst sumptusry laws and class legislation; holds the safoty of democratic| institutions depends on the prosperity of the laboring classes; | pledges party support to reasonable | logislation tending to lessen the hours of Iabor and increase wages, and says the condition of the laboring classes demand immediate attention, Adjourned, Mitchell Nominated. | Special Dispatch to Vs Bus | Sanem, Oregon, September 19.- The republican caucus nominated Mitchell for senator by 34 votes, 12 | more than required to elect.

Oue of the horses got his head through the glass and his fore feet on the | inside of the sill and the other got his nose in, The window was of three- eights inch glass and breaking cut the faces of the animals considerably. Manager Rheom was sitting at his desk, about six feet from the window, and was struck by pieces of flying glass, He thought the end of the world had come, and looking up saw the two horses looking at him in a sorrowful manner. Meauwhile Mr. Bell was picked up looking quite pale and was taken over to the Wabash offico and Dr, Gibbs was called in* Mr. Bell was found to have his right side injured and his left leg and his left wrist hurt.
