Meeting at Onrtlincr.
Tho people of (lardiner and vicinity
will be addressed next Saturday evening
on political issues by Senator Blaine sind
Hon. Thomas Fitch of Nevada. This
will be Mr. Blaine's first appearance up
on the stump in this campaign, Garni
tier republicans will give him an enthu
siastic reception and a big audience. They
will also be pleased to hear the orator
from the new western State, wonderful in
its growth and richness, the home of;
many ot the sons of Maine. This meet- ;
ing will start the boom in Kennebec which
will give 2,500 majority to the republican
ticket in the county next September.
Wherever active, work in tho canvass
has began the result has given the great
est satisfaction. There never has been a
deeper earnestness manifested among the j
mass of republicans than at the present
time. Very soon the whole State will bo
alive with meetings. The prospect of a
great victory is becoming clearer with
every day that passes.
The Bath Times says it is a slander
upon the foir name of that city to assert
that the liquor law is not enforced there.
A Democratic Sweep.
The word which comes from the State
election in Alabama on Monday last is that
the result is a “clean democratic sweep.” j
In a State where there is a large opposi- j
Hon majority the minority have prevailed.1
All the opposiHon, consisting of green
backers, republicans and independents
unite*], bnt democratic management was j
superior to numbers.
There ha- lieen a change in tactics |
in the South since the democrats i
had the returning officer*. Bulldozing is ;
tonnd to be unnecessary where the count- j
ing of the votes is in the hands of demo
cratic officials, so the violent mode ol
making a "clean democratic sweep” has j
in some measure been laid aside and
counting out the opposition has been sub- -
sHtnted. This is an easier, less expensive,
and just as certain method of securing
democratic victories in the South a*bull
dozing: and, beside that, it puts an cud to
stories of outrage which injure the J
democrats in the North.
It is possible that Mr. Weaver, the
greenback candidate for President may
have pleased himself with the idea that
his appeals for an honest vote and fair
count would lie regarded, but he tealizes
now that his party has been counted out
as well as the republicans; greenbackers
lieing ju«t as obnoxious to Alabama dem
ocrats as lepublicans, and as certain to be
counted out or bulldozed when standing
in the way of a "clean democratic
sweep.”
There ought to he a lesson in this for
Maine greenbackers to ponder over, if
they are not *o tightly bound in the bonds
of fusion as to be incapable of looking
but in one direction. If this wrong against
an honest ballot and fair count shall not
be rebuked by the people where a rebuke
may lie made effective, what is the ballot
good for an*l how long can our govern
ment endure when the will of the majority
as expressed at the polls is tiamplcd
under foot and the returning officers count
in and count out whomsoever they please ?
We have no doubt that the ticket which
Mr. Weaver supported received a majority
ol the votes cast in Alabama last Monday,
but what of that ? Democratic officials
had the counting of the votes and the re
sult is that they have ro counted them
that they have made a “clean democratic
sweep.”
While the Maine Standard is clamoring
lor a more thorough enforcement
ot the Honor laws, the Progressive Age of
the same political party urges making a
clean sweep ot prohibition. In the last
issue it said : “And is it not time that the
prohibitory law, which assumes to deter
mine what the people shall or shall not
drink even to the extent of .apple juice;
which puts them under a system ot espion
age ; which is in violation of the consti
tution of the State ; which subverts pop
ular rights and outrages popular senti
ment, should be repealed, and a law en
acted in its place more in accord with true
science and the character of an enlighten
ed, free people ?”
Solon Krpinliates Fusion.
Solon Chase refuses to accept a nomination
on the fusion elec toral ticket, ami denounces
the action of the greenback and democratic
committee. His Enquirer says r
‘•A fusion electoral ticket with either of
the old parties is abandonment of the great
national principles that gave the greenback
party existenc e. It is net thought of in any
State except Maine, and would not he here it
the democratic: party could stand alone.
If the greenback county conventions see fit
to nominate men from the* old parties, that is
their own local affair, and they will soon get
sick of it. Hut for the greenback party to
put hard money electors on the Presidential
ticket is to forfeit all claims for any regard
to principle and to lose the respect of honest
men of all parties.
Han* ock and English—what a ticket tor a
grccnhackcr!
If we don’t make a fusion elec toral ticket
it is said the democrats will run straight tick
ets. Why shouldn’t they? If they believe
the hard money doctrine in their platform
why don't they seek to make come ts by ad
vocating the ir principles? If they have any
distinctive prim iples they are certainly an
tagonistic to the principles of the greenback
party.**
Dr. Tanner’s C ondition.
Or. Tanner lies, a shapeless heap, muffl' d
in blankets, on his cot in the south gallery of
Clarendon llall. From a little distance a
few gray hairs standing stiffly out are all
that show that anything except blankets is on
the cot. Presently the heap moves uneasily
and a face appears at one’ end of the bed—a
face in which there is something intent, fierce
and wolfish as the man suddenly aw akes and
fcehlv raises himself on his arm. Then he
seats himself on the edge of the cot, and a
film seems to come over the sunken eyes,that
lose tln ir lustre and become half closed, as if
weighed down by a remorseless weariness.
As the face, still shuwinga dull color, settled
into repose this morning, it seemed to In*
draw n into a scries of lines converging to the
point of the nose.
Three deep wrinkles in the middle of the
brow gave an aspect of anxiety and suffering
to the face. Rigid lines extended to the cor
ners of the mouth. Heavy shadows *ere
visible under the cavernous eyes, and the
skin was tightly drawn over the hones of the
forehead and checks. A slightly tremulous
motion was visible in the once firmly set
lips, oidy tightly closed now when the owner
becomes excited and aroused. As the man
sat on his cot the head warily sank forward,
as if his shrunken neck were powerless to
support it. He buried his face in his hands—
no longer white, but of an almost purplish
hue. His bent back, drooping head and
nerveless hands told of a moment of despon
dency. and presented a picture of intense hut
silent misery.
Then the man slowlv rose, wavering a lit
tle at first, and half reaching out as if for
some support. His head was still bent for
ward : his rounded shoulders made his chest
seem flat, and bis loosely hanging clothing
easily brought belief in the fact that he had
lost 21 pounds in 24 days. A few steps were
taken, the slippered feet shuffling heavily
along the bare floor, and the weak limbs
trembling a little underneath the weight they
almost failed to support. Then some one
spoke, and the man seemed to realize that
every motion was closely watched. His
head went up. the iron jaws settled firmly
together, and a new light caine into the
clouded eves. With a trace of his old-time
vigor the feeble walker increased his pace,
taking long strides, although his feet still
shuffled along the floor. Soon the steps
grew slower—the body made its claims felt
even against the imperious domination of the
will—an»l turning to his chair the weary man
sank i-»to it with a half-uttered sigh of re
lief. He looked vacantly around for a mo
ment. then feeling that the necessity for ex
ertion was past, his head again drooped for
ward. and he looked asleep, or busied in dis
mal thoughts of himself. Such is Dr. Tan
ner. His careworn face and unnatural eyes
show plainly the emaciation, anxiety and suf
fering that be has un forgone — Traveller. 2d. |
From the Sew York Tribune .
Dodging a Vital Question.
General Hancock talks as fluently about
the constitution as his friend the late Andrew
Johnson used to when “swinging round the
‘•circle.” He devotes a large part of his let
ter of acceptance to such profound wisdom
a* this: “The constitution forms the basis j
of “the Government of the United States.
He .ays that neither the General nor the State |
governments should trench upon the jurisdic
tion of the other, a truism we have heard
before. He lays down old, well-worn max
ims a* though they were newly-discovered
truths. “Tlie powers granted by the consti
“tutionto the Legislative, Executive and Ju
dicial Departments define and limit the
“authority of the general government,” he
says, which nobody will deny. He has space
enough in his ietter for such phrases as
these, but he has not a word to say about a
matter of the utmost importance to a large
portion of the American people. The Cin
cincinnati platform declares in favor of “free
“ship*" and “a tariff for revenue only."
Hundreds of thousands of workingmen whose
interests are directly at stake in this matter
have been waiting to hear what General Han
cock thinks of these declarations. He does
not even mention them. Amid the lawn*
and gardens of Governor's Island, kept in
order bv a liberal government for the pleas
ure of himself and his brother officers, with
soldiers in handsome uniforms to do his bid
ding. and a band to drive dull care away with
the latest opera airs, he doubtless forgot that
there are grimy hard-handed mechanics and op
erative* toiling in workshops, ship-yards and
factories to whom this tariff question is one
of bread and clothes and shelter for them
selves and their families. Perhaps he does
not know what a revenue tariff is. A man
w ho ha* been a soldier all his life cannot be
expected to have very clear ideas on matters
of legislation and political economy, or per
haps the democratic politicians told him he
had better dodge the question because the
less said about it here in the East the better
for the party.
Well, the workingmen do not intend that
the question shall be dodged in this canvass.
They will interpret General Hancock’s silence
as an acquiescence in the Cincinnati platform.
Their logic will be simple and direct. “If
“lie does not believe in a tariff for revenue
“only,” they will say, “he would have said
“so in his letter.” They know very well
what that little phrase “for revenue only” sig
nifies. It means that the protective system
established by the republican party, upon
which all our vast manufacturing interests
rest, is to be abolished, and heavy importa
tion of foreign goods encouraged by low du
ties. The more importations the more rev
enue. The more goods imported the less
will there be for American workmen to make.
With less work for them to do will come
lower wages, a scarcity of employment, hard
times and poverty. All this is as plain as
that two and two make four.
The mechanics in the ship-yards of Maine,
Pennsylvania and Delaware know tliat “free
“ships" mean ships bought in England, Scot
land and Norw ay to engage in our coastwise
and foreign trade under our Hag in competi
tion with our home-built craft. For every
such foreign ship given an American register
they know there will be one less for them to
build. The “free ships" policy of the demo
cratic party would close every important
ship-yard in the country within a year. The
iron-workers of Pennsylvania, Ohio, In
diana and Missouri know that for every ton
of foreign iron laid down in our docks there
is one ton less for them to make. They un
derstand perfectly well that a tariff designed
to stimulate importations of iron would ruin
the iron industry in this country and reduce
them to poverty. So it is with the silk weav
ers and leather manufacturers of New Jersey,
the spinners and weavers of Massachusetts,
the hardware and tool makers of Connecti
cut. and with all the members of that great
army of artisans of whom General Garfield
speaks in l.is letter of acceptance, “whose
“intelligence and skill” he savs, “power
“fully contribute to the safety and glory of
“the Nation. ’ They all know that their
welfare depends upon the continuance of the
present wise system of moderate protection
to home industries.
Here is an army which General Hancock
cannot command. The former rebels of the
I South will rally at his call, and with them
will rome the rabble of the great cities, and
the ignorant, bigoted partisans, who vote the
democratic ticket without caring what the
principles and purposes of the party are; but
the intelligent workingmen will not vote for
a party that proposes to take the bread out of
their mouths, or for a candidate who has not
a word to say in their behalf. They will
support the party that has built up their in
dustries by fostering legislation, and the can
didate who is himself a workingman, and
whose record on the tariff, made by the votes
and speeches of seventeen years in Congress
and emphasised by his letter of acceptance,
is plain and consistent in its advocacy of the
claims of American labor.

elastic. When digestion begins and gases
are formed its stomach becomes so distended

Me. Editor:—I see by the published ar
couuts of the greenback district convention,
recently held at Gardiner, that B. E. Lancas
ter was chairman ot the committee that made
the call. Was it the same B. F. Lancaster
wlio was State Superintendent of Public
buildings last year? Who sold property of
the State, intrusted to ids keeping, pocketing
the proceeds of such sale—and has refused or
neglected to account for the same to date?
It a common laborer were charged with such
an act, lie would be arrested at once for
larceny, embezzlement or some crime of that
class. Did the conventions that put Mr.
Philbrick in nomination endorse tlds act or
did they condemn it? Did the same lmdv
condemn or did it endorse Gov. Garcelon,
who appointed this man Lancaster, and who
declared under oath that lie and his Council
had drawn from the Treasury of the State
seven thousand dollars without a shadow of
right or of law for such an act. a part of
which large sum lias not been accounted for
to this day? Dili the convention held in
this city on the same day. that endorsed the
nomination of Mr. Philbrick. condemn or
endorse the ar ts of these men? The people

DYSPEPSIA
Does not get well of itself; it requires careful, per
sistent attention and a remedy that will assist nature
to throw off the causes and tone up the digestive
organs till they perform their duties willingly. Mrs.
Bosworth, of Amherst, X. II., after trying many
"sure cures” without benefit, found that
Hood’s Sarsaparilla
hit the nail on the head and restored her to health.
Among the agonies experienced by the dyspeptic, are
distress before or after eating, loss of appetite, irregu
larity of the bowels, wind or gas and pain In the
stomach, heart-bum, sour stomach. Ac., causing
mental depression, nervous irritability and sleepless
ness. If you are discouraged be of good cheer and try
Hood’s Sarsaparilla. It has cured hundreds, it will
cure you if you give it a fair chance.

Who I, Mr,. lVln,low!
As this question is frequently asked, we
wilt simply say that she is a lady who for up
wards of thirty years lias untiringly devoted
her time and talents as a female physician
and nurse, principally among children. She
has especially studied the constitution and
wants of this numerous class, and, as a re
sult ot this effort and practical knowledge,
obtained in a lifetime spent ns nurse and phy
sician, she lias compounded a Soothing Syrup
for children teething. It operates like magic
—giving rest and health, and is moreover,
sure to regulate the bowels. Inconsequence
of this article, Mrs. Winslow is becoming
world-renowned as a benefactor of her race;
children certainly do risk it and Idess her;
especially is this the case in this city. Vast
quantities of the Soothing Svrup are ntu.v
sold and used here. We think Mrs. Wins
low has immortalized her name by this in
valuable article, and we sincerely believe
thousands of children have been saved from
an early grave by its timely use. and that
millions yet unborn will share its benefits,
and unite in calling her blessed. No motii
f.r has discharged her duty to her stiflering
little one, in our opinion, until she has given
it the benefit ot Mts. Winslow's Soothing
Syrup. Try it. mother*—try it sow.—/,«
