Good News from Maine.
The election in Maine takes place
early in September. 1t is contest
very similar in character to that which
is now going on IN Ohio. All Of the
fanatical elements Of the State-Abo-
lition. Maine Law and Know Nothing
have united upon the present Gov
enor. Morrill. red -mouthed Adolf
ZIONIST. for reelection. The Demo
Gratis run Judge Wells. and the Ma
tional Wings Mr.. Reed. Although
formerly Democratic State, TO the
last two or three years she has been
strongly against us. But !atterly
there has been great reaction among

The Election in Maine.
The annual State election in Maine
takes place tomorrow. There are
three candidates for Governor-Wells,
Democrat; Morrill,. Fusionist. and
Reed, old line Wing. The canvass
has been very animated, the Demo-
Gratis taking strong ground against
Abolitionism, Know Nothingism and
the Maine Law, meeting fair and
square all the issues rendered by their
opponents. Last year the vote for
Governor was as follows:
Morrill,, (Fusionist) 44,852
Paris. (Democrat) 1886
Cary. (bolting Democracy 5,424
Reed (old-line whig) 1907
Morrill,, not having majority over
all, according TO law, was defeated be-
fore the people. but was subsequently
chosen by the Legislature.
This year we have strong hopes
that Samuel Wells. Democrat, will be
the next Governor Of Maine.-Sept. a.
Maine Election Probably Democratic
We will not exult before we are out
OF the woods, but the returns from
Maine certainly look as If the "Star in
the East" was redeemed from Know
Nothing Abolition misrule. The tel.
egraph states that in one hundred and
sixty towns the Abolition X now Moth
ing Maine-Law nominee for Governor
Morrill,, is only about three thousand
votes ahead Of Wells, the Democratic
candidate, and lacks three thousand of
having hhJosy o'cI MI US lhc law
requires. The probability is, that in
the whole State Wells will have ma
ority over his Abolition Know Moth
ing competitor, although last year
the latter beat Paris. Democrat, six.
teen thousand votes.-Sept. l2.

| "oh, have 20 no. heard the news from Maine
Maine, Name, all honest and truef"
The above is an extract from a
Wing, hard.cider couplet of $40. and
is very appropriate to the present &C.
casion. Maine dealt the demo-
Gratis severe blow that year. and she
has even now dealt the Fusionists even
a harder and more decisive one, that
will have most tremendous effect up
on all the Northern elections. Sept. IL.
