But we survived il an, aud now feel
thankful that we have lived to witness a
complete triumph in Ellsworth of Amer

Had not the Mayor forgotten himself in
the excitement of the occasion. the mat

the SIN Of this murder, for il was nothing

When a great efiec, has been prodac-

PORTLAND.
la this city resides the trinity OF the
laH-the INTERCHANGEABLE crea, nognl
OF temperance throughout the CIVILIZED
world Mat Dow. He rs Mayor Q.
that CITY now. but 1t Is probably the last
civil Office he vi. ever hold IN the Safe:
aud a. for military oiiice, lis brief eNpe-
rleaee last Saturday night, in which by
his orders, the innocent citizens were
shot down like dogs, we think viii satisfy
his ambition OF that score through all
coming time.
We are wiling to accord Neal Dow
the credit Of being a good apostle IN the
cause OF temperance, aud that he has
done great anoun, OF good as lectur-
er but that lie is iii for The etiice oil
Mayor, we deny. Such men as Dow
and Weaver NAV be entered III the same
category; ,ney are both good men III their
places. Both are eleqnen, men. bu, this
qualification no more tits them Tor the
Office OF Mayor and Marshal than the
cabinet makers trade qualities man 10
be master OF a seveaty four gun ship,
We are sorry TO find the friend OF the
Name law endorsing the course OF two
sucn men, because we think II needs no
prophetic vision TO foresee that II must
end IN bringing the law into dlsrepute. -
Besides we do not consider II a test Of
any mans devotion 10 a cause TO always
hurra for the leaders, tight or wrong, but
rather an evidence 81 devotion 10 men, not
principles. The true friend OF good
cause would sooncr sacr liice his best
Trend on earth than his principles; but
the prcfenied friend oil the cause viii
ever be ready 10 turn a somerset oil pm
clpes whenever the leaders dictate.
So much for our views upon the Maine
law. This article may win Tor US curses
from Dow aud Weaver men, but before
they annahtate US entirely We ask them
10 pause moment just long enough to
re liecl that no man should be taken as The
exponent OF great public principle;
neither Dow, nor Weaver nor our hum
bic self We ask them to scrutInize our
acts before calling US ruAmy, and TO
extend To US the same charity We extend
to Dow and Weaver-good friends oil the
Iaw-good in their places-mep whose
intentions may be fight, but whose move
ments are wrong.
