Maine Elections.

We clip the following from the
Burlington Times. The Pine Tree
State has, indeed, followed handsome
ly, the example set by Vermont
Maine, like Vermont, giving a larger
Republican majority this year, than
last, is pretty good evidence, that
"my policy" is regarded, to say the
least, with no more favor than the
old copperhead party. It is in sub
stance, the anne thing, with the cop
per newly FURNISHED, and we are
glad that the people, generally so un-
derStand it; and that none of them
are being misled, but with their votes,
have thus far testified a proper APP
probation OF the John5onian fabrica
ton. Let all of the loyal States, from
Maine through to the Pacific, carry
the same steady hand:

Mr.. Beeoher.

With profound surprise and grief.
we have read Mr.. Beecher's letter to
the Cleveland Convention. Our
friends will find it in another. Would
to God 1t needed no other commen-
tary in this journal than regretfnl
silence! But a sense of duty con-
strains us to accompany its publica-
ton with a solemn protest against the
public course to which it commits its
author. This letter quenches our
last hope that Mr.. Beecher was to
unite with the friends, instead of the
enemies, OF his country. We know
and love him well. Noman's motives
are purer; 10 man more affectionate-
ly reveres his native land. But, I'M
der the spell of an unhappy blindness
which has rested on his eyes for a
year past, he has done more injury to
to the America Republic than has been
done by any other citizens except
Andrew johnson. We had secretly
cherished the conviction that Mr..
beecher, during his last few months
OF silence concerning public affairs,
had been sad and thoughtful witness
OF the mischievous policy of the Presi-
dent. We could not force our mind
to believe that, in the great civil strug-
giles OF the approaching autumn, the
minister of Plymouth Church would be
found on the side of Clement L. Val
landlgham, the pirate Semmes, and the
murderers at New Orleans. OF course
Mr.. Beecher loathes these men; of
course, his letter is in a loftier and
purer strain than the common tone of
Copperhead politics; but the humiIi.
atlng fact remains that Mr.. Beecher
deliberately and officially, under his
hand and seal, has entered into league
and covenant with the johnson party :.

Can it be Possible 3?

Can it be possible that the ballot
box here in Vermont, was stuffed in
the late vote for Representative from
this district? This question we will
not undertake to answer, but give the
following facts:
Irasburgh gave Baxter l75 votes,
Hoyt At, and 8 scattering. Upon ex-
animation, there were 80 more votes
than names upon the check list To
say the least there is something about
the vote in Irasburgh which demands
explanation.
Again, Montgomery, a small town
in Franklin county, which contains a
little over 100 voters. and which cast
last year, SO votes all told, this year
gave Baxter 210, Hoyt 10, and Brig
ham 6-226 in all. We hope for the
credit of Vermont, that some satistac
tory explanation will be given, o
what thus appears to be foul play at
the polls.
Orleans independent standard. [volume] (Irasburgh, Vt.) 1856-1871, 1866-09-14
Did the Democrats vote for Hoyt?

The Baxter men said the Demo
Gratis were going to vote for Hoyt, be-
cause he was a copperhead. They
said this was especially true in Frank
lin Co., where he was well known to
be copperhead.
The vote in Franklin Co., stands,
Hoyt, 1917, Baxter, 17l3, Brigham,
1917, and 80 scattering, That hard
ly looks as though the cOpperheads
in that county supported Judge Hoyt.
viii the fair minded men in this coun-
", make note Of this, and then de-
eide in their own minds, what to think
of those men who told them that Hoyt
was copperhead, and that the cop
perheadS were everywhere going for
him. We say, make q note of this
mark it down that this statement
which led so many Of you to distruSt
Judge Hoyt, is wholly untrue. The
vote itself is the best possible proc
of it.
Orleans independent standard. [volume] (Irasburgh, Vt.) 1856-1871, 1866-09-14

ought to be defeated. The people OF
Vermont should rebuke political cor
ruption without the least hesitation,
no matter who may be guilty of it.
Since the above was in type, we
have seen circular, in which Mr..
Baxter makes a general denial OF all
the charges of corruption. He does
not, however, explain the facts already
made public, and which seem to fast
en- upon him some of the charges OF
corruption, '-MOntpeIier Freeman.
"For the credit of Vermont if half
the charges against Mr.. Baxter are
true, we sincerely hope he will be de-
feated. Let this State at least be
represented by honest n."-Brattle-
boro Phenir.
Orleans independent standard. [volume] (Irasburgh, Vt.) 1856-1871, 1866-09-14

says the same, and so says Col. Saw
yer; and that they, Benton and Saw
yer became responsible to Mr.. Baxter
for it. And Col. Sawyer says, that
Mr.. Baxter has called on him for the
money personally, and by letter at dit
ferent times. Now let US ask the
readers of the Standard, to be candid,
and answer this question. If you
were jurors, and the same proof was
produced, how could you help finding
averdict of guilty?
In this connection it should be re-
membered that Mr.. Baxter has only
made a general denial, Of all charges
brought against him; but he has not
in any manner, undertaken to explain
this Storrs transaction; nor has he
alluded to it particularly. The sub
stance of what he says is that it Is
all false. Now in order to believe
him, you have got to believe that
Storrs, Sawyer, and Benton all lie;
and that they have told their lie out
of whole cloth that there is not rem
nanf Of truth In it. You can at once
see that this would be an eXtravagant
asking, if made Of you as jurors, in a
court of'+iustice. But enough. We
were convinced that Mr.. Baxter did
III the StorrS case, stipulatc Tor the
payment, to him, Of $3.50 per 0nnum ;
and we felt sure, this being the case
that no considerable number woulc
vote for his return to Congress. Blu
in this we find ourselves mistaken.-
Mr.. Baxter really has a large vote
but he is not elected. The Governor
will issue hiSproclamation, for anoth
er election on the first Tuesday 0
! November, when plurality will elect
In the meantime We ask the freemel
of the Sd District, to consider thi
whole matter candidly. Be patien
