Cure Of Lesion Of the Liver.
A gentleman. after severe sickness, had lesion Of
the liver. Every quick movement or sudden jar
gave him severe pain, often laying him up for days.
Hence he was unable to follow any occupation with
regularity.
In this condition, he applied over the part Affected
an Allcock's Porous Plaster. At first, it seemed to
irritate, 80 it was taken off. But the marked i'm
provement he experienced afterward gave him cour.
to try again. and therefore applied another plas.

One Mengis is stumping Massachusetts, in
favor OF bestowinP the ballot on minors. He
would give the right of suffrage to all boys over
eighteen years of age. Mr. Mengis spoke in
Mansfield on saturday. His views are en-
dorsed by Franklin Haven, E. c. Bailey of the
Boston Herald, George C. Richardson, and
other prominent citizens.
The Pittsburg Commercial thinks there il
something wanting i'm the programme for the
Boston Musical Jubilee. Twenty thousand
voices are to be accompanied by bells, musket-

eruption and an earthquake. Special arrane
ments should be made, too, for thunder and
lightning.

The MASSACHUSETTS .CLAnMs.-lt Is unfor-
tunate that an enterprise of even more than
national Importance, like the European and
North American Railroad, must be delayed in
its completion by the petty prejudice against
Massachusetts which obtains in Congress.
Yet it seems that the Senate has refused to
pay the interest due her for expenditures, for
the national defence in 1912, which has been
granted to the railroad in anticipation ofsits
payment by the general government. This
claim for interes. is not, as the New York
Herald describes it, one of the corrupt railroad
swindles that have been foisted in great nu n
bers upou Congress the present session, but
Just such claim as has been prosecuted by
other States and allowed. Maine has given to
the European and North American road
which asks nothing Of the general government
almost the entire remnant of our public lands.

A Soldiers Inaugural.

zen. Grants inaugural, which we print in
another column, is in marked contrast with
those Of his immediate predecessors. There are
an 1t none Of those aphoristic sentences to be
taken up by the people and made into prov
erbs, which abounded in the public addresses
Of Lincoln, none Of the aggressive spirit that
lurked in every paragraph Of our late acciden-
tai Presidents State papers, and hardly any
traces OF the accomplished politicians hand
such as were found in Buchanans inaugural
1t is the production of a man who Is chary vi
words and not gifted in the framing oil SEN
tenees; of.a man who thinks and acts more
than he talks and writes. Every line bears the
unmistakable impress of its author, and none
who read il will have the efrontery 10 charge as
they would be most glad to do, that he called
any friend to his aid in its composition. Its
rude strength land the telegraph has certainly
NOT taken of any Of its rough corners) win
commend it the more to the people, 10 whom
it conveys in firm but temperate tone these
welcome assurances:
First, there Is to be no more conflict between
the Executive and Legislative branches Of the
government Grant reiterates his former dec
larat'on that he shall have no policy to enforce
against the will Of the people. He will use the
veto power If he thinks best, but will execute
all the laws, whether approved by him or not
Second, the Presidents influence will be
given unreservedly against every form of re-
pudistion. There is no mstaking his language
on this point, or the effect of it in Europe,
where our bonds advanced yesterday to point
never reached before.
Third an tor h;o ia, 1.
control of his subordinates are able to secure
the collection of the revenue and its honest
and economical disbursement, these things will
be done.
Fourth, our foreign policy under Grant will
be firmer than it has been hitherto, but just
and cautious. Newspaper correspondents have
of late given the most extravagant accounts of
the fllibustering and sanguinary views of
Grant with respect to foreign nations. These
reports are not justified in the smallest degree
by anything contained in General Grants ad.
dress.
Fifth, Gen. Grant is. entirely in sympathy
with the party that elected him on the suffrage
question, and recommends the passage of the
10Th amendment as the best means of reaiz-
ing his most cherished sentiment, "Let us have
peace"
Verbal criticism has no function to perform
with language that clearly expresses views like
the above We have had thousand accom-
plished phrase makers to one honest and sue
cessful official. Mcclellan could write elegant
dispatches, but couldn't fight. 1t is enough for
the American people to know that Gen. Grants
administration will have earnest patriotism to
inspire it, and honesty, economy, Justice and
peace for its leading purposes.

INAUGURATION BALL OF THE "BLUEs."-The
ball given by the Portland Mechanic Blues
last evening at City Hall was very handsome
affair. The galleries were well filled with
spectators, while the floor was occupied by a
gay party, 50 numerous that any other hall in
the city would have been inadequate to have
contained them. Representatives were pres
ent in uniform of the Strafford Guards of
Dover, Portland Light Infantry, and the old
Portland Rifle Corps, the sight of which ia
miliar garb recalled, to the recollectisn of
many, the time when the militia organizations
of this city were in most flourishing condi-
ton, and revived the hope that the future
might be as bright as the past. The dancing
was entered into with great spirit by all, and
as dance succeeded dance, and cotillon gave
place to polka, the untiring feet still kept time
to the splendid music of Chandler's Band till
late, or rather early hour. 1t was great
success, and adds one more to the many sue
cesses of the "Blues."
