The watering the chief streets in this city is

The public benefit would be very great, if in
Portland, we could have hydrants of this sort
widely distributed about the town, at which
the water-carts could be freely supplied. In
that case, the dwellings on all our principal
streets would freely pay the small cost neces-
sary to keep down the dust. The supply Of
water to the town may be limited only by the
capacity of the main pipes, for Sebago could
furnish all the towns of New England without

The excitement and enthusiasm ordinarily
attending political campaigns, render the du-
ties of town and city committees comparative
~ light. When everybody is wrought up with
enthusiasm, and personally interested in the
result, it is not difficult for them to find active
cooperation and efficient aid on every hand.
Consequently, they are ordinarily charged
with the simple duty of directing the general
copduc. of affairs in their immediate vicinity,
and lind plenty of volunteers to carry out their
wishes and attend in person to every detail.
The year succeeding Presidential election in
variably shows falling off in enthusiasm and
interest, and devolves upon local committees
unusual labor and grave responsibilities.
Especially is this true at the present time
The Republicans are for the most part happy
IN the consciousness that at the last election
they saved the country, and have turned their
attention to the management of their farms
and workshops. and business affairs, satisfied
that all will be well under the discreet leader
snip OF Gen. Grant and the wise craftsmanship
OF Republican Congress. Like the man who
went to sleep under the minstrations of his
old minister, because he had found by long ex-
perience that he preached sound doctrine al
ways, and could be implicitly trusted, the Re.
publicans have serenely abandoned themselves
to certain kind of Indifference which must
be shaken off before the day of election. To
overcome this Indifference to q reasonable
extent is peculiarly within the province of To-
cal committees. They do picket duty for the
main army and should seasonably apprise
it OF the approach of every foe. We call
upon these gentlemen therefore, to bestir them
selves at once. Organize your committee, look

The new issue presented by the Dcmocra-
cy this year, so far as anything tangible can
be eliminated from the vague tentative dec
larations of State and County conventions, IS
reputation. In The Eastern States, the high
or civilization Of the people does not permit
the managers of the party to take definite
ground on the financial question, but the
general direction of the opposition in the
East is the same as that taken BY the Democ-
racy of the West. 1t is fundamental law cf
American conservatism that no basis of DO
litical action can be adopted that is not in
some way antagonistic to the honor and good
repute of republican institutions. Accord
ingly we see the Democracy of Ohio, repe-
ssntlns their associates in all parts of the
country, nominating Pendleton for Governor
OF that State, with the avowed intention OF
making him eligible as candidate for the
Presidency in 1872. Every Democratic tri-
umph, whether absolute or relative, which is
Der, will stimulate the efforts of Ohio repu-
diators to make the success ofthe King OF re-
pudiators sure No greater calamity could
occur to the nation than Pendleton's election.
The weight of the public debt, with the dis
credit cast upon our financial standing by the
Misrepresentation of Democratic writers, is
already sufficiently burdensome. With the
prospect of the election of Democratic re-
pudiator to the great office now held by one
Who has upheld the honor of his country
alike on the field of battle and in the admin
istration of civil affairs, superadded to the
present financial complications, the funding
of the national debt at lower rate OF inter-
est and the resumption of specie payments
would be indefinitely postponed.
Republicans of Maine, the enemy that you
have fought,so persistenty and so successfully
for the last decade is plotting secretly to rob
you of the fruits of your coaquests We can
not afford this year any better than last
to ignore the danger that threatens from the
Vaccinations Of the common foe. 1t is not
yet time 10 allow our attention 10 be diverted
from issues that affect the very life CT the
nation to those that are at least Of secondary
importance. The effect of the September
election in Maine will have the same weight
in national politics this year that it always
has had. Let not Pendletonism. hateful alike
to gods and men, receive any encouragement
from our suffraoes.
