The Hon. Noah Woods of Bangor has been
appointed one of the trustees of the State Re
form School.
The State Superintendent of common
schools will suggest to the Governor and
Council the names of sixteen individuals for

Candidates for the cadetship to the United

The Greas VICTORY in Couuec,icu,.

~ oNASe%s 'ASeSAy AAA COAhACssaNAs'
The Republican triumph in Connecticut,
Monday, was far more decisive than the Re
publicans themselves anticipated. Our latest
news at the time of this writing indicates a
majority of 500 against Gov English, the ma
jority in his favor last year being 1896 More
over, in the first Congressional district, where
the Democratic majority was IA last spripg
Julius L. Strong, the Republican candidate
for Congress, has been elected over DiXoh' tlle
apostate Senator. This defeat OF DIXON IS
even more gratifying than that OF English for
Governor But better than all is the result of
the election for the State Legislature Our
advces are to the effect that the Republicans
have 20 majority in the House-the same as
last year-and majority in the Senate, gain
of2. This i,asatres the ratification of the If
tsenth constitutional amendment by Connecticut.
The Democrats, it is true, claim that many
conservative Republicans Ia plague upon
that paradoxcal monastery have been elected
who will vote against the amendment But
conservative Republicanism has brought with
it too many pains and penalties in Connec-
ticut to make it popular there any longer
The defeat of Hawley in 1866, of Jewell in
1868 and the general decentralization of the
party in consequence of the rejection of the
negro suffrage amendment to the State con-
stitution taught lesson that is sure not TO be
lost Unless there is some mistake about the
Republican majority in the legislature we
haven't the slightest anxiety about the amend
ment So Republcansm rules at last in all
New England. Connecticut has ceased to be
a suburb of New York city, and unites with its
sister States in upholding the principles o.
genuine democracy.
The two State elections that have occurred
since the Inauguration OF Grant indicate that
the people of the United States will give him {
heartier support than has been accorded to
most of his predecessors Their confidence
has not been shaken by anything that has oc-
CURED since the Inauguration, but has been
confirmed and strengthened. 1t will probably
be many years-yes, centuries, before anoth-
or ''great Democratic victory can be claimed
in New England.

Auburn voted on Monday on the question of
union with Lewiston. The vote was small,
and the project was defeated by sixteen major
ity.
The Lewiston Journal says last Thursday a
girl, giving her name as Ann Hurd, came TO
that C ty on the Bangor tram, and stopped at
the Dewitt House. Friday morning she paid
her bill, and said she would send for her
trunk. That evening she returned and asked
for the same room, and Saturday morning LETT
in the same way. She returned Saturday
evening, and asked if she could have the same
room, which was given her. About ten o'clock
she was taken sick, and in an hour was delv-
cred OF a child. Her appearance mad not ex-
cited any suspicion, and the event was a COM
plete surprise to all in the house except her
self She stated that she was in search of en-
ployment and mentioned places where she
had called in her efforts to obtain it. She is a
Nova Scotia girl, but came to Lewiston from
Fort Fairfield. The name of the father she
gives, and states that he is now in Pennsylya-
mia. The Infant lived but an hour and the
birth was probably premature.

At the town meeting in Lowell on the 29th

The Bangor Whig says that Saturday Den
mis- Collins was brought into Court on charge
of making high and aggravated assault upon
the person of a Mrs. Sargent of Brewer, while
the latter was passing over the toll bridge to
her home about 8 o'clock, Thursday evening
As Mr.. Sargent was unable to appear In
Court on account OF injuries received, the case
was continued till Thursday next, and Collins
was held in $1,000 bail for his appearance.

previous, but was missing in the morning.
Upon search, her body was found at the wa

70 years OF age. Cause, temporary insanity.
The Bangor Whig says the ice in the river
is being rapidly worn away, and on Saturday
it had gone out as far up as Hampden, so that
the Cambridge will probably come up and
leave from there on Tuesday. We learn that
up river above Oldtown the ice is fast break
