The VorE OF MAINE.--The following fig
ures relating to the vote in this State in years
past will be interesting in view of the ap.
preaching State election:1 The average vote
of Maine since 1854-the date of organization
of the Republican Party-is 1O7,015. The av.
erage Republican vote (not counting scatter.
ing) is &C, O1O; average Democratic, (including
the old Wing votes of 1854, 1856, 1856 and
1867 46,SS7; average Republican majority
1923. :
The vote was last year 131 1872, the largest

WE are pleased to learn that the Republic
cans Of New Gloucester, have unanimously
renominated Andrew G. Chandler Esq, as q
candidate for Representative to the Legislature.
Mr.. Chandler is gentleman Of ability and in,
fuence, which added to the experienc of last
year. will make him valuable legislator. :
With so unexceptional candidate, the Re-
publicans of New Gloucester ought to enter
upon the canvass with zeal and roll up large
majority. We are in receipt of communities
ton from that town giving full account O
the caucus, but the crowded state of our col
UNITS renders it impossible for us to publish it
1t seems that Mr.. Chandler was catechised by
gentleman in attendance, upon several
points of political faith and practice relevnn,
and irrelevant, all of which were answered te
the complete satisfaction Of the caucus which
was harmonious and pleasant q,

The Maine Election ind she PiGeenth
Amendment
Not long ago it was generally conceded
that the 18th amendment would be ratified
without further trouble, since it was supposed
shat the Democrats had at last become con-
WINGED of the futiity of further opposition.
But the recent Democratic success in Ten
nessee and that reported in California have
already put new courage into the hearts of
the cbstructionists. Although; the last New
York legislature duly ratified the amend
ment the Democrats of that State are dispos-
ed to contest the validity of the ratification
on the strange ground that the amendment
was not an issue when the Legislature was
elected. In States that have not yet acted
in the matter, Democrats are almost uniform
ly opposed to it, and if it is ever carried it
will only be after severe struggle.
The state of the case is just this: There
are thirty-seven States and the ratification
of twenty eight States, or three-fourths of the
whole, is necessary to make the amendment
part of the constitution. Only nineteen
have SO far ratified it. Virginia, Mississippi
and Texas will undoubtedly do so, since it is
a condition precedent to their admission to
the Union, making twenty-five in all, and
leaving only six more whose ratification is
required. These six must be taken from the
following list: Alabama, California, Della
ware, Georgia, Iowa, Kentucky, Maryland,
Minnesota, New Jersey, Nebraska, Ohio,
Oregon, Rhode Island, Tennessee and Yer
mont. Four or five of the above may be
counted upon with considerable confidence
to ratify the amendment, but Ohio will GER
tainly be wanted to complete the number.
1t is Of the utmost Importance that in the
election, which occurs just after our own, a
Legislature should be chosen that will act
favorably in this regard. " -'
The Republicans of Maine need not be re-
minded of the almost superstitious feeling
that exists in respect to the election hereof
the manner in which it is supposed to prog
nosticate defeat or victory in other States
of the moral support that a Republican vic
tory here has often given to our struggling
brethren elsewhere. The October elections
follow the course marked out by the Septem-
Der election in Maine'with constancy that
is marvellous. If the sequence is merely ac-
cidental and mas nothing to do with cause
and effect, let us not this year give our Ohio
associates occasion even to fancy that they
have reason for Encouragement. The whole
matter of impartial suffrage, as an element of
national policy, may turn upon the election
in that State. If the progress of democratic
ideas is to receive temporary check let not
the Republicans of Maine be even in the
most remote degree responsible. Let not all
that we have accomplished in the past be lost
but any oversight or want Of patriotism

COLLISION OF LocoMoT1yEs.-The engine
Androscoggin, which went from Lewiston to
Waterville on special mission, started to re-
turn about O'Clock Saturday evening. Rice's
bridge was discovered to be in flames, and, re-
versing the engine, the fireman and engineer
left the locomotive to assist in subduing
the fire. When the engineer next thought OF
his engine it was out of sight, flying riderless
toward Waterville. The grade is downward
nearly all the way between West Waterville
and Waterville, and hence the engine, left
without the brakes being applied to retain it,
had started to find the bottom of the hill.
Providentially it met no train in its course,
else the consequences must have been deplora-
BILE. Arriving at the station the runaway
passed on to the side track, where freight
train had just taken its position, colliding with
the locomotive Katahdin with force sufficient
to lift the tender Of the Androscoggin from its
trucks. Both engines will soon be repaired.

MECHANIC FALLs.-This thriving and beau
tiful village, which has been built up since the
construction of the Atlantic and ST. Lawrence
railroad, is about thirty seven miles from
Portland. and is composed of portions OF the
towns of Minot and Poland, the bridge across
the Audroscoggin dividing the towns. The
water power is excellent, and was purchased
bv Messrs. A. G. Denison s. Co., who have es-
tablished four mills upon it, three of which
are devoted to the manufacture of paper, from
news to the finest tinted book paper all of
which finds a ready market.
The fourth mill is devoted to the manufac-
ture of gentlemen's paper bosoms and ladies'
collars. This establishment the Messrs Deni-
sons have recently disposed of to Messrs. E. p.
Furlong s. Co. Mr.. f. has had large expert
ence in the business, and has introduced some
new and valuable machinery of his own in
vention, which expedites the business and
turns out beautiful articles. The paper of which
they are made is manufactured by Messrs.
Denisons, and is afterwards prepared for its
purpose by Mr.. Furlong, who turns out as
handsome styles of goods as can. be found any
where. These goods are having large sales,
and find customers all over the Union. One
day last week an order for sixty thousand
bosoms came from Chicago, and other orders
came from different parts of the country. 1t
is worth visit to the place to see the celebrity
and neatness with which these articles are
manufactured. Messrs. Shepard & Co. of this
city are the agents here for the sale of these
articles

There are 100000 of drunkards in our land.
Counting their wives and children and parents

of drunkenness. One drunkard in a family
is enough to make the whole family miserable.
