Ex-Governor Washburn md the sena.
rOrship.

Mr.. Washburn having been one of the lead
ing anti-slavery men Of the country for many
years, having been deyo.edly attached to the
Republican party from its inception because
of its efficiency as means OF propagating
progressive ideas and liberal legislation, having
been eminently ,car Republican, never for
moment giving up the national cause and
having in every political address he has made
since the war advocated impartial suffrage,
gong almost beyond the limit of orthodox
Republicanism in his zeal for the establish
ment OF genuine democracy in America, we
are not surprised to see Democratic papers
Directing to his election as Senator from th's
State. The editors of such journals are ho'
DESTROYS of seeing the SPINNER anu MorIoh
vino of the Senate reinforced by so unmlstak-
able Radical as Mr.. Washburu. Of course
thew will oppose him, and will give as wide
circulation as circumstances will permit to
statements supposed to be TO his discredit.
But they should be cautious, after all. There
are some selfneutralzing assertions that die
of their own too much" To say that Mr..
Washburn was in correspondence with Jeffer-
son Davis during the war, or that he has en-
tered into conspiracy with Consul Murray
to effect the annexation of Maine to the Do
minion of Canada, would be to excite gen.
eral incredulity. But the people are no more
incredulous in regard to this than they are
when an attempt is made to cause them to
believe that he ever by word or deed or
thought approved or in any way countenanced
President Johnson's apostacy. For all the
world knows that from the time that it be-
came apparent that the President really me-
ditated treachery, Mr.. Washburn was openly
hostile to him and to his "policy," though the
expression of hostility was likely to cost him
dear.
From all parts of the State we have favora-
BILE intelligence in regard to Mr.. Washburn's
candidacy. So far as this part of Maine is
concerned there can Of course be but one opin
ion. Those who remember how much has
been effected for the constituency of Mr. Fes-
sender and Mr.. Lynch by reason of the per.
sonal knowledge possessed by those gentlemen
of the business and commercial wants of the
people they represented cannot hesitate 10
support Mr.. Washburn who has had peculiar
facilities for acquiring the same kind of in
formation. 1t is impossible to state how many
thousand dollars difference it would have
made to rhe people Of this part of the State il
they had been represented by less able and
less influential men. Mr.. Washburn is de-
sirable representative OF the State because hi
thoroughly understands the interests of all it.
people. His birth in the Western part O
Maine, his long residence in the Eastern part
and the practical acquaintance with mercan
tile affairs he has acquired while performing
the important duties of his Office in this city
make him emphatically a representative Of
the whole State.

Political Notes.

HE Lewiston journal comes out stronger
and stronger for woman suffrage.
In addition to the gentlemen hitherto
mentioned as Candidates for Congress- from the
second Maine district are j. P. Morse of Bath,
i. }. Southland of Richmond, and Warren
johnson OF Topsham. Hon. VIM. p. FRYE of
Lewiston seems to have the lead at present.
We understand that Hon. Nelson Dingley.
Jr., editor of the Lewiston Journal. an
nounces 10 his friends that he shall absolutely
decline to be candidate. The name of Mr..
johnson will probably be presented by his
friends.
The Calais Adoertiser pays good deal of
attention to politics since Mr.. Pike took
charge of it. In the last number we find a
paragraph in which he doubts the statement
made by the Kennebec Journal to the effect
that Senator Morrill, and Speaker Blaine ale
warm personal friends. He says:
There are hundreds in the State with as
good opportunity of knowing the sentiments
OF Senator Morrill, as the editor OF the Jour
nal, and perhaps better, who will read, with
surprise, the statement of "warmest personal
friendship and confidence. "We feel author
idea from intimate intercourse with the Sent
ator since the election of Mr.. HanlAin, last
year. And it is within bounds to say, tina
three-quarters OF the supporters of Mr.. Nor
rill in the Hamlin-Morrill contest, have the
impression of which the american speaks.
A CORRESPONDENT of the Lewiston Jour-
nal says that Senator Cleaves is sure to be re-
turned from that county to the State Legisla-
ture.
SPEAKER Blaine is not going to make
visit to Maine as is currently reported. y
THE Riverside Echo complains that there
is hardly possibility of getting an honest
ballot in political convention. 1t declares
that the rules adopted by the last Republican
State Convention as safeguards against fraud,
were LETT to enforce themselves, and that there
was nothing to prevent any delegate from
voting an indefinite number of times or the
roughs of Bangor from taking possession of
the ballot-box. 1t suggests as a remedy that
the vote for Governor be taken by Counties,
each delegation conducting the ballot within
its own ranks under the supervision of a com
mittee selected by ITSELF
JOHN RUSSELL YoUNG's paper the Stand
ard, says: Sin the event of Mr.. Morrissevs
resignation the Democrats of the Fourth Con-
gresslonal District could not do better than to
nominate the Hon. M. M. Pomeroy He would

many of the Democratic members do. New

JOHN w. FoRNEY, Hon. Galusha A. Grow,
General Harvey White and General Horace

A MAINE correspondent of a Boston paper
says that the rumselers of Maine, and their
sympathisers, finding the liquor traffic inter-
fered with so much as 10 spoil their business"
have determined to make vigorous political
campaign to secure a governor and legislature
which will favor the repeal of those provi-
sions of the present Maine law which make it
so effective.

Boiling Down.

Mr.. EDIToR:-I approve of the very COM
mon and proper practice OF "boiling down" the
scribblings of itemizers, but the paragraph in
relation to the doctor who "pOured the NOR
phine into his hand and fell asleep" when he
had the collie, is ''done" trifle too much, as
copied into the Lewiston Journal of the I'd
inst. To prevent all possible danger of injuri-
GUS interences, allow me to say that the simple
does not account for the doctors going to
sleep. To be e1plicit, he ate it, but, as it was
dark, at the time, he did not know how much
there was of it. Furthermore, the doctor is
one of the best physicians in Somerset and
perfectly temperate.
