Why Maine Republicans Should Do Their
Best.

The present state of intense political excite
Violent enmities, the alienation of friends, the
neglect of business, partial suspension of in
dustry, lavish expenditure of money, the
most of it undoubtedly for purposes that are
strictly legitimate, and dangerous tension OF
the nerves growing out of the overwhelming
interest felt in the result are among the most
obvious results of the canvass This state OF
affairs must continue and with an ever in
creasing degree of excitement. if Maine should
give small Republican majority next Mon
day. But with large majority-such ma
jority as we begin to think poss ble-one
showing that the Republicans of New Eng
land are going on with unbroken ranks to
finish and make secure the work they begun
in 1861, an immediate and final subsistence
in the excitement would be highly probable.
Grant would be elected by the vote of Maine.
The case would go against Greeley by default.
The zebra would be as dead as the dodo.
More likely than not the Democratic party
and Horace Greeley, both relieved from the
temptation that has assailed them in the
shape of probability of obtaining power
would return to principle once more, the
former with candidates of its own, O'Conor
and Adams, and the latter leading back his
disciples to the support of Gen. Grant From
now till the 9Th of November there will only
remain the formality of conducting canvass.
In Maine there would be no need of another
political meeting or the slightest effort to get
out voters for the Presidential election, Let

had so long been wont to accept his counsels
as law, giving point to their condemnation
of his course, by hearty endorsement of his
colleague.
Very little doubt is expressed now among
well informed men in political circles that
New York will give her IS electoral votes to
Gen. Grant. The more sanguine claim 100,-
600 majority for the Republicans.
If Maine gives a large majority for Per-
ham and returns complete Republican dele
CATION to the next Congress, the cause will
gather such momentum that the October
elections in Pennsylvania, Indiana, Ohio and
Iowa will all go the same way, and settle the
question as decisively as if the votes had al
ready been cast and canvassed. So that prac-
tcally your State is fighting the battle of the
Union. That is why all eyes are turned
thither and why the name Of Maine is on
every tongue. The Greeley organs have
Dragged so loudly of their strength there
have predicted with such confidence that they
would either reduce TO low figure or alto

that if you disappoint them by rousing vote
for your State ticket. they will be plunged in
despair. The latest utterances of Mr. Gree
leys paper denote that things do not look

is plaintive and its wall expressive of an
guish. Its temper so far gets the better OF
it. good sense that it broadly intimates that
the Republicans are buying votes. Now no
body knows better than Mr.. Greeley that
there is no State in this Union in which mon

influence votes than Maine. II il an insult

deserts his party, joins hands with the dead

RefOrmer Ashley.

The notorious Jim. Ashley as our Dem
ocratic brethren have called him in the past
will appear at the Democratic meeting to-
night as Reformer. A Congressional inves-
tigation showed that this gentlemen was i'm
plicated in series of attempted frauds in
connection with an appointment to the land
Office of one of the territories. He was let
go because he failed to make his game work
and he was removed in consequence of al
legged misdemeanors in Office.
The Argus has frequently paid its compli-
ments to the notorious Jim" and the follow
ing extract may interest our readers
In December, 1869, the argus says:
James F. Ashley, the dishonest incompe-
tent whom Gen. Grant appointed to the
Governorship of Montana territory has been
removed. Ashley's appointment was unfit to
be made; his removal was fit in all respects.
But General Grant had every opportunity to
know the BASE CHARACTER of the fell
lew as well before his appointment as now.
The same month the Argus hits the Re
former again by saying ~. M. Ashley in
Montana has been complete failure"

ter showing its appreciation of Reformer

Yesterday in conversation with one Eli Webb,
who was in the 10 tn Maine Regiment, he de-
clared that Grant was drunkard and he would
not vote for him. I said to him. 81 never saw
man that could say he ever saw Gen. Grant
drunk" He said, 81 saw him so drunk at
Acquia Creek he could not sit on his horse and
he was ordered off the field" Said I, 'what
officer outranked Grant and gave the order"
Webb replied that no one ontranked him, but
Gen. Beal ordered him off to his tent until he
could get over his drunk. l Immediately came
to the city and asked Gen. Beal if such was the
fact. The General at once declared it an abso-
Lutte lie; that Webb was a miserable fellow who
in the 10th Maine, was discharged two years
before Grant was called to the east, and that
he never saw Gen. Grant ON the field. Now
this, Mr.. Editoris fair sample of Democratic
lying. 1t seems to be their whole stock in
trade in this campaign.

The Argus and the Portland Custom
House.

The argus is nothing, if not hostile to
Portland. What interest of this city has it
not opposed? What great enterprise has
there been that has not met its relentless hos
tility? Ask our merchants, mechanics and
laborers what good it ever had to say in their
behalf, and whether it has not always sub
ordnated every material interest of the city
to the lowest, meanest, and bitterest kind of
partnership? Ask the enterprising Demo-
Gratis of the city, the men who are engaged
in building up its prosperity, whether they
have not always found an enemy in the Ar-
gus?
Its latest and most Argus like manifestation
is against the Portland Custom House, in
which it parades figures and statements to
show large relative increase of the present
expenses of the Custom House in this city
over those of 1862.
We charge that this representation is
false, and that the argus knows it to be false,
and that it is willing, in its recklessness, not
only to state what is known by itself to be
untrue, but to state it when to do so belittles
and depreciates the business and trade of the
city in which it is published
We did not 1T first take any notice of the
Argus falsehoods, remembering how year
ago having grossly msrepresented the Custom
House and the Collector it was made to eat
humble pie to save itself from indictment for
a libel. II any one doubts this fact we re-
spectfully refer him to the County Attorney,
and to Nathan Webb and VIM. l.. Putnam,
Enquiries, and to its own columns also, from
which we subjoin the following extract:
"The facts commun icated to us by the Col
lector have also modified our opinion much
in regard to the amount of force required at
this port. The largely increased number of
entries ofmerchandse required since the aD-
rogation OF the reciprocity treaty and the
transit of imported goods in bond by railway
under the sealing system, making necessary
"A larger force than would otherwise be re-
quired by the business of the port We were
informed by him that within ten years. in
consequence of these changes and the gener- |
al increase of customs business, the number
of entries been increased seven fold.
and from this fact, and Others given us, we
are satisfied that the representations made by
the Collector are correct He desired us to |
make the fullest examination of all the books
and records and expressed the wish that any |
gentleman who desired would come into his
office and examine them, including all the
vouchers for materials for the public buildings,
pay rolls for labor, and all other disbursements
made by MIN. In conclusion, our own exam
nation, not less than the frankneSs of Mr..
WashDurn in reference to his affairs, fully
satisfies us that any implication either on his
personal or his official integrity would be I'M
merited and wrong"

argus itself, from its O,cm acords, all we have
said? DO we not prove by the Arous the
falsity of its statements, and that it knows
them to be false?

Facts.

Since the Inauguration of President Grant,
the public debt has been decreased $34S,.
14l, 239.48, which decreases the annual
interest $23,191,365.
When President Grant was inaugurated
Democratic leaders were discussing plans for
the practical reputation of the public debt.
The policy of the Administration in so rapid
ly paying the debt and at the same time re-
ducing the burden of taxation, has complete
ly averted the danger of any form of repudi-
alton.
The securities of the United States have
increased invalue in he foreign markets of
the world from IL to Is per cent. since the
Inauguration of Gen Grant.
