MINE,

To-day Maine elects Governor and 1uli
State ticket and five Representatives to Con-
press. The contest has been sharp and bitter
on the side of the dominant party, and desuiVory
ON the part of the Liberals. Their candidate lor
Governor was already in the held WIN d
Democratic nomination before the party
which now supports him was organizeu' ant
q Democratic Central Committee was areau'
chosen. Money, terrorism, Federal patronage,
and n perfect political organization have Den
among the forces with which our friends nave
contended with their undiscipllned ranks ald
undrilled columns. Under these circumstances,
tho most we can expect from them Is such
reduction of the old Republican majority as
sball be an earnest of the more vigorous work
n be done between now and November Pos
siblv we may gain one COngressman-Nr
Pixies chances in the Vth District being reck-
oned very good One or two OF the otnd
Districts are classed as doubtful by sanguiH
Liberals, but the chances are all against them'
Twenty thousand majority is large figure
TO set to work against; but this is the sum
total which the Maine Liberals have calamity
attemnted to reduce; and they have been in
spired by the consciousness that II they prlng
down Perham's majority to something near
ten thousand, the State may be safely reck-
oned as sure for Greeley and Brown In NO.
yember next. As will be seen by the data re-
lating to the canvass which have been collected
for THE TRIBUNE, and are published herewith,
there is large doubtful element In the con-
test which is. TO be decided to-day. Old poll
ticians say they have never known an election
in which so many voters appeared to be un-
certain which way they should cast their bal
lots. But. conceding all this unenrOlled force
TO the Administration, such a sagacious man
"a Mr.. Chas. p. Kimball, the Liberal candi-
date for Governor, is still confident OF reduc-
ing the Republican majority in the last Presi-
Dental year one-half, which would bring it to
ten thousand. We shall have reason for great
confidence, even with less gains.
The contest has been a purely national one,
local affairs having little or no part in it.
The Administration at Washington has sent
its Cabinet thither and has staked everything
ON the result, which, by common consent, is
agreed to be looked for in the dimensions OF
the Grant majority. as compared with that OF
1868. On the "off years" the total vote, as
we'll "a the majority, was smaller than In the
Presidential year. In 1870 it was little over
eight thousand in q total vote of 09,SO1, and
last year it was about ten thousand in total
vote of 105,S07. Public interest is very gener-
ally conferred on the election in Maine to-day
it has taken on an air of national importance
and we await with confidence the result OF
the keen and animated canvass which has
Just closed. The intelligent people of the Pine
Tree State have had an exhaustive discussion
of the issues involved; now let us hear their
| conclusion.

WILSONAGREELEY.

The Erening Post persists in its assertion
that Henry Wilson and Horace Greeley have
been in substantial accord on the "Know-
Nothing" question-that their difference was
one of degree rather than of kind. The truth
is quite otherwise They differed as follows:
1. Henry Wilson, after applying unsuccess-
fully for admission to the Know-Nothing lodge
in his town (Natick), tried again in Boston,
and gained admission. Mr.. Greeley, on the
other hand, never in his life entered, nor
sought to enter, a Know-Nothing lodge,
council, or conventicle of any kind.
2. Henry Wilson, being himself the Republi-
can candidate for Governor in 1854, himself
voted and induced others to vote for Henry
J. Gardiner, the "Know-Nothing candidate.
Mr.. Greeley, ON the contrary, voted that year
and every year for the Republican as against
the rival American" or "KnowNOthing
candidates
We have no wish to magnify this differ
ence, preferring to fight to-day's battle on to-
days issues 1t is the untruth of The Post
and The Times, rather than the crooked ways
of Henry Wilson, that we now especially con-
denim.

THE SCHOEPPE CASE.
conclusion

We do not propose at present to discuss the
question of Capital Punishment in view of the
extraordinary conclusion of the case of DR..
Schoeppe. But here is man who, according
to the verdict of one jury, should long ago
have been hanged and buried, and who, by
great good luck having secured second trial,
is found to be innocent upon testimony per-
fectly satisfactory to judge, jury, bar and spec
tators. The scientific evidence which upon the
first hearing was thought to be sufficient to
consign the respondent to the gallows, is found
upon the subsequent trial to be simply good
for nothing. The faith of the courts and of
the community in the evidence of experts,
and particularly of professional experts, may
have been heretofore too large; and there is
even some danger that hereafter it may be
altogether too small. Prof. Aiken was the
witness relied upon by the Government at the
first trial. This gentleman has high reputa-
ton as a chemist, and is frequently called upon
to testify in oyers of poisoning. At the time of
the first trial. he had no doubt whatever that Miss
Steinecke was felOniously killed by prussic
acid, the presence of which in the stomach
of the deceased he emphatically asserted.
Miss Steinecke's family, it appears, never for
a moment supposed that she had died other
than natural death, until the examination OF
her will revealed the irritating fact that she
had left her money to DR.. Schoeppe. Then
they were at once convinced that she had been
poisoned and, moreover, that she had been
poisoned by the Doctor. Prof Aiken is called
in to conduct post norton; he was told to
look for poison, and he found what he looked
for. Upon his testimony poor DR.. Schoeppe
is convicted, merely, it appears to us, because
a lady saw fit to make him her legatee; and
it is only by accident that he was not exc
cuted months ago. Now, upon the second
trial, which nothing bat the most unceasing
importantly of his friends secured him, comes
Prof Gentb of the University of Pennsyl-
vania, who swears positively that DR.. Aiken's
testimony proved nothing at all; that
the analysis did not disclose the pres
ence of prussic acid in the stomach,
and that even the reagents employed by
DR.. Aiken would Of themselves create the
poison said TO have been found. The
testimony of Prof. Genth was 80 clear and
positive that the States Attorney did not
venture upon a cross-examination at all. 1t

We regret to see such handle given TO the
enemies of the negro the exhibition of british
inerattude which is in every number of The
National Era. Mr. Frederick Douglass during his
whole career has received the most signal evidences
of friendship and regard from Mr. Greeley. Even
since the beginning of this canvass he has met with
entirely civil and kindly treatment from u.s. Yet IN
few papers in the United States Is MIR. Greeley
bounded with such foul and malignant blackguard-
ism as in the paper of which Mr.. Douglass Is the
editor These attacks are too vulgar to quote and
too flimsy to answer. But no friend of the negro
race can read them without pity for those inherent
vices of nature for which Slavery is alone respon-
sible
