Death of Hon. E. K. Smart.

Hon. Ephriam X. Smart, for many
years prominent as Democratic poll
tician of this state died at his residence
in Camden on Sunday night last, of soften
ing of the brain, at the age of fitty-nine.
Mr.. Smart was born in that part Of the
old town of Prospect which is now incor-
porated into Searsport. He struggled
against many early disadvantages, edu-
Gated himself, and studied the profess
sion of law. The practice OF his profess
sion was always secondary with him to
the more active and engrossing pursuits
OF politics, and for forty years he was a
leading spirit in the Democratic councils.
While his views of policy were less broad
and comprehensive than the standard that
had been erected by some of the founders
Of the party, and while he som etimes
subordinated strength OF position to the
demand for immediate success, Mr.. Smart
was nevertheless an untiring laborer in
the cause that he had espoused, and true
as steel to his friends and the friends of
the party. He had rare faculty of at
taching to himself those with whom he
came in contact, especially the humble,
of making them aware that he understood
their wants, cares and desires, and in this
lay the secret of the popularity which he
for a long time enjoyed.
Mr.. Smart was honored with many
public positions. He was for several
years member of the State Legislature,
was two terms in Congress, and for four
years Collector of this port. In 1860 he
was democratic candidate for Governor
against Israel Washburn, Jr. He was
not only vigorous dehater, but he WELD
ed ready and forcible pen, and was sue
cessively editor of the Free Press, Bond
Taxer, and Biddeford Democrat.
Mr.. Smart had his faults-what man has
not? Them let oblivion cover. Who
shall say that they may not be traced to
the insiduous disease that at last elouded
his vigorous mind But the many friends
that his active life had known, and the
great party whose approved standard
bearer he was, will pay the last tribute of
respect to his memory
The Republican journal., 1872-10-03
The Coming Elections.

Next Tuesday take place state elections
in Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana and Ne
braska. The great interest of the cam
paign centres in that of the old Key
stone state. If that goes against Grant,
his fate is sealed beyond all chance of re-
covery. 1t is conceded that the liberals
and democrats are daily making converts
The unpopularity OF Hartranft, the radical
candidate for Governor, his connection
with stealing rings, and bad associates
generally, make him the deadest of dead
weights. The ringing letter of Curtin
is attracting to the liberal side thousands
of his old friends, and is terrible blow
to the radicals. Perhaps the best view
of the matter we can present is an extract
from a letter to the New York Herald,
written on the Goth, from Western Penn
sylvania. 1t says:
The strength of the rival candidates up to ten
days ago was pretty evenly divided. At present
it is decidedly in favor of the liberal ticket so
far as State politics are concerned. With re-
gard to national politics there is not so much
certainty. The liberals have no doubt of Buck
alew's election-this the republicans concede.
Should Buckalew be elected, the moral effect is
to bring about complete revolution in favor
of Mr.. Greeley. 1t cannot be denied that at
present Grant is ahead, and unless something
of great weight occurs in favor of the liberals
he will keep ahead. The sentiment of Western
PENNSYLVANIA is radical, and will not be changed
without some great and moving cause. Curtn's
letter has not been without its legitimate effect
in the oil regions. The people read and re-read
it, and say, "If Curtin changes he does it for
the best good OF the State" Men like Curtin
bearing within his breast the love he has ever
manifested for his native State, cannot make a
move in politics without causing revolution,
and while there may be few overwise people
who assign it to mercenary motives, all will. in
time, adopt his views.
In Indiana, which is close state, with
Mr.. Hendricks as candidate for Governor,
cur friends are working vigorously, with
almost the certainty Of success. In Ohio,
there is an improved look Mr.. Greeley
has publicly stated his belief that both
these states will go for the liberal ticket by
handsome major tiles.

A Patriot and a Patriots Defender.

The case of illegal voting in Union, to
which we last week referred, has been be-
fore the Court in Knox County. The man
referred to, Nathaniel A. Robbins, was in
dicted for the otfense, and tried before
Chief Justice Appleton. 1t appears that
the respondent is clerk in the Treasury
Department at Washington, that he has
family and house in Washington, and has
voted there. The jury disagreed, giving
him the benefit of q very small doubt
whether he knowingly voted illeg ally, as
charged in the Indictment. We learn that
County Attorney Rice will try the case
again at the next term of the Court.
The Rockland Free Press, with much
larger measure of zeal than discretion,
PUSHES to the defence of the alleged Grim
inal, and puts the case in this fiorid style
Union need not be ashamed of him as Il citi-
zen. He does her no dscredit. But it is a shame
that contemplate, malicious cOpperhead who
was sympathlZing with rebels while Mr.. Rob
bins was fighting them, who was comfortable
in all the privileges of peaceful home while
hardshps of soldier, should have had the
shameless impotence to complain of this act of
voting, even though some doubt of its legality
might exist.
The argument of the Free Press, shorn
of the remarkable rhetoric in which it is
clothed, is this: Does the fact that this
man served in the army and was made
prisoner, give him immunity from pun
ishment when he has profaned the purity
of the ballot box? If so. why not excuse
him from punishment for any and all
other indictable offenses? Ii the man
who went to war shall steal from those
who didn't go their right to fair vote,
why may he not steal their coats, or
pocket-books, or horses, and be free from
punishment All these acts are crimes
against society and against individuals,
none of which one who endured the
hardships of soldier has the right to
commit He who is found guilty Of either
of them is much more likely to have en-
listed for plumber than patriotism
"A lew years ago young man VINO
had endured the hardships of soldier
killed, while his victim slept, feeble old
man in Penobscot county, and robbed his
house. 1t was an act of which in the
language of our contemporary some doubt
of its legality might exist"-but our
neighbor can find this young man over at
Thomaston, under sentence of death
Perhaps some contemplate, malicious
copperhead" may have complained of this
little rregularity Of a proven patriot, and
thus become obnoxious to guardians Of
public morals, like the Free Press
The Republican journal., 1872-10-03

BUCKsPORT AND BANGOR RAILROAD.
A correspondent writes that the town of
Bucksport voted on Monday to take $40
600 additional stock in the railroad from
that town to Bangor, making S135,OO0 OF
corporate subscription in all. This is in
addition to $4,000 in private subscrip-
ton, which is to be at once increased.
Mr.. Fred Spofford has rendered the use of
his shore front to the road, and engineers
are at work surveying a new and much
less costly route out of the town. Our
correspondent says it is contemplated to
move at once in the construction of the
