the building of railroads or manufactures
by towns and cities, and sighs for the an
cient times when corporations were I'M
known, railroad whistles unheard, and
laborers received only ten cents day for
work. With such ideas the republicans of
Maine have little sympathy, having
learned to their cost that it is poor policy
for State like ours to be guided by.
Imperialism and Capitalization are to
be guarded against according to Mr.. Tit
comb. We can endure anything but these
he thinks. This was the staple of demo-
cratic platforms, newspapers and speakers
during the rebellion. 1t was used to Grip
pie the government and aid the rebels
Every step that Mr.. Lincoln took in adj
vance for the vigorous persecution of the
war was met by this same cutlery about
the danger of imperialism and civilization.
/ Since the Bourbons have obtained the as
tendency in the democratic organization
it is very natural that the sentiments of
those who who opposed the war should
re-appear. But the most of people have
concluded that Mr.. Lincoln conducted the
war about right, and that Capitalization
such rs we have is far better than seces-
sion triumphant and carried into practical
effect would have been. We believe that
it is better to have Grant President over
the whole Union, than over half of it

knowledge him President ofthe Confeder-

issued in such quantities and times as
suited itself. regardless OF the general
good. The troubles and losses of the old
banking system, enlarged by the increase
OF States and the greater volume of cur
reney now required in the transaction of
business. is what Mr. Titcomb would have
in place of our present safe system. To
mention it is to condemn it in the public
estimation. He may demand it long
time we believe before the people will be
willing to return to the old plan.
These are some OF the ideas that the
democratic candidate for Governor holds.
1t is we'll to examine them. They are
simply the principles of that democracy
which has often been condemned by the
popular vote. and now appears for con-
domination again.

TIE SINE OLD PARTY

The Albany Evening Journal does not spare
the lash in speaking of the insults the dem
ocratic organization offers the country in ap-
pearing under the Bourbon form.
And now this party, burdened with heavier
load of obloquy than ever before rested upon
any political organization, comes forward and
avows and defends all its iniquities. 1t ex-
claims in substance: ave repudiate all eff
forts TO turn the Democracy into new paths :;
we reject all new departures; we are still
the old Democratic party-the same that sus-
tanned slavery, the same that opposed the
war, the same that resisted all the safeguards
of the restored Union, and we make it our
boast that We are the same party, with the
same principles and the same spirit" This
is what the Democracy now proclaim in their
Ohio action and general expression, and this
is what we say is an insult to the popular
judgement. 1t ilaunts past dsloyalty and
present obstructiyeness in the very face of the
people. II tells them in almost so many
words that, though stained with the most
fagitious OF all political offenses, it dares
still to thrust itself before them in its naked
deformity, and 70 presume upon their favor.
The man who has been branded for crime
usually tries TO conceal Himself behind some
alias, and certainly abstains from crying his
iniquties aloud. But the Democratic organ
ization, as if SO stepped in political dissolute
ness as to be lost to all sense of shame, has
the hardwood to declare its wrongs against
the nation, and the audacity to make its un-
changed character the ground for asking pop
ular support.
1t is said we are reviving dead issues.
The statement is not true. 1t is the De-
mocracy and not we who are reyiying them
When they proclaim themselves the same
old lay nta oil
record. When they declare that they have
not changed they tell us that their future
must be judged by their past. 1t is is they
not we, who provoke the discussion of war
questions. Nothing short OF madness itself,
or such desperate straits as permitted no
other alternative, could eyer have led a party
into so arrant piece of etfrontery and SO
gross blunder.
The unpatriotic Democracy have been
scourged and blistered for dozen years, and
when, after that experience, they present
the mselyes in the same unchanged character.
they must continue to receive the same I'M
diminished stripes.

RAILROAD MATTERS.

The new Marblehead branch of the East
ern Railroad will be opened in about two
weeks.
There are 100 miles of railroads in Massa-
ehusetts, and $50 miles more in process of
construction.
BY an abandonment of an Indian reserva-
ton, the Northern Pacific Railroad Company
claims that it is entitled to 5000, 900 acres Of
land in addition to that now possessed.
The Grand Trunk Railway is to connect
with the Lewiston and Auburn Railroad on
the cast and the Boston and Maine Railroad
on the west, forming through line between
Lewiston and Boston. The Lewiston and
Auburn Railroad will probably be in running
order by the first of November, and is to be
laid with steel rails.
