The night dragged YEARLY along, but on

the men were taken on board In an extreme

were kindly cared for BY the officers, and

Referring to the discreditable action of
the House Of Representatives on the bill
repealing the .'back-payr legislation of the
last Congress, which was supported by more
than three fourths OF the democrats and
minority Ct republicans, the Boston Post
says
las for the democrats, they are swept
away by the power of the prevalent mer
cenary influence. They have no footing
In the House. The action Of their caucus
meant surrender to the plunderers Of The
treasury. So it was interpreted by the
democratic press, and so they will be final
~ judged and consigned to oblivion. They
have basely betrayed the trust reposed in
them by great party, just as the people
are reinyesting Il with power. and there are
40 political 2nsthemas too severe for their
desert. Their fate, like that of the major
ity Of the republicans, will he = warning
for many years.
This is the right talk. No matter what
harry the men belong to who are guilty OF
such shu2ling as we have witnessed in Con-
gress the past fortnight. let them be Ostra-
cized. And let those who have stood up
squarely for the right, be heartily support
ed. No matter though large majority Of
democrats followed Rutler, and . majority
Of republicans reinforced them: neither
party As such 10 responsible for this act.
But the men themselves should be held to
o stern responsibility. Here In Maine, We
have the satisfaction Of knowing that our
representatives have all been true TO their
constituents.

Through the courtesy of John W. Swa-
zey. Esq. Of Bucksport, we were permit

hundred and iifty-five years old. The cap

The Salary Measure.
The new Salary law offered by Mr.
Hur,but. Is IS follows

Huribut, Is IS follows:-
That from and amer the passage of this act the
compensation Of Senators, Representative, ara
mum payable monthly, and in addition thereto the
actual individual expenses Of each Senator, Rep
resentstive and Delegate in going to and retarn-
ing from the seat of Government once in each ses-
sion To be certified in writing by each.
Sec 3 That the compensation Of the Speaker OF
the House of Representatives shall be at the raH
oi q go addition to his pay as Repre- sentative
amounting in all to - go: and that OF tue zee
President shall be the same amount, win the
same allow ance for travelling expenses as hereih-
sec. 3. THAT all laws and parts of laws incon-
sistent with the provisions OF This act are hereby
Sec l. That the Secretary of the Treasury Is re,
CURED TO cover into the Treasury All sums tna'
NAV remain undra avn. which have been receiN-
ed as increased compensation. under the prosis,
ons OF said act approved March j. le's, anu
which shall have or may come into MS Posse''o"
by the return thereof.
The above is the bill which passed the
House last Wednesday and is the product
of nine days elaboration of the assembled
wisdom of the nation.
The repeal of the obnoxious Salary Law
passed at the last session and which the
people have everywhere demanded, has
been evaded in the most shutting. time
serving and tortuous manner. The eoun
try is no better satisfied to-day than be-
fore. Not because of the $500 increase
which Representatives persist in retaining
but from the unwillingness they have
shown to comply with the wishes oil Inc
people. and the pitiful shifts and lodges
they have devised 10 shlrk the responsibility
of their acts. Like starving ours they grip
their stolen bones, and snap and snarl IL
even a finger is pointed at them.
Never in the history of the country, has
n measure been more universally denounced
snd never have denunciations been less
needed.
IT. may be that the people will rest con-
tent, but We think and trust that this Is
not the end. Let another bill as proposed
be offered, meeting the wishes of the conn-
try. and then, if possible. have a square
vote that these misrepresentation OF the
people may be brought 10 book. so that
the people may read each mans record.
The record of The Representatives OF
Maine is fair one. Every member,
Burleigh, Frye, Blaine, Hale, has manfully
done his duty. The Press irrespective OF
party, mentions threir names with high
praise, and none more SO than the Repre-
sentatiyes from the 9Th, District, who
throughout this contest has boldly and
calamity defended the rights aud interests
of his constituents. IL may be that he has
lost some prestige in Congress. but he has
gained more than ever before among those
whom he represents for his manly and out
spoken words against Implicitly and
cupidity.
