THE Caucus.
Yts Use and its Limitations.

The New York Tribune attempts to
criticise the position taken by Speaker
Blaine in his letter and by the Portland
Press in its accompanying editorial-that
the question of the Senatorship now pend
inc in this State. should be settled inside OF
the Republican party in "a full, free, sair
and open caucus"
The caucus is simply necessity, not
only in political organizations, but in all
other associations where division of sentl-
ment arises and where those thinking
alike wish to consolidate their strength
and make it effective. Every President
of the United States. since General WASH
ingtop. has been put forward by caucus
nomination-the caucus originally De-
ing composed of the members OF Con
press--but since 1924, for full hall cen
turv. each successive President has been
nominated by National Convention which
is simply q caucus on large scale. In
deed a National Convention is caucus
horn of an indefinite series of caucuses-
each delegate being chosen by the caucus
of State Conyenton-th State Conven-
ton itself being composed OF members
chosen by primary caucuses. MI
Greeley was the nominee of two such Ma
tional Conventions, and was actually put
forward by the largest series OF caucuses
that ever aided in presenting candidate
to the American people. The Tribune
never yet supported Presidential candl'
date from Clay to Greeley, or Guberna-
torial nominee from Seward to Tilden
that was not put forward by convention
that was the outgrowth of numberless
caucuses. Nor, since the Tribune was in
existence, has any United States Senator
been chosen in New York without being
first put forward by the Legislative caucus
of the dominant party. If the Tribune
ever protested against the practice 1t has
escaped our observation.
The limitation of the caucus is where
the end is carried by unfair and corrupt
means, or where the nominee is corrupt
and unfit man. In such a case, if we cor
rectly understand the position of the
Press and the Speaker alike, they would
Justify boiling, as we assuredly would, not
only justify, but advise it. But very hap
PLY in the case under consideration,
these circumstances do not enter
even by hint or suspicion. No one
asserts Or even imagines that the Re
publican members of the Legislature
will do anything else than act from pure
motives and the whole list of gentlemen
presented IS candidates for the Senate
does not contain name to which the re-
hottest suggestion of dishonor attaches.
How then among political friends, we re-
spectfully ask the New York Tribune,
where there are several candidates OF high
character and fitness, are you going to
devise any better or more honorable
mode of deciding who shall be taken than
by leaving the question to the old-fashioned
"free, fair and open caucusP" Differ as
the Republicans of Maine may as to can
didates. they do not differ as to the mode
of settling their differences!

him on this side of the Atlantic before he appeared

ment that he would lecture called out an unusually
large and critical audience. The result was a COM
plete success and the permanent establishment OF
his reputation for eloquence, in this country.
Since his first appearance his time has been fully
occupied He has spoken to great number OF
large and cultivated audiences. The highest en-.
comiams have been pronounced on his style OF
composition and graceful manner of delivery, in
both of which he is said closely to resemble George
William Curtis. His lecture in Augusta will be the
