The Maine Election.

The election in Maine, from returns al
ready received at this writing, shows an
encouraging republican gain over former
years and an undoubted rout of the democ-
racy throughout the state. Returns from
100 towns show republican majority for
Dingey, republican candidate for COVER
nor,.of 7,10S. Last year the same towns
gave republican majority of 6,3G5, show
ing republican gain of 1888. If the towns
to be heard from gain IN the same propor-
ton, last years majority of $3.50 will be
increased to 10 500 in an aggregate vote of
10000, against SC, 94S last year.
In the first district Burleigh, republican,
runs ahead of his ticket. His majority in
1872 was 1890, the governors majority
being 1851. The second district has not
been heard from. The majority in 1872
was 4,105. In the third district Blame is
ahead of his ticket His majority in 1872
was 1868. The fourth district has not
been heard from. Hersey had 5,10S ma
jorlty in 1872. In the fifth district Hale
had probably 5000 majority. His majority
in 1879 was 1898. In Cumberland county
the republicans lose one senator. The
democrats will probably gain some repre-
sentatives.
The legislature is Overwhelmingly repub.
lican. In the senate 80 of the 81 members
elected are republicans, that branch stand
ing the same politically as 1t did last year.
The house, which last year stood 1903 re-
publicans, Al democrats and 7 independ-
ents, will this year stand about the same.
So far as heard from the republicans have
lost one representative in Oldtown, three
in Portland and one in Biddeiord. On the
other hand, they have gained in Bangor
in Winthrop and in China. The legis-
lative ticket attracted probably more inter
est than any issue involved, for the reason
that the legislature elected will be called
upon to choose United States senator for
SIX years from the 4th of March next,
senator Hamlin's term expiring on that
day. The result indicates that Mr.
Hamlln will most assuredly be his own
successor, and will be the choice of more
than three-quarters of the members of the
legislature.

FROM NEW ORLEANS.

If our information from Louisiana Is cor
rect, and there seems to be no doubt in re-
ference thereto, we do not see how the
general government can hesitate to inter-
fere with the full force at its command. 1t
must be remembered, in reading all these
telegraphic reports from the south, that
they are made as favorable as possible for
that which they call "wnte mans gov
eminent" But even with all these arts
and devices at their command, with their
sympathes naturally with the south and
regarding everyone as intruders who was
not an old time resident, they make the
case bad enough. A mass meeting, utterly
without authority, called together by some
committee or some "white mans league"
appoints another committee aud directs
them to call on the governor of the state
and demand of him that he shall ''abdicate"
and leave the state. Was ever such q
cord heard of before in free, democratic,
constitutional government? Kings and
emperors may "abdicatc," but governors
uNNNi' Ht NplN IsIil IL lOItlDn ~ our
system of government and partakcs
only of monarchy It's use seems
to characterize the nature of the
whole movement. Its origin was secrecy
as are all schemes of monarchies. When
everything is perfected, when they are pre-
pared TO strike fatal blow, then, in order
to give i, the color of a movement of the
people, a mass meeting is called Wien,
however, the demand is made on the gov
ernor to "abdcate, armed bands of this
'whiie mans league are patrolling the
streets. and an "aclias governor and COM
mander-in chief Of the militia" has his
orders already ~ pared to issue, whether
the "abdcation' takes place or not The
regularly recognized governor did well not
to comply with the demands of this
league tins mo- this armed force, this
revolutionary government, or whatever
else you may he pleased to call 1t. The
question is not now one OF illegal votes or
OF who was legally and daily elected gov
ernor. 1t is n revolution, or, at least, an
organized resistance TO the regularly con.
stltuted authorities. When proper de-
mand is made for the aid of the general
government, we do not see how the pres-
dent can decline to furnish the army of the
United States, or so much thereof as may
be necessary, to aid Governor Kellogg and
restore order in Louisiana These white
mems leagues" must be put down at any
cost. We hope that there will be prompt,
decisive action, and New Orleans be made
to feel the power of the United States in
such way that she will keep quiet here
after.

Death of Judge II. Ig. Curtis.

The telegraph last evening brought the
sad news of the deccase of Hon. BENJAMIN
Ro'h;~s O"..,D, LII. ID. newport, Ii. H.,
yesterday afternoon.
Judge Curtis was born at WATERFOWL,
Mass, Nov 4, 1909, and was therefore in
the Goth year of his age. He graduated at
Harvard in 1929, was admitted to the bar
in 1882, and commenced the practice of
law at Mortified, Mass. In 1884 he re-
moved to Boston, where he at once took
high rank IN the legal profession. He con-
tinued in the successful practice of the law
in that city until in September, 1851, he
was appointed to the bench of the supreme
court of the United States In the autumn
of 1857 he resigned the position and has
since practiced his profession in Boston.
During his career Judge Cults served
two years in the Massachusetts house of
representatives and filled other places of
high trust and responsibility with credit to
himself and his native commonwealth. In
March, 1868, he was one of the counsel for
President johnson before the court of i'm
parchment. AS an author he has achieved
considerable success, publishing Reports
OF United States Circuit Court" in two vol
umes, in 1857; Decisions of the United
States Supreme Court in twenty-five vol
umcs, also "digest" of the same to 1854
He has acted with the democratic party.
and was their candidate for the United
States senate, TO fill the vacancy OCCASION
ed by the death of Charles Sumner, receiv
ing the full vote of his party during that
long contest.

second Congressional District.

II is now conceded that Hon. ID. c. Dem
ison will be elected on the third day of
November as Judge Poland's successor in
Congress by the voters in Caledonia,
Orange and Windsor counties. His friends
claim that by the result given on the last
election day he is in nomination, and if the
district committee call another meeting of
the delegates to make nomination in
place of Judge Poland, declined, Deni-
son will run. Windham county claims
the right to furnish the coming man, mas
much as Windsor county furnished Cola
mer and Tracy; Orange, Morrill,; and Cal
edonia, Poland. Windham county pre-
sents for the consideration of the voters of
the district Hon. Geo. Howe, j. d. Bridg-
man, and would be glad to name Judge
Wheeler, but 1t is understood he wishes to
be left cut OF the political cauldron.

Senator EIOrriIl's Address.

1t is very interesting to know, says the
Springfield Republican,, that Senator Nor
rlll of Vermont, the man who overthrow
the last reciprocity treaty, told the Vermont
farmers, at their fair, the other day, that
new treaty would be thoroughly milk and
water craftsmanship. He warned his
hearers of the Canadian wool, and secuted
the idea that we should have to pay Cana
da large sum for the fisheries, it the
treaty was not negotiated. One of his
points against the treaty we have not seen
brought up before, and that is that most of
our foreign treaties guarantee to the re-
spective powers privileges equal to those of
the most favored nation. Under the clauses
nearly the whole world, says Mr.. Morrill,.
will claim the same concessions which we
make to Canada. The senator's address
further dealt with agriculture as dependent
on education and generous public schools,
and recommended, among other things,
that gold metal be awarded annually to
the cultivator of the best farm in the state.

The friends of Mrs. l.. S. Haven and
wife consisting of brothers and sisters,
nephews and nieces and other invited
guests numbering seventy met at their
house, Aug. Goth, for picnic. The
tables being in readiness, were soon loaded
with the bounties and delcaces of the
season and beautifully ornamented with
flowers. AT two o'clock Deacon j. j..
Howard offered blessing. After partial
ing of the bountles of the table Mr.. and
Mrs. Haven received silver cake basket
and castor from their nephews and nieces,
which was a surprise and called forth the
hearty thanks of the recipients. Very
appropriate remarks were made by Deacon
II. II. Jones, J. j. Howard and l.. s.
Haven thanking friends for their pre-
sence and aid in making it day of SO
much enjoyment. The remainder of the
time was spent IN social chat and all felt
that they had spent the day pleasantly.

may be excused for now repeating what
we then said, making it the concluding
portion of this already too long article. We
then said SIS it possible that in all Brook
Ign, Henry Ward Beecher has not one
strong, true friend. One friend true
enough and brave enough to advise him to
do right, to take the only right, straight
forward course ? Is each and every men,
Der of Plymouth church so afraid of him
that they dare not advise him ? 1t cannot
be possible that they all refrain from adj
vice because they believe him to be guilty !;
yet their present course hardly seems con.
sistent with sincere belief in his innocence
and hearty desire TO see him again the
proud head of Plymouth church, welding
the immense power with which he former
ly swayed almost the whole country. and
making the church itself center of inter-
est if not a national institution.
We are bound to believe that they do not
withhold proper advice on account of his
being headstrong man, determined TO
pursue his own way in spite of obstacles,
because his own statement shows him to
be one of the most tractable and yielding
of men. In this, Frank Moulton's state
ment fully corroborates his, and we are,
therefore, bound to believe Moulton so far,
and TO regard Beecher as anything but a
headstrong man. 1t seems to us, that
looking at the case, either from the stand
point of a belief in his innocence or guilt,
he Is sadly in need of good, strong, safe,
wise friend and adviser. The matter can
no longer be disguised whether he is
gully or innocent, he is fast losing public
confidence, and rapidly slipping down
from that high plane he occupied only a
few days ago. Guilty or innocent, he is
proving himself the weakest and most
frivolous of mankind. If the great crime
with which he ia charged is true, this is
obvious Is it not equally so, if he is in
nocent
An ordinary man, politician, or states
man can afford to remain quiet under a
certain class of ISLANDERS and lbels but
this Is different Henry Ward Beecher
recognized as the greatest pulpit orator of
the age, ''the great preacher" man
whose influence in his day and generation
has been equalled by that OF no man and
cannot be estimated, his name dragged
through the mre and filth as it has been,
and he contenting himself with mere ex-
planatory denial; is that enough? Fal
from it. AS has been said ten thousand
times, it would have killed the scandal as
dead as a stone if uttered four years ago
1t is too late now. He is dealing with az
gressive men-every sentence of Tilton's
and Moulton's statements is aggressive
Beecher must be on the aggressive. II
will not do for him to simply parry the
blows and then rush off to the White Noun
tains and indulge in croquet and Other
frivolities. If Beecher falls, he falls
through his own non action If he is guilty
perhaps he is pursuing the wisest course
We need not enlarge upon this, because il
is self-evident We wish there was one
man in Plymouth church wise and bold
enough to tell Beecher to stop playing GRO
quet and play with more aggressive wea-
pons in Brooklyn
