clear Of railroad influences. There
will be tremendous influence brought
to bear by the railroads and national
banks to control the nominations OF
each of the political parties, The par
that makes its nominations under such
influences will DO defeated. Mark tho
prediction
But some one may say, suppose that
each of the Democratic and Republ'-
can parties nominate candidates in tho
interests Of monopoly. What then ?
Why, there will Immediately spring
into existence third party, which will.
sweep everything before it. The cur
rencY question is going to have u ire,
mendous bearing, and no ticket need
be gotten up by either political party
that docs not carry with it assurance of
reform and economy in the administra-
ton of State affairs, and in favor Of
platform that the volume Of currency
shall be kept equal to the demands Of
trade.
Hard times arc setting tho people to
thinking, aud when the great majority
of the people get to thinking, some
thing "ls going to turn up" and the
trimming aud Vaccinations Of political
wirc-workers will avail very little.
Tho people are going to please them
selves without regard to advancing the
p crsonal interests of political parties.
We have said this much, not only
with profound regard for tho welfare
of the Democratic party. but also for
tho good Of personal friends who arc
aspiring, with worthy ambition, for
political prefermcnt, aud whose anxiety
and that of their friends for success,
may lead them into complications Of
an unfortunate character. Many
good man has been sacrificed by an in
judicious step. Our advice to "slate-
makers would DO just to keep patient,
and when our State Convention meets
and is properly constituted, as We are
sure that it will be, your favOrito can
didatc will have his claims passed on
in considerable manner.

shop stood on the bank ofthe Kenduskeag, little
below the old bridge. He served out his time at

limited, rs in those days an apprentice was given
one months schooling in year; and very well
