A NICE QUESTION f. A. Pike of Cal
ais, who has been elected to the Legislature, is
certified to be Republican by one of our
Washington county Republican papers. on the
ground that he recently declared himself "As
good Republican as he ever was" while on
the other hand the Bangor Democrat gives
him a certificate of orthodoxy in the Demo-
cratic camp, on the more substantial ground
that "He has voted the straight Democratic
ticket for three years" The question reduces
itself to this: SIS man better known by his
professions or by his acts?" An exchange re-.
minds us that many of the bitterest Demo-
Gratis call themselves True Republicans" very
much in the same manner that Judas took
great pains to profess friendship for the Savior
