The WooroN Desk. call atten-
ton to the advertisement of the Wooton
Desk Company. The cuts will indicate the
style, but the desk. to be fully appreciated,
must be seen and examined. 1t is certainly
all that the manufacturers claim for it
compact, convenient ard durable. 1t is the
most complete office desk ever manuf;lc-
tured. During our recent visit to Indian
apolis, we called at the WOotOn Desk facto-
ry, and found them filling orders for this
wonderful desk, from all parts of the world.
We could not resist the temptation to order
one, and we invite the lovers of the elegant
and the perfect in the way OF office turni-
ture to call and see it.

am authorized by the Board of Control
of the Mississippi State Fair Association to
invite the officers OF the State Grange, and
the Masters of each Subordinate Grange,
or his accredited representative, to attend
the next Annual State Fair November Sth
to 18th. The privileges of the grounds will
be given to all who will bring proper Gre
dentials to the Secretary of the Associa-
ton. 1t is the desire of the Association to
enlist the active cooperation of the Agri-
culturists and Mechanics of the State. 1t is
hoped that each delegate from a Grange
will bring some article for exhibition, and
give to the managers the benefit of their
experience. The next Fair should surpass
all previous exhibitions of the products OF
our sell and the industries of our people.
II each will help, success is certain.

CAMPAIGN SONG.
TUNE-" OLD RosIS THE BOW

I've travelled this country all over,
! And now TO another must GO.
/ Where the daTkies arc easier swindlgd.
| And less OF my lying do know.
1 came from the cold frosty region,
The land of the lee and the SHOW,
l came with earpet-bag empty,
But now It's quite full as you know.
At home ! was ragged and dirty,
AID lett " lien The sun lad got low,
But soon made rise in this country,
When | got in the Freedmen's Bureau.
| told how | shouIdered my muskef,
And fought for the poor old negro,
How / hated the SeceSh and rebels,
And told them TO hate 'eIn also.
/ swore them at night By dark lanterns,
In the ieague We cell loyal you know,
Aud made them believe If they lett il,
Straight down to the devil they'd go.
| promised that land we would give them,
Ofacres quite forty or more,
With a mule fat aud ready to tend il,
That caught the fool dArkey be sure.
[ promised to give them all office,
And make them my equals also,
made them think | was an angel,
And this earth would be Heaven below.
We got every office we wanted
And threw the poor darkies bone,
We robbed and we stole without fearing,
For Grant he would let US alone.
That mourniul fact speech of old Greeley
Struck the first heavy blow.
Now the niggers, confound 'em want office,
Then where shall we carpet-bags go?
see that more trouble is coming,
The mule and the land | can't show,
So like many a swiUdier before me,
| must pack up my stealings and go.

Current Notes.

A Tribune correspondent in Ohio reports
the Republicans "splendidly oreanized' and
confident, the more sagaeious Democrats de-
spondent, and the chances for the defeat of
Allen excellent. Cary & Co. have oyerdope
the business, he thinks.
Tue Hon. Fred Hassaurek, the distinguish
ed German Liberal of Cincinnati, writes to a
friend in Akron, o., that he shall vote for
Gen. Hayes. He cannot by his vote indorse
the financial heresies of the Democratic state
platform, though, in other respects, he is yery
well pleased with it. The Germans of Ohio
seem to be voting solidy with the RepubIi-
cans this wear; and it is believed that thew
and the anti school-fund division men hold
the balance of power.
A correspondent of the Cincinnati Gazette
has taken the pains to cast up the accounts
OF defaleations and rascalities of state and
county officials in Ohio since 1856. If he has
been accurate in his calculations. the people
have lost 81, ,2S0, ,631 .21 through the diShones-
ty OF Democrats, and only $50, 500 BY Repub-
iiean malteasance. The comparison Is sug-
gestive. ~ 49,
One thing is certain, to wit: that no party
can represent the issue OF Reform Ia any
sense without broadly recognizing the cur
rency question as the basis and beginning of
all reform, the hardpan on which to build up
public virtue as well as public faith.-New
York Tribune.
The Ohio election will probably furnish the
country in 1876 with the issue upon which
the presidential election will be fought The
Democrats and Republicans of the whole
country will be brought to choose, as they are
now in Ohio, between honest money and dis
honest money, between honest dollars and
delusive paper purportiDg TO be dollars, be-
tween money that has a permanent value the
world over and promises that have no redem-
ton. Republicans and Democrats will baye
no escape from this issue; they will be CON-
PEELED to take one side or the other. They
must vote for one thing or the other or not
vote at all.-Chicago Tribune.
When the election in Ohio is over, and all
the aspects of the presidential election are
brought in view, we have no doubt that the
people will have their eyes open 10 the vast
importance of keeping the Democracy out of
power, and will Join their efforts in favor OF a
policy which shall put forever out of sight the
dangerous dogma of expansion, and lead the
nation away from repudiation into paths of
industry and plenty by such legislation as will
establish confidence in the currency and give
to business its old-time energy ane thereby TO
the country that prosperity which its vast re-
sources are waiting for.-Hrtford Courdnt.

ally large, since every effort has been made
secretly to bring out the last man. Apprised
of this fact, it becomes every Republican to
do his utmost in his locality to swell the Re-
publican vote. There are various agencies
by which this can be accomplished, but the
most potent and effective work can be done by
Republicans in their own neighborhoods by
inducing their Republican neishbors to goto
the polls and vote the party ticket. BY this
means alone, our vote can easily be increased
nVe thousand over last year, and it must be
increased nearly ten thousand if we propose
to maintain the majority of 1874. Now this
can be easily done if the "old guard" in the
school districts will but display their usual
zeal; from what we can learn we believe that
they will 60 into the work in the old way and
bring about the usual results.
The vote of 1878 and 1874 will doubtless
be of interest to our readers, aud we append

The Portland daily press. [volume] (Portland, Me.) 1862-1921, 1875-08-27

From the above it will be seen that the
aggregate vote the year before the Presiden-
tial election was increased more than ten
thousand over that of the year following the
Presidential election, and seven thousand
over that of the even year when members of
Congress are chosen. 1t will also he seen
that the Republican majority was increased
more than twenty-five hundred. In 1871,
Mr.. Charles P. Kimball was the special
champion of the Democracy and warm and
profuse were the eulogies paid him by the
party papers. Mr.. Kimball threw himself
into the campaign with energy. Thousands
of secret circulars were sent out 10 ''enthuse"
the hearts of the faithful. Indeed so much
work had been done that Mr.. Kimball quite
imagined that the big chair at Augusta
would certainly hold his rotund figure and
that his ornate English would appear in
official documents.
1t is useless to disguise the matter. Our
opponents are busily at work. They will
bring out a full party vote. 1t will not be the
fault of the leaders if their vote is not unus u

THAT financial juggIer, the argus, should
stick to the text when it gives the net orui-
nary expenditures of the government, and not
skip about here and there in order that it may
find a chance to show that the expenses of
running the government are increasing. Now
if it prefers ordinary expenditures to total
expenditures, why not give the whole? Why
omit the years 1878 and 1874? The follow
ing figures will show: Is.

1t will be seen that the argus dropped out
the year 1873 because, compared with the
year 1875, the ordinary expenses have been
reduced nearly nine millions, aud compared
with 1874, almost tacenty-three millions. By
putting in a part Of the truth, but emitting
more essential part, the Argus succeeds in
making it appear that the expenditures are
constantly increasing. Most artful dodger!

The State Election.

Two weeks from next Monday, September

election of a member of Congress to succeed
Mr.. Hersey in the Bangor district, the issues,
strictly speaking, are not of a national char
acter; but as it is the election next proceed
ing the Presidential election of 1876, national
issues are discussed and a greater interest is
manifested in the result as showing the drift
of public sentiment than in any of the other
"of'' years. In view of this fact, the election
next preceding the Presidential election has
been more hotly contested than any others,
except the year of the general struggle,
