under sense Of guilt appropriate series
of expressions could not be imagined. 1t was in.

conspirator, why did he not put into the ample

preston of guilt than contained in the letter

THE REPUBLIC1N N0NLN4 TY0N.

And now the question for the people Of Maine to
decide in their choice for Governor is simply this
Where is to be found the man who will be true to
himself, and act with honor toward his constitu-
ents one who will exact that of others which is
Justly due, and bestow patronage for merit alone
and only when absolutely needed. Such man
we believe is to be found in Gen. Selden Conner,
the republican nominee, for the coming State
campaign. We give him our undivided support,
firmly believing in his fitness for the office, and
his ability to cope with political demagogues. We
believe he will secure the election by triumphant
msjority, and that his naive town will most hand
somely respond to the honor conferred upon the
place of his nativity Chronicle.
We confidently assure every republican voter
who may read what we write, that there need be
no fear of casting his suffrage where it will be I'M
deserved in giving it to Gen. Conner. In his
hands the Executive power Of the State and all its
interests can be securely trusted. With such a
nomination, this campaign, so near another Pres
idential election which may be largely affected by
it, seems to be as auspiciously opened az possible
! pom such an one the party can but be united,
There is no excuse for carping OF division Its
candidate truly represents its highest principles,
and in voting for him, every honest republican
does plain conscientious duty.-Rock}aRd Free
Press.
The State convention with wonderful unanimity
has nominated Gen. Selden Conner, as republican
candidate for Governor, this year. That he will
be elected by handsome majority, we cannot
doubt, and this we believe, not because of his no
bic service in the war; but by reason of his recog
nized qualifications for the civil Office which he is
to occupv-C dl0is 1dye,tiSer.

The Kennebec Journal in its usual courteous
manner, denies the truth Of that portion of the
Argus report Of its State convention which states
the manner in which the prohibition plank came
TO be rut in, and says il does it on the authority
Of Major Shorey. We have the authority of qui e
as credible q temperance man Major Shorey

the report, and further, that had not that plank

The Argus stated in its report of the
convention that "Sborey OF Bridgton, and
"a few other radical temperance men got
ION the committee on resolutions, and the
result was Gen. Conner said he was in
flavor of prohibition, and temperance
.'plank was put in the platform" The
Kennebec Journal denied the truth Of this
statement on the authority of Major Shorey
himself, but the Argus still sticks to its
falsehood in spite OF Major Shorey's con
tradiction of it. Any one would have
thought that amer the Argus had introduced
Major Sherey's name to give weight to It's

THE BEECHER TRIAL-ADDRESS OF
Mr.. BEACH,

Mr.. BEACH.
Mr.. Beach resumed his consideration Of the let
ter of retracton, arguing that Beecher dictated il.
The term 'iuculpatng," he said is not woman S
word. Beecher uses the same word in the letter
of contritiou In the letter of recantation Mrs.
Tilton speaks of the other as a letter which she
''coped as her own" In the Storrs letter she
SAYS she "signed" letter which "Beecher wrote"
Beecher swears he did not mention the fact that
he had obtained the letter OF retraction to any
body yet Tilton learned Of it as soon as he ar
rived home. 1t was obvious that his wife gave
him the information on her own voluntary i'm
pulse. Mr.. Beach then quoted from Mrs. Ttons
letter of July, 1871, in which she declares herself
to have been "misled by good man." This was
six months after Tilton had accused Beecher OF
crime. Mr. Beach sked the jury whether they
had any doubt what that meant. Mr.. Beach then
quoted from the Griffith Gaunt letter of June 20,
1871, that she at length saw clearly her sin. In
the novel, he said, Mrs. Tilton saw that she had
heretofore invested her relations with Bcecher
with an impossible purity. Mr. Beach then took
up the West charges, arguing that Beecher per-
sstenty for four years resisted their investigation
and he "innocent;" under no special obligation
| to Bowen and Ti,ton, knowing that these charges
| were damaging him in the community, The jury
must find rational reason for this silence, and
| these struggles TO stihe publicity. They could
| only apply to Beecher the reasons that influence
| the flying convict
| Mr. Beach then took up the offer of the prosecu-

| the stand. lie admitted that by common law Mrs
| Tllton was an incompetent witness, but he insisted
that there was no disability at common law which
| in civil action might not be waved, and cited an
authority in support of the principle. There was
no hardship in Mrs. Beecher off the stand
Why was she not Offered Mr.. Beach would have
consented most freely to her production. Mrs
Tilton knew the truth. Had she been innocent
| she would have shown il on the stand with voice
that would have convinced the world. AT II Isl
Judge Nelson ordered the usual adjournment
AT 2.07 Mr. Beach started off upon the letter OF
contrition. Whether it be called letter Of apoo.
gy or anything else, he said, is Of no importance
1t Is to be judged by its contents. There was nc
difference in the color Of the ink with which il
was written, except such as arose from the alter
nate exhaustion and replenishment of the pen
The question is. sis 1t the language of Mr.. Beech
