Mr.. Blaine and the Presidency.

The republican members Of the Legislature, in
behalf of that party in this state at caucus Tor
selecting delegates TO the next national convention
unanimously presented the name of Hon James
G.. Blaine TO the republicans fthe Union as can
didate for the next Presidency. The republicans
of the State have acted adviscdly. They have not
simply bestowed we'll deserved compliment and
honor upon an eminent citizen and worthy servant,
but understanding the qualifications which our
President should possess, ttey believe they are
offering the country a man IN every way sul'ea 10
the position, as good man for the place as can
be found in the United States This confidence
accounts for the enthusiasm manifested on all
sides. and the earnest determination everywhere
eyinced to urge the consideration of the name CT
our distinguished citizen by every republican OF
the Union
OF all other candidates who have ever been mer-
toned in connection with the Presidency not one
can be named whose sympathes would be so Ike
" to be national as would Mr.. Blaines. Born in
Peunsy lvania, adopted by Maine, for many years
while our nation has been shaken to Its very
center, and not township but has been deeply
interested in most every measure that has been
brought to public attention-an active participant
in all action tending to the public interest our
representative must have acquired knowledge
of men and of affairs which cannot fail to make his
mind national Does not his COMPRESSION career
show this When we add to this the political
knowledge of Mr.. Blaine, his wonderful political
sagacty and the remarkable ability and power he
has shown as an executive and a master OF parlla-
mentary principles, We may well be proud to pre-
sent his name to the country, and if necessary, we
need not hesitate nor fear to compare eN-Speaker
Blaine with any candidate who may be urged for
the Presidency.

DENOCRATIC DEVICES At AUGUSTA
It is very evident from what we can
hear and see that the old democratic ami
mus is secretly but actively 1T work among
the democratic leaders in the legislature,
and that they are adroitly seeking to SOW
dissensions among the republicans under
the plausible guise of -partisanship and
devotion 10 the public interests. 1t is
known that they have had much secret cas-
cusing and have carefully matured their
plans. Knowing that the re publicans have
for years trusted to their greatly superior
strength and have somewhat neglected
their discipline, their willy opponents seek
to catch them unawares and by united
minority to dictate the policy Of the major
ity. This is unquestionably the basis of
their whole programme.
But Mr.. Talbot and his associates may
find themselves disappointed. The repub-
licans know the great value Of their prin-
ciples to the State and the Nation and do
not intend to become victims of the cum
ningly devised plans of their opponents.
They know the supreme Importance Of
unity as the means of maintaining their
ascendency. and in this great political year
of 1876 do no. intend to be diverted from
the patriotic resolution to keep the State
and National Governments out Of the
lands Of the party which was untrue to
the Union and to Human Liberty in the
years of war and peril.
Fore-warned is TO be Fore-armed. The
republicans of Maine do not propose to
surrender an inch Of their vantage ground
and will oppose a united front to the Bour-
bons, North and South. The Confederate
politicians of the Cotton States are to-day
In firm alliance with the democratic parti-
zans of Maine; common political hopes
and aims animate them all, and citizens
who love republicanism because they love
impartial liberty, and all devoted to the
integrity OF the Nation. will continue
their advocacy OF Reform, Of Education
of the People and of Justice to All
We hope that our republican friends in
the legislature will keep sharp eye on The
quiet little moves Of their opponents, and
that the more plausible and smooth-spok.
en- of the democratic leaders viii! be
watched the sharpest Of all. 1t may be
safely considered that no proposition of
public character, with whatever air of in
nocence it may be put forward, will be in
troduced by the democrats at this session
with any other design than the gaining of
some political advantage. A favorite de-
vice will be throwing little bones of con-
tention among the republican majority,
and the report of proceedings show that
this experiment has already commenced.
We are quite sure that our friends are too
wide-awakc to play into the hands of
their enomles by noticing the obvious bats
for dissension. Let the foxy democratic
managers understand that the majority are
quite too shewd to fritter away any
strength over topics brought forward sim.
ply to excite local or other prejudices and
that our legislature proposes to hold with
an iron grip the advance ground upon
which our grand old State enters the Cen
tennial Campaign.
