Our Citv Election.

The Democrats of Belfast have every
reason to be proud of Mondays work
But few years ago the regular Repub-
lican majority in Belfast was $50 Last
September we achieved q Democratic
majority Of two votes, after most deter
mined struggle. This year there was a
Republican effort to not only redeem the
city, but to pile up, as nearly as possible,
the old time majority. The Democrats
were aware, when they began the can
vass, that they contended against desper-
ate men. the influence of nearly all the
offices, city, county, state and federal in
the locality, besides the unlimited use OF
money. But they did not finch one par
ticle. On the contrary, we never saw
them work with more determination and
courage than they did on that day against
the fearful odds The result OF all this
tremendous Republican effort is that they
elect their Mayor by a majority that in an
honest reckoning is not over four votes
but which By illegal count they work up
to eight That is their great victory.
The two Democratic aldermen, Messrs
Eottrell and Williamson, are among our
most intelligent and reliable citizens, and
we have two excellent men in the coun-
climen OF Ward 3. So, as a whole, the
Democrats have much reason to be salts

A SDeCimeu Radical,

The great crime of Belknap and its con-
sequent excitement has overshadowed
some other Investigations that are in pro
gress, and that show corruption quite as
bad. if less conspicuous The Postoffice
Department has a great many bad spots.
Among them is the case Of McLane, a
kind of runner for Postmaster General
Jewell, and who paid him 10y drawing on
the treasury. while McLane was doing his
dirty work Another like case, that of
the notorious Hester, who was employed
by the administration to inaugurate reign
of terror in Alabama to carry the election
for the Republicans there, was examined
at length by the House Committee on the
Expenditures of the Postotlice Department.
From his testimony, it appears that he
was paid SIG a day as special agent OF the
Postofiice Department, when the legal pay
is only 81 600 year, and that his entire
business was to invent ''ku-Klux out
RACES" and intimidate voters in the inter
est of the Republican Party. When he
was appointed special agent, he says, he
knew the compensation Of special agents
was 81 500 per annum but he told Mr..
Jewell he would not go unless he was
paid $40 per day for expenses. Mr.. Jewell
said he should have it, that it was all
right; he wanted him to 90 to Alabama.
Hester said the understanding with the
General when he left Wash
ington was that on his return from Ala
bama he was to be continued on the rolls
of the Department, for which he was to
perform merely nominal duty. 1t was fin
ally concluded, however, that he should
60 into the service OF the Department of
Justice and return to Alabama and finish
his work, and be resigned his position in
the Postotfice Department, received his pay
and was appointed special agent the
same day 10y the Attorney-General.
In reply to questions, Hester admitted
he had been Il rebel a blockade runner,
president OF a real estate association for
disposing Of real estate by lottery, and ad-
mitted having been arrested in New York
for obtaining goods under false pretences
When asked why he was given such unus-
ual and unlawful compensation by the
Postmaster General, he said he supposed
it was for the extraordinary expenditure
of nerve power in going down among the
Ku-klux. The story told by Hester of
his operations in the South is too well
known to require repetition now lie ad-
mitted that his proceedings caused great
CONSERVATION, and that people against
whom there were no charges lett their
homes and fled to the swamps. Of the for
ty OF fifty men he arrested, not one was
indicted although they were taken before
United States Courts He also related his
recall from Alabama, and said he under
stood it was because the Postmaster-Ge en-
eral had become alarmed at the false and
exaggerated accounts given of his opera
tons in the new spapers. The examine
ton lasted over five hours and demonstra-
ted in the most unmistakable manner the
outrageous character of this especial
agent of Secretary Jewell who was IL
legally paid to swear away the liberties
and lives of honest people tor the sole pur-
pose of carrying the election in the State
of Alabama for the Republican Party,

1t is to be hoped that the liquor agency
in this city will not be reopened But if
it shall be, one thing should be insisted
upon-and that is that the inexcusable
looseness in its accounts should no longer
be tolerated. There should be an account
taken Of the stock on hand, and recorded,
there should be an exact account kept of
purchases, and the provision of law which
requires an account of sales to each indi-
vidual. in amount and value, should be
enforced. At the end of the year another
account of stock on hand should be taken
and the balance struck. The public should
be informed how many gallons of liquor
have been sold, and how much profit or
loss has resulted. These are but simple
and easy requirements, and there can be
no good reason for refusing compliance
with them. We intend to keep an eye on
this business, and let the public know
what is being done.
S. is the signature of one of the softer
sex who, through the columns of the
Rockland Free Press. addresses the editor
of this paper by the endearing term of
"Simpy." We were quite unprepared for
a confession combining so much passion
and publicity. But we rallied sufficiently
to take down the Scriptures and read the
account of Joseph's victory over tempta-
ton, as well as Solomon's exhortations to
a virtuous life, and felt much strengthen
ed. Really, Brother Sprague, we hope
you will in future restrain that lady's ar
dent expressions. People might talk, you
