The October Elections.

While the democrats are struggling with
the figures of the Maine election in the
vain effort to make their tremendous de-
feat appear less than it is. the republicans
are concentrating their interest upon the
contests that are to take place in October
On October 4th Georgia will elect Gov.
ernor and other State and local officers,
the choice of Congressman going over TO
November. On October 10Th, the cleo
tions in Ohio, Indiana, West Virginia and
Colorado will take place. Pennsylvania
tutions have passed prematurely into the
November States and their familiar Octc-
ber utterances will be heard no more.
Iowa, by special constitutional provision
holds its election for State officers and
members Of Congress, in Presidential
years, in November. But nevertheless,
Pennsylvania, Iowa and Nebraska can be
counted on for Hayes and Wheeler Just
as well as though they should render a
preliminary decision in October.
As Ohio has made no change in its con-
stitution on the subject it will elect its
twenty Congressman in October. A Sec
retary OF State and other minor officers
will also be chosen. The State is of course
conceded 10 the republicans by COM
mandng majority, Indiana will elect a
Governor. other State and local officers
and members of Congress. The cam
paign is up to boiling heat and If the re-
publican enthusiasm increases as it has in
creased for the past few weeks-and there
is every indication that it will-the election
of Harrison seems assured. With the
loss of Indiana in October the bottom
would fall completely out of the Tilden
and Hendricks concein and leave an open
field for Hayes and Wheeler.
Colorado will elect its single member
OF Congress and its State officers under
the new Constitution at the October elec-
ton. There seems little doubt Of repub-
lican success. West Virginia holds its
general election on the l0ih Of October
but the choice OF Congressman goes over
to November. And there, too, where it
was hardly expected. the republicans are
making splendid campaign with some
hope of victory.

POLITICAL.

The Richmond Erquirer, perhaps the ables
Tden paper in Virginia has been suspended.
Gov. Hendricks refuses to accept Senator Nor
tons challenge for joint discussion in Indiana
The Albany Journal says that Tilden's conf
dauts in taat city counted on cutting down the re-
publican majority in Maine to 5000. When they
got the actual result they probably said they
couldn't see the "usufruct' of it.
One worthy out ol-town democrat, an honest,
industrious, fore handed man, who never ought to
have been democrat, said to republican as be
came in to town yesterday morning: al have
been told year after year here by the Grand Sa-
chem of the democracy that we are sure to sue
ceed this time. SO he told me last week. l will
believe him no more, and never again will throw
a democratic vote" There is nothing gained by
deceiving the people.-Eastport Sentinel.
One Of the encouraging things in this canvass
is found in the number of men who have hereto
fore acted with the Democratic party who have
this year come into the republican ranks-In Els
worth, We can count them by dozens, and they
have evidently "come to stay" Modern Democ-
racy has frightened them. They helped US this
year to redeem Ellsworth, and with them the re-
publican party will be glad to march and keep step
In the years to come. Republicanism was never
so strong in Hancock County and in the City of
Ellsworth as to-dsy-EHsgorth american.
Judge Black says he regards Col. Robert In
gersol "the ablest or one of the ablest orators
in the country" "Why hasut he been heard Of
before 7" repeated Judge Black. "Why, he has
been, in his own country and among his own kin.
and we all know him. But he has not been ambi-
tious of national fame, and he would not probably
appear now but FOR his friendship for Blaine, and
the great success he had out there at Cincinnati
when he presented his friends name to the con-
vention in speech of remarkable power" Col.
Ingersoll lives, it is said, in magnificent house
in Peoria, and has a great practice in the sur
rounding courts.
Suppose the old democratic leaders in Maine,
Messrs. Emery, Pillsbury and the like, had been
in Europe this summer, and some young demo-
crat without war record which was ruin in itself
had been run for Governor, would the result have
been the sanei 1t will be long before the demo-
crsts can triumph under leaders who do not have
and cannot acquire popular confidence and respect.

The New York democrats were so
frightened by the returns from Maine that
they held their State convention without
the usual quarrel, making their nomina-
tion unanimous, and adjourning without
the first speech. In the nomination OF
Lucius Robinson for Governor they east
loose from Bourbonism and make bid
for votes from the liberals. The liberia s
respond by saying it is too late. after the
nomination of Seymour by the party, to
invite the liberal element to support I'll
den. The nomination will neither draw
the liberals nor command the hearty sup
port of the democracy.

The result of the vote as published in

according to the returns received, which

the returns give it, anything in democratic
papers to the contrary notwithstanding.

The MisdIreetiOn of the Bile.

The misdirection of the bile, consequence
which ensues when the liver is inactive and the
bowels torpid produces a number of bodily evils.
The blood becomes contaminated with the bilious
fluid, causing the skin and the whites of the eyes
TO assume yelowish tinge; dyspepsia and nausea
supervene, the tongue becomes furred, the breath
fntid, there are pains in the side and between the
shoulder blades, the urine is high colored and
scadng, and in aggravated cases jaundice and in
hammation of the liver ensue. All these conse
quences may be prevented or obviated by using
Hostetter's stom ,ch Btters, vegetable Alternative
tonic which stimulates the inactive liver to exert
itself in secreting and directing the bile, acts nat
urally upon the bowels and removes every trace o

The Presidency.

A class of the very best citizens OF
Indiana are striving 10 put Ben
Harrison, lawyer Of great ability,
of indianapolis, on the race for the
Presidency. Mr. Harrison is grand
son Of President Harrison, and is
man of not only great ability but OF
culture and purity man as
political traders do not think OF bring
ing forward. An effort was made to
nominate him for Governor Of lndi-
are still endeavoring to persuade him
into acceptance, because bis name
wo Id give character and strength
TO the ticket Others wish the dele
cation from Indiana TO the RepublI~
can National Convention 10 be COM
mitted for him instead OF for Morton
for the Presidency. Such preference
wouli indeed be wise Harrison is
Indiana's faVorte son. lis name
would carry that State by storm,
while there 10 large portion OF the
best 81 sment of the Republican party
in that State couli hardly be dragged
into the support Of Morton. Bat,
with Blaine, Sherman, Washburn,
Conkling and Bristow, who have
more national repute, entered for the
Presidential race, it is hardly SUP
possible that Mr.. Harrison could be
nominated His name would, how
| ever. be as potent in Indiana were
he given the second place, as # ut the

lively young man, and lodiana

years hence, to have him 10 the line
of the Presidency locality will be
question of consideration at the
next Republican Convention. The
West has now had the President for
sixteen years. Illinois has furnished
the candidate for the last four terms.
This fact will be in Wash burns way.
The East, away down in Maine, will
make the welkin echo with deeper
slogan next November than can be
sounded on the name of any western
man. If Indiana puts her noble
Harrison in the body Of the ticket,
the whole land will be safe There
can be no stronger ticket made than
the one here suggested, nor, if tho
aurprise can be effected, can there be
better name to lea4 than that Of

OUR legislature does very wrong
in resolving itself into an audience
to be preached to by railroad attor-
neys or agents. The railroad COM
mittee is also in the habit of permit
ing those agents to 60 before 1T and
barangue by the hour, which is
equally reprehensible. At the con-
clusion OF these performances by
men who, 10 the interest of the rail-
roads, have studied and worked up
the case for months, there is 3 pre-
tended show Of fairness on their part,
in calling on any parties who differ
with them to come forward and pre-
sent their case. The only way the
matter could be fairly presented by
outsiders, would be by an agreement
beforehand, By proper representa-
tives of the two interests, TO appear
and argue their sides of the case, but
we do not think the legislature should
tolerate even that. If the people do
not send members to the legislature
capable of inquiring into the right
and wrong of such questions, let
them suffer until they learn to send
more capable representatives. Every
form of the "lobby" should be dis
conntenanced and abolished.
