Whatever may have been the particular cat
in the meal, the Democrats of Maine, recently
in State Convention assembled, were in highly
complying mood, and their resolutions had the
virtue ofbrevity and the aroma of brOtherly love.
For, in the first place, they prOpounded the
most complete, entire and unqualified acques-
cence in the settlement of the question of the
Presidency and, in the second place. perfect
satisfaction with the Presidents Southern
policy. In the first instance it is true there
was a qualification Too much cannot be ex-
pected of human nature, especially when 1t Is
not allowed to have its own way. We are not
surprised, therefore, to be told that Mr.. Til
den was dIddled ont of the Presidency by " the
"mOst monstrous political fraud recorded in
"histOry." We expect always to find these
cut and dried stock phrases in Democratic
resolutions; and as they seem to give a mourn
fu pleasure TO those who use them, we shall
not worry over them Matters are all made
smooth and serene when we are told that
"the Democracy submits, i'll the interests of
Z. peace" Now, if the Democracy submits, and
the Republicans do not object, what more is
there to say
We beg pardon; the Maine Democracy did
that the thing must not be repeated" What
they would do if it were repeated, 1t is hardly
worth while to inquire, considering how small
are the chances of its repetition. We wouldn't
IN the least hint that under the same circum-
stances the Democracy would again submit in
the same way; only we cannot see what they
would do about it, unless they were ready for
war and carnage. The question was settled
according to law by tribunal competent to
settle it. The Maine Democrats may know OF
some way by which the trouble could have
been differently adjusted, but as they said
nothing about it at the time, they let the gold
en- chance go 10y unimproved Of covering
themselves with immortal glory. But as they
submit, and we submit and everybody submits
they do right to content themselves with a
recommendation OF some amendment of the
Constitution which will give future Tildens a
better chance AT the proper time we beseech
them to bring forward their amendment.
"The Democracy" say the Maine Demo-
Gratis, make no tnctious opposition" Very
good let the noble declaration go upon record
we shall probably have a use for it next
Winter, when Congress gets together and the
Democratic Representatives are big with
speeches and running over with measures.
The claim is set up, it is true, that in his pol
icy of Cancellation the President is only
making "a just ack Acknowledgement of the wis
"dom of Democratic principles" Have it
that way, gentlemen, if you please; choose
your own words; claim whatever you see
fit; but so long rs all good citizens approve
the policy, SO long as its influence is salutary

TIE OHIO COMMUNISTS.

Communists" the only name which fits the
so-called "WOrkingmen's party" of Ohio, is
name which they do not like. 1t belongs to
them, because they have nothing distinctive
except their Commnnisic theories, but they
do not like it, because they are justly ashamed
of the practical results of those same theories
in other lands 1t does not please them to be
reminded that the very notions which distm-
guish them from the least desirable elements
in other parties are those which desOlated
Paris, brought disgrace upon French Republi-
canism, made French labor the next thing to
slavery, and retarded efforts for the assistance
of the laboring classes throughout the civilized
world. Those ideas they frankly avOw; thename
which belongs to them is repealed because the
civilized world shudders when it thinks of the
practical effect of those ideas.
Nevertheless these men cannot call them
selves the Workingmens party. They may get
a great many votes, but they have not the sup
port of One-tenth of the actual wOrkingmen of
the State. The trades unionists are small
minority in that State, but these agtators have
the support of a small minority of trades
uniOniSts. The name they have chosen is a
fraud Ii wrongs the millions of workingmen
who have too much sense to accept the notions
thus cloaked, and it wrongs the public, which
has a right to know that the notions of this
party are essentially COmmunistic.
For example, the platform adopted by the
State Convention at Cincinnati demands, " for
"the purpose of abolishing the wages system, all
industrial enterprises to be placed under the
"control of the Government as fast as practical
"ble and operated by free cooperative unions,
"for the good of the whole people" Farming is
an industrial enterprise, and of all the largest.
Therefore all farms should be placed under the
control of the Government as fast as possible,
and operated 10y free cooperative unions of
farm laborers. We PIT aside, as a minor ques-
ton. the mode by which those who now own
farms, the fruit of their own or their fathers
toll, should be deprived of them whether with
full payment is not stated The plth of the
matter is that all farming shall be done by a
co0perative association of farm laborers, and
those who want to ENJOY the independence of
owning farms OF their own shall not be per-
mitted. This means destruction of agriculture
in America. For what young man, without the
stimulus which the hope Of becoming an
independent farm owner supplies, will ever con-

EENG-NHII.

Little Prince Albert Victor, who if he manages
TO keep alive, will be King of England some
day. is reported to he recovering from the
attack of typhoid fever which was brought
on. AS was his fathers few years ago, by
defective drainage at Sandringham. Human
nature dearly loves gossip about a lord; and
even American papers are full OF astonlsh-
ment that the life of the royal family is
left in danger from so tiiling cause as
leaky cess-pool or defective iiues Yet what
are We doing for typhoid just now? The
latter weeks in August and September are
the time of the year when it reaps its big
gest harvest of death and yet large minority
of townspeoplC are crowded INTO farm houses,
camp-meetings and monster hotels, without
bestowing thought on the danger lying there
iii wait for them. Drainage and proper, decent
cleanliness in pig-pens and other outhouSes
are the very last things on which proprietors
or managers of Summer resorts will spend
money or attention.
The ambitious keeper of a Summer hotel
stocks his house with a cracked piano, electric
bells, and colOred servants from NewTOrk,
while the drains from it are denominations,
smelling high to heaven on every side. At
/
attention has been given to this matter that in
several of them the heaps of rotting garbage
| remained during the last two Summers on the
ground, the poison from them percolatng
/ through the sandy soil into the shallow wells
sunk few feet below the surface. In conse-
quence typhoid and other malarious fevers
| attacked one or two of these mushroom vii
lagos in September with an exceptional yirl-
lence. Now is the time to look to this matter
| their children are not imbibing a slow poison
instead of health from the water and air OF
the mountain and seaside. Now, while town
houses are vacant, too, is the time to alter or
repair their drainage facilities.
The average American needs to be con-
| tlnually spurred to cxcrilOn III this matter. He
is sublmely Indifferent to the easy, common
place means of preserving health, and pays his
hundreds of dollars to a physician, to fight
yanly the year round against trapess pipe
in the back yard which ten dollars would set
right The Chinese are wiser than we. They
pay such fearful respect to malaria that they
have elevated it into an evil spirit yclept
Fng-Shuy If Fung-Shuy says Build here"
or " cave that acre vacant" the prudent heather
obeys and does not die of typhoid. Some
American missionaries, it appears, lately re-
solved to show what humbug Fun6-Shuy
was and built on the ground sacred to some
poisonous eflluvia. The missionaries died and
Fung-Shuy triumphed Let us be heather
! enough to pay him decent respect this FALL
and so ward off the usual SeDtember typhoid
