ONE thing IL toierably apparent,
and that is that the Repu biican
party will not figure considerably
in the next House of Representa-
tives. Ever since 1856 Maine has
had solid Republican delegation.
This year little Eugene Hale goes
to the wall. There Is something
scenic and spectacular about this
fate of the minim Hale. 1t Is
only little while ago that a circu-
lar was Issued from the headquar-
ters of the National Republican
Executive Committee, with the
mighty names of liIle Engeue
Hale, of Maine, and George C.
Gorham, of Caiforuis, appended.
Il solicited funds to carry on the
Congressional contest. Even a0e
received circular asking rs to
contribute to this Republican Cou.
gressional fund. A few of the Con-
gressional elections have been beld
since. The first was that of Ore.
gon. rhe Democracy swooped In
the entire delegation of that State,
which consists of one msmb Der; but
he is a mem Der who, il the election
for President goes into the House,
counts for as much as the whole
lower House delegation of the
State of New York. Next came
Kentucky, in which the Democra-
cy were solid. Next Arkansas, in
which the Democracy stand as
we'll as they did in the last
FL House. Next came Maine-"have
you heard the news from Maine"
lin which, for the first time since
the organic alton of the Repub-
llican party, that party in the
Maine Congressional delegation
only rules 6y a majority of one.
There are three Republicans, one
Democrat and one Green backer in
the next delegation from Maiue In
the House of Representatives.
Verify the Republican party is
b Ing triturated; Or, in other
words, ground to powder. How
ever the charm of the words may
fail in subsequettes lREezldsntial e &C.
ttons, the Solid DEMOCRATIC
South is going 10 determine the
q qIestion in the Presidential elec-
on of 1889. In March 1870 the
Congressional curtain will roll up
with a large Democratic majority
In both the Senate and House,
making the head OF the fraudulent
President as uneasy rs the poet
supposes to he that which wears a
crown.
