THERE is but little doubt nov

THERE is but little doubt now
but that the Democratic Returning
Board in Maine intend to count out
the Republicans in that State and
count in the Democrats. The Maine
Standard, the Democratic organ Of
that State, says in its issue Of the
18th inst. in this connection, that
"the returns from Portland, Lewis
ton, Saco, Augusta, HalloWells,
Bath and Rockland counties for
representatives, all have some tech>
nical defect, and the Governor
and Council will reject them all.
These counties elected fifteen Re-
publican representatives. The most
common defect alleged is that the
returns were signed by three Alder
men, instead of four
The course is fraught with grave
consequences, but misfortune will
follow its contamination which will
fall as heavily on the one side as
the other. The specification of
the returns put the Legislature in
the hands of the Legislature. The
Legislature puts the whole State
government in their hands. The
State Legislature being in the hands
of the Democrats, also puts them
in possession of the Electoral vote
of the State in the next Presiden>
tial election. No one is foolish
enough to think that they will not
carry out this programme, if they
have the audacity to carry out the
present one, and the declar alton Of
the Standard settles this in the
affirmative.
This is the misfortune that will
weigh heavily on the Republicans.
This revolutionary proceeding, how
ever, will add just one-half to the
effect of the extra session. It will
give New York, Indiana, and all
the doubtful, if there be any doubt
full ones just now except these two,
Northern States to the Republicans
by good majorities. Thus it will
bear heavily ON the Democratic
shoulders, already bent beneath a
dreadful "burden." The song says
that a "heart bowed down by
weight of woe, to slightest consolar
ton clings," and as the Democrats
are clinging to such remarkably
''slight consolation in this game
we have no reason to doubt its con-
Viction.

o. 90 :
THE KNOXVILLE CHRONICLE
And Weekly Wing and Chronicle
for 1880.

During the coming Presidential
year, the DAILY CHRONICLE will
take an active part in the vigorous
discussions of all political issues
involved, and will, al the same
time, keep its readers fully posted
on all the important events of the
day. 1t will do whatever is honest
and legitimate to promote the sue
cess of the Republican ticket,
placing fidelity to the interests of
that party above any personal aims
or priyata ambition. To this end
it will favor the selection of good
men with clear records, per-
sonal and political, for standard
bearers in the coming canvass, and
when such are selected, it will do
everything reasonable to secure
their success. ae2 ID
In State politics, the CHRONICLE
will support no man for any Office,
from Governor down to constable,
who is not in favor of paying the
State debt upon terms satisfactory
to the creditors of the State. It
will oppose the efforts of repudia-
tionists to drag the entire State
down to their low and degraded
standard, first, last and all the time,
and even though the repudiationists
should be successful, it will continue
to denounce them and their infa-
nous schemes.
The WING AND CHRONICLE will
be published weekly, as before, and
will be made up from the issues of
the DAILY CHRONICLE. It will con-
tain choice selection of miseella-
neous matter each week, together
with editorials, telegraph and local
matter. Especial attention will be
given its columns, and everything
that could be Objectionable in the
family circle will be carefully ex-
cluded. It will be the object of the
publishers to make it a welcome
visitor into the families of the
country.
Its market reports will be carefully
revised every Tuesday and made as
nearly perfect and reliable as pos.
sible. E.aa
The Agricultural columns of the
WIG AND CHRONICLE shall receive
close attention, and will be i'm
proved all the time. In this depart
ment, the views of practical. farmers
on topics of interest will be invited.
The proprietors of these two old
and well established journals will
spare no pains to keep up and add
to their established reputation, and
are confident that they will make
them worth many times more than
the subscription price charged.
