The Situation Unchanged.

All attempts by republicans to see the
election returns at the State House, have
thus far failed. Yesterday efforts were
made to do so. with the result the same as
before. The letter which may be found in
another column, addressed by Baker d
Baker to the Governor and Council. sums
up the whole case of the republicans who
are interested in the election returns, and
who, contrary to all custom OF precedent,
justice or common sense, are excluded
from seeing them. although they were de-
clared "opened'' last Monday. In the
face of the earnest demands of the petit
TONERS, by themselves or counsel, the
Council adjourned yesterday afternoon,
not to meet again until Friday. The
course of the republicans has been mark
ed by great moderation and excellent
judgment, and meets with general public
approval.

he counting in process next fall was re-
lied upon TO secure the [. :. Senatorship.
The sixty eight thousand republicans who
voted in this State last September do not in
tend to be DISTINGUISHED by any such bold
usurpation: but they believe that the Consti-
tuition and Laws of Maine will be found to
afford fnll protection against and condign
punishment of such a conspiracy against the
liberties of the people. And while the tone
of the democratic press in this matter has
been disgraceful, we believe that the honora-
BILE and order-lovng citizens of whatever par
ty will sustain the most effective measures
for resisting and overthrowing any such at
tempt to revoutionize our State.

What is to be the outcome of this move

conjecture, but among many republicans who
were at Augusta on Monday there exists
grave suspicion that a revolutionary course
Of action is to be foisted on the Governor and
Council, if the weight of a powerful demo-
cratic and fusion faction can be successfully
brought to bear upon the powers that be.
That this great wrong can be successfully
perpetrated, and the voice of the sovereign
people be gainsaid under the plea of consti-
tutionality, legality and regularity, we do not
believe. 1t is safer now to predict that the
sober second thought of the present Execu-
tive and his Council, will prevent the consum-
nation of so fragrant crime against demo-
cratic government.
From the Boston Herald.
Our Augusta correspondent pointed out,
Yesterday, that the throwing out of three
towns-Ktttery, Auburn and Cherryfeld-
would change the political complexion of the
Senate, and give the democrats and Green
hackers nineteen Senators and the republic
cans twelve. The technicalities on which
these three towns can be thrown out are
trivial In Kittery, it is alleged that two no
tees of the election were posted instead of
three; In Auburn, that the notice was posted
six days instead of seven; in Cherryield, that
one OF the selectmen was an alien. Nobody
believes, or pretends to believe, that anybody
failed to vote because of these technical de-
fects in the notice. To take advantage of
such technicalities would be the worst posi-
BILE party policy.

MUELLER. Sung at the unveiling of the statue of
GEN. GEO. II. THOMAS, In Washington, Novem-
Der 10, at the Eleventh Reunion of the Society of
the Army Of the Cumberland.
The site selected for the statue Is the spot where
the salute of eight hundred guns was fired Apri;
s. 1865, in honor of the fall Of Petersburg and cap.
ture of Richmond, and one week later another salute
of five hundred guns, in honor of the surrender of
Lees army. The statue faces south, the line of Wis
ion being directly toward Arlington, the home of
Gen. Lee.

For strife Is at end it was God sheathed the sword
Hallelujahs and thanks be unto the Lord!

And when the States gray clad as foes

Their cause was lost-The Union won
On hallowed ground these veterans stand.

Then on this spot, within the Nations heart,
Raise prouder trophy than bcqueathed by art.
The Union Banner! Loyal men shall hold
With fealty born of God, each ovreign fold.

Thy native hills now greet thee face to face.

One of NapOleOn's Veterans.
A SOLDIER OF THE OLD GUARD Dies IL BAL
TIMoRE, NEARLY 100 YEARS Old.

BALTIMORE, Nov. 17.--Col. John Freder-
lex Won Werder died in this city last night at
the Aged Mems Home, aged 30 years, 10
months and l6 days. A morning paper says
Won Werder was one of the Old Guard: was
with the First Napoleon in his retreat from
Moscow; saw his wedding with Maria Louisa

from manuscript sketch which he has left
behind him was born in Prussia on the LIST of
January, 1850. In 1896 he joined the Prus-
sian army, and at the battle of Jena was made
prisoner by the French, afterward joining
that service. In 1907 and 1908 he fought in
Spain, and in the latter year married the
daughter of a Spanish grandee. He took
part in the battles of Aspern, Eschlingen and
Wagram, and was made aide-de-camp to Gen.
Murat. In the spring Of 1912 he was ap-
pointed aide-de-camp to Marshal Ney, ard
marched to Russia entering Moscow with
Napoleon. At Beressina he was twice
wounded, and after his recovery again joined

The Contingent Conspiracy

From the Portland Press.
If the motives of the fusionists have been
suspected, they have received the rare com.
pliment of being taken at their word. OF
that they complain. They ought not now
to be surprised if their late assurances are
taken with distrust The strong exhibition
of public condemnation of the course they
threatened to pursue has cowed them, and
they are hesitating. If the attempt to defeat
the will of the people is abandoned it will
not be from honest motives but because the
conspirators dare not carry it into execution.
If this latest declaration of the fusionists
that they only want and intend to claim what
belongs to them, can be accepted, then must the
plan TO unseat the Senators-eect from the
counties named be given the go-by, for the
people of those counties have plainly and UNI
mistakably expressed their wish in those
cases. The republican majorities in York.
Cumberland, Androscoggin and Washington
are sufficiently large to set that beyond all
question. The voters intended to choose re-
publican Senators and no man seriously dis
putes that intention. 1t cannot be pretended
that any voter was misled as to time and
place of election by insufficient notice in Au-
burn or insufficient posting Of warrant in Kit
terry, or the place of nativity of the Cherry
field Selectmen. If the evident intent of the
voters is to be regarded the republican Sena-
tors-elect will be given their certificates, and

them. If the republicans are counted out,
the fnsionists will be guilty of stealing seats
belonging to their republican neghbors.
From the Bangor Wing.
1t appears that the Hon. John b. Foster,
of this city, who had SO freely given to re-
publ:cans here assurances that there was
no intention TO do the slightest injustice,
has taken the lead in denying all the cand-
dates OF one party their Statutory right of
access to the election returns, and that
under his craftsmanship yesterday the
Council were too much engrossed in the
important duty of pardoning rum
seller to pay heed to republican Senator's
elect, who were kept waiting in the
ante-room for hours and ultimately deprived
OF their rights as conferred by the laws
Of the State. The people of Bangor who
have three Representatives directly interested
in the returns, the people of Penobscot

involved, the people of the State at large,

should examine the official election returns

The Electoral Commission as a
Pretext for Stealing the Maine
Legislature,

As pretext for attempting to steal the
Maine legislature, the fusionists say it is
only PLAYING upon the republicans game
which the latter played through the Elec-
toral Commission to seat Mr.. Hayes in
the Presidential chair.
As five of the present Executive Coun-
cillors supported Hayes for President, it
would be interesting to know how this
view of the case strikes them,
As a matter of fact. the democrats and
not the republicans are responsible for the
Electoral Commission and of course for
its results. They paved the way for what
ever followed. The Kenncbec Journal
opposed the Electoral Commission bill ;
the Maine Standard supported it. Mr.
Hamlin and Mr.. Blaine voted against it in
the Senate; while every democratic
representative and senator in New Eng
land voted for it. Every democrat in the
Senate but one voted in favor of it. In
the House l59 democrats voted for the bill
and IS democrats against it, while in the
same body there were only 80 republicans
who voted in its favor
Is it not the sublmity of impudence--
it impudence ever can be sublime--for the
party which initiated and supported the
Electoral Commission by almost solid
vote in Congress, by all its now bowling
organs about the Electoral fraud''-in-
