IT has been found out that the Re
publicans Of Pennsylvania at their
State convention in 1915 declared
themselves as ''unalterably opposed to
the election to the Presidency Of any
person to a third term As the ma-
chine is now booming for Grant this
seems to make things look little IN
consistent, hut that is what makes
politics SO Interesting to great
many. When that resolution was
passed there was no way of knowing
that any Republican national admins

upon the Pennsylvania machlne.-

the country that "the recent revival by the
" Democratic party of the Southern doc
trinc of state Rights" he regards as the
most important question of the day,
and elsewhere refers TO 1t as the
issues before which questions of
money, labor, or property sink
into comparative insignidcance." With
this patriotic and earnest warning, he APP
peals to the people of Maine, whether they
agree with him or not on questions of
finance that they do not allow themselves
to be diverted from their allegiance to the
cause of the Nation by minor divisions in
our own camp, while "our old enemy is re-
viving the Lost Cause and is sapping and
mining the National Government" This
utterance has the ring of the true metal

MIR. sHERMAN's PORTLAND SPEECH.


This effort does not please the Democrats,
for the reason that it lays bare the heresies,
inconsistencies, and disloyalty of that party
in its treatment of the leading political
questions of the country. In its financial
representations 1t presents no features be-
yond those which have marked his public
efforts since resumption became an accom-
plished fact, and which have been repeated
ly produced in these columns, and for that
reason we did not reproduce them yesterday
morning, 1t would have crowded out much
other interesting news matter, and to repro
duce his points and arguments would have
been a work of supererogati0n, for our read
ers have already been repeatedly served with
the same dish. The speech clearly presents
to the public mind the financial record of
the Republican party, showing that it has
been consistent, wise, and just, and produc-
tive of the happiest results to the general
prosperity of the country. lie dissected

light of reason and common sense. In all
this the Secretary Of the Treasury vindi-
Gates his mastery financial wisdom and
power, and secures the confidence of every
friend of sound government and honest
money in the country.
We notice that in certain Republican
quarters the effort, outside the Gnan-
cial question, is charged with "strll-
"ing its keynote on the stalwart pitch, ,"
and those who indulge in such criticisms
will learn in due time, if they do not un-
derstand it already, that the future Repub.

INFORMATION comes from private sources
that complete and reliable statements have
not been sent North regarding the spread
of yellow fever in the South during the
past month. Refugees from the afflicted
sections have already reached some of the
Virginia watering places, whose wild tales
regarding the contagion are, of course, ex-
aggerated, but are nevertheless sufficiently
succinct to prove that fear of disturbing
business affairs has had the effect in the re-
gion in and about Memphis to induce the
local authorities to suppress many alarming
facts regarding it. The National Board OF
Health should look into this matter.
