Nhen they saw whore the carriage

The next morning Cinderella went
out with the ducks and found the old
woman, who said to her:

Evidence Of a Conspiracy to
COunt-out the Republicans by
Fusion Managers before the
Election.

The Boston Journal of last evening had
long article in relation to evidence recently
found to prove that the Contingent Con-
spiracy was begun before our election. The
revelation comes from printer who worked
in the Calais Times Office previous to the
election. and came about through c. C. Mil
lar, engineer of the printing establishment
of Messrs. A. Nudge & Son in Boston. The
man who discloses these things is a man of
about thirty years of age and native Of New
Brunswick. He was brought into the presence
of repre- sentative of the Boston Journal
who makes the following statement:
Mr.. Charles r. Whdden, Jr., of Calais, the
editor of the Calais Times, appears TO have
been the party chiefly employed in the matter.
and the person from whom this printer got
the most of the information. The principal
consultations occurred in the private office
where the man was at work. His knowledge
of the matter came in connection with the
printing of some blanks which were sent out
by the plotters to their agents. OF the pre-
else nature of these circulars our informant
could get no clue. Indeed, it was only by
assuming that another man did this circular
work that the fact that such papers were pre-
pared was ascertained. The remark that
another man did the work threw this printer
off his guard, and he said: ''He did no cir
cular work. they couldn't trust him. did
that work. But no clue as to the charac-
ter of these circulars could be drawn from
him, beyond remark that they were designed
to put certain democratic local managers in
the State on their guard to look out for tech
nical flaws and perhaps to return republican
votes in so faulty manner that they could
be counted out.
At one meeting eight persons were present,
five of whom were from Eastern Maine, and
one representative each from Portland, Ban
gor and Androscoggin county. At that meet
ing the plan was discussed. The Fusionists
were to carry the State-if not bv votes by
contingent. The chief pai,y in this work
was +. +. Pillsbury and he was to be reward
ed by an election to the United States Senate
to succeed Mr.. Hamlin. TWAS assumed that
if the Fusionists could get control of the Leg
islature which meets January next, they could
get control of that which meets a year later
and also secure the Electoral vote of Maine
for the democratic candidate, who will be Mr..
Tilden. 'sYou don't mean to say that Mr..
Tilden knew anything of this matter or was
talked of in this connections" TO this the
printer made no reply, but soon after re-
marked in general manner respecting the
Maine plot that ''those who have the impress
sion that nobody is interested in it outside of
Maine are laboring under a great delusiOn.

ton and was so talked by all those who came

Ex-Governor Dinglcy's Address at
the Lewiston Indignation Meet

We are here tonight for the purpose of ex-
pressing our condemnation of the action of
the Governor and Council of Maine, in their
capacity as canvassers of returns. whereby
the verdict of the people at the polls at the
last annual election, has been deliberately re-
versed. 1t is important therefore, to have .
clear understanding of the law and facts,
Frst,-It is conceded by all parties that on
the 9Th of Sept, at a fair, free and fully at
tended election. the republicans elected by
not far from 5000 majority Legislature
having seven republican majority in the SEN
ate and twenty-nine in the House. 1t is con-
coded that the vote as declared, recorded and
returned to the office of the Secretary of
State, without dissent from any quarter,
showed this result
.Seeond,-The Governor and Council, who
are all politically opposed to the republicans,
have canvassed these returns, and have issued
certificates so as to make a Senate with nine
and a House with seventeen democratic and
greenback DIETER known as fusion) majority,
and have issued no certificates to twelve re-
publican representatives from the large cities
of Lewiston, Portland. Saco, Bath and Rock
land. The excuse for this amazing result, as
officially announced over the signature of the
Governor, is that in strictly applying the con-
stitution and laws, regulating the canvassing
of legislative returns, they have found so large
a number fatally defective" that the count
ing only ofreturns legally made, has given
this remarkable result. And it is added, that
if injustice has been done in any direction,
the two houses as constituted by the Govern
or and Council can apply a remedy.
ask you to look at this excuse in the light
of the law and the facts.
!. Hisbefiered the fusion returns at ritai
points pere sarreptifiousty corrected. Is it
not incredible that fatal defects in original
returns as made out by five hundred sets of
municipal officers, should have been so NICE
ly adjusted as to count out eight republicans
from the Senate and twenty-nine from the
House; and not single fMsionist from
either Houses have aided in canvassing the
legislative vote of this State twice, when l
