FEED ALIITLE Corn MEAL.-lt's nom
sense TO say it makes no difference what
you feed your milk cow. The quality
OF the milk, cream and butter depends
very much upon the feed used. A little
experience of Our own may be worth
relating In evidence of the statement.
During the winter and early spring we
had been giving u grade Jersey COW
a mixture Ct meal and mlddlings, but
when we put her in green pasture, we
thought W. might safely discontinue
the ration ofmeal, and accordingly only
fed a few quarts at milking time. Mrs.
X. soon began to wonder what was the
matter with the cream, it was so thin
compared with its former state. She
became anxious about her "Lil," and
wondered if she wasn'tsick but her fat.
sleek sides and cOntented look said ''no"
to that. After an experience of about
two weeks with the bran diet, we re-
turned 70 the corn meal mixture, and
on the very next day a change in the
cream was clearly perceptible. 1t now

cream crooks fills rapidly, so that

are satisfied that it pays to feed corn
meal both summer and winter.

DEMOCRATIC STATE
TEE.
An Important Meeting at the
Falmouth Hotel.
THE DEMOCRATS TO SECURE FROM TIKI
GREEsBACKERs A LARGE PROPORTION on
REPRESENTATIVE NOMINATIONS

A meeting Of Governor Garcelon, Adjutan,
General Leavitt, and the members of the dem.
ocratic State Committee was held at the Fal.
mouth Hotel Monday evening, in order to &c,
at the views of the majority in regard to the
present campaign.
We are informed that the committee decid-
ed the campaign must be severely aggressive.
The principle, "Anything to beat the repub-
lican party" is good thing once in while,
but there is possibility of going too far, and
by union with greenbackers wiping out the
democratic party. As the matter stands at
present. there was a feeling that the cam.
paign was a fight between the greenbackcrs
and republicans. Great dissatisfaction was
expressed all over the State by the democrats
opposed to utilization with the greenbackers
because of the apparent surrender of party
Some of the hard shells openly stated that il
the republicans had put up some man for
Governor widely known they would have vot.
ed for him unhesitatingly, and as it was, UNI
less something was done, they did not know
but they should stomach Davis. They had
eaten crow once when Greeley was given
them and they could do it again, even to see
the republicans victorious, rather than longer
submit to being the bob of kite for which
they had the most supreme contempt
The committee decided therefore to appoint
committees to invite prominent speakers to
take hold at once and draw all the party into
harmonious action, both hard money and soft
money if possible. 1t understood that among
the speakers will be Messrs Thurman Herman
and Voorhees,. The latter's soft money views,
it was thought, would appeal to the soft money
democrats. 1t was decided that Penobscot
must not show such complete sell out of the
party another year. and it was calculated that
at least 10000 votes could be polled in the
State by the party with proper engineering
this September.
As far as DIR. Garcelon was concerned il
was thought that after all the governor ought
to draw his full party vote. Notwithstanding
the disappointment of many Office seekers the
governor had done about as well as could have
been expected from man who was attempt
ing to ride two horses, and besides it was to
be remembered that he accepted nomination
when nobody believed he could be elected,
and was therefore entitled to the heartiest
support for a reelection.
II is stated the committee decided that in
the town elections the coming fall if the DEM
ocrats and greenbackers united on representa-
tive nominations the democrats must have a
larger proportion. Itwoud be better to surren-
der majority of the State Offices to the green
backers--in case of success-and have a ma
jority of the party in the legislature next win
ter in order to advance the party's ideas. II
is possible, however, this may be only willy
democratic game to get the representatives
and Offices too provided their side wins.

A WISE LEGISLATOR.

He is successful because he has the manly
courage to rise above all personal motives or
interests and cast his vote and influence on
the side of measures which will contribute
to the well-being of his fellow men. The
good of the many, even though it proves in
furious to the interests of the few, is the
maxim of the wise legislator. But certain
men will never admit the wisdom of this doc

ROUSING MEETING AT WIN
THROP.
The Republicans Wide-AwalSe
Coon SPEAKING AND MucH ENTHUSIASM.

There was large and enthusiastic repub-
ican rally at Winthrop. Tuesday evening,
the 10Th inst. No particular exertion was
made to get out the people, but so great was
the deep feeling in republcanism that the
Town Hall was crowded to overlooking.
The speaker, Herbert NJ. Heath, more than
met he expectations ofthe people and excclled
his reputation as a first-class stump orator.
The financial question was taken up point
by point and clearly handled, statistics being
produced to back up every argument. The
inconsistency of the fusion of democrats and
greenbackers was shownup whereby the greer
hackers at the instigation of the democratic
State committee at Portland abandoned their
original principles of last year, to satisfy in
part the democrats and to effect halfway
compromise between the hard-money democ-
racy and soft-money greenback platforms of
last year. The trade whereby Pillsbury was
to be Senator next year and Smith Governor
this year. was clearly exposed The doings
of Congress were slightly touched upon.
The speech was about one hour and halt
enthusiastically pplaudcd-sometimes the
widest of applause being given him. Judge
Hopkins, of Illinois, being present in the au-
dence was called for and spoke for about 20
minutes in a western and imprisoned man
ner. He said the real issue was between the
republicans and the old enemy, the democratic
party. The issue of grecnbackism is a dead
issue as evinced by the greenback platform at
Portland They had fought the green
hackers in Illinois and come off at last Veto
rious. The greenback party was a side show
The republicans ought TO be ashamed of de-
sorting their party and assisting the democrats
under the delusve name of greenbackism.
The democrats in Congress had revived the
old issues, and were attempting to get power
by ballot-box stuffing. and intimidation of
voters at the South and by fraud in New York.
The old issues are not obsolete until every
man could express his sentiments in every
State and county in the United States, and
vote unmolested.
At the close of the meeting a republican
campaign club was formed, with about one
hundred signatures, the President having
been a democrat for several years. The fol-
lowing officers were elected:
c. A. Cochrane. President; l.. p. Moody,
J. II. Nelson. Amos Wheeler, Vice Presi-
dents; b. G. Jersey, Secretary; A. G. ".

Death-Bed Repentance.

The democratic State committee. find
ing that the party was getting beyond their
leadership and control. the best part OF it
going with the republicans in support of
honest money and Mr.. Davis, held meet
ing at Portland the other evening to con-
slider the alarming state of affairs. The
result was that il was considered advisa-
BILE to try cancellation and fair promises to
bring back those democrats who have al
ready enlisted and are intending to enlist
in the honest money party. There has
come change over this same committee
since they met in Portland, when the green
back convention assembled there, and
traded out their party to the rag-baby
men. They supposed then they could de-
liver the goods, hand over their party to
the greenbackers rs Il trader can deliver,
coal, wood, cotton, or boots and shoes to
customers, but they appear to have sudden
" learned that there are democrats, and
a large number of them too, who cannot
be traded off like cattle or merchandise by
the democratic fusionists.
But repentance comes too late. Honest
money democrats, who have felt outraged
at the base abandonment of principles by
their party and the attempted sale of them
selves to another party which they despise,
cannot be turned from the course which
they have marked out for themselves by
this death-bed repentance of their leaders.
They will adhere to the advice of the Ar
gus and Standard and act with those in the
election who think as they do upon the
money question-that is, with the republic
cans.
II is too late to repent now. The die is
cast. The meeting of the democratic
State committee will amount to nothing
except to show in what desperate strait
the opponents of Davis are and increase
the stampede of honest democrats from the
combination concern. The shameless
trafilckers will learn lesson in Septem-
Der that they will not very soon forget.
