Daily Republican., 1879-09-09

THOUGH IT is not definitely known
whether the Republicans have elected
Davis, their candidate Governor,by the
popular vote, enough is known to show
that the State is as thoroughly Repub-
lican now as it ever was and is sure to
throw her vote in with the solid north
in 1880.
It is impossible to forecast the effect
which the Maine election will have on
those that are to follow it, until more
complete analysis of the vote can be
made. 1t cannot fail to be demoraliz-
ing to the Democracy, who have surren
dered everything and gained nothing,
not even a Republican defeat. AS to
the Green back party, its accessions this
year are large, its achievements more
striking than those Of last year. What
ever it may do elsewhere, 1t has prac
tically swallowed the Democratic party
Of Maine.

In that case there would Of course be
no election, when by virtue of the con-
stitution the President of the Senate
would become President, and that offic-
which will be filed by q. Democrat Of
course there would for the time be a
Democratic President. The Democrats
can no. therefore gain anything by hav'
ing the election thrown into the House,
depending merely upon De La Matyr's
vote, while the Republicans can profit
bv the accession Of the vote Of single
member. This will pat an end to all
Democratic plans for running third
candidate merely to throw the election
into the House. If the simplest act Of
justice was done by the House Of Rep,
r .sentatives, Hull of Florida, would be
in the pepitentiary instead of in Con-
gress, and Bsbee the Republican, who
the Democratic Supreme Court Of Flor
ida says was truly and honestly elect
cd, would be occupying his seat, but
when 80 much is at stake nothing that
looks like Justice eau be expected from
the present Congress. 1t is consola-
tion to know however that solid Re.
publican North now putting on hel
boxing gloves will make all thing
come right in 1888. There will be nj
occas on to count State delegations il
Congress to see how they stand, tn,
people themselves will settle the mat
ter.

The INDUSTRIOUS and reliable repor-

. lively little jaunt around the city,
visiting the various manufacturing es-
Adjustments to find out the state OF
trade, and the prospects for thu future
The results of their labor are fully Civ
Oh in another column which If careful ly
read will show that while in some de-
partments OF trade orders havs been
turnei away, others are full, and stiIl
" tn others orders are gradually in
creasipg. In no instance was there any
COMP aint of dull prospect for the fu
ture, but on the contrary all looked
for ward with che.rfulnsss aud conf
dence to rapidly returning prosperity.
Tn. machine shops, iron ship building
establis hmsnts, and iron manufactures
in g.neral are running with full com-
p ements Of hands, some Of them run
ming overtime. Artisans, tradesmen
and laboreis who really want work are
employed and generally those who make
a cry of hard times are those who do
not want work. Taking every thing
as our reporters found it, the business
outlook is indeed encouraging. The
resumption policy, tbs result of Repub-
lican legislation, has brought with it a
resumption of busin ess which has set
all the manufactures OF Wilmington in
rapid motion. The business skies are
auspiciously bright. Let US all re-

a.. s.,y.'s p. wsr Nippsa.

The California election has . very
important bearing upon the next Presi-
election il by any means itshoald
be thrown into the House Of Repressn-
tstives. In securing the whole Of the
Congressman in that State the Republi-
can party has gained a most important
triumph, as they have q majority In
nineteen Of the thirty-eight State dele
cations in Congress. The Democrats
have a majority in eighteen State dele
cations, and in the remaining state
Indiana, the delegation is compos d OF
six Republicans, six Democrats and one
arsenbacker, De La Matyr. Should the
latter vote with the Democrats, which
he would be very likely to do, he would
simply tie the House, in case the cleo
ton for President Is thrswn into the
House which OF course could secure no
election. If he votes with the Repub
li,ans he gives that party majority OF
one, Each Stat. casts one vote, and q
majority of all the States is necessary
for an election. 1t will bs seen from
the foregoing then how important is the
California election - the Republicans.
Had they not carried the State, De La Ma
tyr would have had il in his power to
have elected Democratic President had
he WISHED tn do so, but now the position
is just the reverse and De La Matyr has
it in his power to elect q Republican
Prsside ent if he wishes to do so. While
however De La Matyr cannot elect
President by his direct vote he still has
it In his power to indirectly seat
Democratic President by voting with
the Democrats and making 1t tie in
the House.

E.1orce sn. EIect.on laws.

As it has been fully determined to
prosecute the parties who have so
shamefully violated the election laws
last week, it is hoped there will be n"
compromises made, but that the la"
will be enforced to the fullest extent.
Never before we're the election laws 30
shamefully violated as at the recent
election, and never we're the Rspubli-
cans and friends Of law and order in a
better condition for enforcing the law
than now. OF course We may expect
that number OF trivial offeuces will
be trumped up against the Republican,
for illegal voting to break the force OF
the heavy and direct charges made
against the Democrats, and which can
be SO positively proven, but this should
not deter the Republicans from testing
the law to see whether it is worth any
thing or not, and also to test the law
oflcers and zee whether they are hon.
est or not. II there are any of Repub.
lican proclivities who have been so
foolish as to have voted illegally, let
them suffer the consequences equally
with the Democratic roupders, repeat
srs and dishonest policemen and cleo
ton inspectors that brought disgrace
upon themselves and the city last
Tuesday. II there have been any
frauds committed by Republicans the
organization is not party to it, but aa
a party their hands are clean, and We
are informed that there are no com
promises to be made this time. The
lscklsss Republican, therefore, who in
order to Offset Democratic frauds cast
an illegal vote, has committed a great
mistake, the consequences Of which
must fall upon his own head. The man
who casts an illegal ballot should b.
prosecuted, no matter what party he
belongs to.
The difficulty heretofore has been,
that both parties were more or less i'm
plicated and hence compromises wer,
made and the cases quashed bef'r,
they ever came to trial. Nothing @
that kind should be encouraged now
A winking at violation Of the law il
times past has impaired toldnsss Il
election law breakers to such an exten
that thsysxpect at every electi N to vic
late the law with the most reckless i'm
punity, so much so that it is humilia
ting to think OF the miserable farce
which the city election last week wa
reduced. Property holders, the soli'
men of the city, who have been payini
heavy taxes for half a century and VIII
scarcely ever fail to vote for what tbey
conceive to be the best interests Of tb,
city, now 90 to the polls only to se'
their vote offset by some rounder or re
peater that has no right to vote at all ,anc
has probably voted at most Of the polls il
our city; and these FOUNDERS be it un-
derstood were trundled around from pol
to poll in coaches, and in charge of po
licemen who were assisting them t
vote. AL! good citizens will be gratifi-'
at tue movement that is made as
must if our laws are worth anything
and our law officers are honest, resul
in a punishment of the guilty AMI
protection to honesty hereafter. LIE
the prosecutions 60 on and lot all go,
citizens, whether Republican or D 'mo
crat, help on The good work. Let jus
tice be done for once no matter wher
the stroke falls.

For the Vermont Waterman
Fall Feeding OF Moving Lands.

All farmers in Vermont realize the great
necessity of grass crop. When they fail
in that one of the greatest products OF our
farms has failed. Can we afford TO let our
cattle and horses travel over our fields and
get the second crop Of grass Our new
stocked lands are soft, the grass roots tender,
cattle pull up large quantities, and destroy
a large amount by constant travelling, leav.
ing the remaining roots exposed to early
freezing, and the result is poor catch OF
grass and half crop of hay. My expert
ence is that land will last longer, with an
average of one-third more hay per acre, to
leave the aftermath unmolested, making
top dressing for your whole meadow, the
roots all in their natural form and protected
from early freezing, which causes winter
killing. We can easily supply green fodder
to take the place of it, at small cost COM
pared with the amount of damage done
We can get from four TO six tons OF feed
per acre after an early crop Of grass, giving
two crops in one season by using dry loan
or muck in the barn cellar The manure
heap can thus be largely increased, making
the farm in still better condition. At the
present prices, farmers must get the greatesi
possible profit from their farms to leave any
margin after necessary expenses. One trial
is sure to induce every observing farmer to
do away with the old method of fall feeding.
