THE New York Tribune has this to say
about the alleged conspiracy in Maine: We
are sure the Republicans of Maine will act
with prudence and discretion in any exi-
gency in which they may be placed. Ii the
threatened fraud shall exhaust itself in the
silly vaporings of inconsiderate partisans,
and still more inconsiderate newspapers, the
effect may in the end be good. Should it
assume the more serious and menacing
shape of deliberate purpose of the Govern
or and Council lin which purpose we repeat
our disbelief), it will then devolve on the
Republicans Of Maine to see to it that the
fraud shall not be successful. Successful
once, its repetition would be attempted; and
if only once, its evil effects would be mo-
mentous and lasting.

NATIONAL THANKSGIVING.
PROCLAMATION.

AT no recurrence of the season which the devout
habit of religious people has made the occasion for
giving thanks to Almighty God and humbly invok-
ing his continued favor has the material prosperity
enjoved by our whole country been more conspicu-
ous more manifold or more universal. During the
past year, also, unbroked peace with all foreign ma
tons the general prevalence of domestic tranquli-
ty the supremacy and security of the great instt-
tions of civil and religious freedom, have gladdened
the hearts of people anl confirmed heir at
tachment to their government which wisdom and
courage of ancestors so fifty framed, and the
wisdom and courage of their descendants have so
firmly maintained to be the habtation of liberty
and justice to successive generations.
Now, therefore. L, Rutherford Hayes. President
of the United States. do appoint THURSDAY.
the 9th day of November instant, day of Ma
tional Thanksgiving and prayer and earnestly rec
ommend that. withdrawing themselves from ocular
and labors the people of the United States do
together that day in their respective places
of worship, there to give thanks and praise to Al
mighty God for his mercies, and to devouly beseech
their continuance.
In witness whereof l have hereunto set my hand
and caused the seal of the United States to be at
fix ed.
Done at the City of Washington, this third day of
November, in the year of our Lord, one thousand
eight hundred and seventy-nine. and of the Inde'
pendence of the United States of America, the
one hundred and fourth.

The Conspiracy.

information reaches the PRESS from
Augusta that the little nest of conspirators
of which Senator Pillsbury is the head, have
their arrangements all completed for grand
coup d'etdt on the seventeenth of this
month 1t is alleged that the votes have
already been counted and certificates made
ont to seventeen Democratic Senators and a
majority of Democratic Representatives.
But little is left to do but to send out these
certificates to the men whose names they bear.
When the Council meet on the seventeenth,
it is said they will go through the form of
deciding who is elected, though the decision
will have been already made up, and that
any protests on the part of the Republicans
will be treated very lightly.
1t is almost impossible to believe that the
gentlemen who compose the Council are
ready to perpetrale such a highhanded out
rage, but many well informed people believe
that such is the case. The sentiment of the
respectable Democrats all over the State, is
understood to beopposed to the programme,
but Mr.. Pillsbury seems to have firm hold
of the machine and to be working it to
suit his own purposes and those of little
ring oe Office holders who are afraid of losing
their bread and butter unless the Democrats
can seize the State government These
men feel that they have no future and
are ready for any scheme which promises to
put money in the shape Of official salaries in
to their pockets
1t is understood that the ground on which
Republican Senators and Representatives
are to be thrown out and their opponents
counted in is the existence of informalities
in the election returns, and that this resort
to technalities will be defended on ground
that it is necessary in order to do substan-
tial justice, as the Council are not permitted
to inquire into the bribery charges which
they profess to believe are well founded and
would unseat Republicans if they could be
examined
In spite of these accumulating proofs tha
party mean revolution and have laid their
plans to bring it about, we still believe that
the revolution intended will not be at
tempted. We believe that the able and hon
orable Democrats throughout the State re-
gard the scheme with contempt" Ito quote
the words of one of them as uttered to a
Bangor Commercial reporter), and that they
will make their opinions felt in such way
that the conspirators will be driven to aban-
don their designs.

Rev. HENRY A. WALES of Biddeford
seems to be martyr to his political convic-
tions. He accepted nomination for repre-
sentative to the legislature on the Green
back ticket and one of the results was (so
we infer from letter he has written to the
Hon. d. P. Stubbs of Iowa. that he was at
tackled with cholera morbus. Mr.. Wales
perhaps thinks that cholera morbus has been
used by the Republicans for purposes of in
timdation. He says that when he became
a Greenbacker many Of the Republican
members left his church, but his Sunday
evening lectures, which he modestly says
are most popular in the city, are winning
them back. Mr.. Wales should go an star
ring tour with Mr.. De La Matyr.

Encouraging the Young Man.


Last evening, after the performance was
over at the circus, young man called on
Chiarini and said he wanted to see him on pri-
vate business The old veteran took him into
his office and received him with his usua
politeness.
81 came up all the way from Carson to see
the show, and I'd like to join,' said the young
man.
"Oh! / see," said the circus man. "You are
well-formed, healthy looking young fellow,
and like to encourage such as you
The youths face frightened.
"You don't chew, smoke or drink, hope?'
"Oh, no, honor bright-except soda and
beer''
"You must leave off these bad habits. They
weaken the muscles and paralyze the nerves.
You can soon stop drinking, but your salary
will not be large until you have overcome
these tendencies. A little lemonade-circus
lemonade--is all the performers drink Call
at II o'clock tomorrow morning, and l will
see what can do. You mustn't expect over
$50 a week though, at first. We never pay
high salaries mntil we know just what man
can do"
The delighted Carsonite went away, and this
morning was on hand.
Chiarini took him to tent where three inn
mense Bengal tigers were Gagged. Handing
him currycomb and pair of sheers, he re-
marked:
Your duties will be comparatively light at
first. You will go into the cage and,curry the
tigers down every morning, and about once a
week cut their claws; keep 'em down pretty
short, so that when they attack the tiger tanner,
Mr.. Wilson, they won't lacerate him much.
Sometimes, but not more than once month,
you may have occasion to file their teeth. You
Just throw the animal on his back and hold his
head between your knees. If he acts rough

Haven't you got vacancy in the art de-
partment?" asked the young man from Carson
'Is art your line?' inquired Chiarini.
