Maine COngressmen on the Demo-
cratic Count.

The result OF the count in Maine was sub
ject of general discussion about the Capitol to-
day. Senator Blaine is still absent. and some
of his friends say he will not come to Washing
ton until after the holidays. Senator Hamlfn
does not believe the legislature of Maine will
make any change in the mode of choosing pres
idential electors unless the New York Iegisla-
ture should set the example He added signifi-
cantly that he ''doeS not believe that the New
York legislature will try anything of the kind
nOac, emphasizing the now very distinctly. He
regards the official count as fraudulent and de-
nOunces it in the most vigorous language.
Congressman Frye, of Maine, says that in a
political sense he is glad Of it, that it viii react
to the advantage of the republicans, and that
next year the republicans will see to it that
there will be not even technical grounds upon
which they can be counted out.
Congressman Reed says that the republicans
are powerleSs to correct the abuse; that all they
can do is to submit to IT.; that the fusIonists
have legal quorum of their own, and that even
II the republicans attempted to set up dual
legislature that they would not have quorum.
Congressman Murch (greenbacker) says that
Gov. Garcelon acted in accordance with law,
and that an investigation will be instituted by
the legislature, which will demonstrate that the
republicans intimidated and bull-dozed voters
in the state.
