Questionable features of the act of 1878.
1t is singular that while there is much ex.
element in England, France and Germany
with regard to American competition in
supplying the home markets with animal
food, there is a positive decrease in the
number of cattle in most of the European
States; so that the ability OF America to
make good the deficiency ought to be ac-
cepted as blessing and not a misfortune.
There is, however, nothing surprising 10
this falling of, even to the superficial OBJ
server, as far as Great Britain is contern-
ed. Ireland, as is we'll known, has been
turned into one vast pasturage. Denmark
derives most of its revenues from feeding
bullocks for the English market, while
France, Germany, Spain, Hungary have al

The republican papers are greatly ex-
ercised over Maine, The prospect for re-
publican success is far from being certain
and there is whine all along the line.
Sherman's trip seems to have lessened the
chances Of success greatly, and one or two
republican papers do not hesitate to ad-
NIT that the party would be stronger by
many hundred votes had the secretary re-
NAMED at Washington. What alarms re-
publicans is the determination of the peo-
pie to discuss other issues. If Maine
goes against republicanism this year, its
effect on the fall elections cannot be under.

One thing is evident,-the stalwart leaders
regard Maine as doubtful and the mild edi

at least one aspirant for the Republican
nomination for the presidency. However
much the modern Adonis may wish to
obliterate the scene at Narragansett Pier,

for the coveted executive position but it
will fall short Of realization. Roscoe Conk-

the distance heightened, and when Gov.

A Part of the Republican Machine.


The republicans appear to have cap
tured the greenback state convention OF
Iowa, The report says that the Pomeroy
wing controlled the convention, which is
equivalent to saying that enough republi-
can money was used to secure the adop-
ton of the Pomeronian plan of club or
ganization-which means a division of the
Democratic vote wherever possible. The
real object of these Pomeroy clubs ought
to be well known to Democrats by this
time, and should be stunned as fully as
an alliance with the republican party.
There is no difference except in name, for
the only object Pomeroy and his principal
henchmen have is to do the bidding of their
masters, the Republican national commit
tee, 10 whose employ they are, and under
whose direction they do their work. No
matter how thoroughly in favor of the
greenback policy Democrat may be, be
cannot afford to Join q so-called third
party at this time, for, however much be
