REPUBLICAN NOMINATIONS.
FOR GOVERNOR.
DANIEL f. DAVIS
OF coRINTH.
PUBLICAN NOMINATIONS.
laundering All Around.

The campaign goes bravely on. The
greenbackers find it laundering all around
them. The republicans are marching on
in solid, united phalanx, gathering
strength with every passing hour, while
the greenback- democratic combination is
breaking to pieces in every county and al
most every town in the State.
Within the last twenty-four hours we
have received advices from many of the
counties in the State, which convince us
that the breaking up of the greenbackers
which we witness i'm Kenncbec county is
going on all around us. We are in the
midst of a genuine political cataclysm.
The waves of IN irresistible deluge are
sweeping the fllsionists to destruction
We present in our columns the state
ments of some whom the greenback-
ers have falsely claimed as belonging to
them. and of others who voted with
them last year but have abandoned
them forever and will vote the
republican ticket. We present names and
facts. We could still go on and give 9TH
er names and other facts, but the full story
will be told next Monday.
The combination of incongruous ele-
ments called the fusion party was doomed
to defeat from the start. 1t was impossi-
BILE that such an absurd union of opposites,
having only the hope of public Office and
plumber as the cohesive power could sue
coed in the face of honest, bold discus
sion before an intelligent people. But the
intestine strife of the leaders and the I'M
yelling Of their corrupt practices are aid
ing to bring about a more complete disco
luton of the combination than seemed
possible at the opening of the campaign.
Ii things continue as they have opened
this week Davis will have majority over
both his competitors of 10000 votes.

The Boston Traveller forcibly presents
some reasons for voting against biennial
sessions and elections as follows:
Names voters are TO decide on the day of
their election, whether they will have bien-
NAL elections, and corresponding sessions of
the legislature. They should vote against
both proposed changes, which are recon-
mendcd only by plutocrats, who constantly
are engaged in efforts to reduce the power of
the people. To maintain annual elections,
and TO hold annual sessions of the legsla-
ture. should be of the objects supported by
all friends of popular freedom.

haoLnp

TO the Editor Of the Journal:
1t has been announced through the green
back papers of this State that l. being dis
satisfied with the financial policy of the re-
publican party, have recently abandoned that
party and become an adherent of the green
back cause.
This statement most emphaticoUy DENY
| have never for one moment changed my
opinion as to the greenback heresy. | be-
leve it one of the greatest decisions of the
10Th century, destined 10 pass away like a
puff of smoke. 1t is true that very reluc-
family presided at greenback meeting, but
made no declaration of hostility to the re-
publican party. am working man, and
my sympathies are with the working men,
and did not know bnt the grcenback party
might in some way advance their interests
But when the cloven foot of the democratic
party appeared in the management of the
concern, again took nag position sqsareiy
ton fusion, greenback democratic party is
but the diminishing line of the democratic
party for 1880, and ! am opposed to it as
was in the dark and bloody days of Treason
and Rebellion.
Let me say to farmers, mechanics, and
others who are republicans, that we have been
negligent in not attending the caucuses of
our party, and the fault is with us if the
measures and leaders of the party are some
times not what we would like.

A PROTEST..

To the PUJiie:
In 1873 we acted and voted with the green
back party. We understood it to be party
of "rcform," opposed to and independent OF
both the old parties. All its newspapers and
public speakers SO declared, everywhere.
Where do we find it now? Sold ont or cap
tured by noted wire-pullers and political
guerrilas, and in close alliance with the old
Bourbon democracy of Estate rights, and re-
bclion memory. The late Greenback State
Convention at Portland was manipulated in
the interest of the democratic party. Its
platform was dictoted if not actually drafted,
by leading members of that party. SO very
like the democratic State platform is it, Gin
sentiment one can hardly discover the diff
erence. Report says thatthe Hon. F. &. But
Ter. President of the recent democratic coun-
ty convention at Pennington, declared in his
speech on that occasion, that there really was
no essential difference. Why should there
be, since the same men dictated or drafted
both? And what do we find in the several
counties? Bargain and sale, in other words
''truck-and-dicker," trading, and in this
(Franklin) county even more shameless and
undsgused than any bargain or trade be-
tween old horse-jockeys. We understand
that some of the democratic wing of the
coalition even openly boast of having secured
the best of the bargain viz four Of the most
important out of the six county nominations,
(Senator, Judge of Probate, County Com
missioner, and Register of Probate and that
the nominees have heretofore, for all their
lifetime, been among the most Jealous and
active of that party, and most of them large
recipients of official favor.
In view of these facts, well known to all,
and other considerations of grave national in
terest, that we need not enumerate here, we
deem it not only right, but duty, to enter, in
this public and open manner, our earnest pro-
test against this shameful coalition, Conferred
into simply and solely to secure the spells of
Office to certain hungry, ambitious politicians
and to wash our hands of any part or parcel
in the same. Neither now nor hereafter will
we kaoringiy give it aid or comfort in any
way whatever. 1t may be possible for I'M
scrupulods leaders to sell us, but not so easy
for them to deiirey the 0OOds.

Governor Garcelon is as much opposed
to the national banks as any greenbacker.
The Boston Herald reports him as saying
in his speech at Portland:
The only practical part of the financial
question is the question of national banks.
1t is a question of the utmost importance.
You can save the interest on s 1898, 0O0, 900.
The banks of the country, with capital of
S466 900 900 draw interest on the enormous
sum of 81 1913 100000 We democrats say
that we can abolish this system. The only
harm will be that it will stop those men from
drawing interest on four dollars for every dol
lar they own.
1t will be seen that the Governor agrees
with Solon Chase in misrepresenting the
national banks

substantially correct" is it. Mr.. Cove:
Another remarkable statement to whichyou
have subscribed is that Gov. Garcelon by his
veto of the Legislative pay roll saved the State
nearly serea thousand doiioJs Now, as the
whole amount oftravel rcckoned on the dou-
Bile mileage basis amounts to less than $1,000,
and as the Governors veto only reduced it
one half, the saving cannot, by any distortion
of figures, be shown to be over $1,000, 1t

to your idea, nearly serea Thousand as.

say was ''carefuiiy prepared from the records

present administration will be *2G7, 700.

church deacon you should have better re-

But enough has been said to show the utter

and disgraceful position in which Secretary
Cove has placed himself. The people will
not be slow to condemn socauseless an abasc-

himself that he was elected to high position

tocracy Of sex is dying under a vigorous
protest for continued existenCei yet it
has got to die, and If it would but die
peacefully, 1t would be better for all
concerned. But perhaps this is expect
ing too much. Once a fond spouse was
watching her husbands throes in the
hour of dissolution, and she ventured to
say to him, "WelI, my dear, il you are
dying, don't kick around so and wear
out the Sheets" It isn't in the nature
Of man to die without a struggle, and
what is true of humanity's natural de-
sire for continued existence is equally
true Of every human attribute. The do
nestle insOrrection that is now going
on, which has its origin in a natural
protest against the usurpatiOu Of mas
culine power over expanding feminine
intelligence, is destined to increase till
its cause ceases. Women will not longer
rebel when their inalienable right to
life, liberty and the pursuit Of happiness
is no longer disputed. The war with
Great Britain was over as soon as mems
Independence was acknowledged. The
domestic war that is now going on will
cease as soon as the independent indi.
viduality of wifehood is universally de-
clared. Where love and liberty dwell
there alone is happiness and peace.
