The Frauds i'm Maine-The National
Committees Address.

The National Democratic Committee
has issued the following statement rel
alive to the election in Maine:
HEADQrRs NATL DEMOCRATIC COMMITTEE, I
New YORK, Sept. Il, 1880. (
The latest reliable and Official returns re-
ceiyed from Maine are follows: Returns
from 423 towns give Plaisted 10,Ul9; Davis, TO-
69s; Republican majority, SO. In the same
Republican, ~ 765; Republican majority, Is
265; Republican loss in 1850 from the CORE
spending election in 1876, 14,5S7. There are 50
towns and plantations yet to be heard from.
The relative gain in these towns as compared
with 1876 would give US, at n low estimate,
over LODI Democratic majority. The Repub-
lican manipulators in Maine are pretending to
claim majority for Davis, and are undoubt-
eddy trying to doctor returns to bear out
they propose to begin in Maine to yeinaugu-
rate the frauds of lS76. For two days Blaine and
Republican leaders conceded Plaisted's cleo
ton, as the Republican party did Tildens in
1876. The entire machinery for counting the
vote Is in the hands of a Repulican Returning
CURED about two days to ascertain definite
results in Maine This year all first returns
showed great Democratic gains, and it was
stopped returns coming in and delayed
them until they could be altered that

leader that returns are kept back for manip-
uation. Two of the five Congressmen-Murch
and Ladd-are conceded. Philbrck. Demo-
cratic candidate in Braine's district tthe
Third, while actually elected, may be counted
out by fraud by very small maiority-under
one hundred. In the First District, Anderson,
Democratic candidate, is practically I'm the
same position. rs the Republicans only
claim a majority for Reed of S3-thus show
ing that out of five Congressmen four DEM
Gratis were elected. This is the best criterion
by which to judge the popular sentiment of
the state. Plaisted is clearly elected, and can
only be defeated by fraudulent count. The
only gains shown by the Republican party. or
claimed by them. are in Democratic counties,
inaccessible by telegraph and away from lines
of railways. Thebest evidence of fraud pro-
posed to be perpetrated is the fact that while
the Fusion ticket shows large gains all over
the State in Republican cities and counties.

A Case without Parallel.

In many of the States the criminal
laws permit defendants to testify, II
they desire to do so, and there have
been numerous cases in which the ac-
cused have been found guilty on their
own testimony. We have never heard,
however, that criminal, on his way to
the scaffold, found consolation in the
reflection that he has been convicted
out of his own mouth.
General Garfield and his party are
being reduced to ruin by the evidence
which he and his friends have furnished.
1t is the defendant testifying in his own
case. No Democratic campaign lies"
no calumny, no SANDER, no cruel accu-
sations are brought against General
Garfield. The Democratic editor or
speaker opens the official records OF
Congress, or turns to Republican jour
mails of the highest responsibility, and
therein finds not only the charges, all
and severally, that are preferred
against General Garfield, but the most
conclusive proof of each and every
charge. .....
1t IS not strange that the managers Of
the Republican case lose their temper
under such unprecedented and unheard
of circumstances. They can find no
guide in history. no light in experience.
no parallel in ancient or modern times,
for no party was ever thus placed.
1t has never happened before that n
party has selected n Presidential candi-
date convicted. on his own admission,
of having committed, as q member OF
Congress, an offense punishable with
Imprisonment for term Of years and o.
fine of $4,000.

The Republican papers are ex-
ulting over the Vermont returns as if
they brought something more than the

1t is now in order for them to explain

than there is in $4,000 Democratic ma
jority in Arkansas.

A grindstone weighing two tons and half and running at the rate of two hundred and fifty revolutions 8 minute, burst into five large pieces at the shop of the Spring Perch Company in John street, Bridgeport, Satur- day, few minutes before 12o'clock. Patrick Corcoran stood in front of it at the time, grinding spring plates, but by marvelously good fortune WAS not struck by any of the flying masses of stone. The box over which he was bending, however. was thrown out with great violence by the force of the explo- sion, and striking Corcoran in the body knocked him clear across the shop, a distance of nearly thirty feet. When found there by his fellow workmen he was insensible, but re- covered consciousness in few minutes doctor was called and it was found that he had received no injuries except fractured rib and few bruises. The accident resulted in no injury to any of the other workmen. One of the fragments of the bursted stone was thrown out upon the floor, about fifteen feet away. Another mass, weighing about half ton, was thrown of diagonally and struck the wall near the roof, twisting thick piece of shafting which it encountered on the way, and tearing out 8 portion of the brick work. The other fragments were not thrown out from ths trench in which about half the stone was set. This is the second accident of the kind that has occurred at this shop this winter.
