From the Lewiston Gazette (Dem.)
The Greenback Congressional
Nomination.

II the democrats of the Second Congress
sional District had any doubt as to the best
and most expedient course tOpursue with re-
gard to their approaching Congressional nom
nation, the action of the greenback conven-
ton at Auburn yesterday quickly and per-
manently rspoved it. BY the nomination of
ex-Counciilor Fogg, the greenbackers, or
more strictly speaking, the Fogg clique of
greenbackers, have effectually prevented any
chance of union of the opposition forces in
this district against the republican candidate
for Congress.
1t would not be necessary, even if they
were less clearly obvious than they are, to
detail all the reasons which make demo-
cratic endorsement of yesterdays nomina-
ton an utter impossibility. Certainly it is
not necessary to urge democratic objections
which exist against candidate whose nomi-
nation, if we are to believe the greenbackers
themselves, was obtained by the most ques-
tionable of methods, and must inevitably
drive, as they state, hundreds of greenback-
ers from voting for him.
The widespread and notorious dissatisfac-
ton with Mr.. Fogg existing in his own par
~. and particularly in this county, is of no
recent date. He, and he alone is held by
them responsible for the defeat of the county
ticket in the last election, and the motives of
his action at that important crisis have never
been satisfactorily explained to them. The
strenuous endcavor he has since made to re-
gain his lost position in their estimation is
doubtless the key to the extraordinary exhibit
ton he has since made of himself. But this
overriding of his part has not had the desired
effect: the settled conviction in the green
back mind, of Androscoggin county especial
". that he is not to be trusted. has not been
shaken, and the underhand and tricky way in
which, as they openly allege, he packed the
convention yesterday in his favor, has only
tended to fan their feeling of suspicion into
bitter and undisguised hostility.
Under these circumstances, if for no other
reasons, for Mr.. Fogg's friends to comfort
themselves with the expectation of demo-
cratic endorsement is to cherish vain hope
indeed. If Mr.. Fogg relies, as he seems to
do, upon an alleged necessity of democrat
ic endorsement of his action at Augusta, he
is basing his reliance upon assumptions that
exist only in his own imagination. The de-
mocracy ofthe Second District, we take it, feel
under no imperative obligation to ''yndicate''
ex-Councillor Fogg, supposing him to be in
need of "vindication,' by endorsing his NOM
ination for Congress. Even if he had come
by this nomination in more justifable way
than his party associates admit. the democra-
CIV Of this District, We conceive, does not
live, move and have its being this year for
the special purpose of ''vindicating' ex-
| Councillor Fogg or ex-Councillor ANYBODY
else. We have no wish TO antagonize the
greenback nominee. We don't deem it worth
the while. but We simply state the situation
| in az plain terms as it seems to US the occa-
sion demands.

The New York Times Again.

The New York Times has lately devoted
most of its efforts to help the democracy to
attempt to injure Senator Blaine. One Of its
latest attempts is that of its Washington cor
respondent, who says that George. who pro-
poses to prove that the Texas Pacific Rail-
road charter was obtained by fraud, intimates
that Senator Blaine is implicated in the mat
ter. No other paper has picked up the scan
dal and there is general belief that the
story was gotten up at the present time to
injure the Maine Senator at Chicago. OF
these insinuations. the New York Evening
Post, which cannot be accused of being a
Blaine organ, says:
at looks very much as if the attempt to
implicate him in the alleged Texas and Pa
cific Railroad bribery was partisan contriv-
ance. How is it that Mr.. George has been
able to control his virtuous indignation for so
many wears and allows it to break out at just
the right time before the meeting of the Chi
csyo Convention? How is it. if his motive
was mere concern for the public welfare, that
he vas not content to put the Committee OH
PScific Railroads in possession of his alleged
facts to be used for public purpose. instead
of making haste to send them by telegraph
Ali over the country? The chairman of the
committee makes it plain that the report
publishcd must have come from Mr.. George.
The career Of Mr.. Blaine is proper subject
Of Investigation. and certain parts Of it are
sure to be sharply criticised before he is NOM
mated. But suspicious stories such - this
Of Mr.. George should be received with eau

The New Bishops.

The four new Methodist bishops all wear
white neckties. high silk hats, and no nous
taches Bishop Warren is tall, slim, has
brown hair and whiskers of the same color,
trimmed to a point under the chin. His eyes
are brown with a blueish tendency, there is
nothing remarkable in their expression. and
his nose is rather prominent. In walking,
he buttons up his dress-coat and takes long
steps.
Bishop Foss is tall, thin. dignifed, and
near view shows him to be really gOod-l0Ok-
ing. His forehead is square and high, his
ewes very dark, and his hair irOn-grav, as are
his whiskers, which extend under his chin.
His nose is Roman. He has the air OF an
educator, the manners of gentleman. and
is endow ed with considerable personal mag
netism.
Bishop Hurst has strong face, large, lus-
trous eyes, Grecian nose, Over-archlng eye
brows, and high, rounding forehead. His
hair is rather thin, inclined to be sandy, and
generally looks as if he had just run his
hands through it. His only facial adOrnment
is small goatee. He stOops little in the
shoulders and holds his head forward, giving
the chin a slight upward inclination. He
wears Prince Albert coat closely buttoned
and looks like man of distinction. Bishop
Hurst is not more than five feet five or six
inches in height, and is so slim that it is
doubtful if he weighs more than 100 pounds.
He has a sharp, protruding nose, small
mouth and rather unmarked features gener-
ally. He is getting bald and his hair is al
most white, which, with his benevolent ex-
preston, makes him look venerable.

The greenbackers of the second con-
eresaonal district have swallowed an un-
considerable filthy dose in the nomination
Of F. N. Fogg as candidate for Con-
yess. Mr.. Fogg represents in his own
person the Garcelonian attempt to steal
the State, also communism, free-lovism
and Kearneyism. In his speech accept
ing the nomination he spoke of trying bull
lets if bayonets would not answer the pur-
poses of his party. and made the hall sui
phurous with the denuDcfation and dam
nation he dealt upon those who oppose
his crazy notions. Mr.. Fogg will be about
as dead a candidate after tie election as
this State has seen for some time. The
Lewiston Gazette gives him notice (see
another column) Of the fa.e he may ex-
pect. In its article on the proceedings
of the convention the Gazette also says
The general opinion among the green
.backers OF this section seems to be that
their present nominee has forced himself
Into the party by means of packed con-
..yention. Indeed, several Of the most
prominent and influential men OF the
party have gone so far as to threaten to
work for his defea. by every fair means
'.in their power. This nomination, they
Say, savors too strongly Of free love and
communism to meet the approval Of the
..better class of greenbackers.

cures the nomination of Grant at Chicago.
There are apparent successes which in
the end prove to be defeats. Napoleon's
march to Moscow was such. When he
entered the city with his conquering le
gions he thought Russia was in his power.
A few days afterwards he realized that he
had sacrificed one OF the finest armies ever
raised in France to his ambition and that
his presence was needed at Paris to retain
his control over the French kingdom. His
imagined triumph proved to be a terrible
defeat
So it will prove with General Grant in
his capture of the Springfield convention.
His apparent success will be followed by
certain defeat at Chicago. The contest
has clearly shown that the republicans of
his own State are opposed to him. BY
the party whip and spur. by unfair and
INSCRIPTIONS means. Grants friends
have defrauded the republicans Of Illinois
of their right to fair expression Of their
choice for President. and this. if nothing
else. will and should work his defeat be-
tore the national convention.
The opposition to Grants nomination
was strong enough before this rape at
Springfield to beat him. but the exhibi-
ton made by Logan's convention has in
tensified and decpened and widened the
feeling against him. so that the national
convention will never dare to present him
as the candidate. This matter is not con-
fined to Illinois. The republicans of
every State in the Union are interested As
much rs the republicans of Illinois. They
are indignant at the attempt by the Sena-
torial Triumvirate to stihe the popular
sentiment and foist upon the republican
party a candidate whom the plain people
Of the party are unwilling to support. and
they will be heard from before and at the
national convention in such manner that
their wishes will be regarded.
