ELECTION IN MAINE.
THE RESULT STILL IN DOUBT.


Full RETURNS REQUIRED TO SETTLE THE CUES
TrON-REPUBLICAN GAINS IN 800 TOwNs-A
MAJORITY IN EACH HOUSE OF THE LEGIsLA-
TURE.
Full returns from the State of Maine
will be necessary in order to show
the result of the election on Mon
day; though it is not generally
believed that the Republicans have overcome
the majority which the Greenbackers and
Democrats combined had last year. Three
hundred towns reported show a Republican
majority of 2,243; but the towns still to hear
from had Fusion majority of 1907
last year. Three Congressman have been
elected by the Republicans, who will
also have large majority in each house of
the Legislature. Marshall Jewell says that
while the result is a Republican reverse,
it is not Democratic victory. lie
thinks the election there will do good
because it will make business men think
more closely and earnestly of the possibilities
of the future, if the Democrats should come
into power.
SENATOR BLAINE TO GENERAL GARFIELD
THE RESULT OF THE ELECTION BRIEFLY SUMMED
UP-How THE DEMOCRATS GAINED 5000 VOTES
IN -FOUR DAYS.
AUGUSTA. Me-, Sept. 14-Senater Blaine has just
sent the following to General Garfield:
AUGUSTA. Sept. IA. 1880.
ITO Gen. JAS. A. GARFIELD, Mentor, ohio:
"The net result of yesterdays election, as nearly
az can be- stated at this hour, 3 p. m Tuesday, is
about as follows:
The Republicans have carried the Isl, lid and
lid Congressional Districts while the Fusionsts
have carried the lVth aud Vth. The Republicans
have carried both branches of the Legislature by
a strong majority, reaching, perhaps. two
thirds Of each House. On the popular vote
for Governor. Davis and Pasted have each
over 10000 votes with the probabilities
in favor of PaIsted coming out
a few hundred perhaps a thousand ahead. The
result is nndeniably surprise to us and equally so
10 the mass Of the Democratic party IN
Maine. Our canvass never more
accurately taken and it showed on Wednes-
day last a total vote for Davis Of trAe over
10000 with an assured majority of 5000
a. the minimum In the four days preceding the
election we lost over 5000 votes BY means well
known 10 tine managers Of the National Demo-
cratic campaign, and which do not call for
further specifications from me. The total cost is
variouslv estimated at from $4,000 to 100000
and the money all came from beyond the State.
Such scenes were never before witness III Maine.

Fire in Greenbush.

On Tuesday aGternoon Mr.. Peter Robi-
!deau's house was completely destroyed by
fire Most Of what furniture there was on
the ground floor was saved but everything
up stairs and in the cellar was devourel
by the flames. The loss is estimated at
$500. No insurance whatever. 1t is
not exactly known how the fire origin
ated but it is supposed that a defective
stove pipe was what caused the confa
grafton. Mr.. and Mrs. Robideau were
down to Minneapolis visiting friends and
there was no one at the house but the
children when the fire broke out. The
agent for the St. Paul Fire and Marine
Insurance Company called to insure the
house on Monday, but Mr.. Robideau, as
before stated, had gone to Minneapolis
Mr.. Kobideau has a large family to pro-
vide for and he is an honest Woodworking
man; he is entitled to and should receive
the substantial sympathy Of the entire
community in this, his great, misfortune
We have not the least donbt but what the
ever-generous citizens of this village will
contribute literally towards helping Mr..
Robidcau 10 rebuild his dwelling house.

Major Holden Reuudiated.

Some few weeks ago Major NJ. T.
Holdcn-the eccentric temperance exhort.
or and stale anccdote-relater who made
such sDlurge in this village and vicinity
last winter-visited Brainerd and worked
up tem perapcc revival. The people of
Brainerd treated him very kindly and paid
him about $40 for his services. Further
more, the Ladies' Aid Society proposed to
get up an oyster supper for his benefit;
this generous proposal of the ladies he
would not listen to-; the society went
ahead, however, and got up the supper,
and donated the proceeds amour.
cd to one hundred and fifty dollars-to
the Holden Reform Club" to be used in
fitting up hall, etc, Holden then claim
that the proceeds of the oyster supper
belonged to him, and roundly abused the
lady with whom he was boarding because
the money was not given to him. At the
last meeting of the club it's president read
a letter which he had received from the
Major, in which he, Mr., Holden, claim ed
the proceeds of the oyster supper The
secretary of the club was instructed to
inform MIR. Holden that the club was I'M
der no obligations to him, pecuniary or
otherwise, and the Tribune says, "a reso-
lutipn was next introduced changing the
name Of the club from the Holden Re
form Club to the 'Brainerd Reform Club,
and the reputation of Major NJ. T. Hold
ell was complete"
