THE sixth congressional district

125, 1884 in 1870. This, at 10000 voters
to the district, will make the eleventh

be in the tenth district, which will
probably cover the scope of country

THE MAINE srUDDT.E.

This Maine election business is be-
ginning to be a nuisance, and il now
appears that we are to have nothing
definite until the official count is
made. which is to be done by
Governor Davis, which is n very bad
name, rs Texans know, for justice To
ANYTHING or anybody that is known
as Democratic or which is at all under
the influence of Democrats. 1t is
evident enough that fraud is being
attempted with these returns, for
there is said to be not a voting
place in the state from which returns
should not be received in twenty
four hours after an election. The
returns come direct to Davis. who is
the man that may be bene-
fitted by fraudulent manipulation of
them, which day after day are ap-
pearing as having been Incorrectly
reported for the first forty-eight
hours. Should Davis not succeed in
counting himself in, the Fusionists
will inaugurate Plaisted, and this
will make the success of the Fusion
electoral ticket certainty, but if
Davis seat himself by fraud il will
cement and intensity the opposition
and make the battle for the Fusion
electors even more desperate than
the state contest has been. Ifthere
shall be the appearance of fraud in
the declared election of Davis, it will
put the Republicans on the defensive
on the Maine issue in all the dis
puted states. For all practical pur-
poses in the general presidential
battle, Maine is a crushing defeat
to the Republicans, and it would
be adding the stupidest folly to dis
aster by resOrting to violence to
obtain the merest shadow of sue
cess. The verdict of Maine, says
the Philadelphia Times, is misunder-
stood by one from the pine tree for
ests to the Pacific Slope, and the
Judgment of the nation is entered
upon the verdict. 1t breaks the
backbone of the Garfield column
| and nothing less than some equally
unexpected revulsion on the other
side in October can throw doubt
upon the verdict of the country in
accord with the verdict of Maine.
