FOGG!

The democrats of this district have done
a disgraceful and a shameful thing; one
for which they must tingle with shame to
their very finger tips. They have noml-
mated Fogg. They have thrown aside
their sdAse of decency, their honor, their
honesty, their manhood, and have nomi-
mated Fogg. The question is not wheth-
er he has smartness, which he evidently
has it is not whether he favors this policy
or opposes that, for in his speech the
other night he did nothing of the kind.
But the question for honest democrats,
honest greenbackers, honest men to con-
slider, is, will they vote for the man who
has proved himself an unmitigated villain.
And we put the question square before
men who think they have some pride OF
character, who value their own self-re-
spect, who are honest themselves, and
despise dishonesty in others, who would
not knowingly be guilty Of dishonoraoie
action, or become participation in such
action after the fact. we put thequestion
to such men whether they will take a
partnership in the SHAME of voting for
the villain Fogg. AS for the men who
brought about the nomination of FOgg by
democratic convention, they have by
that fact made open confession of their
agency and participation in the infamous
contingent proceedings.-Bath Times.

A CONVERSION.
dayton Journal

Scene: A copperhead meeting in
Holmes county, Ohio. Time, August,
1868. The crowd wear copperhead
badges, butternuts. and such like. The
orators denounce the abolition war and
its generals, and pronounce it failure.
A large banner on the stand reads, mot
another man, not another dollar for the
unholy war
1880. The scene is changed, but on
the same spot. Dramatis persona the
same. Every copperhead present wears
an army badge. They join in Rally
Round the Flag" and cheer for the
gallant soldiers of the Union. The
orators denounce rebels and rebellion till
they are black in the face. They curse
copperheads and rebels, and boast how
Hancock hanged and shot the rebels.
Some skeptical old copperheads wag
their heads and refuse to '.jine the
chorus"

A PROBLEM WORTH SOLVING.

The Portland Democratic organ, which
has earned the title of "lying Argus" can
occasionally state proposition not in
volving Bourbon politics fairly, as thus:
Five thousand dollars is large sum Of
money. Not one man in five hundred sue
ceeds in accommodating this sum in life
time of hard toll. 1t would buy farm Of
100 acres at $50 per acre. mechanic
would have to work eight years at $500
day to earn this sum-"
Yes, Mr.. Argus and did you ever re-
feet that it took the Garcelon gang only
q fraction of one day, just as they were
about going out of power, to earn SIN
THOUSAND DOLLARS phich they
haze to this day giren no honest account-
ing for to the State'
The tax payers of this State want to
know how it is that their earnings, which
come so hard, can slip so easily into the
pockets Of the Fusion oticials.-Honest

spondent, who, we are confident, reflects
the sentiment of not few Democrats in
this State concerning fusion. He says
Doubtless many Democrats outside Of
the State think 1t singular that the Fusion
lists do not hang together better than they
do In their common opposition TO the Re-
publican party. A superficial observer
would see no reason, perhaps, why the two
opposition parties IN Maine should not
UNITE temporarily for the defeat Of the
reigning dynasty. 1t Is not strange, but
IL is true nevertheless, that very few peo-
pie outside of this State, and by no means
all in this State, understand the political
situation here. Any one who is CONVEX
SAINT with State politics must know that
great majority of the leaders Of the Green
back party are ex-Republicans. Most OF
these men were not as prominent as they
wished TO be in their own party, and while
desiring to devise some means OF getting
their heads into the public crib, they were
yet not ready to join the Democratic party,
and were obliged to seize upon some issue
with which to form new party, as leade rs
OF which they might ride into power
These soreheads, with few ofiice-seeking
politicians from the Democrats, manage
the Greenback machine In Maine. The
rank and tle are composed OF few Repub-
licaus, a few honest believers In soft money,
aud much larger number OF bamboozled
Democrats.
The Maine Democrats were on the high
road to success, when few selfish men,
seeing that their party babe fair TO come
into power, and fearing lest they would
not be the ones to get the offices, steadily
fell In with a few Republican politicians OF
similar type, and assisted them to push
forward the Greenback movement. But,
besides running their party's chances OF
success, these men overreached themselves,
| for their movement has failed and will fall
again. Even were there no principles
involved, one can readily understand how
distasteful it would be to real Democrats
to assist In boosting into power renegade
Republicans, wild theorists and deserters
from their own party. The spectacle oil
genuine Andrew Jackson Democrats vot-
| Ing into office such men as Fogg, Murch,
Cove & Co., is not edifying, to say the
least.
From present appearances should hard
| " say that the election OF Plaisted could
be reckoned on as q probability. per-
sonally know Of number Of straight Dem
ocrats in this place, and one prominent one
Mt least, outside Of it, who intend either
to vote the Republican ticket, not vote AZ
all, or make up ticket OF their own.
