perfectly reassuring. We submit, there
fore, that General Garfield can be trusted
implicitly if he enters the canvass, and we
maintain that it would be grave mistake
to relinquish the great service his oratory
and argumentative powers embody, merely
because he is a candidate. Many Presi-
dental candidates have taken an active
part in their own canvass. Henry Clay
did so, and since his time Douglas and
Greeley and Seymour have followed the
example There is therefore ample pre-
cedent for the course we urge, and the CIR
cumstances are certainly of kind to rec
ommend the proposition strongly. In the
great West the breadth and manliness, the
mingled reason and poetry OF General Car
fields oratory, would excite the greatest
enthusiasm. He is man entirely after
the hearts of the Western communities,
and they would feel themselves at one
with him instantly could they but hear
his voice and feel the magnetism of
his presence. Then again. General
Garfield is perhaps the best and
amplest representative of Republican
principles now living. The leader of his
party in the House of Representatives, the
natural exponent of its doctrines on all
serious occasions, he would set the key
note of the campaign, and his utterances
would day by day be read by millions.
There is therefore an opportunity here to
get the most powerful aud the most repre-
sentative opinions of one of the first Re-
publicans more widely disseminated than
could be possible under any other circum-
stances. 1t appears to US that such an
opportunity ought to be embraced, and we
do not think General Garfield himself
would hesitate to accept the responsibility.
We hope the National Committee will be
moved to adopt the course suggested, for
we are confident that it would rebound
greatly to the advantage of the party.

THE LOST MINES OF GAMMA.

The New York Truth of July 18th says ::
't Major Crossman has telegraphed from
Panama, on his return from the Lost mines
of Gamma. The investigation does not ap-
pear to have been favorable. A gentle
man now on the Comstock, says the Vir-
ginia New Enterprise of July 25th, once
spent some time III search of those or some
other lost mines in that region. He was
so far successful that he found in the jun
gle AN ancient road paved with stone.
Trees three feet in diameter were in many
places found growing in the center of this
road, and the jungle was SO thick and SO
tangled with vines that in tracing the road
lit was necessary to cut trail with ma
chettes. In this manner the old road was
traced for many miles till it at last came
to the edge of great swamp. On the bor-
der of the morass it was squarely broken
off. No sign of a road could be found in
the swamp, but it was thought that its dis
appearance in such place was of little mo-
ment. Our explorer was sure he would
find the continuation of the road at the
base of the mountains on the opposite side
of the swamp, but nothing more of it was
ever seen, though many days were spent in
searching for it. According to native ira
ditiou the road led to ruined town where
there were mines immensely rich in gold.
On the seacoast were ruins of town, and
it was from these that the great paved road
lei out into the wilderness. In the forks
of tree, some sixty feet from the ground,
near the ruins of the town on the seashore,
were seen about a wheelbarrow of bricks
The supposition was that these bricks had
been brought to the place as ballast by
some ship. The tree had grown up through
pile of them, carrying upward as it grew
those seen in its forks. At intervals along
the road were found the ruins of what APP
peared to have been wayside stations The
low stone walls still stood, but no sign OF
roof or wood work OF any kind renamed,
and great trees frequently grew within the
Enclosures, and in some places had over
thrown one or more of the walls. In dlg-
ging for relics on the floors OF some OF these
old guard houses fragments OF charcoal or
charred wood were found, but nothing in
the way of tools, pottery OF anything else
of the least value.

HARTFORD Post: At last another and
more desperate and even worse feature of
the canvass arouses the indignation of hon
est men and brings Barnum and his associ-
ate managers into deeper disgrace. The
lying scandals of a consistently scan.
dalous campaign were not enough.
They had failed Of their purpose and had
produced reaction, the handwriting of
which was seen in the shining light of the
great Republican victories of Indiana and
Ohio. Whom the gods would destroy they
first make mad" Barnum and other poll
tical assassins in the midnight of their de-
feat, and in the desperate moods of men
blind with madness, concocted forgery and
took oath that it was genuine-the meanest
OF crimes, an uttering of a false tCken backed
by perjury; and this dastardly outrage has
its defenders and its accessories before and
afte" the fact,-state prison offense as it is
but for the technical defense that the name
upon which the forgery is committed
is not the name it pretends to be,-has it's
defenders, we say, in partisan and unprinci-
pied journals.

The New York Times has letter from
Hartford which claims Connecticut for the
Republicans by at least 5000 majority. The
only danger now is in feeling of over-con-
hdence which may induce Republicans to
relax their efforts. Victory is within their
grasp, but not without a struggle. The
Democrats are in a measure discouraged,
but they can always be rallied by money, and
there are indications that it will be poured
out IN abundance. To summarize the stu
alton, the chances are that the Republicans
will carry the National and State tickets by
satisfactory majorities, and will elect at
least three of the four Congressman, and
Will control the State Legislature, thus Sc
curing Republican United States Senator
General Hawley) to succeed William W.

and the higher price to the American fisher
men. Every Democratic Senator voted against
this proposed duty on fish from the Provinces.
The Limitation in the treaty will expire in
eighteen months, after the next President is
inaugurated. If Garfield is President the
duty will be levied on fish from the Provinces,
and Maine fishermen will derive all the bene-
fit
If Hancock shall be President fish will be
admitted free from the Provinces, and the
business prosperity OF Maine fishermen will be
seriously lpaired
If Maine coasters and fishermen will not
vote to promote their own interests let them
take the consequences.
The policy of Hancock will iniure them.
The policy of Garfield will benefit them.

Do working men want to toll for the misera-
BILE wages paid in the Old World? If not. lot
them vote to defend the Protective Tariff Tn
the Southern States the black working man
gets IS a month and a ration of peck Of corn
meal and three pounds of bacon q week. Per-
haps the Southern politicians who control the
Democratic party would like to bring the
white working man of the North down to
these wages. The white working man will.
in November, express his opinion of their rev
enue tariff plan with his ballot.
TO THE COASTERS AND FISHERMEN OF MAINE
The election of November second for the
Presidency, has an important bearing ON vour
interests.
By the present law of protection, coastinp
vessels built and owned in the United States
are entitled to the coasting trade, withont
competition from foreign built vessels.
The Democratic platform, which Gen. Han
cock approves, proposes to open the American
trade to "free ships" built in any country.
To this doctrine the Republicans are opposed.
They believe that the coasting trade of the
United States should be kept exclusively for
American built vessels, and that none other
should be permitted to take part in it.
Those who wish to admit foreign built
vessels to the coastiug trade of the United
States, should vote for Hancock
Those who wish to confine the benefits of
the coasting trade to American vessels, should
vote for Garfield.
The issue is distinctly made. and the vote Of
every man will count upon it,
The fishermen of Maine are also identified
closely and intimately with the coasting
trade.
Throw open the coasting trade to all nations
and the fishing interest of the United States
would suffer the most serious damage.
The Republican party is the constant and
consistent friend of all forms Of American
industry.
The Republican Senators have already
given notice that just as soon a. the limit ex-
pires in the treaty with Great Britain, tbey
will move to levy duty on fish from the
Provinces and give the benefit of that duty

for the right to labor and earn an honest
living. We are fighting to preserve the mag
nificent system of manufactures that has
grown up in America under the wise and
benefcent protection afforded by our exist
ing tariff. We are fighting for all the kim
dred home industries that have been deyel-
oped by and with our factories, furnaces and
mills. We are lighting for home market
for Pennsylvania coal and for Minnesota
wheat. We are fighting that the miner in
the East and the farmer in the West may be
able TO sell the products of their labor at
fair price; that working men and working
women all over the land may have employ
ment and decent pay for their work. This
is the bread-and-butter campaign the Re-
publican party is carrying on, and we are
not ashamed of it.
