He Plays His Cards W ell.
Woo Telephone

Governor Roberts is reported as sayin g
that, while he does not aspire to another gu.
bernatorisl term, yet, if the people approve
his administration and endorse him by re-
election, he will appreciate the compliment
and improve the opportunity to perfect his
policy which, as yet, is only in its first stage.
His excellency is also reported as authoriz-
ing the declaration that he is not and will
not be an aspirant for Senatorial honors, as
the successors of either Maxey or Coke.
The first declaration, with reference to his
reelection, will have very little effect, either
one way or another. All politicians display
similar seli:sbnegation, and the people take
i'll the real situation easily enough. The
latter phase of the Governors position,
however, as regards his Senatorial designs,
may prove the most adroit move he has yet
made. 1t may quiet influences which, other
wise, would have been arrayed against him
and given his supporters tough competition
in securing denomination. The old alcalde
is playing his cards carefully
and with the adroitness of veteran politi-
elan. He holds a strong hand, too, and
while the Telephone, for one, would prefer
to see Governor Roberts succeeded by n
Democrat who is in more thorough accord
with the spirit of the times, as regards edu-
cation and the general development of the
State--yet we cannot disregard the evident
fact that the Governor will go into the next
State convention with very strong follow
ing-so strong, in fact, that the abolition of
that ''time-honored" Democratic usage, the
two-thirds rule, will secure his denomination.
If the Roberts organs would serve their chief
they should at once commence cIamor
for the adoption Of the majority rule. Ii
does not matter that sucn papers as the
Statesman and Examiner sErieked themselves
hoarse eontending for the two-thirds doctrine
in 1878. 1t is different now, and they can let
consistency go glimmering to the dogs, along
with that $4,000 spent on the useless extra
session of the sixteenth Legislature, and con-
tend that the two-thirds rule should be abro-
gated, because its retention will defeat
Governor Roberts while its abolition is
equally sure to renominato him.

The Hon. Henry B. Cleaves and the Hon.
E. Fl. Cove spoke at North Windham Satur-
day evening in the Union church to a fine au-
dience. Mr.. Cleaves made an able speech,
reviewing the course of the two great political
parties now struggling for the ascendency in
this State, and in the Nation. Mr.. Cove fol-
lowed and made an earnest and highly effect
i've speech. The Democrats and Greenback-
ers who had come out to try to break up the
meeting by interrupting Mr.. Cove did not say
a word, despite it had been announced by the
Argus that he was to be questioned, and even
the list of the questions published in advance
The backdown was complete. They did not
care to meet Mr. Gove's mastery arguments,
and they could not call in question the abso-
Lutte correctness of his clear and logical pres
entation of the reasons why those who last
year voted for Smith should this year vote for
Gov. Davis At the close of the meeting,
three Greenbackers came forward and were
introduced to Mr.. Cove iby D. P. B. Pride,
Esq, and said that they proposed to vote for
Gov. Davis. Cheers were given for Mr.. Cove,

The Democratic Procession

The Democrats made very handsome dis
play Saturday night. Their procession was
well uniformed, large and brilliant. The cav
alcade proved an excellent feature, the torches
in the riders caps adding much to its effec-
tiveness. The friends of the party illuminat-
ed their houses, and in many cases decorated
them very prettily. Browns band of Boston
furnished very fine music along the route. We
figured 1924 uniforms in the procession, less 81
men in citizens dress who carried torches. The
Sunday Times made the number 1851 By our
estimate there were 10 more men in the Re-
publican than in the Democratic. procession.
By the Times there were 573 more

Fire at Republican Headquarters

AS the companies of the Republican bat
TALON were preparing to leave Lancaster
Hall Saturday evening one of the men lighted
his torch in the torch room. The torch was
leaky and blazed up,and to quench the fire the
man dropped the torch on the floor. The floor
was completely saturated with kerosene, and a
blaze was at once started which burst out of
an upper window facing on Centre street. An
alarm was rung in and the prompt arrival of
the fire department prevented serious con-
flagration. The damage will amount to about
800, which is covered by insurance. The
building is owned by Hon. j. B. Brown.
