Just a. should have boen expected BY
all sensible men. and just A. was expect
ed by all sensibls Democrats, tho Su.
prsms Court OF Maine decided against
ths hieh.handsd. outrageous action Of
Governor Garcslon and his accomplices
in rascally fraud. Tho Court returned
answers to the twelve law points sub
mittsd by Governor Garcelon. The
questions and answers make Q long
document. but the gist Of the whole.
briefly stated. 10 Is follows The Judges
are OF the opinion that the returns
should not DO vitiatsd 80 long a. they
are understood. They arc mot TO Be
stranslsd by technicalitiss nor distorted
by carping aud csptious criticism. A
whole town must not be disfranchised
by reason OF the fraud or negligence Of
their officers" In other words. . great
deal Of common sense and a. little q
possible OF strict law ought to bs brought
to bear on the returns.
Such . clsan-cut, sharp rebuks OF the
bsrsfaced attempt to steal the State OF
Maine for the Democracy by . resort TO
petty. unreasonable tschnicalities and
delicate legal points is exceedingly good
and acceptable in the eyes OF all honest
men. including many Democrats. Gov.
Garcelon must feel rather mean over Il;
somsthipg like q fellow caught trying
70 steal sheep. The best way for him
70 do now is to stick to 1t that hs was
honestly trying to carry out the true and
strict letter OF the law and had NO other
interest in the matter. yet in view Of this
decision Of the Supreme Court he can
feel justified in gracefully yielding and
dsisrrine TO superior wisdom.

The canvass o: the Third district,
which has been made complete, affords
positive assurance o. a brilliant Demo-

which the result is doubtful. The Dem

,ions. The hickery OF their leaders,
from Weaver down, and the exposition
oi their trcachery has caused 4 large and
stealy DETECTION from the Grecnhack
ranks, especially cf those who were
formerly democrats.
St0rgiss' speeches, and also j. a.
Campbcli's, in this end oi the State have
had the effect OF adding much to the
Democratic strength. The reckless dis
paragement and Misrepresentation OF
Stursiss, in regard to our State, and the
majority OF its citizens, and the course,
stupid TRADES OF Campbell have aroused
feeling OF strongin in iignat on among all
classes OF people, ani the men, and
their utt RANGES, are d,nounce even by
Republicans themselves, while their
awkwar attempt AT coquetry with the
Greenbacerks has ha little or no effect
with those whom they iondly hoped
would come over en- masss TO the supper t
OF their ticket.
The result OF their meanderings
through this region is very satdening
10 themselves and 10 Walker whose
hear, has been So. and whose word was
pledged TO S.urgiss, 10 hand over the
Greeenback votes of this district 10 the
Repuhlican bosses, on and OF the
ticket, To be used rs counters IN their
political game, but the scheme has mis-
serably miscarried.
The exposure OF the Radical plans
has had the result oi driving the Demo
era, portion OF the Geenback vote over
to its old faith, and the result will he
the overwhelming defeat OF Walker ant!
his Republican allies. kenna will carry
the district by anywhere from 5 600 10
5000 votes. The Democratic skies are
bright. and an cid time majority may
looked for.

Northcott, the Republican candidate

that Maxwell will get that vote.
In regard to the House OF Delegates,
we will certainly elect one, ami proba

chance of one Greenback candidate pull

HOW NE VOTED ON THE TARIFF.
Facts from Official Sources Which Should
Be Memoriled BY All Who Favor
Protection for American
Industries.
REPUBLICAN VIEWS OF HIS COURSE.

In order that an intelligent and dis
cerning public may clearly and fully un.
derstanl the position o! General James
A. Garfield, the Republican candidate
for the Presidency, on the Tariff ques.
ton, We again lay before onr readers u
brief review OF the course he has pursued
in Congress on questions affecting the
duty on articles OF foreign production
imported into this country, by which il
will be seen that, on every occasion, he
showed himself to be in favor OF
q low tariff on foreign coal, iron,
steel and wool, articles produced or
manufactured in this country, and at
the same time recorded his vote agains,
the proposition to place tea and coffee,
articles OF large consumption by the
working classes, on the free list, thereby,
in effect. proclaiming that he not only
favored reducing the wages OF laborng
men, but would compel them Ia pay a
higher price ior wha; tea and coffee
they used. We also present 4 letter
from prominent Pennsylvania Eepuh.
lican, and member oi Congress, who,
with several of his co.l,a:ues, refused
to support Garfield when candidate FOR
Speaker in 1877. showing that his record
and sentiments are well known and IN.
derstood by the leaders OF his own
party.
