From the Bangor Wing and Courier.

The leading feature of the campaign IN
this section has been the malignant and con-
centrated fight of the fusion gang against
Capt Boutelle. For the past three weeks
their whole efforts have been directed to
bullying and trading to cut down his vote
and all day Yesterday in every ward IN the
city they were ready TO swap the whole fusion
ticket with any one who would simply leave
out Capt. Boutelle's name. All the active
fusion fuglers and several exceptionally
malignant renegades were 10 work through
out the day pretending to be republican as
tributors and cheating unsuspectlng persons
into casting an imitation of our ballot from
which the name of the republican candidate
for Congress was omitted. 1t Is safe to say
that not less than ten thousand dollars OF the
democratic funds from outside the State were
put out in this city yesterday primarily ITO
fight Boutelle'' in any and every possible way
They succeeded in reducing his city vote Just

of putting him behind Ladd as they intended
he leads that demagogue by nearly hundred
majority in Bangor.

The result of the election IN Maine
should have the effect to stimulate the re-
publicans of Indiana TO redoubled exer-
tons. The democrats will spare no effort
or expense to carry that State in October.
They will resort to any means that will
aid them in achieving victory. They
will pour out money like water to bride
voters. and hesitate at no fraud or trick to
swell their vote and give them an appar-
ent majority. Maine will certainly 60 for
Garfield in November. but victory in
Indiana will be of immense advantage to
us In the struggle to carry this State for
Garfield in the Presidential election. In
November the National Democratic Com
mittee will have no barl to distribute in
Maine, which will make a great difference
in the result compared with that of Mon
day last.

An indianapolis correspondent of The

Candidate English friendly notice, gives
this remarkable description of his personal
appearance: "IIe stands in low cut, un-
buttoned CATERS about five feet nine
inches. His head would be bald but tor
an ingenious, though not an entirely IN
genuous, combing of his side hair, and is
well shaped for business. He has shelly
ing forehead clear gray eye, full dyed
beard and red socks. He wears black
broadcloth coat and trousers-the latter
perhaps two inches too short brownish
vest, no watch and silk cravat, with the
knot nearer his ear than his windpipc. :"
This photograph is pronounced by compe-
tent democratic authority decidedly vivid
and life-like."

The greenback opposition to fusion has
been OF considerable service to the repub
licans in this election. Mr.. Reed owes
much to Mr. Cove and his followers for
his reelection to Congress. We main
tain our strength in the State also by the
help of the same element, the men who
though believing in greenbackism were
not ready or willing To be sold ont by the
democrats to the Confederate Brigadiers
that rule the democratic party. The SER
vices of these men deserve recognition by
the republicans and we trust they will
have it.

If it should prove to be a fact that
Plaisted is elected Governor the posses
sion of the Office will be but an empty
honor. The Senate and the House are
both strongly republican, they elect the
Executive Council and the heads of de-
partments. Every appointment made by the
Governor must pass under the scrutiny of
the Council, and must be rejected If the
Council so decide. Mr.. Plasted will have
but little power in such circumstances if
elected. being but iigure-head for the

Price of Wheat,

While the farmers of the great West
are rejoicing over their large crops they are
not quite content with the present price of
wheat. When, east of the Mississippi and
west of Pennsylvania and New York, it
drops below ninety cents a bushel. they
are satisfied. In some localities in Michi-
gan large percentage was gathered and
garnered while moist. The result is that
a great deal more than usual is hurried
off to market soft and ''sprouted. This
imperfect berry is sold at from 80 TO 30
cents, and affects the price of sound
wheat. which in most localities is quoted
below 90. The result of this is that farm
ers who can do so will hold on to their
crops for better figures. which they ex-
pect to obtain when the soft wheat is all
disposed of.
In many localities also the unusual rain
fall during the month of August has re-
tarsicd the preparation of the ground TOR
fall planting. In large sections this OBJ
struction is very serious, and if it does not
greatly reduce the acreage planted. Will
delay the work far beyond what is deemed
safe limit. Should the rains continue
through the first fortnight in September
much less than the usual amount of wheat
can be sowed and the price of the gathered
crop will be somewhat affected.

Senator Blaine sent the following tele

Senator Blaine sent the following tele-
gram yesterday to General Garfield:
AUGUSTA, ME., Sept. IA, 1880.
To General James A. Garfield, Mentor,
Ohio -
The net result Of yesterdays election as
nearly as can be stated at this hour, three P.
NJ, Tuesday, is about as follows: Republic
cans have carried the first, second and third
Congressional Districts, while the Fusionists
have carried the fourth and fifth. The Re-
publicans have carried both branches of the
Legislature by strong majority, reaching
perhaps two-thirds Of each house. On the
popular vote for Governor. Davis and Plaist-
ed have each over seventy-two thousand
votes, with the probabilities in favor of
Plaisted coming out few hundred, perhaps
a thousand ahead.
The result is undeniably surprise to US,
and equally so to the mass OF the Democratic
party in Maine. Our canvass was never
more accurately taken, and it showed on
Wednesday last total vote for Davis of a
trifle over seventy-six thousand, with an as
sured majority of six thousand at the mini
mum. In the four days preceding the cleo
ton we lost over three thousand votes, by
means well known to the managers of the
National Democratic campaign, and which
do not call for further specification from
me. The total cost is variously estimated at
from seventy-fve to a hundred thousand
dollars, and the money all came from be-
yond the State. Such scenes were never be-
fore witnessed in Maine.

Very little more is definitely known of the
results of the election than was known yester-
day morning. But few returns have been re-
ceived at the State House. The figures so
far received seem to indicate the election of
Plasted by a small majority.
Frye's majority in the Cd district is
estimated at about 800 majority. Private
dispatches received here yesterday, say Reed
and that his election is conceded by the
democrats. Lindsey's majority in this dis
trict is estimated as follows -
