MARSHALL JEWELL.
Tribune Hits.

This is pretty comfortable country for
an honest man TO live in. after all.
Don't resign. English. The whole coun-
try wants whack at you.
Not new rebel flag has appeared for
three days. Johnny Reb is suffering from a
depression of spirits.
The only change to be desired is a
change of heart among the Democrats.
Happily. many Of them are becoming con-
verted. too.
Chairman Jewell has a serious notion to
propose to Chairman Barnum that he move
to make Garfeld's election unanimous.
Election day comes only two weeks
from next Tuesday. The Democrats will be
able to pull themselves together jus, in time
to be knocked down again.
Wall from English: "If only had a
mortgage on something for that $4,000 I'd
foreclose il with bang. But the whole
Democratic party to-day isn't worth that
amount"
-Barnum uplifts once more the familiar
cry of fraud" Whenever Democratic
schemes to buy Stale are unsuccessful, that
refrain follows as surely as an echo. The
gifted Moses called it ringing fre-bells in
the night. The country is accustomed to
the sound. and interprets it accurately as a
wall of despair.
In view of the wondrous activity among
the competitors for the jack knife, it is not
far out Of the way to apply to the Demo-
cratic party the lines from Gray's Elegy:
Hands that the rod of empire nigh. have swayed.
Or walked To ecstasy the iriag fyre.-
The party hasn't much luck. to be sure, in
syaying the rod of empire. but for waking
living liars to ecstasy it takes the cake"

To ). H. Naniey, Chairman County COM
mittee, augusta:
The victory in Indiana and Ohio increases
with every telegram from the field of battle.
The Presidential figh, is practically over. and
Garfield will be elected by an overwhelming
majority. The Republicans will probably
have a majority of the House and lie in
the Senate. The gains in both branches
outrun all out expectations. We shall have

II the Republicans of Hancock county

In September they should lose no time in
commencing the work that must be done.

main, and while the country and town COM
mitises are expected TO do al, they can. every

that many who nave heretofore acted with
the Greenbackers, will cast their votes for
Garfield and Arthur in the November elec-
ticn. We have heard of quite a number al
ready who have expressed determination
TO do so, being disguised with the Demo
cratic management Of the Fusion party and
realizing the utter hopelessness Of making
the new party party Of national influence.
Many Greenbaekers prefer Garfield TO Han
cock and II convinced that they must choose
between the two, and the October elections
have shown that they must, will certain
ly cast their ballots for Garfield Let
every Republican do his duty and Maine is
as certain TO give its seven electoral votes
for the Republican candidates as anv State
