OF Brldgton, was then introduced and said he
heartily Joined in the jubilatons of the occa-
sion, and took his place in the line with quite
as much earnestness as he should have done
had the national standard bearer been taken
from our own State With the designation of
the standard bearer by the national conyen
ton we are no longer to be classified as Blaine
men, or Grant men, or Sherman men, but are
soliditied into compact army under the COM
mon designation OF Republicans, prepared to
move forward in solid phalanx under most
glorious leader to the completion of the nm
finished work of this grand old party of ours
work which will not be conSummated until
the humblest citizen of this broad land shall
be absolutely secure in the exercise of eyery
civil and political right, whether he be black
or white, or whether he reside in Maine or in
the Carolinas.
The outcome of the Chicago convention is
simply glorious. Despite the angry disputations
and rancor of that remarkable assemblage. we
are given one of the grandest of leaders,
man of eminent ability, of incorruptible ir.
tegrity, and so thoroughly identified with the
living issues OF the hour that he is in himself
the very best platform of principles it is posi-
BILE for man to formulate. The outlook is most
suspicious, and if | do not greatly mistake
the signs OF the times the Republican party
are determined that in the coming election
there shall be no occasion for the use of the
modern contingent machine" being manu-
featured by Democratic Congress- In Ohio
our candidate has been known as "Great Ma
jority" Garfield. We shall show in Maine and
throughout the nation as well, that this is no
misnomer.

HANCOCK ON THE TARIFF.

am too sound an American to advo-
cate any departure from the general
features OF a policy that has been
largely instrumental in building up our
industries and keeping Americans from
the competition OF the underpaid labor
OF Europe.
II We intend to remain honest and
pay the public debt, as good people OF
all parties do, and ii We mean to admin
lister the functions Of government, then
we must raise revenue in some way or
ether. With reunited and harmonious
country We shall certainly in time pay
off the public debt, but the necessity OF
raising money for the administration OF
the Government will continue as long
as human nature lasts. All parties agree
that the best way for us to raise revenue
is largely by the tariff. SO far as We are
concerned, therefore, all talk about "free
trade" is folly.
"But the tariff question will probably
be treated with justice TO all our inter
ests and people by some such bill as
Eaton's. / believe that commission OF
intelligent experts, representing both
the government and American indus
tries, will suggest tariff measures that
will relieve us of any crudities and in
consistencies existing in our present
laws, and confirm to us system which
will be judicious, just, harmonious and
incidentally protective as well as stable
in its effect."-Gen. Hancock to Cor. Ran
