Causes of the Name Surprise.
DIsAFFECTIoN TO THE LEADERS


Mr.. D. c. Forney, who has returned to WaSh-
tngton, was ct Portland, Maine, a few days be-
fore the election. At that time he found the re-
publicans confident that they would carry the
state. He met only one leading republican who
hada doubt. While in New York, ten days be-
tore the election Gen. Logan, who had returned
from Maine. reported to the national committee
That Maine was safe for the republicans that 1t
was not necessary to send any more money into
the state, and that If it was sent it would b,
used stlaly tor the personal aggrandize nent o.
Senator Blaine. Mr.. Forney found while with
the national committee that good deal OF jeal-
ousy existed among the leading republicans
One OF the causes OF the. defeat, Mr. Forney
says, is the domination OF Blaine and Hamltn
over the young of the state. He was told
that no young man had chance for political
preferment only with Blaine and Hamlin',
permission. Governor. Plaistad, said he
'1s as good republican as Blaine
or Hamiin, but both drcve him out of the
republican party because be. dared disagree
With them" MIR. Forney says that the business
loom has not struck Maine; that its shtpouild-
ing industries are languishing. He says, too,
that Gen. Butler created a profound impression
among the voters with the argument tnat the
breaking down Of the Blaine -Haml.n domina-
ton would bring about better times

relation to the movement for healing the differ

five Of the conservative electors and five of the
readjuster electors, the eleventh elector to be
named by the national democratic commit
tee or chosen by lot. The readjusters
committee remained IN session until O'Clock
this morning. The greater portion OF the seS-
sion was spent In a general interchange OF
views On party matters, and expressions as to
what was thought by the people OF the proposed
compromise. The plan OF the conservative
committee, which had been lying before the re-
aoJuster committee all night, was not opened
until half past O'Clock, when it was briefly
considered. Finally, it was decided to re.
Jeet the plan, and subcommittee
was appointed to prepare a reply The
readjusters are now again In session discuss
Ing the matter. One subject which is being
considered, is whether the readtuSterS Shall
embody In their reply plan OF compromise OF
their own. One plan that Is known they have
discussed is to submit the two Hancock elec-
toral tickets to the people at the primary elec-
tion some time In october, and that which

vote that ticket shall be recognized at the Presi-
