TIE ELECTION IN MAINE AND THE
VICTORY of the Fusionists over the
Stalwart Republican faction in Mr..
Blaine's State has spread the greatest
terror in every quarter among the Gar
field people. In Indiana the greatest
dismay pervades; and in Illinois they
are utterly overcome. Logan is in
tears; and Senator Dorsey, who is in
Chicago,s says dispatch, worked him
self into fine frenzy as he ratified off
the dispatches sent from Mentor and
Bangor, and his face was as red as the
shell of boiled Boston lobster when
he threw up the window sash and
said:
81 want air. Was there ever such a
flap hop' Who under heaven could
have expected this9
"One of the wise men of Illinois is
Long Jones. Long Jones has more
especial charge Of Republican politics
in ihis State, but his knowledge of de-
tails in Maine, New York and Indiana
is marvellous. He sat with one lopo
leg twined in and about the other lone
leg the picture of despair. Cigar afte,
cigar disappeared in smoke, and wher
/ ventured TO ask what he thought he
mildly smiled, uncoiled himself and
said:-
"I'm d-d if know what to think
If we had majority of 500 should
have shifted at it with contempt, but
to have it the other way-good Lord
deliver US! l don't know what to sav

tough fight, but l certainly expected
our advisers there knew what the,
, were writing about. The blow is a,
severe as it is unexpected.
The exclamation, however, of the
Neaos, of our own city is worse than
this. The immoI Atty of these gentle.
men is shocking and our readers will
pardon us for quoting from them. We
would not do so, but there are some
people who are only sincere when they
use such language. The NesDs intro
duces the doleful story of the Maine
route with the following couplet
"Have you beard the news from Maine.
How 1t went, hell beut-"
Blaine's labor although not success
full deserved better.
But the route in Maine reminds us
of the celebrated "Cuyahoga bridge, y
in New York, at which the Wings met
their fate in 1874.
The latest returns indicate the elec.
tion of Plaisted by the Democrats ant
Greenbackers by 1000 majority in th,
State. The election of two Democrat,
/ to Congress and three Republicans
and small Republican majority in tn,
legislature.

To say TINT there will be lively times in Mchi-

Times will not only be lively, but they viii also
be warlike, and already language Of the'most
sanguinary character is being 1ndulged In by
the members Of one side to the fight The
trouble has I'LL arisen out Of an oId-timo feeling
of bitterness between Detroit and the other as
sociations which hare for years past constituted
what is known as the Michigan Circuit. Last
year the Detroit track was not member Of the
Nauonnf Association, but not long ago the
moribund organization at that point was par
tally revived. and an effort made to assume
an appearance Of sprightlipess which would
warrant horsemeu in the belief that something
wonderful was to be done. Capt. JohuDe Mass
and several other we'll known phflauthroplsfs
took the concern in hand and announced, with
no small flourish Of trumpets, that Detroit
would hereafter keep pace with her sister Asso-
c1at1ons In Michigan, and do things on grand
scale Eencraliy. " course 1t was proposed t.,
3c:n the Michigan Circuit, but this part of the
form. since no opposition was apprehcuded. The
