The New York Herald Snuffs a
Republican Victory IN Maine.

The Herald says: 1.-The democrats will, OF
course, be defeated in Maine, and they de-
serve their defeat. Their scandalous attempt
last winter to accomplish by force and fraud
what they had failed to accomplish in the
election covered them with merited disgrace,
and no honest man should wish to see them
relieved of the penalty. The passions which
survive that ignoble endeavor impaired con-
siderable vigor to the democratic canvass in
Maine in its early stages, but the spotless
reputation of Gen. Hancock could not 'blazon
evil deeds or consecrate a crime 1t remains
to be seen whether the democratic defeat in
Maine will impair the chances of the party in
Indiana, where defeat would be more dis.
couraging, if not irreparable.''

Nr.E. v. Smalley OF the New York III
bue. who recently visited Maine, says in
letter tie the Tribune of Wednesday morning );
Imet in Boston Friday one OF the leading
Massachusetts greenba ckers, Mr.. Devine, VINO
presided at Gen. Viewers meeting IN Fan
emil Hall. Last year he was on the stump IN
this State. He said he had refused TO take
mart in the canvass this year because the iu-
sion was = surrender to the democrats IN its
practical effect. IF it could succeed. ne
sa;d. the democrats would claim the result as
A Hancock victory, and it would help their
fight all over the country. But 1t Will NOT
succeed because there are thousands OF
greenbackers who don't want to help elect
Hancock. and who will not vote the fusion
ticket. We are going to have another stare
convention in Name pretty soon, and we shall
then nut ND a separate electoral ticket for the
ereenbackers 10 support in November dis
f;nc,iye Weaver and Chambers ticket, with
no sort of connection with the democrats.
Our party is the party of the future, and we
must keep it clear of all bargains with the OLD
parties if we want to gain converts to its prln-
ciples.''
No doubt Devine speaks for considerapie
element of Greenbackers in Maine. an
told that old Scion Chase himself has made
up his mind that the fusion movement is
mistake and is doomed TO failure. and that ne
means to cut his party loose from the demo
cratic alliance right after the State election
and help make straight-out greenback elec
toral ticket Viewers visit to the State Is
with view of aiding this separative I'M
pulse which is working among the consclen
tious, financial element of the greenbacl
party.

General Weaver Tonight.

General Weaver knows that unless We
can have free elections and fair count it
is useless to hold elections.
The greenbackers may be in majority
in certain State or States, but if they are
to be defrauded at the polls or counted out
after the ballots are cast, of what use IS
their majority to them
General Weaver has stated elsewhere
that his party was deprived of its right IN
the Alabama election by the frauds COM
mitted by the democratic party Our peo-
pie would be pleased to hear from Gen.
Weaver tonight about this matter. They
would like to have the story from his own
lips, and then they would be glad TO hear
him explain how it is that he can support
the democratic party in Maine. after hav'
ing been so shamefully defrauded by the
same party in Alabama.
Furthermore the Plaisted ticket is the
representative of great fraud perpetrateo
right here in Maine upon the elective
franchise, and if it could be elected i
would be vindication of those who at
tempted to perpetrate the fraud. How
can he consistently complain of frand
ulent elections in Alabama if he endorse.
and supports the party of fraud in Maine
Finally, we would like to know Gen
Viewers opinion about the fusion ar
rangement in this State. whether he Think
it is one that is worthy to be supported BY
his party. and why a vote for Plaistet
would not be vote Tor Hancock, suppos
| ing the Plaisted ticket could be elected.

Scarcely republican club has beer
formed, even in the remote precincts. which
has not enrolled among its members severa
who voted for Tilden in 1876. A number o.
active leading and influential democratic pol

A number of single townships and voting
precincts in the central portion of the State
whose entire vote has never exceeded 80 tc

ment Of the Confederate Debt.

A letter has recently come to light writ
ten by Gen. John II. Reagan, formerly Post
master-General of the confederacy, and since
a member of the forty-fourth and forty
fifth Congresses. Gen. Reagan says: ain
the final adjustment we should endeavor to
secure provision for the auditing of the debt
Of the confederacy, and for its payment in
common with the war debt of the United
States" Gen. r is. the author of the bill
removing the prohibition contained in the
revised statutes which forbids any officer of
the government to pay an account or claim
to any person not known to have been op-
posed to the rebellion and in favor of its sup
preston. 1t is estimated that the passage of
this bill would allow the payment of 81 .OOO.-
600, which cannot be paid under existing
laws. And so the united South is working
on!

FusiOnists on the RIM.

General Raum, Commissioner of Internal

which he says:

The Panama Canal Project.

1t can scarcely he doubted that
NJ. de Lesseps means business in his
projected canal across the Isthmus Of
Panama. From the latest accounts
the work of verifcation Of the Wyse
survey was we'll under way, and ny
the 9th of February, nj. de Lesseps
expected that work 10 be finished,
when he would, at once, sail for New
York.
1t appears that our government
does not look with much complacen-
cy upon this move on the part OF
foreign capitalists, who are operating
under the auspices of foreign gov
ernments, setting to work to build,
through territory over which the
United States, by sort of natural
law, should exercise controlling in
aaenee, a great international high
way, from which our government, in
its national character, should be
excluded.
The matter has already attracted
the attention of Congress, and wien
NJ. de Lesseps arrives, if it is finally
decided to go on with the work, We
may expect some lively debates and
an interest excited which, for time
may overshadow everything else
The work contemplated is one O
vast and far-reaching Importance
and We may expect that all mara
tine powers will be likely to watct
the progress of the work With very
great interest.

The Louisiana Democrat. [volume] (Alexandria, La.) 1845-1918, 1880-02-04

THE colored rousLabouts, ship
ped on our steamers, paid big wages
and furnished with most excellent
food, have caught the jumping cpl
demic in this trade, aud have tried
their hands at this ugly game viii b,
ia the eyes of Uncle Sans laws, is
simply mutiny. They tried that
game at Shreveport, last week, but
have come to grief. The Silver City
took down some fifteen or twenty, all
in irons, in charge Of United States
Deputy Marshals, charged with mu.
tiny, to the City. The Danube also
had some eight or ten, charged with
munity, and will deliver them to the
proper officials in New Orleans.
