Saccarappa.

Monday afternoon as Mr.. J. Mcclellan was
hauling logs to the mills at this village with a
pair of horses, his team got stuck ON the Port
lane & Rochester railroad on Saro street as
the easterly bound train. due here at 8. 10, was
approaching. He unhitched his horses from
the seds and sent man up the track to signal
the train, but the engineer failed to see the
signals and the engine collided with the logs
which with the sleds were hurled to each side
of the rails and the train was brought to full
stop. The cow-catcher on the engine was
broken, but no further damage resulted to any
part of the train.
The grocery team belonging to w. i. PEN
nell, Cumberland Mills, was run into on Brown
street in that village, by the westerly bound
train on the Portland & Ogdensburg road
Tuesday forenoon. The horse was killed and
pung completely wrecked. The driver had
left the team to call at house near by for

Can't. Chase for Mayor.

Mr. EDIroR,-I notice in the PRESS OF today
that it is proposed to run ex-Gov. Garcelon Tor
Mayor of Lewiston, and ex-Councillor Fogg,
B. p L.. for Mayor of Auburn, and it has &C.
Cured to me that it would be eminently prop
er for the Democrats and their Greenback
friends to show their adhesion to and approval
of the honorable ~ and partisan labors Oh
their ex- Councillor Capt. Chas. FL. Chase, py
nominating him for the Office of Mayor for the
coming year. Undoubtedly Mayor Walker
would not hesitate to withdraw in favor OF SO
distinguished a gentleman as Capt. Chase. lie
is certainly deserving of as much reward from
his party as either Gov. Garcelon or Counciiior
Fogg, for did not the latter say at their en-
dorsement meeting at City Hall, i'll referring
to the acts of the Governor and Council that
the Captain stood up like man and was de-
serving of all praise at the hands OF the Fort-
land people? Therefore can they and will they
ignore his valuable services by counting MN
out" of the nomination for Mayor. we trust
not, and hope they will give all democrats. s,
Greenbackers, and even Republicans, GHahIo
to show how much they appreciate ms hlgny
honorable (?) and disinterested efforts TO turn
the State over to fusion and disgrace.

The Aub,lrn F1lSiOniStS.

The Auburn Fusionists held caucus Satur'
day evening to prepare for the coming mum
cipal campaign. Judge Morrill, presided and
Fogg made most of the talk. In the course OF
his remarks he defed the state authorities to
arrest him. "Why, the Republicans would
arrest me and Pillsbury if they dared to. Let
them try it if they dare shouted this windy
statesman. He said there couldn't be found
in the State Prison at Thomaston seven men
who had outraged the law so wickedly as the
Supreme Court.
On motion, a committee of three Greenback-
ers and Democrats from each ward was APP
pointed to make canvass of the city and have
foreign born citizens naturalized.
The meeting then adjourned.
Fogg says he is a candidate for Mayor and
announces that he will 81 end $1,000 rather than
be beaten.
This Lewiston Journal urges Fogg to suffer
no bulldozers to intimidate him.
