leaving the Southern -ssssss odt Of
view altogether, saysthe Mobile Rsgiaer,
we find that the Democratic majorities in
New, York and Indiana mora than conn-
,terbAlance the Repnblican majorities in
Illinois, Ohio and Pennsylvania Hare,
then, we have the richest and most popu-
lous section of the North, stretching from
the Hudson TO the Mississippi, containing
. majority Of Democratic voters and pop
ulation and possessing great cities which
are Democratic. With suoh . condition
Of affairs we see mot the slightest founda-
ton for the idea that the Republican
party is thetax-paying interest and should
therefore control the Government. e
The Sanford Journal says: "As was
predicted by DR.. A. @. Caldwell sitter the
storm, most luxuriant growth is appear
ing on the limbs on the east side Of the
orange trees that were 90 completely de-
nuded Of leaves by the storm. The trees
will not be damaged to any great extent,
only where they are broken, for this new
foliage will fully restore the stripped limbs
to vigor and beauty. We regret to learn,
however, that some beautiful young
groves were much broken. That of Col.
B. F. Whitner, on his Lake Jessup ham,
mock, was the worst handled we have
heard Of Some thirty or forty were broken
square off, and over hundred others were
almost fatally broken and torn to pieces
by the wind. The great loss came to those
who had trees in bearing, for from third
to one-half of their fruit was either blown
down or damaged, and among the young
trees that have just come into bearing the
loss will be more than one-half''

One of the most significant new &C
cessicns TO the Hancock party lie George
Brown, the famous Republican editor who
published the first free State paper in
Kansas, the Heydld Of Freedom, and who
took an active and most important part in
the protraCted struggle that ended in
making Kansas free State. Mr.. Brown
was disciple Of Joshua r. Giddings, the
celebrated Ohio abolitionist, under whom
he studied law. Mr.. Brown ia, no doubt,
be much attached to the first principles of
Republicanism as he ever was. He has
never cast Democratic vote in his life !;
but he can't and won't vote for Garfield !;
the Credit Mobilier business is too much
for him. He made speech at the Demo
cratic meeting at Lawrence, Kansas, on
the night of the 18th, in which he avOwed
his purpose of voting for Hancock, and
declared that the surviving members of
Joshua r. Giddings' family are support
ers of Hancock, and if Mr.. Giddings him.
self were alive he would support him. too
If, as now seems not improbable,
says the Syracuse Courier, Ohio as well
as Indiana goes Democratic in October,
the Presidential controversy will be re-
garded as 90 thoroughly settled already
that the Republicans will only make q
feint of resistance to the inevitable in
November. Maine has fulfilled her mis-
SION already. What she may do or may
not do in November Is of interest hence
forth only to herself The ball she has
started rolling she could not stop if she
would, and no sensible man believes she
would. The campaign of 1880 shows many
points of analogy to the campaign of 1910.
The tides Of the ocean are not more IRE
sistible than the tides Of popular senti-
ment There was such q tide in 1910,
which swept Van Buren, ont of power in
spite of the most perfect political organi-
zation of that age, backed BY all the Fed
eral patronage and the splendid prestige
of Andrew jackson. There is such a tide
rising to-day. We see its effect in Maine.
We shall see it in accumulated force in
Indiana and Ohio, but the full develop
ment Of its overwhelming power is re-
served for November.
The Washington correspondent of
the Savannah Nesos-says: Until Indiana
votes the Republicans say but little about
this scheme. They are % busy in Aannt-
ing the bloodyshirt and howiing down
the solid South that in fighting it out on
that line they assert openly that they
really want the South solid; it win make
the North solid, is their old cry. As
soon, however, % they zee that the solid
South and the bloody garment cry can
not gain for them Indiana, they viii haul
down their old colors, stop their anti
