THE MAINE ELECTION.
(From the -Ne'C York S,nt, September
1917 lSSOl

From the Noo York 'S,m, Scp.elnbcr
1911 1SS0.)
The election in Maine seems to set.
tie the destiny Of the Presidential cam
paign. The defeat of the Republicans
is crushing. Senator Blaine said be-
fore the election, "We will probably
have 5000 majority, carry the Legisla-
ture, and make clean sweep Of Con-
gresSmen, re.electing the one we lost
in 1873" Senator ulmlm said, sour
majority will not be less than 5000,
and l think it Will bo several thous-
and more" And now, after these
bright anticipationS they are utterly
luined.
This great event marks the rising Of
a flood which is likely to sweep over
the whole land. After this, Maine is
pretty certain to go for Hancock in
November, and there is little reason
for doubt respecting Indiana, or Ohio,
or New York, or Pennsylvania, or
Connecticut, or Oregon, or California;
and even Wisconsin and Illinois may
be included among the states sustain
ing the party whose candidate is Win
field Scott Hancock.
Such, we say, are the probabilities Of
the situation. Everything presages a
victory for the Democracy; bat this
great hope ana prospect may even yet
be thrown away by folly, Incidence, or
neglect. The conditions of a final and
complete triumph are inoxorable.
There must be wisdom: there must be
work. With these, The great wrong of
1876 will be righted and the govern
ment Of the republic will be redeemed
out Of the hands Of the spoilers.

XEsNCAN VOTE.

The next election in Pennsylvania Will be
held Oh Tuesday November J, 1850.
Voters must be assessed two months before
the election-that is ON or before September 2.
The assessors must be at the election house
OIL Wednesday and Thursday, September lst
and 2nd, from 10 o'clock A. NJ. to o'clock P. N.
of each day, for the purpose of correcting the
list of voters, by adding names thereto or strik-
ing them of.
The committee men Of the respective election
districts should attend at the time the assessor
sits to correct the list.
To secure their votes voters must have PAID
a state or county tax one month before the
election and within the two years immediately
preceding the date OF one month before the
election The last day for paving tax this year
is October 2nd.
Members Of Democratic state, county and
city committees shcald see 10 it that every .yot-
er Of our party has complied with the law.
Failure to pay tax in season deprives the
voter of the privilege Of voting An elector can
swear in his vote though he be not assessed.
But the neglect may cause much trouble.

An Honorable Man.
From the New York Express.

rom the New York Express.
w e are informed, on good authority,
that last week number Of rich men
waited on General Hancock and told
him they would raise Il quarter of a
million dollars toward the Legitimate
expenses of his election if he would
permit them TO name the secretary of
the treasury should he he elected pres
ident.
General Hancock was told that while
the republicans were raising and spend
ing vast sums of money in this cam
paign, and it was proposed 10 raise a
million dollars by private subscription
to insure the election Of Garfield, the
democratic committee lad 10 funds TO
speak of, aDd is obliged to depend upon
the spontaneous enthusiasm of the
people for contributions.
General Hancock listened to their
statement with respect, and courteous.
ly replied: "Gentlemen, | must de-
cline your offer. If elected to tie
Presidency l must take the C1lice un-
pledged"
That was the proper answer for a
patriot. 1t was the decision of an
honest man. Garfield gave himself
away for 1929, and sold the hand that
held "the purse strings of the nation
for a 5, ,0G0 fee. General Hancock re
fused to mortgage a single seat in his
tiaet for &250,O00 even to insure his
election to the Presidency. 1t requir-
es no spectacles to see the difference
between the two candidates.
The republicans are carrying on their
campaign with money. They have
wrung every dollar they can press out
Of 100000 federal officers and employ
ees. They are trying to raise q mil.
lion more to buy votes in Ohio and
Indiana. Marshall Jewell declared
before the republican conference in
this city that he should conduct this
campaign con cash principles" This
is republicanism.
The democratic committee has no
funds to meet this expenditure OF
money by the republican manageyie. It
depends solely on tie intelligence and
patriotism aad principle OF the Amer
lean people for support. And General
Hancock, The democratic candidate
for president, the hero statesman, re-
fuses to barter q siag'eo0jsc for $3.50, 600,
evcn Mough it n1ig't secure his cIcctjou.
Henry Clay electrified the country
by saying he would rather be right
than be president. 1t was left for
Winfield Scott Hancock to refuse
