ANOTHER CAMPAIGN FALsEHOOD
EXPLODED.
From the New York Herald


1t seems u pity to deprive the republican or
gans and stumperS OF any OF their campaign
thunder. but they will get up more no doubt.
The canvass is getting .'red hot" on both sides,
and the organs are daily telling an unbelieving
public that We are a nation of tools, ruled by u
band OF unmitigated scoundrels.
A Herald correspondent teiegraphs from In
dianapolis his report of All interview with Mr..
English, and his surprise at discovering: first,
that the English hOuse has no iron doors; and
second, that the English foreclosures are base
less as the iron doors. We are sorry for Mr..
Halstead, OF Cincinnati, who has apparently
dreamed these things, and in his extreme anx-
iety for republican success has bean publishing
his dreams.
Mr.. English refused to speak of these mali.
cious falsehOods, and he WAS right, In our
judgment. But our correspondent found other
citizens who were ready enough to expose them
when asked. Mr.. English remarked that Mr..
John G.. New, the chairman Of the republican
state committee, had long been his friend and
cashier OF the bank of which Mr.. English was
AT the same time president, land We do not eat
each other when we meet" That is xll right,
but 1t strikes us that politics have reached u
contemplate extreme when old 'pelghbors and
friends can be silent, for the sake of political
advantage, when they see an honorable asso-
clate maligned. The republicans claim to be
the party Of intelligence and virtue: they would
do well to get rid oil II number OF their organs
which Just now would disgrace u party OF Com
anches.

The result of the Ma inc election is now known
conclusions, and it would be very foolish to at
tempt 10 disguise the meaning or diminish the
importance OF so serious u defeat. 1t is really
the greatest disaster which has happened to the
republican party III twenty years, and it can not
be disposed OF by affecting to disregard it, or by
any Of those cheap cancellations with which
party managers are wont to console themselves
on such occasions. " . The lesson
the event should teach IL. ID, that 1t never does
anySoodt to deceive ourselves by Understanding
the strength OF the enemy; and the next plain
and hOnIely truth 1t should enforce is, that we
lost the election because We had not votes enough.
We do not want tn Loose any more elections in
the same way. We want to carry Indiana, and
we want to carry New York, but we will not
have votes enough to do this If We do not stand
firmly together, If we do not Call out every voter.
IL Is evident that we have not u single chance to
spare, that we need every man and every effort,
every vote and every dollar within our reach to
avert the disaster which mcpances us as IL sequel
to Mondays test.

in throes OF excitement. The assembled
multitude stood with uncovered heads.
in holy awe, while the august father
presented his offspring, but a few mln-
utes old, upon a golden sslver, that it
might be seen of all men. The regret
that the princess was not a prince, il

hope the nation will not grieve itself
lnto a chronic melancholy over the

necessary is to give them a chance.

Four years ago there was a presiden-
tial election in this country, and preced-
ing it. as On last Tuesday the news from
the state election in Maine was looked
for with interest. Conner, the republi-
can candidate for governor, was elected
by 1914 majority. Last Monday there
was an election for governor in that
state it is a presidential year; and the
people looked anxiously for decisive re-
ports of the result; but. up to our press
hour last night, unavailingly. though at
that hour the republicans claimed the
election of Davis for governor by one
half as many hundreds as they had
thousands four years ago. In four years
the opposition to republicanism in Name
has made such progress, that it takes
four days to find out who is elected.
When the crushing news of republican
reverse was fresh upon him. last Tues
day, Mr.. Blaine telegraphed to MIR.
Garfield that Plaisted, tusionist, had
carried the state; afterward, fine tigur-
ing made this doubtful. But there has
been and is no doubt, that the revolution
in public sentiment in Maine has taken
republicans, 10 we'll az democrats. by
surprise. The republicans confidently
claimed the state by from five to ten
thousand majority. No mt dreamed
that they could ecure their major
ity of 1876. But, 10! their hoped for
majority, even. has vanished. AS the
dispatch to the Globe Democrat said OF
it the next morning:-"The majority at
