Fusion IN MAINL-The Young Men 5
Democratic Club of New York enumer-
stes among other causes which led TO
Hancock's defeat, the alliance Of the
GreenbackerS and Democrats IN Maine,
which cast suspicion on the Democratic
party as TO the sincerity of their pledge
TO adhere to the principles OF hard mon
ey." Mr.. +. l.. PARIS, native of Paris
Hill, and son of Hon. V. ID. Paris, for
merly Member OF Congress from this
District, was the first President of this
New York Club. Mr.. Paris spent a
portion of the summer at his former
home. and his younger brother, 7. j.
PARIS, was in town at the September
election and during the Presidential cam
paign thereafter. The observation Of
these two men no doubt led TO the adop-
ton of the above language. They found
the Democrats of Oxford County full OF
fight and thoroughly interested IN the
campaign. Yet with all their work. the
county went Republican in September,
and increased It's majority in November.
This was accomplished Notwithstanding
the fact that for three years the Rcpub-
licans had been minority party IN the
county No doubt the New York men
who spen, a time in this section noted
that fusion with the Democrats sent
many Republican Greenbackers back to
their early associates, and that fusion
with Greenbackers led many conscien-
tious hard money Democrats into the
paths Of inactivity and indifference. The
Republican party, which declined all fat
,eriug proposals for fusion with both
Democrats and Greenbackers, though left
in d minority for few years, again comes
on top by adhering to It's principles Of
hard money, free ballot and race equal
ity. Fusion never pays unless It be
based on a principle.

The Congregational Ladies' Sewing So

on Wednesday eve, the 10th inst, and
realized about thirty dollars therefrom.
Destinations, recitations, music and
drama, with many good things to eat and
look upon, rendered the occasion an inter
esting one. Rev. Mr.. Rice has labored
earnestly and with great acceptance among
his parishioners during the past two years,
and the result has been cheering and en-
couraging. Several additions to the
church have been made. and extensive i'm
proyements in the house of worship dur
ing that time.

WHITE MOUNTAIN CLUB.

At ut meeting of the White Mountain
Club last evening the question arose
whether the fire built on Streaked Noun
tai n, Paris, was really seen In Portland.
| { will be remembered that the fire was
built Wednesday, Nov. 10th, In celcbra-
ton OF the Republican victories AMI \
blaze was seen In about the direction OF
Paris, by Mr. York OF the observatory as
was announced In the Press last Thursday.
But the mountain itself has never been
recognized by any OF the club though often
looked for aud the height of the Blackstrap
Hill in Falmouth Is sufficient, 80 some
argued, 10 shut out n mountain much
higher than Streaked. The matter will be
looked into aud reported at a future meet
ing. There is no doubt Mr.. York saw n
blaze but the question remains whether II
was the one on Streaked Mountain. -

WORK WANTED.

We are informed by 4 number or farm
crs that they are offered laborers at so
cents a day. Is this what was promised
by the Republicans before election:-Ne1c
Lsligi"H.
If the Ne,r Religion actually knows OF
a good. industrious man who will work
for fifty cents per day, We shall be pleased
10 give that man at least ten days work
He is Just the man we are looking for.
If it means, however, to deceitfully con-
vey the impression that men are offering
10 work for fifty cents per day, when In
reality they are offering to work for fifty
cents and board-which is equivalent to
Sl.OO or sl.25 per day-at farm work,
in the winter season, that is different
thing. We have been unable to hire
laborers to do the simplest digging and
shoveling for less than sl.25 per day,
which is pretty fair pay. In any case.
what has the Republican party got to
do about it, If we were inclined to
use the same deceptive method of ar
gument which that paper employs, we
would reply that the Democratic party
still controls Congress, and that was the
reason. Lay causes aside, however, and
trot out your honest laborer-the man
who wants to work for so cents per day
and we will stop his mouth with five
dollar bill at the end of ten days, or give
him his fifty cents every night. P. s.
Don't send up any miserable, shiftless
drunkard that nobody will have about.

A NEW PARTY.

will every one who wishes To see new
party formed send Us their names.-Ne,c
Religion.
Probably they will respond, and when
YOU examine the long list, you will find
that they are all Democrats and Green
hackers. Members of those two parties
have been exceedingly anxious that a
new ship should be set ahoat. since the
terrible disaster OF November.
We have within the past week seen many
persons and heard from many more who
want new party. They want 1t named
something else than Republican, Demo
crat or Greenback.-Ner Religion.
We, too. met such man last week.
He was a Democrat his father was a
Democrat: so far as we know, all his
relatives are Democrats. He said he was
tired of being led from ditch to ditch, as
the New York Sun puts it, and that he
had got done with the Democratic party
until it had new leaders aud was man
aged in better manner. As to the new
party name, which shall be neither Re-
publican. Democrat or Greenback-how
would the "Nep Religion Party do:
There are many Republicans who are
dissatisfied with their party and their par
" leaders. They have poor opinion OF
Garfield and still poorer opinion or Con
King. These men would unite with new
party.-Neio Religion.
IL is truly sad to note how dissatisfied
and disconnected the Republicans of this
section have been since the fall elections.
You can tell Republican every time, by
his face. 1t is true they acted as one
man and defeated the combined opPosi
ton by handsome majorities-but-the
don't like Garfield nor Conkling-and
their faces hang down feet. They have
been all about the County building big
bon-tireS and Illuminating their houses,
to see if they could not get little artl-
fetal light into their sombre oountenan-
ces Yet there are some such men as
the Ne,c RcligloH mentions. They are
the men who have held Offices for twenty
years, and who now replne because they
are not in for life. Or they are men who
have higher opinion of their abilities
than the balance of the party entertains.
The last election has shown that we can
get along without such.
All these discordant and disconnected
clements combined to form the new fusion
party of the last campaign. but having
no foundation in principle, it has died.
This will be the fate of the "Ne,o Re-
lig,on Party il organized solely of dis
satisfied persons or sore-heads. Bring
forward some new principle, and perhaps
we can all line drives" But do wait
till the Republicans &c, over feeling so
bad

principal competitors. Mr.. Reed Will OF
course receive the cordial support OF the
members of the Legislature IN his District,
with some support outside, and lac may be
regarded ~ Mr.. Frye's most dangerous
rival Bridgt"H N-,rs.
We think the BridgtoR Ne,rs eIrS in
making Mr.. Reed the most formidable
rival u our candidate from this District.
Mr.. Reed Is a Young man IN the national
councils. and although he has taken at

that he will be a formidable candidate
for the position OF United States Senator

He may be one Of those men who 20 up

Looking at the prominent candidates
as they appear today, It seems as II the
posi,ion of L. ). Senator would be given
either TO Mr. Frye or Mr.. Hale. Both of
these men have been long in public life
They have led the Republican forces In
Congress, and have, by years of trial, es-
tablished a national reputation. The
people know just what they can do, and
lust what TO expect of them.
While we admit that Mr.. Hale viii be
Mr.. Frye's most formidable opponent VIC
do not admit that he IS at all likely to be
the successful candidate. Mr.. Fryes
friends claim that he IS the stronger can
didate. As our candidate for Represen-
,ative, he has led his district on from
wear to year to renewed success. He has
been elected each time by decisive vote,
and has shown an ability to manage a
campaign second to none in the State.
Mr.. Hale's district seems to De lrrecover-
ably lost to the Republican party. Per-
hsps this may not be alone by reason of
Mr.. Hale's mistakes; but 1t is fact, and
a candidate from surely Republican
district has stronger claims upon the
party than candidate coming from such
an unreliable district as Mr.. Hale's. We
believe in the policy of bestowing conf
dence and position upon successful lead
ers. The second Congressional district
with its large number of Republican
Representatives, will have great influence
in the next Legislature, and she will
give Mr.. Frye a strong and enthusiastic
support.

A PLAIN FORGERY.
IFrom the Boston Post. !

A few weeks ago there were many peo-
pie who honestly believed that the Morey
Chinese cheap labor letter was written by
Gen. Garfield. Even after the alleged au-
thor repudiated it, they had good reasons
for declining 10 change their opinion. But
today, one might rake the country with a
rine tooth comb and not find such person.
1t is now pretty evident the letter was not
only a forgery, but that there was con-
spiracy to make it appear genuine. Who
were the conspiratOrs, We do not pretend
TO say. The chief witnesses in the Philip
examination have shown themselves TO be
such accomplished liars that other testimo-
nv than theirs will be needed TO decide
that question. The alleged Truth has had
It's day SO far AS this miserable business Is
concerned. Now let the real truth hold
sway, and may no guilty man escape
