The Northern states the Battle
Field

The most obstinate believer ia the Doi-
icy of spending campaign labor upon the
South ought to be convinced by the re-
suits of elections so farm that section that
such effort will be thrown away. There
is no chance for the republican ticket in a
single Southern State The South Is solid
for the democracy. IT Is bolted and bar
red against the possibility of a fair ballot
or an honest count. This fact had better
be accepted now, in the commencement
of the campaign. so that no effort will be
wasted in useless contest with ballot box
stuffing and fraudulent counting The
bulldozers have the tools with which TO
carry the elections, and no argument or
appeal can prevent them accomplishing
their purpose.
The battlefield in this campaign IS in
doubtful northern States. \ solid demo-
cratic South must be confronted by solid
republican North. 1t is to be sectional

ern Confederacy. We shall have to meet
them on the ground thay have selected
We cannot evade the issue. Every man
who votes for Hancock this year votes
against those principles which the North
fought for in the war and for that policy
OF retrogression which is the hope OF the
ex-Conlederates. There are occasional
ally men found who object to joining IN
sectional fight, but the fight is here ana
can no more be stayed i'll its progress
than the rising tide of the mighty ocean
was by the command Of Canute. Every
man ought to recognize the actual sltua-
ton and act in accordance with it. Shut
ting our eyes to facts does not change the

campaign. The State OF Maine should
give no uncertain sound next September.

The Tribune says; As usual, the demo-
ocratic lightning calculators in Alabama
have overdone it. They have made the
majority too large. That is always the
difficulty in tree-counting tournaments
like this. Each counter is so eager to
show his skill that he makes the recon-
ciliation majority unnecessarily large. a
majority of 10, 900 in the State would have
done Just rs we'll as 10000. and it would
have been good deal easier for the over
burdened Northern democratic editor to
account for The large numbers have a
tendency to make him desperate. Thus
the imaginative editor of the World makes
the unfortunate remark that the first gun
from the South is double-shotteed. which
being interpreted. means that the ballot
boxes in Alabama were evidently stuffed
twice. when once was ali that was neces-
sary.

There is a big growl going up from the
greenbackers about the mammoth count
out in Alabama. They think the demo-
cratic bulldozer might have spared them
for the sake of the alliance of the two
parties in Maine and other States. The
bulldozers don't care and will keep right
on cutting the throats of the greenbackers
in every Southern State.

The savings banks of New York indi-
cate prosperity among the common peo-
pie. Their reports for the first half of the
year show considerable increase in the
number of accounts. the amount of depos-
its, and in the surplus held. The increase
in deposits for all the savings banks of the
city for the half-year is estimated at 80
600 900. and for those of the whole State
S17,000,0o0. These estimates, indeed.
indicate that the seven whose reports are
given are not exceptional. The prosper
Gus condition of these institutions is only
a reflex of that enjoyed by the great
body of workers whose savings
are stored in them. When these savings
increase they are more constantly en-
ployed and better paid. which again is an
indication of more active and profitable
business for those who own capital. The
large number of accounts in proportion to
the total of deposits shows that they are
used mainly by the poorer classes, Tor
which they are intended. and that a tax
on their apparent millions would mostly
come out of the meagre savings of the
humblest workers.

the greenbackers in the first district. is
opposed to the nomination of Anderson
and advises pure greenback nomination.
1t saws "a nomination has been forced upon
the greenback party by the triekery of
politicians aud the treachery of pretended
friends which thousands OF that party feel
that they ought not to and cannot en-
dorse." 1t further SAYS: The true
greenbackers must meet in convention as
soon as may be and pass upon the situa-
ton. They can then take steps to save
the party if not the district. and. as we
said in our last issue. the district had bet
ter be lost than that the new party of the
people be demoralized.''

No Milk-and-Water Politics.

I Don't think, young man, because you
have seen it in some spineless paper, that
it is unmanly, ignoble. Indecent or mean
to take decided, bold, active part in pol
ltics. Don't be influenced by namby
pamby lectures against meddling with
politics. 1t won't hurt YOU to be a party
man if you are upon the right side. 1t
won't injure you to talk politics. to attend
caucuses and conventions, to carry a
torch-light. to swing your hat and cheer
for your party or party leaders.
to vote the straight ticket and get others
to do so if you fairly can.
Above all things eschew milk-and-wa-
ter politics and no-party nonsense. Men
who adopt these things are political
eunuchs. They are good for nothing but
to find fault. The world would never
have made an advance in the direction of
popular liberty had it not been for men
who boldly plunged into politics and took
their lives in their hands. Our own State
at this very time would be under the con.
troll OF the counting out conspirators but
that politicians with courage and resolu-
ton and will worked from early morn
until late in the night to defeat the plans
of the rascals who tried to steal the State.
So. young men, enlist upon the republi-
can side ut once, and don't be afraid of
soilin@ your hands. We must make these
northern States so hot before November
that the democratic party will be like the
prairie grass after fire has passed over
it. Tremendous issues are pending in
this election. If fraudulent voting and
false counting control this election. youmay
have a much sterner and more unpleasant
duty to perform than to enlist actively in
this political campaign.

One of the prominent citizens of a

sewing society certain sum of money
for their treasury if they could meet for
one afternoon, each with her own indi-
vidual work, and, attending strictly to
business, refrain from speaking one word
during the time allotted to society work.
The great effort was made with success,
showing what perseverance and will
power can do in this rough world. The
local paper says: Though
the sighs and groans were many
and heartrending, the laughing
grew quite dangerous; though at times
the quiet was quite funereal, again the
click of the knitting-needles, the rustic
of The fancy work or the winding of
yarn would make it quite lively. Only

were forced to literally place a marble
