MOREY LETTER.

: Ii the Morey letter is a forgery, tn
perpetrators should be searched out an,
punished. The partisan efforts of th,
republicans to implicats prominent dem
ocrats in the alleged crime seem to be
malicious, small, mean and very trans

place oil confidence has abused his posi-
ten so much as 10 participate in a crime
in order to make partisan capital, that
man should be exposed and punished.
This il a tree country, where no titles of
nobility exist; where hereditary privi-
leges are unknown, and where one man
IS, or should be. as good as another be-
tore the law-no better, no worse, for
being rich or poor. There are scsundrels
and thieves in all political parties; but,
whatever other parties may do, we hope
never to SEQ the day when democrats.
Or the democratic party, will reward its
thieves. perjurers and iergsrs with Office

THE MAINE ELECTION.

Tue state election took place In Maine on Mon
day last and proved somewhat Of 4 disappoint-
men, for Republicans because they had expected
to carry the State by at least a small majority.
But rs IL turned out the Greenbackers, composed
principally of Republicans, "fusing" with the
handful Of Democrats in the State, were able TO
elect their Governor by n plurality so insignia
eanily small as to amount to nothing. The Con-
srcssiona delegation stands a. before, viz, three
Republicans and two Grecnbaekers, and the Leg
islature Is overwhelmingly Republican. This is
at least good thing for the Republicans and
they have reason to be thankful that Il Is no
worse.
But the funniest thing about the whole matter
is that the Democrats claim IL as their success
and are trying 10 steal the wreath Of victory from
the brow of the Grecnbackcrs and place Il upon
their own insignificant heads Well this IL Just
like that party, and sensible people can stand Of
and laugh in their sleeves at the claiming power
