In Maine for the past sixty years there
has been an honest Observation-Disclosures

days they had fallen upon different kind

sided over patent counting machine, by
aid Of which he found thirty.seven mis-
takes In one year, whereas heretofore the
average had been one mistake in four
wears. The oldest feature OF 1t all was
that every one OF the thirty seven mis-
takes was on the Republican side. The
Republican leaders had supposed
that tile people Of Maine would
have the nerve and reactive power
TO administer g rebnke to these
men. And Mr.. Blaine still chung to the
opinion that had 1t been any other than
the presidential year the people would
have risen in righteous indignation and
covered the perpetrators OF those frauds
all over with merited disgrace aud obliv-
