A Significant Election.

The election in the lid Congress
,ional District of Maine ought not to
be passed over as small affair. It's
result is in reality of great signifi-
.ance, and has a direct bearing as
showing the drift Of public sentiment
5upon the canvass in New York and
5Ohio. A vacancy was created in thel
Representation of that District by the
resignation of Mr.. Frye, who was
last spring elected to the Senate in
place of Mr.. Blaine. During his ten
years. service in the House Mr.. Frye
HAD gained strong hold upon the
District by his personal popularity
land his abilities as an orator and
practical legislator. With him out
! of the way the Democrats and Green
hackers conceived strong hopes Of
success. The District is the home OF
lSolon Chase, and was the hotbed of
1.-The early Greenback agitation Which
made many converts during the hard
times among the poorer class of far
lmers, the lumbermen and the factory
operatives of Auburn and Lewiston.
jThe most widely circulated Green
| back newspaperin Maine is published
lat Auburn by ex-Councillor Fogg,
iwho, it will be remembered, toeka

Hon conspiracy to steal the State Gov

VERY quiet one on the partof the Re
publicans. They relied chiefly on
1.-THE strength of their partynationally
land the fitness of their nominee. ex-
Governor Dingley. the veteran Ed
Iitor of The Lea0iston Journal. All
1.-THE noise was made by the opposi-
stion. AT first the Greenbackers and
Democrats ran separate tickets-a
transparent scheme for getting the
membership of both Organizations
/ well in tow; but shortly before the
election the Democratic candidate
took himself cut of the way, and
turned over his following bodily to
THE Greenbacker-no very difficult
affair, for the Maine Democrats have
grown accustomed to be shifted about
land traded off by their leaders in
lany way that promises success, at no
matter what sacrifice of principle and
consistency. There is no reason to
doubt that whatever opposition now
exists to the Republican party in the
District was mustered in support of
colbert, the Greenback candidate,
Except a little handful Of Prohibit
'tionists, who had nominee of their
lown. The result was the election of
iDingley by a majority nearly treble
THAT polled by the Republicans a
Year ago. In the September election
iof 1880 the Republicans carried the
lid District by ,446 majority. On
Monday, according TO the first re-
ports, the Republicans scored ma
ijOrity of about 1900, but fuller de-
tails show that the majority cannot
fall below the imposing figure OF
'5,000.-N. y. Tribune.

THE PRESIDENT DEAL
His End Calm and Peaceful.

The tragedy is ended and the as
sassin's bullet has finally done its
work. President Garfield is dead.
His brave struggle with the Destroy
er was all for naught, and to-day the
Nation mourns it's greatest loss since
the death of Lincoln. For two or
three days the people had generally
ceased to hope for the Presidents re-
covery, but it was not thought that
the end would come so suddenly.
LONG BRANCH, Sept. 19.-The
President died at 1875. He passed
away quietly. having been uncon-
scieus for some minutes before. He
was surrounded by his family, a few
members of his Cabinet, physicians
and friends.
Shortly before ten o'clock p. m. the
President said he felt better and had
no pain, but felt very weak.
AT ten o'clock he fell asleep, but
shortly afterward awoke, and COM
planned of pains in the region of the
heart. DR.. Bliss had retired to his
room at ten o'clock, leaving Coils.
Swain and Rockwell with the Pres
ident. He was hastily sent for, and
by the time he arrived the President
was unconscious. He at once said
the President was dying and direct
ed that Mrs. Garfield and Drs. Agnew
and Hamilton should be summoned
at once. This was done, and after
ward members of the Cabinet and
friends of the family came to the
bedside of the dying President.
The President remained uncon.
scious until 1895 when he expired.
A dispatch was addressed to Vice.
President Arthur by members of the
cabinet Immediately after the death
of President Garfield, advising hin
of the melancholy event and request
ing him to come to Long Branch ant
take the oath of office. The transi
ton from the administration of tn,

of abundant caution, has made a
appeal to the people of the countr

candidates are nuisances to be classed
lin the same category with book
agents and lightning-rod pedlers, is
las ludicrous as it is unfeunded. Our
voters regard the candidate as a
source OF perennial pleasure and pro-
fit, and though they sometimes feign
impatlence and even disgust, they
are really proud that they live in a
country which can produce in such
large quantities and in such perfect
form. so fine product of civilization
as the candidate.

and lots. the latter to be sold to
builders.
To hasten the preparations it is
proposed to sell one hundred lots at
$500 each, on condition a cottage is
built upon each and occupied next
season. These lots are so by 100 feet
land the sarle size sells at Ocean Grove
. for S., 900. After these first one hun
! dred are sold, the remainder will be
placed at regular price. which will
be from $500 to $500 each. The SIO.-
loco received from these lots is to be
{ expended upon the ground, in the
manner related and in furnishing
zwater, light, etc. In the short time
(which has already TRANSFERRED, and in
spite of the little publicity which has
abeen given "the park" sixty ofthose
Hhundred lots have already been sold.
Among those known to the Leader
areaders, who have purchased lots,
( are the following: Reys. Masden,
aRyan, Hughes, Fullerton and Snod-
Nagrass and Messrs. Thos. III. Logan,

cottage shall be erected at cost of
ssless than $500, so as to insure hand
ssome and substantial structures. Col.
gSmith, of Parkersbuag, takes four
I lots and will erect $1,000 cottage
5and others will do the same.
Transient accommodation. For the
sbenetit of those who may wish to
stay at "the park" but short time,
sample accommodation will be pro-
3vided. The company will erect a
I very large restaurant, with sleeping
apartments and operate it on the
European plan. There will be also
I a hotel built, a company with cap
sital of $4,000 being now in process
aof formation.
President Garrett, of the Baltimore
& Ohio road, has pledged himself to-
build depot and make mountain

sthat all trains will stop there. A
Irregular contract to that effect will be-
drawn up and signed.

company that this will prove very

together multitudes of all classes dur
