A Furled Banner.

In the course of an editorial article on the
Maine election, the Boston Post announces
that thereafter, if even fight upon State
issues cannot be made under the Democratic
flag, the Post will keep out of it, This dis
tinct reputation of Fusion by the leading
Democratic newspaper in New England, is
but an echo of the opinions of most Maine
Democrats. The utterance of the Bangor
Commercial is in much The same vein. The
bells that rang out the tidings of Robes
nomination sounded the death-knell of
Fusionism. The fight in this State in 1884.
will be fight between two political organic
ations, one carrying the Republican and the
other the Democratic banner. The Fusion
e ig is furled forever, and put away in the
museum of political curiosities and antique
ties.
The Democratic organs are greatly vexed
over the result of the election, and speak
petulantly. Perhaps they use stronger Ian
guage to-day than they will few weeks
hence. But the determination at which
they have arrived will be adhered to. They
reject Fusion, not because of its badness, its
want of principle, its shameless disregard of
the commonest doctrines of political hon
esty,-but because it isn't profitable. They
find that it don't pay, and so will have moth
ing further to do with it. They are con-
WINGED that they can rally greater host un-
der the regular flag than under guerilla
standard. In this they may be mistaken
but they can certainly fare no worse than
they did on the eleventh of September, and
will certainly feel much better if struck
down in quarrel of their own. The alli-
ance resulted in temporary and delusive
success in Maine, but injured the party
throughout the country. They see it now.
The scales have fallen from their eyes.
The future political status of those So
called Greenbackers who went into the
Fusion movement is matter of speculation.
They will seek shelter under the tents of the
two old parties. The question is, which
will they duck under? Those whose object
was the spoils of office, and who were dis
appointed because the Republicans did not
recognize" their 'claims," will go into the
Democratic ranks and carry some followers
with them. Others, who have from the
first regarded the alliance as temporary, will
come to the Republicans. They cannot
make up their mind to serve under the
round Scion Chase. But most will be
found, two years hence, mustered into the
old regiments.

The New American Line.
Description of the Fast Ocean Steamships
Which the New Company is About
Building.

The project of establishing an American
line of fast ocean steamships has developed in
to the organization of company. OF which
Charles l.. Wright & Co., of No. 81 Broadway
New York, have been appointed agents. The
vessels to be employed are to be constructed
on new model, the invention of Captain @.
G. Lundborg. They are to be built of either
iron or steel. The displacement of each YES
sell will be nearly II, 900 tons. They are to be
$50 feet in length, with &C feet extreme beam,
IS feet broad on the load water-line; depth Of
h old, Al feet, and draft of water when loaded
% feet. There will be four docks, each OF
which will be unusually spacious owing to the
great breadth. The height between decks,
where the saloon passengers will be accomo-
dated, will be nine feet, and on the Storage,
deck eight feet. The hull of each vessel is
flat on the bottom and little broader than the
deck. The vessel then curves in from the bot
tom to the loadline, when it flares out again to
its greatest breadth on deckl There are two
propelers in the projecting bottom to be run
by separate engines of 5000 estimated horse
power 1t is estimated that the average speed
will be twenty knots an hour. In ordinarily
good weather the speed will be greater. The
vessels will be divided into great number of
transverse and longitudinal water-tight CON-
partments Each vessel will have accommoda-
lions for about 1000 steerage and 600 cabin pas
sengers.

CONCORD Monitor: The election in Maine
on Monday, was a grand triumph for the
Republicans of that State. The Fusion CO.
horts experienced Waterloo defeat, and we
trust the last of Garcelon steal and Plaisted
Imperialism has been experienced in our sis
ter State. The friends of justice and good
government rallied in their might, and the
result is one eminently satisfactory to them.
The campaign has been exceedingly well
managed by the Republican leaders, and the
good work done in Maine will cheer the
hearts of Republicans all through the coun-
try. Now let New Hampshire follow the
lead of Maine, and will be well.

ALBANY Journal: As an inspiration
and an incentive to the Republicans in this

has yet to be made, the value of the achieve
ment in Maine can hardly be over-estimated.
There is no Republican in the land who does
not to-day find his faith in the party's future

umph in November quickened by the news
from Maine. In every other State the lead
of the Dirigo Commonwealth will be fol-
lowed by Republicans with step and spirit

years. Upon this we congratulate the par
ty earnestly and warmly.

PROVIDENCE journal: The lesson from
Maine, stated in word, is that the Republic
can party still possesses the confidence of
the people. 1t was thought that in Maine
the combination of all the forces antagonis-
tic to the Republicans, with the aid of GER
tain temporary circumstances, unfavorable
to the latter, would result in the defeat of
the Republican party. The result of it is
that it has been greatly strengthened. There
will be Republican legislature, gain of
Representative in Congress, and the assur-
ance of permanent Republican ascendency
in the affairs of the State.

COLLEGE expenses, subject of some in
terest now that colleges are opening, are
summed up by the statistics of the class
which graduated at Yale last June as aver
aging $3,901, distributed between Freshman
year, $s67; sophomore, 1923; junior, 81, 04S,
and senior, $1063. The class in which this
high average was reached, not high for
Yale, however, contributed $4,000 to
the athletic interests of the college. At
Brown, the average annual expenses were
only $3.50, which is more reasonable, and,
outside of Yale and Harvard, two of the
most expensive colleges in the country,
from $500 to 5000 year, Or $4,000 to $2500
for the course is probably fair average.

A Aurderer's Funeral.
PITTsBURG, March 2

PITTSBURG, March 20.
Never has there been such curiosity
at funeral in Allegheny county as
there was this afternoon at the funeral
OF Fral X Small, who was executed on
Friday. The house of Mr.. Ielly, his
aunt, has been surrounded by an eager
crowd ever since the body was removed
there on Friday evening. On Satur.
day evening Mrs. ZeIly began charging
twenty five cents admission to all who
desired to see the body of Small. The
fee was paid for six or seven hours by
a stream of people who k-pt pouring
into the house and a large sum OF
money was realized. The Mayor
learned of the proceedings and the
Chief of Police stopped them and police
were sent there to take Charge OF the
house aud body. Rev. f. Il. Donehoo
refused to conduct the services because
the body was not buried on Saturday.
Rev. Il. NJ. Wood conducted the r
vices this afternoon. The house was
packed and probably ten thousand per
sons swarned the houses aud alleys
The Allegheny Cemetery
authorities refused to allow the body
to be Luried there, because in 1858 IL
resolution was adopted by the mana
gers that no murderer should be buried
there. The remains were inferred in
Uniondale Cemetery, Allegheny, and
more than five thousand people had as
sembled to 500 the end of the services.
