BosToN Herald: 1t required considerable
ingenuity to ALLEVIATE public sympathy in
contest with party led by Robson and
Keifer. The Democrats were equal to the
occasion. 1t would be difficult to hide
trap so that the Democratic leaders could
not get into it. They instinctively blunder
when to do the right thing is easier. They
are forever insisting on technicalities when
the public mind and conscience penetrate
through technicalities to substantial equity.
This last stand made by the Democratic par
ty in the national House of Representatives
was against justice. 1t was in favor OF
dishonest election. 1t could not afford to
fight there. Even if successful for the mo
ment, it's success would have been dearly
bought. But it was sure to be defeated
from the start. Therefore it was bound to
be beaten as well as wrong, and to be beaten
in defense of wrong. 1t has delayed the
public business, and deserves the blame for
it. 1t has lost ground by its blunder just
where it needed to gain to have any hope OF
success. Never before was party SO bind
" led in this country. 1t almost seems IL IL
were under curse for it's sins in the past.

CRIsPI, the ex-Premier of Italy, makes
known over his own name that Italian sem
timent is not only not against France, but
that as between France and Germany the
Italians would prefer French bombastes to
Il German savant; furthermore, that strug-
Gle between the two countries would be simp-
ly fratricidal. This, if the sentiment of TIA
ly, and Crispi is to Italy what Gambetta is
to France, would rather endanger Bismarks s
scheme of an Italian lance to thrust into the
Republic in case of war.

notorious rascalities with which the voice of

Democratic rule that electors have no rights

THE last report from the Bureau of Sta
tistics at Washington shows that the def
cheney in the exports of wheat and flour and
cotton for the past ten months as compared
with the same period last year was about
$92, ,00O, 900, and in this deficiency no doubt
is found the chief cause of the present un-
favorable condition of our foreign trade.
An improvement rs regards wheat and -four
had recently begun, according to the New
York Evening Post, wheat and flour having
lately been exported in considerable quanti-
ties from the Pacific coast to Australia,
where the crop was short, and the holders of
grain in the West, taking advantage of cheap
lake and ocean freights, have renewed their
exports to Europe. But this anticipated re-
lief is offset by the continued decline in cot
ton exports, and so far as these two products
are concerned we cannot hope for any
change for some time. But if the import of
foreign dry goods should continue to de-
cline for awhile it would be to our advan-
tage. Against our export of about $9,00O,-
900 of gold in May we have imports of gold
from the West Indies, South America and
Mexico to an amount of about $1,000,000.
Our total specie exports from January to
May were about $21, ,O0O, 900, and to offset
this drain we have received from immigra-
ton an amount estimated at from SS,00O,OO0
to $10,000,000 per month, which, added to
the receipts from the mines, &C., ought to
give us, according to the Post, from 500, ,0O0,-
600 to $25, 100000 more gold than we had in
January. With the near approach of boun-'
tiful harvests, therefore, there ought not to
be anything to excite apprehension for the
future more serious than the labor question.

he "Straights,,.


The Bangor Convention of straight Green
hackers did the logical thing in nominating
Solon Chase for Governor. They ought to
have taken him three years ago instead of
the eleventh hour convert they did. Had
they done SO they would be in better case
now. He distinctly represents the genuine
Greenback element of the State, which is,
we regret to say. still of considerable
strength, has devoted personal following,
and will poll more votes than any other
straight Greenbacker the Convention could
have named. His tilt against the old party
organizations is as wild and hopeless as that
of the Spanish Don against the wind-mills,
but he is as honest and as fanatical as was
the child of Cervantes' brain, and his squires
have all of Sancho's devotion with none of
his self-seeking.
The platform is of Solon Chase's own pat
terning, made up of general truths which no
one denies, of false assertions which no one
can sustain, and Of sophisms as ingenious
as they are unsound. The Convention has
learned nothing from the financial history
of the country for the last four years, and
has forgotten no article of its old creed. The
party is as enthusiastically wrong headed as
ever. For one thing only can it be COM
mended: its sincerity-and all zealots,
whether in good cause or bad, have that.
This sincerity leads it to reject all overtures of
alliance from the old parties, all bribes of Of
flee or power, and to persist in fight that
is hopeless. The attempt of the adroit Gov
ernor Plaisted to lead it into the Democratic
camp, as the other traitor, Marmont, led the
French troops into the allied lines, has been
foiled, and the Straights will have no more
to do with that crooked stick. The love
they had for him in 1880 has been changed
to hearty contempt; ard the tricks he has
played upon them and the effort he has made
to use the organization for the furtherance
of his own ambition and the promotion of
the aims of the Democratic party, have ex-
cited their bitter hostility. They intend to
teach him that he cannot run with the hare
and course with the hounds, and if their
strength is as great as in 1880 his shifty Ex
cellency will retire to private life next De-
cember.
These other UNIV orthy servants, Congress-
men Ladd and Murch, assistant Democrats,
are also rejected by the Convention, and in
their place are chosen men who have never
coquetted with the Bourbons. The Con-
gressional ticket embraces Mr.. Eaton, Free
Baptist minister: Mr.. Kalloch, a lawyer,
and Messrs. Gerry and Averill, farmers;
This ticket is respectable, but not strong.
