Our late victory was in large measure due
to our splendid organization. The people
set in order as to make their wishes effective
were ripe for the change but needed to be so.
When the determination of Mr.. Blaine to
retire from the State committee became ir-
revocable, it was a very natural thing that
Senator Frye should take his place, but no
man knew better than he how impossible it
was to add to his great labor as Senator the
immense work Of making an organization all
over the Stase such as was absolutely need
full. He had the sound judgment to decline
to act unless Col. F. N. Dow would assume
that tremendous task. The result is

sense. Senator Frye well says that four
fifths of the credit is due to Mr. Dow. The
organization was systematic, thorough and

lowed. Col. Dow was simply untiring

The Lewiston Journal says: The Ar
gus explains the fusion defeat on Monday
by charging that all the republicans
bought votes and lavishly used money.
The republicans did not have one-fourth
as much money as the fusionists had two
years ago, and scarcely enough to pay for
getting home absent voters and defraying
the ordinary expenses of the campaign.
So far as can be ascertained the fusionists
had nearly as much money as the republi-
cans. All the talk about bribery of the
5000 voters, who by changing from the
fusion to the republican side. or by stay
ing at home. brought about the result of
Monday, is the greatest nonsense"
