The Wing says that mammoth pulp mill
is being erected at West Great Works, by
the Penobscot Chemical Fibre Company.
The mammoth building is being constructed
of brick. and its entire length will be 346
feet. The immensely of the building will be
conceived from the amount of material enter
ing into its construction. The quantity OF
brick required ia about three millions, and
the crew of fifty masons are now laying brick
at the rate of 10000 to $4,000 per day.

10 the Edtt0r Of the Press:
am personally friendly to Mr.. John T. Hull,
the Fusion candidate for this office. If he were
Republican candidate L should most willing
ly support him.. He is seeking Republican
support for old times sake. Judging from a
letter the writer has seen, his friends are using
the personal favor line of argument to a large
extent.
propose TO state my reasons for voting
against him. They are:
1st. He is not the Republican nominee for
the place. Mr. Cram is, and is in every way
as worthy of my support as Mr.. Hull.
End Mr.. Hull two years ago, while profess
ing TO be a Republican, took charge of the Fu-
sion canvass in this city and worked with all
his might against the whole Republican ticket
for pay. To-day be has thrown off all DISCUSSES
and is conducting the canvass at the Democrat
ic headquarters, where he is in full fellowship
with the bitlerest enemies the party has in the
city. Were Mr.. H ull quiet citizen he might,
perhaps, hope to get some of his old political
friends TO support him; but how Ee expects
them TO vote for the most active enemy the
party in this county is confronted with is more
than the writer can understand.
| write this more in sorrow than in anger,
and with the intention that the Republicans of
this county may be warned against voting for
this Democratic organizer.

Our Senatorial Ticket

The gentlemen named on our Senatorial
ticket in this county are every way worthy of
the support of the people. Either one of them
would as soon steal sheep as to occupy seat
in the Senate of Maine TO which he was not
elected. They are all SO much above their OPP
ponents on the Fusion ticket that it is not
worth while to waste ink to discuss the ques-
tion of comparative merit
Fellow Republicans, you owe it to good or
der to beat this Fusion hybrid conern. Dan
iel W. True was nominated because he was
ousted rom seat TO which he was never
chosen. He deserves and will receive the re-
buse he SO well earned by his conduct in the
great Garcelon conspiracy.

flee seeker in the Republican party. When he
was discharged from fat office he turned his

REPUBLICAN,
The Portland daily press., 1882-09-07

IN response to letter of inquiry recently
written to Senator Edmunds by young
lawyer, asking information as to what were
the best political works from which to gain
thorough knowledge of both parties, the
Senator said: "The debates and journals
of the two Houses of Congress viii show
you better than anything else the state Of
parties in this country and what are the
real points of difference. From 1854 down
to the present time they show what has been
done and what has been resisted. One who
reads all this-and it is great labor to do
twill not fail, think, to see where his
path lies.1

The above figures show that Gov. Plaisted
was elected in 1880 by 226 plurality. Had the
Prohibition vote of Mr.. Nye been cast for the
Republican candidate for Governor, he would
have been elected. In November following,
which was the last general election in Maine,
the Fusion vote fell off 1853 compared with the
Plaisted vote in September, while the RepuD-
lican vote was increased 5OS-a Republican
gain of 9067, and Republican plurality of
8S41 These figures show that Maine is Re-
publican State, and that all that is necessary
to elect the ticket this year is TO get out full
vote To do this there is every inducement
Maine is very prosperous State to day. There
is scarcely an industry that is not hour shng.
Factories and workshops are going up on every
hand. Labor IS in general demand rhis is
due in large measure TO the Republican poll
cy which has secured the country a protective
tariff and sound currency. The prudent man
insl,fes mis- property against fire and flD6d; why
will he not be equally prudent BY doing all that
lies within his power to conJinue a policy and
a party in power which has given the country
the conditions which have resulted in an un-
exampled era of prosperity? The election ia
Maine is therefore, every mans business who
has an interest III the INDUSTRY anu business OF
the State.
The outlook for the Republicans is exceed
inely encouraging. They are not only a. work
but united From nearly all parts of the State
there come reports of gains. The so-called Iu-
dependent movement is a Plaisted device, and
is manipulated by small number of ex-offi-
cials and disappointed place seekers. They
have neither votes or influence. Let the Re-
nublicans of Maine, and especially those whose
interests are bound up in the industrial infer
ests of the State see to it that every Republi-
can vote is polled next Monday. 1t means vic
tory. security and the end of the disgraceful
demagogism which may be styled Plastedism.

THE Plaisted party is making positive
issue on the allegation that Mr.. Blaine rode
to the Maranocook meeting on an extra
train and in palace car. The latter part
of this terrible accusation is untrue. To the
former part Mr.. Blaine pleads guilty. He
did go in an ordinary car by an extra train
because with his engagements there was no
other way in which he could reach the
meeting. 1t is a large issue and is expected
to affect thousands of votes. The mode by
which Mr.. Blaine reaches a mass meeting
deserves to be enquired into by the whole
Plaisted party.

Plaisted and State Banks

Governor Plaisted in his Saco speech hav-
ing boasted of his great achievements in
protecting the people against the terrible
evil of State banks by vetoing the bank char
ters passed by .he Legislature in 1881, Capt.
Boutelle exposed the ridiculous nature of
the pretension by citing the facts, Jan. IS,
1881, Funding bill was introduced in the
Democratic House of Representatives, and
one of its provisions was that on AMI after
July 1, 1881, only three per cent. United
States bonds would be receivable to secure
circulation for national banks. The bill
passed the House, was amended in the Sen
ate and finally passed the House March 1,
1881. During its discussion it was gener-
ally declared and believed that the effect
would be to drive the national banks out of
existence, and that was presumed to be the
object of the Democrats in Congress. In
that exigency, with the prospect of being
left without any banking Institutions what
ever, applications were made to the Legisla-
ture from all parts of the State for charters to
enable banking business to be carried on, as
was essential to the transaction of business.
On March 3, 1881, however, President Hayes
vetoed the Funding bill, principally on ac-
count of its threatened disastrous effects
on the business of the country by driving
the whole banking system into liquidation,
The, veto removed all the need of the State
bank charters, and number not yet acted
upon were withdrawn. Then Governor
Plaisted. with tremendous courage, on the
17th of March, 1881, tavo aveeks after the
charters had become unnecessary and worth
less, vetoed that batch of dead billsi And
that is the sole achievement of his executive
career that he has been able to cite or boast
of in public.
The speaker also remarked that it might
be worth while to remember that one of
these obnoxious charters, regarded by
Governor Plaisted as SO perilous to the in
terests of the people, was prepared and sent
to Augusta by Joseph Dane, of Kennebunk,
to incorporate the Ocean Bank of that place
with himself as first corporator, to succeed
the ''bloated" National Bank, of which he
was and is President, and that when the
Governor fired his veto broadside into that
covey of defunct bank charters, he knocked
over among the rest the charter prepared
and obtained by one of the candidates on
the present Fusion Congressional ticket.

BANGOR Wing; Evidently Paisted thinks
lie well stuck to is better than the truth
wavering. His friends perhaps would do
well to modify his whopper relative to the
Reform School so it would be reasonable
one For instance, he said the sick boy
who excited his tears was lying in close
room with the broiling sun streaming in and
making it very uncomfortable. Now if his
high mghtiness, the Governor, will col
lect his scattered thoughts he will perhaps
recall the fact that the day he visited the
boy was one of those insufferably hot days
in February when his Excellency judged it
unsafe to ride out of Portland in an open
sleigh, and chartered a close coach, after
other arrangements had been all made.
We advise his sublime eminence, after he
receives the grand bounce in September, to
apply for position of Old Probabilities or
Vennor. He can improve upon their sys-
TENS; he can make weather to order. II
must be a cold day when Plaisted can't
round out grievance by making the ther-
mometer stand at 1902 in the shade on a
crisp winter morning.

hold most important election. The contest
attracts much interest throughout the country,

political complexion of that body after next
March, and because TIE four Congressman who
viii be elected on general ticket will have

mining whether the next House shall be con-

100000, 600 in one year, while in fact the in
crease is only SAG, 900 and $34, 100000 of
that was for pensions under the law. He
must have heard some desperate guess made
to that effect and accepted it without know
ledge. The fact is, Mr. Ladd has been in
his seat SO little during the session that he
probably couldn't tell whether the increase
was one dollar. Mr.. Ladd will not be de-
feated, therefore, because of his lack Of
knowledge, but because of his total lack of
attention to business through which know

The Maine correspondent of the Boston
Journal thinks the result in this State de-
pends upon the success in getting out the
Republican vote. A full Republican vote is
a Republican victory. There have been but
few changes, but nine tenths of what there
have been are in favor of the Republicans.
The indications now are that a full Republi-
can vote will be polled. There has been a
marked improvement in Republican interest
during the past ten days. AS rule the Re
publican meetings have been more fully at
tended than the Plaisted meetings, showing
a better interest among the Republicans.
Lastly, there is no Presidential election with
10000 desirable offices to inspire the Demo-
Gratis to do their best for Plaisted as there
was in September, 1880. Ia view of these
considerations, and assuming that there will
be full Republican vote, one is warranted
in concluding that the Republicans will
elect their State ticket by a fair plurality.
ACCORDING to the Chicago Times there are
many Democratic parties As one star differ
eth from another star in glory, SO one Demo-
cratic party differeth from another Democrat
ic party in politics. There is, first, the protec-
zionist Democratic party; second. the free
trade Democratic party; third, the hard mon
ey Democratic p srty fourth, the sham money
Democratic party; fifth, the strict construc-
tion Democratic party; sixth, the loose con-
struction Democratic party; seventh, the
Democratic party which maintains that the
sun 'do move"; eighth, the Democratic par
ty which confesses that it is the world in
stead of the sun, which "do move" We
have all these varieties in Maine. Plaisted
has 'put them up'' in assorted sizes.
OXFORD Democrat: If Plaisted was not a
better boy than he is man, he was probably
often sent to bed without his supper, and
kept in school over the noon recess, and
thus deprived of his dinner. His parents
and teachers were horribly brutal. This is
the wholeAof his complaint against the Re-
form School, and that is an institution to
which vicious boys are committed instead of
