A CONVERT who can give good reasons
for the faith that Is in him, is valuable
addition to any society or organization.
On election day, Paris gentleman, we
should say flfty years OF age, voted the Re-
publican ticket and one son who is q voter
carried q similar ballot. The old gentle
man had always been q Democrat, and
these two Republican votes were sur.
prise to many In both parties. In speak
ing OF the matter, the father said he had
five sons, whose welfare he believed would
be better conserved by Republican associs.
tions. He admitted that the Republican
party was not perfect, but he believed that
1t was nearest the true temperance party,
and that 1t gave better promise to young
men than the old Democratic party gave.
He was opposed to the State steal and to
the spirit Of lawlessness which seemed to
have taken possession Of the Pusionists.
He therefore proposed to vote the Repub-
lican ticket, and to train his boys up In
Republican associations. We also admit,
that the Republican party Is not perfect;
lut any person who will look at the young
men in this section and compare those who
vote the Republican ticket with those who
vote the Fusion ticket, on the points Of
temperance, honesty and virtue, will at
once see that the gentleman was right in
his conclusions. The perpetuity and use
fulness Of the Republican party depend up
on its power to retain this class Of young
men in its ranks, to give an honest and
economical administration of affairs to the
country, and to add those Of similar good
character to its numbers.

A SIGNIFICANT ADMISSION.

Hon. +. W. Hill, fsther-in-lsw and chief
adviser OF Governor Plsisted, In an inter
view with reporter OF the LewistonJoHr-
nal, explains the Fusion defeat this year as
follows;
"The chief cause OF our [Fusionl defeat was
the difficulty in getting our men 10 come 10 the
our voters. There had been too much money
used In lsSO. VOTERS HUNG RACK N The Ex-
FECrArfON Up GETTING SOME MONEY! BEfosE
COMING OUT"
Money in a campaign is sure 20 injure
the party using 1t, unless Il be honestly
and judiciosuly expended. As all know
there are legitimate campaign expenses TO
be met. The expenses of getting voters
home ofefecting an organization ofprint
Ing ballots; OF getting distant and aged
voters 10 the polls-these are legitimate.
But the paying OF wages 10 men for lesy-
Ing their days work and giving tb,m
money 70 take an interest in n after
where every citizen should have an equal
concern is demoraliZing. 1t has lust the
effect Mr.. Hill complains OF, II not only
affects the man who has received the mon
ey, but all Of his neighoors, and finally the
whole town becomes diSsfected. II one
man Is paid for sach work, another is en-
titled 10 similar compensation and COM
plains and is dissatisfied IL he is not CON-
Pensa'ed. 1t was charged. two years ago,
that money defeated the Republican ticke.
but We regarded it as simply the cry of a
defeated party. This admission Of Mr..
III shows that the char was just; and
:. -,S0 ',' ,HA' ~nA' we -fgue above n regard
~. '',' expenditures is correct
- ok no interest in Mr.. Plaisted
y Fusion campaign, would not leave
cir occupations and vote unless they
were paid; and many who had become dis
gusted at such management in the prev
ious campaign turned squarely around and
voted with the Republicans.

By recount of votes in Brownfleld and
an Unexpectedly large majority in Sweden,
:. c. hobbs, esq, Of Fryeburg is reelected
Register of Deeds for the Western Regis
try District in this County. Our returns
last week indicated that he was defeated
bythirty votes. In Browuheld Mr.. Hobbs's
name was in ten Democratic ballots which
had been counted as straight tickets. A
recount discovered this fact, making =
change Of 20 in his favor. In Sweden the
Republican candidate for Governor had II
majority; but Mr.. Hobbs had Sc votes and
Mr.. Osgood so; giving Hobbs majority
OF 81 and ensuring his election. The vote
as now reported gives Hobbs two msjori-
ty; this may be increased by recount in
Denmark, as it is reported that Hobbs ran
ahead in that town, the same as in Brown
field.

SOME of the out of Maine journals are
irving 20 prove that the recent Republican
victory was Blaine triumph and others
the contrary. We attribute the result not
20 Mr.. Blaine nor TO any other man The
people were thoroughly aroused and de-
termined 10 put sn end 10 the mongrel
government which disgracCd the State.
They made victory by personal interest
and active work. So far as the State or
ganization and management Of the cam
paign went, as we understand IL, Mr..
Blaine had nothing 70 do. He had retired
from the State Committee and Senator
Frye was elected Chairman. Col. Dow OF
Portland and an effective Executive Com
mittee, managed the details OF the cam
paign, and 10 them is due the credit OF our
State organization. Mr.. Blaine's speeches
in the campaign created the enthusiasm
which always greets his personal efforts /;
but they did no more TO carry the day than
the addresses OF our younger and active
men. II Mr.. Blaine is candidate for the
Presidency At the next National Republican
Convention, no doubt the Republican sue
cess in Maine will help his cause. We
hope il will. If Mr.. Blaine is the Repub-
lican candidate for President, this State
will be proud to support him by an even
greater majority than that given this year.
We shall all be proud to support him, but
he is not such an important factor in our
State politics that every triumph or defea:
should be attributed 10 his personal efforts
or his indifference.
