The Coming Campaig i.

The Maine campaign Of 1882 is already
attracting attention in Washington The
correspondent of the kennebec journal
writes from the National Capitol that
'the condition calls for red0uhled energy
on the part Of workers in and out Of the
State, and that .'the Maine Republican
Association OF this city once one OF the
best auyiliarics to success, but which has
been dormant since the Inauguration of
Hayes is to he reGTgauiZed, reinTig0r-

innate relations to the Republican work

correspondent OF the Baltimore Sun says /:

interesting of any OF the exciting campaigns IN
that State for several years past The Legislature

The writer of the above despatch i9
one Of the best informed and most relia :
bic correspondents in Washington. He
doubtless had good authority for his
statement concerning Gov. PlaiSted's in
tentions, but a rumor of more recent
date, made public by the Rridgton News,
is to the effect that the Legislature will
be called together next month. The
State cannot be rcdistrcted for Con-
gressmen, however, until Congress passes
an apportionment bill, although il seems
to be a foregone conclusion that our rep
resentatlOn is to be cut down from live to
four. We see no reason TO change the
opinion expressed some weeks ago that
Governor Plasted will consult his per-
sonal and party interests in this matter
of calling an extra session Of the i.egisla-

Name State Temperance Convention.

The next annual meeting of the Maine State Tenn
perance Society will be held in Granite Hail. Au-
gusta, on Wednesday and Thursday, Jan. 25th, and
26th. 1882 All temperance men and women through
out the Stare may consider themselves members of
the above society.
In Issuing this call we desire to congratulate the
citizens of our State upon the result which the
Maine Law, sustained by healthy public SCnti-
ment has achieved during the thirty years OF Its
operation. IL has driven the liquor traffic out OF
more than three-f0urths Of our territory, where II
was universal before. Every distillery and every
brewery has heen suppressed The traffic fingers
secretly and on a small scale in some of our large
towns and cities, carried on by men of the lowest
class in the community. To secure the prompt and
thorough eNtirpation of these dens of crime and
wickedness some additional Legislation Il deemed
necessary, but perhaps there Is more need of de.
cded expression of public sentiment and renewed
activity among temperance men in those few sec
tions of the State where the law Is now disregared.
The enemies of our cause are hard at work, both
secretly and openly and unless the friends Of ten
peranre heartily respond 10 the demands of the hour
there Is danger that may lose ground. But if
you will do your duty with one half the zeal that is
manifested by the liquor interest, shall both
make rapid progress in our own State and greatly
encourage the work throughout the whole country.
There never more need of Il large attendance III
the convention than the present year. Come on the
morning of the first day and stay till the end
