DEMOCRATIC FREE RUM IN ME.

DEMOChAllC rhEE NJ VI IN hE'
How the Democrats defeated Senator
Frye's attempt to have the sale of liquor
prohibited at Togus is told in the follow
ing report of the doings Of the Senate on
Tuesday:
The sundry civil service appropriation
bill was under consideration. The SEN
ate committee amended the appropriation
for current expenses at the Soldiers Home,
Togus, Me-, by adding clause prohlb-
ting the sale of alcoholic liquor on terri
tory ceded to the United States for the
Home.
Mr.. Beck raised a question Of order
against the amendment that it involved
general legislation.
Mr.. Frye hoped the question would not
be interposed, and Mr.. Blair suggested
modification of the clause so as to make
it less Objectionable to Mr.. Beck.
The latter insisted upon having de.
cision upon the point of order, and said
he knew how Senators made cheap repu-
tations on the temperance question.
Mr.. Frye-What does the Senator
mean by that remark.
Mr.. Beck said bis allusion was to Sen
ator Blair. He objected to that gentle
man appearing more virtuous than he
was.
Mr.. Blair said he duly appreciated the
uncomplimentary opininion of himself just
expressed.
The Chair (Mr. Voorhees, sustained
the point of order and after an unavail-
ing effort by Mr.. Conger to take an APP
peal objection being made that this came
too late) the committee amendment was
not agreed to and the clause was stricken
out.

your duty like men feeling the heavy
weight of the great responsibility that is
today resting upon you, and when you
have made your nominations and this
conventions adjourns, in the name of that
same party | demand of you that you
shall make yourselves in every section of
the State you represent, committees to
take in charge the election of the men
you have nominated. If like men you
leave your plows and your anvils and
your stores, your Offices and your carpen-
ter benches and devote to your country
one, two or ten days if need be, you will
be absolutely certain to roll up MAORI
ty Of 10000, and you will have redeemed
this grand old Pine Tree State from what
to you and to me certainly seemeth al
most disgrace.
Go back for minute; take the 20
years the republican party ruled in Maine
who complains Who dares assert
that the republican party, having full
control Of the covering and legislative
branches, ever inflicted wrong upon any
citizen Of this State, Ever took from
him his ballot that it ever refused to
count that ballot which he cast, or to
count it other than in the way he cast it :
Not human being Who complains
that the free schools did not prosper in
that quarter Of century: Who COM
plains that agriculture and manufacture
were not encouraged so far as the State
could encourage them:
Take the next four years. Is there
contrast gentlemen Why, the very
first two years there was an attempt to
overtum this republic and destroy it.
You cast your ballots, elected men for
the legislature, and the new party which
had control declared that your ballots
should not be counted. What is re-
public A government of the people.
How: BY the ballot, and only by the
ballot; and the moment you make
ballot say what the man who cast it in
tended it should not say, you have no
longer repub bic. 1t is gone. The very
first attempt made by the party that came
into power was to destroy the republic
and take away all power from the bal
lot. And the Supreme Court of the
State of Maine, in a decision which
ought to give them an Immortality of
fame, saved your State from anarchy, it
may be from war.
What next: When the head of that
party-well, don't know what party
according to the letter to Dear Sam it
is the head of the greenback party; ac-
cording to the democrats it is the head
of the democratic party, and according
to republicans it is republican in any
thing but name, that is, as | am inform
ed, but that gentleman the very first
time he got an opportunity, attempted to
strike down! this Judiciary because it
saved his State from anarchy and war.
Now in the name of decent common
sense is there not contrast between the
then and the now, which ought to settle
the question of who shall control the po-
litical affairs of the State of Maine for
the next quarter Ofcentury; applause
