In q few DAYS the Republican party Will be
thirty wears old. II was born IN Name anu
from Maine takes its great leader on its tllrticth
anniversary. According to dispatch, 1t was
first formally named the Republican party AT
meeting in Strong, Maine, August Z, ls5l' ana
= convention in Minnesota adopted the same
name few DAYS later. The Republicans at
Stronc have made arrangements for celeDra-
ton of the partys birthday, August I, ana nope
that Mr. Blaine. who had become recognized
leader of the party only year later though
only twenty five years old, will be present AT
the celebration.
Thirty years of progress ana of glory invite

in its maturity. 1t stopped the spread OF

sisted secession, suppressed Democratic re-
brllon and killed the snake that General Jackson
scotched 1t gave free homcstcadS to Tree LABOR,
with free ballot to citizens of every color ana
fins elevated ana dignifed labor as no othcr
party ever had. 1t protected labor by ne

cratic resistance. II met with scrupulous hohOi
the enormous debts caused by the rebellion, mas

banded the exports of the country four-iold' and
the imports two-lold.

abuses the sailor can make no progress toward

The new Shipping bill is an cndcavor to de-
liver the sailor from the parasites that prey upon
him. But a serious difficulty is met ut the out
set. BY prohibiting the issue OF advance notes,
and making the payment of shipping premiums
illegal. the law has looScncd the hold Of some of
the grccdcst of the scdmcns hangcrS-on, but
at the same time has created an embarrassment
the removal of which is not easy. When the
average sailor steps ashore he is apt 10 have
very little money coming to him. The advance
note ut the beginning of his voyage has alb
sorbcd a large part of his wages. Perhaps ne
