Parting Condiments

In the last days of the session the member
of Congress from this district gave two of
the leading members of the Democratic par
ty blows which will make them sore all
through the recess and give that party rea-
son to pray that it may be delivered from
contests with an opponent so alert and
vigorous. His onset is sudden and powerful,
and they have never yet been able to make
firm stand against it. One of the matters
to which we now refer was the thorough ex-
posure of the shameful trick of S. S. Cox in
attributing to the Admiral of the navy opin-
ions which he never expressed, and which
Mr.. Cox had already previously expressed
as his own. The Associated Press despatch
es OF Congressional proceedings, printed on
Monday, gave graphic picture of tire thor
oughness of the New York gentleman's dis
comfture and Of his clear confession of his
inability to make an honorable defense
by his resort to vulgar and blackguard
repartee in which he fancies he excels.
Mr.. Reed, however, made this cheap
ruse appear as mean as it was in
fact, and would not let his victim es-
cape from the shame of his own perform
ance. The accounts of the affair which are,
printed in another column clearly show
the precise nature and Nervousness of Mr..
Cox's offense.
In the other case, the too-previous Mr.
Hewett, suffered punishment. II was on
Wednesday, July 2, and the incident has not
vet we believe beeD Duhlished fnllv as vva
find it in the Congressional Record. Mr..

We have received, with request to print
it, formal challenge Of one of the engine
companies of this city to another ''to trial
of steamers for $1G0 side" 1t is signed
By the clerk of the company and appears 20
be so far official. We do not comply with
the request because we feel quite sure The
city authorities will not countenance any,
thing Of the kind. The place for firemen to
show their efficiency and the efficiency of
their engines is at fires; or if the city author
tiles wish to make any other tests there is a
proper way to do it; but we do not suppose
the men in charge OF the city engines will be
allowed to use them, or abuse them, in COM
petition for wager. 1t is all right for the
companies to have pride and confidence in
the capacity of the engines that are placed
in their charge; but this is not the way TO
show it. They do their whole duty when
at fires they get the best service possible out
of the engines which the city has bought,
and employs them to care for and use in the
public service.

Hay Fever

Is a type of catarrh hav
ing peculiar symptoms.
1t is attended by an in
famed condition of the
lining membrane of the
nostrils, tear-ducts and
throat, affec ting the
lungs. An acrid mucus
is secreted, the dis
charge is accompanied
with a painful burning
sensation. There are
severe spasms Of sneex-
ing, frequent attacks OF
binding headache, a
Watery and infamed
state Of the eyes.

1t will be remembered that Mr.. S. G. Rob
lnson recently said that the Madigan circu-
lar was printed in Bangor, charged to the
State Republican committee and paid for
either by the Penobscot member of that
committee or by The Congressional commit
tee OF that district. Hon. Charles A. Bou-
telle, who was the member for Penobscot
county of the Republican State committee
at that time, says this is an error. He thinks
Mr.. Robinson has COMPOUNDED another cir
eular of an entirely different character with
the Madigan circular. Mr. Boutelle never
saw the latter until copies of it were brought
from Aroostook county, and if it was print
ed in Bangor it was printed entirely with
out his knowledge or consent. He did not
pay for it, and had nothing to do with il
whatever. Furthermore, he never heard
any Republican speak of it except in terms
of disapprobation.

FOR GOVERNOR

Fer Representative in Congress,
The Portland daily press., 1884-07-09

The commission sent from Madrid to re
port concerning the condition of CUBA, and
the question of selling it have prepared two
reports. The majority think it for the in
terest of Spain that she should be relieved of
Cuba for time, and the pan they recon-
mend is to place the island under the pro-
lection Of Germany with the understanding
that it shall be returned when wanted. This
looks like crazy scheme, and there is little
prospect of its ever being carried out. The
United States would be likely to strenuous
ly object to such an arrangement. And it is
not probable that, in the face of such an OBJ
lection, Germany would have anything to
do with it. Besides Spain herself is rather
too proud TO make such confession of her
own weakness as would be implied in the
voluntary surrender of the queen of the An
lilies to foreign power.

THOMAS B. REED, of Portland.
The Portland daily press., 1884-07-09

Hewett it will be remembered on that day
attempted to obtain unanimous consent to
the introduction Of resolution for the ap-
pointment OF special committee of thirteen
members of the House to investigate all the
departments of administration during the
recess. Before the resolution was read
through objection was made by Mr.. Hiscock
which prevented 1t. Several Democrats at
tempted to find way to have the reading
finished before the objection to its con-
sideration took effect, and the report in the
Congressional Record of what followed is as
follows, Mr.. White, a Republican, ironically
reinforcing the Democratic demand
Mr.. White, of Kentucky-I make the point of Or
der that this resolution seems to be reflection on
the committees of this House; and think it ought
to be read through. This is a Democratic House.

committees of the House. Cries of Regular or

Ir Hiscock take the responsibility of refusing to
allow investigation to be made?
Mr.. Hiscock. do. The resolution is too much
of a reflection upon the committees of this House.
1t implies that they have neglected their duties.
Mr.. Hewitt, of New York. 1t is reflection on
Republican administration which needs investiga-
ton. (Cries of Regular ORDERLY
Mr.. Hscoek. Your standing committees have

gentleman always makes his charges scjthout refec
ton. (Cries Of Regular order!' and confusion.)
1t was fair hit at the gentleman who
made haste to pronounce the forged Chinese
letter, attributed to General Garfield, genu-
inc, ard who during this very session rashly
made false charge of disobeyiug the law
against the Secretary of the Navy, the expos
ure of which placed him in very hpmiliat-
ing position. Mr.. Reeds ready wit in this
instance demoralized the Democratic pur-
| pose compleiely. The House proceeded to
lis business, and the Hewitt resolution was
abandoned and forgotten.

For three years past during considerable
part of the summer season Portland bridge
repairs being made upon it. The question
= frequently asked why are these repairs
delayed until the season arrives when travel
over it is the greatest? Why are they not
made in the spring when travel is compare
lively light? And when they are begun,
why is not sufficient crew of men en-
ployed to complete them quickly9 The
county commissioners ought either to change
their course in this matter or explain why
they can't or won't.

Seea-or Allison in the closing hours OF
Congress showed up the hoIlowness of the

that the Democratic representatives had
been playing the same old trick that they

ought to be played out, of cutting down the
appropriations below the actual needs of the
government with ,he certain knowledge that
there would be deficiency which would
have to be made up next year.

of expense except clothes. Every bed is full and

advice of my physician l visited Poland Springs

did me no good. Neither were the best physicians
OF Lowell and Boston. whom consulted, able to af-
lord me more than transient relief. l gained no
strength and my case appeared almost hopeless. In
