PROTECTION to American industry and
condemnation of the British Morrison
bill, Mr.. Blaine asserts, is the leading
issue of the campaign, and upon this he
declares the gain Of 1900 majority in
Maine, as compared with the adverse
vote that elected Plaisted four years ago
has been won. The people Of Maine, by
their vote announced that they believe
in the protective policy, and insist On
its retention as the leading policy of the
government.

A LARGE proportion of the Irish voters
of Maine voted the Republican ticket
this year. This indisputable fact, fully
proved by the returns, is sufficient an

Irish detection in the Democratic party
does not amount to much.

MAINE AND BLAINE.

According to the Democrats and their
allies, the political dudes of the George
William Curtis stripe, James G. Blaine
is very bad man. They sslemnly de-
clare him guilty Of all the crimes of the
decalogue. He has not only.stolen rail-
roads, bnt has jobbed on the position &C.
cupied by him as Speaker Of the House,
sold himself body and soul to railroad
corporations, and as Secretary of State
of the United States engaged in the GU
an0 business in Peru, tried to embrOil the
United States in war with Great Brit
tain in the interest of the Irish, but last
and most serious of all he has built
himself nice dwelling in Washington.
According to their solemn asseverations
no was guilty of all known crimes, NOR
ally and sOcially-even to being the
cause of the death of VIM. Pitt Fessen-
den and Lot M. Morrill,, two of Names
most distinguished and honored citi-
Zens.
With such well known bad character
1t would have been supposed that in
Maine, where he was best known, the
honorable men of all parties would have
been anxious to have given Blaine, as
such bad man, a well deserved rebuke.
Did they do itp We ask our Democratic
friends and their dude friends to read
from the record of last weeks election.
1t was conceded by all parties that
Blaine and the Republican party were
up before the people Of that state for
judgment. What was the result? Both
overwhelmingly endorsed. Every coun-
ty Republican, Democratic strongholds
endorse the bad man from Maine. His
own city, Augusta, gives him the lare est
majority ever known in its history. The
result is a complete REPUTATION of all the
charges against the character OF the
Republican candidate, as it shows that
where he is best known, there is he the
strongest. The verdict of the people of
Maine will be endorsed by the country
at large in November.

The expenses of the Republican cam
paign In Maine this year was $5,472 less
than in 1880, when the Fusionists car
risd the state against the Republicans;
and the Republican National committee
sent no money into the state. In the
face of these facts the Democratic talk
about the Republican use Of money in
the campaign is ridiculous.

again Democrats in Maine. Ac-
cording to the papers Of their own
party Democrats sell their votes very
cheap. Probably If the party would
adopt and advocate living issues the
members Of the party might demand a
higher figure for their vote, as it is they
have everything to gain and nothing to

pect to score majority Of 10000 to-day.

A SKILFUL SURGICAL OPERATION.

The American Ambassador at Vienna
Mr.. Kasson, has lately forwarded TO his
Government an interesting account of n
remarkable surgical operation lately
performed by Professor Bllroth, Of
Vienna, which, wonderful to tell, con.
sisted in the removal of portion
of the human stomach, involving
nearly onc-third of the organ-and,
strange TO say, the patient recovered
the only successful operation Of the
kind ever performed. The disease for
which this operation was performed
was cancer of the stomach, attended with
the following symptoms The appetite
is quite poor, There is a peculiar indies.
cribablc distress in the stomach, u feel.
ing that has been described as u faint
"0H gone" sensation; II sticky slime col
lects about the teeth, especially in the
morning, accompanied by an unpleasant
taste. Food fails to satisfy this peculiar
faint sensation but, on the contrary, it
appears To aggrayatc the feeling. The
eyes are sunken, tinged with yellow the
hands and feet become cold and sticky
a cold perspiration. The sufferers feel
tired all the time, and sleep does not
seem TO give rest. After time the pa.

bodings. When rising suddenly from
Il rccumbcnt position there is dizziness,
whistling sensation, and he is obliged
to grasp something firm to keep from
falling. The bowels costive, the skin
dry and hot at times; the blood becom.
ing thick and stagnant, and does not
circulate properly. After time the
patient splits up food soon after eating,
sometimes in sour and fermentcd con.
dition, sometimes sweetish to the taste.
Oftentimes there is palpitation of the
heart, and the patient fears he may have
heart disease. Towards the last the
patient is unable TO retain any food
whatever as the opening in the intc'-
tines becomes closed, or nearly so. Al.
though this disease is indeed alarming,
sufferers with the above named symp-
toms should not feel nervous, for nine
hundred and ninety-nine cases out of
thousand have no cancer, but simply
dyspepsia, a disease easily removed if
treated in proper manner. The safest
and best remedy for the disease is

ton of the disease, and drives it, root
and branch, out of the system.
