him this evening, as an expression
of personal gol will and admiia

Mr.. Blaines house their compliments
and friendly regards were expressed
in a speech by Herbert NJ. Heath
ESQ, of the Kennebec bar Mr.. Blaine
responded as follows:

you for the pubic opportunity you
give me to express my sense of obi
legation. not only 10 you, but to all
the Republicans of Maine. They
responded tv my nomination with
genuine enthusiasm, and ratified it
by superb vote. I count it as one
of the honors and qualifications Of
my public career that the party in
Maine, after struggling for the last
six years. and twice within the period
losing the State, has come back in
this campaign to an old fashioned
10000 plurality. No other expires
sion Of popular confidence and esteem
could equal that OF the people among
whom l nave lived for thirty years
and to whom I am attached by al
the ties that ennoble human nature
and give Joy and dignity to life.
After Maine-indred, along will

afction which l inherited from m.

Malone Wants TO be Governor.

RICHMOND, Va, November "a
Malone has abandoned all hope Of
succeeding himself in tie S:nate and
has turned Lis attention, it is Gellev.
ed, to the Executive chair. 4 Gov
ernor as we'll as all Of the other gen
eral officers OF the State are to lie
elected next year. Malone seems to
have determined to make one more
fight for political recognition. 1t is
for this reason that bis friends in the
Legislature have so persistently op
posed any change in the election
laws. As the matter now stands he
has control of about one half of the
machinery in the State. it is through
fear Of Using this III an election in
which he is credited with being a
candidate for the highest place to be
filled in ttat contest that be mas
waged such determined war against
any proposition which contemplates a
new system. To day, for the third
time in the past eighteen months, the
Democrats in the Legislature made
another attempt to repeal the present
obnoxious system of appointing the
election officers Of Virginia. TIE
bill for this purpose has passed both
branches Of the Assembly, and is now
in the hands Of the Governor. This
last effort will no doubt be successful .
The trouble in each of the other cases
grew out Of triiling technicalitieE
which the Malone party took advant-
ageof. As in all Of the other schemes,
this last one gives ihe power Of ap'
pointing the election ctlicers to loca!
boards, chosen by the Legislature, in
stead of to the local juliclary as at
present.

The Most Complete RetribaliVe JUS
lice Recorded by History.


History does not record m0re co.,
plete retributive justice than the re
suit Of the political work OF the re-
publican party with the South.
AfiR the war when the Southern
States had been whipped back into
the Union at the cost Of all their reo
pie owned except The naked land
they walked on, the repnbli ans be-
gan the evil task. Each weak and
prostrate Commonwealth was seized
by the strong hands CT the conqne:.
ors, bound with crafty devised Grains
and loaded with ponderous and op
pressive burdens thai it might be for
er slave, too! and s prop for the
conspiratora. Win an lmpragaa5 iy
sold Republican South the Rspubli,
cans hoped aud believed tfat lhey
would perpetuate their power and
would hold the country with. a gllr
that no wickeduess or recklessness oi
theirs could weaken. They believed
they had secured perpetual control cl
the Union.
But the South developed strength
unsupported by her most devoted
friends and ardent admirers. One
by one the States with the tense
straining Of every nerve, with un'
tiring fortitude, with mighty and
long continued effort. lifted away the
immense weights that crushed them
snapped every Ink OF the heavy
chains and rose to their feet. They
stood at laet in unbroken line, hold
ing fast all the new political power
given them to aid the Republican
party and menacing that party with
one hundred and fifty three of the
four hundred electoral votes bound
together, massive and threatening as
boulder OF flint poised above it.
N,w the blow has fallen. The
South with the power given her to
sustain the Republicans while she
was their slave has smitten them
deadly blow, and with the help Of
four northern States has overthrow
their vast power, overwhelmed theil
magnificent organization and crushed
and scattered their wonderful ma

THE PHILADELPHIA american, firm sup.
porter of Blaine, says, "the enforcement OF
prohibition is much easier in the South, be-
cause the foreign element in Southern soci-
ETY. is but small, aud also because the
churches which take up this question with
most zeal are those which have the largest
membership in the Southern States. A
community of Methodists or Baptists is
more likely to enforce the law than one in
which the Episcopalians, the Roman Catho.
lies, or even the Presbyterians form large
element" This is nothing but words; for
experience proves that it is just as hard to
enforce prohibition in the South as in the
North, among native born citizens as among
those of foreign birth, and in Baptist and
Methodist, as in Catholic, Episcopal or
Presbyterian communities. Human nature
is the same, no matter what may be its
country or its religion.
