SENATOR HARRISON Journeyed to see Blaine.
The original intent was to have Blaine come
West Ia the role of the Great American Pro-
tector Of Hearth and Home. The programme
anticipated immense ovations and gatherings
Of spotless Republicans at all stations on the
route. If Attorney Harrison had not slipped
away so secretly, the programme might have
been carried out to certain extent. As the
attorney iourneyed eastward, word might
have been passed along the line that Mr..
Blaines lawyer was en- route to consult with
his client in the great suit of Blaine VS.. the
Sentinel and at the various stations pure
and spotless Republicans-that is, all that
could throw any st0nes'-might have been
congregated. and thus pay honor to the
'Great American Defender" etc., etc. The
objection to this would have been that the
crowds would probably have been small, if
confined to the fellows that could throw
stonesn

Mr.. HENDRICKS latest at the expense Of
Mr. Cleveland is the confident assertion that
had he, Mr.. Hendricks been nominated for
President Ben Butler would have supported
the Democratic ticket. Being asked if he
felt certain of this, he replied sturdily: II
know il; know it."-Journal.
This same lie went to the New York and
other Eastern papers Saturday night. Mr..
Hendricks positively denies 1T, and Jap Tur-
pen, who was present at the time that the
remark was alleged to have been made, says
that Mr., Hendricks replied, 81 have been
told So" instead of 81 know it, know it."
1t looks as if the Journal had almost scraped
the bottom of the lie barrel this time.

VERMONT.

The Chairman of the Republican State
Central Committee of Vermont gets up what
he calls congratulatory dispatch to Blaine
after what looks like "pretty lively sort of
a licking" Instead of securing the usual
Republican majority of $4,000 or more, the
Radicals have managed TO lose just about
6,OO0 of that majority.
How pitiful it looks on the part of the Re-
publican Chairman to talk about "the I'M
scrupulous enemy" who conducted "a still
hunt" and, horror of horrorsl the unscrupu-
lous enemy was assisted by Independents
and "trickery of split tickets" All this,
mark you, dear reader, in a State where
there are more than two Republicans to one
Democrat. Garfield carried the State by
more than &C. 900 majority, and now this big
Republican baby telegraphs to Mr.. Blaine
that the wicked Democracy were "unscrupu-
lous'' and carried on "still hunt" and the
naughty Independent Republicans helped
them. He claims %, 600 majority, while the
Chairman OF the Democratic State Commit
tee comedies only 10000. Warren Gibbs is
the name of this Republican crying doll.
'Put it up in black type" as Secretary
Kitchener said to the rural Republican ed
itors about Blaine's dispatch to sue the Sen
tinel This Vermont victory is with the
Democracy. If Blaine had been on the
ticket he would not have received one-hall
the votes that the Republican candidate for
Governor received. Blaine is a political
fraud, and the people, even among the dense
mountains and backwoods of Vermont, are
beginning to realize it.

THE Lafayette Journal, in referring to the
death OF Mr.. w. S. Lingle, says; "Mr. Lingle
reached Waukesha at o'clock in the morn
ing. He began complaining at once and
rested badly. He did not arise in the morn
ing, but at 10 o'clock in the forenoon dressed
and went down stairs to see Mrs. Dodge.
He soon returned to bis room, however, and
lay on the bed without taking off his cloth
ing. He grew rapidly worse and physician
was called. Later on three others were
called. Their efforts to afford relief were
uprewarded. He complained Of smother
ing sensation and a pain above his heart.
Seeing Mrs. Lingle's uneasiness, he under
took to cheer her by his stories, which he
always handled SO well. He remained
smiling to the last. Life went out like
flash-and with smile on his lips-at $3.50
o'clock"

SENATOR EDMUNDs DUMB.

When so anant partisan as Senator Ed
can candidate, then the latter must be a
very black crow. IL has long been known
that Mr.. Edmunds has not looked up to Mr..
Blaine as his ideal of integrity; indeed, he
has pointed him cut as a trafficking politi-
clan. But Mr.. Edmunds has accorded his
support to members of his party known to
be quite dishonest, and it was natural to ex-
pect he would, even if in only perfunctory
way, raise his voice for the Republican can
didate. AS the Republican leader in the
Senate his utterances are not without weight,
and among the honest and independent Of
his party are more influential than those of
any man in it, So the eyes of the country
have been on the Vermonter, and all ears at
tentive TO what he might say When week
succeeded week and he still maintained
silence, the g. O. ?. p. grew anxious, and
n0lcns roleHs it pulled him to the front. He
was gotten to the front. He accepted the
position-the Craftsmanship OF a meeting
into which he was thrust, Just as a certain
obstinate animal which declared: you have
forced me to the stream, but you can not
make me drink" Perhaps the animal had a
reason; maybe the water was foul. So Mr..
Edmunds was forced onto the stand to es-
pouse Blaine. Did he do it? He did not
spouse to the extent of even once mention
ing Blaine. He denounced the Democratic
party; he praised the past doings of the Re-
publican party; but had the Plumed knight
bad smallpox Mr.. Edmunds would not have
taken 1t. Sirs, the name was too foul.

MAINE.

Maine voted yesterday. The Republicans
a few weeks ago were claiming majority of
$4,000. It shrsnk badly yesterday, and will
probably settle around 1900. Years ago
Maine was a staunch Republican State.
From q, 900 to $4,000 was her average major
ity for Republican candidates previous to

:'72, but Greenbackism and Tildens popu-
1arity kept Hayes majority down to 16, 900.
Garfield had but 8 SOS. The average major

Crops of Dakota.

James Boynes, statistical agent of Dakota,
has prepared his report on crops, and sent il
to Washington. TIL following is a synopsis:
Wheat harvest i'll South Dakota is well under
way, and while farmers are s%training the capac-
ity of selfbinders, they are yet unable to COM
plete work before past ripe grain wastes by
scattering. Wheat will be in shock in a few
days. Stacking has already commenced. The
yield will evidently be better, but not so great
will determine the exact status of the yield. In
North Da kota harvest is just commencing. in
some localities, while in others it will not be-
gin for a week. Some fields will make IS
bushels per acre, but the most only IS to IS.
The only great danger is the ruthless pelting
alenco Of smut in soft wheat. Hand coun-
~ reports some blighted wheat. The acreage
is placed at 100000 acres, and promises
about 16 bushels to the acre, which is equiva-
lent to %, 600, 600 bushels of a better quality of
grain than last year.

Somebody nee accounted for the ex-
cesses of the French Revolution on the
ground that the nation had become in
sane, arguing that people may go mad in
masses as we'll as Individually. This idea
appears to find confirmation in France
now, in the case Of the prejudice against
doctors in the cholera smitten districts.
The explanation of the prejudice is that
q pamphlet written by a German, and
containing the assertion that cholera is
natures can of Kidding the earth of
surplus population, and especially of
that part not fitted for the struggle of
existence, has been widely circulated in
France, and that the people think the
views of the government accord with
those of the German writer. The doc
tors are looked upon as the agents of
the government, and their object to en-
courage instead of suppress the disease.
A good many follies may be attributed
to simple ignorance under the influence
of fear, but this folly is so extreme as
to lead to the suggestion that it ema-
mated from and is believed in only by

Chief Justice Daley of New York,
president of the Geographical Society,
writing to the New York Herald, ex-
presses disbelief in the existence of the
open polar sea so earnestly advocated
by Lieutenant Maury, DR.. Kane and
DR.. Hayes, for the general reason that
the ice-bound condition of the portion
Of the Arctic that is known to us should
be assumed to continue in a still greater
degree to the pole. as the nearer we ap-
proach it the further we are removed
from the influence Of the sun. The idea
of an open polar sea originated in the
imaginary representation upon old
maps of the early part of the sixteenth
century of such a sea at the north pole,
with four rivers corresponding to the
cardinal points flowing from it, and a
statement made during the same CEN
fury by n Moxen, an English hydro
grapher, that he had met q sailor in a
taven at Amsterdam who had seen this
sea and sailed upon it. Still Judge
Daley advocates continuous scientific
observations around the polar basin,
extending as far inward or toward the
pole as favorable opportunities offer;
for we shall never accurately know the
laws of aerial and oceanic currents I'M
less we know more than We do now
about what takes place in the Arctic
circle, and this will not be abandoned.
notwithstanding the calamity that has
befallen the present expedition.
