TEN CENTS A MONTH
Senator Hale in Portland

This evening the citizens of Portland will
have an opportunity to hear our distin-
guished senior Senator on the issues of this
campaign. 1t will be one of the great meet
ingS Of the year for everybody has assurance
that when Senator Hale speaks the topics
which interest thinking men will be pre-
sected in way worthy of their Importance.
He has a we'll deserved reputation for clear
statement of principles, cogent reasoning,
and earnest, effective eloquence, and his
thorough acquaintance with the questions
which are of controlling Importance at the
present time makes it certain that his ad-
dress will be one of the most valuable and
influential to be heard before the election.
Gen. G. P. Mattocks will preside, and may
be expected to have something good to say.
There will be music, and other interesting
features. Let Republicans turn out again
In force.

DON'T Burn the woods.

The cool, damp summer makes warm,
dry fall probable, and this of course in
creases the likelihood of forest fires. Few
people realize how great and how far reach
ing is the damage these do. The statistics
have never until recently been collected, so
that the terrible extent of loss from this
cause could be ascertained, and most people
will be startled to learn that the amount is
believed to be not less than three hundred
million dollars yearl This is exclusive of
great indirect loss by killing young sprouts
and seeds, and in some cases where a wind
fall is burned the heat is so great that the
vegetable substance in the soil itself is
burned. Of course it is long time before
good timber, or anything else of value, can
be raised there again. Where this occurs on
steep granitic mountain side, ashes, soil
and all are apt to be washed down in to the
streams by the next heavy rain, and it will
be centuries before trees, "the nurseries Of
springs" will again clothe such slope.
Meantime water runs off so quickly that the
violence of freshets is greatly increased.
A great part of the fires set in the woods
are the result of sheer carelessness. Camps
are left without making sure that no piece
of punky wood is left with spark nesting
in it. Brush lots bordering woods are
burned to clear them without proper precau-
tions. Many of the terrible fires in Penn
sylvania last spring were caused in that way.
Locomotives 60 dashing along, carrying no
efficient spark arrestors, and great many
of the worst CONGREGATIONS result.
We need stricter laws and more severe
penalties against either wilful or careless
setting of such fires. Teachers should do
all they can to caution boys about it, and it
would no doubt in many districts be good
economy to employ special patrol to detect
fires as soon as possible, and rally help, and
also to discover those responsible for their
origin. If we regard the interests of our
posterity we must take care of the timber,
for the coming generations will be the chief
sufferers if we neglect to do it.

most conclusive answer to the loose talk
the Democrats are making about corruption
in official life is statement recently pre-
pared at the Treasury department of the re.
celpts and disbursements of the Govern
ment from its organization until June of
last year, with the amount of loss and the
ratio OF such losses per thousand. It is
arranged as nearly as practicable in periods
of administration, i'll other words, it covers
the years of Democratic and Republican ad-
ministration. 1t shows conclusively that
the loss under Democratic administration
has been much greater than under Republi-
can administration. In the customs SER
vice, for instance, the loss per $1,000 prior to
June 80, 1861, was $2.10; from first of, July,
1861, to June 80, 1883, the loss per $1,000
was only 10 cents. From all other sources,
save the Post Office Department, the loss
during the period prior to 1851 per $1,000,
was $2.06; for the period between June 80,
1861, and June 80, 1888, the loss was q
cents. In the Post Office service for the
first period the loss was $426 per thousand
dollars, while in the latter period it was only
Is per thousand. Under the head of dis
bursements, the total loss from dis
bursements of all classes per thousand dol
lars prior to June 80, 1861, was 1921; the
total loss between July 1, 1861, and June
80, 1883, was only 80 cents. It is only be-
cause large portion of the people have no
recollection of Democratic administrations
that their organs have the courage to talk
about reform through restoration of the
Democratic party to power.

The Democratic papers aIe going into the
business of discovering bugbears with zeal
which indicates that they have little else to
rely upon. One Of the latest discoveries is
that 6OvesuoE Kobie when young man was
Initiated int Enov.Eothing lodge. Well,
II he was, he quickly learned enough to
abandon 1t. He isn't the kind of man to
stay in any bad company long, and certainly
he is not a man that harbors prejudice
against any class. We do not think our fell
low citizens who come from over the sea are
now so much concerned about the know
nothing madness of thirty years ago as about
the narrowness and bigotry of to-day of
which they are the victims as certainly as
the Democratic party dominates one of their
number for Office. Considering the support
they have given that party in this State they
have been very meanly treated. There Is
not one among them who can be nominated

I'VE need change" says Judge Redman,
ga change that will bring back the welcome

1t not been for the Republican Senate the
last session of Congress would probably
have given us a change change to free
trade Ia ships, an amendment with that in
view having been tackled on to the Dingley
shipping bill by the Democratic House.

Frank Hurd has been re-nominated, but
under circumstances which make his cleo
ton exceeding doubtful. The convention
is described AS one of the most riotous and
disorderly mobs which ever assembled in
the State OF Ohio. 1t was packed with To-
ledo roughs, one Of whom drew revolver
on an anti-Hurd delegate while he was max

Before Mr.. Hurd was nominated all the
delegates from Erie county had withdrawn,
declaring that they would vote for the Re-

Facts coming to the knowledge of the Re-
publican State committee which led them to
believe that the Democrats were planning to
repeat the trick of 1880 and deluge the State
with money the last week of the campaign,
the committee issued circulars warning the
Republicans to be on their guard. One Of
them came into possession of the Argus,
and yesterday it kindly published it, coupled
with some general observations on the sub
ject Of bribery which 1t is to be hoped the
Democrats will give heed to.
The Portland daily press., 1884-08-22

When the Hon. William Slade informed
the Argus that he did net want his speech
printed it heaved sigh of relief, and wrote
this; "We regret that Mr.. Slade did not
want his speech printed, for it is most able
and mastery one."

"The Republicans whitewash their GRIM
inals," asserts the Democratic candidate for
governor. Whom have they whitewashedP
Not Dorsey nor Brady certainly. The Re-
publicans prosecuted both those men and
employed the ablest Democratic lawyer that
the National Capital afforded to assist in the
prosecution. That they were not convicted
was no fault of the Republicans. The fore
man of the jury who tried them, and whose
influence on his fellow jurymen was the
chief cause of their escape at the first trial. is
now valiant shouter for Cleveland and re-
form. The wiskey ring was unearthed by a
Republican administration and prosecuted by
Republican administration. Instead of
withdrawing its criminals the Republican
party has always promptly pursued and pun
ished its criminals. But how about the Dem
ocrats? Did Judge Redman ever hear of the
Democracy of Maine making any attempt to
punish the men who in 1880 connived at
forgery and perjury to overthrow the popu-
lar will as expressed at the polls? Doesn't
Judge Redman know that the men who were
most prominent in that great crime are still
the leaders of the Democratic party of
Maine, and that their conduct has never
even mildly been rebuked by the Democ-
racy?
