1T is great crime for republicans to
consult together, and we would suggest
that all republicans who consult be in
dcted for conspiracy forthwith. The
law is clear, Republicans have no right
whatever to consult in view OF the
abundant proof that democrats univer-
sally "concede" the election of Cleveland
aud Hendricks. and they should stop it
right away. A good plan would be for
them not to speak as they pass by.

More recently the Rev. DR. Ecob for near
Is ten wears pastor of the South Congrega-
ton church in this city, and friend and
conidant of Mr., Blaine. and at the present
time pastor of the First Presbyterian church
of Albany. has published the following letter
in the Albany Evening journal:
Il have known MIR. Blaine since 1872

| mean that as have known him he has
sto cd loyally by his convictions: that his
word has always had back of it a clear pur-
pose, and that purpose has always been
worthy of the highest manhood
In his house he was ALWAYS the soul of
geniality and good heart. 1t was always
summer in that house whatever the Maine
winter might be without. And not only his
rich neighbors and kinsmen' welcomed him
home, but long line of the poor hailed the
return OF that family as special Providence

The hold Mr.. Blaine has maintained upon

"The republican nominee whoever ne may be,
cannot possibly be elected this year" said James g.
Blaine the 5Oth Of last May, reported In the Ne"
York Herald Washington dispatches OF that date

The New Age doubtless knows that Mr..
Blaine branded the words above attributed
to him as a falsehood at the time they were
published in the Herald. His denial went
the round of the papers. The resurrection
of this once dead ialsehood shows how
little there is in the talk of the New Age
about treating Mr.. Blaine with courtesy
and fairness.

Mr. Blaine's Religion.
More Than Twenty-Five Years a Member
ofthe Congre ga tional hurch.

OF all the silly charges ever invented in
campaign, the most indefensiole is that which
accuses Mr. Blaine of being Catholic For
more than twenty FIVE years Mr.. Blaine has
been member of the South Parish Congre-
Rational church of this city. His wife was
brought up in the same church from her in
fancy and joined it in her youth All oftheir
children have been baptised in the same
church. Mr.. Blaine is d constant attendant
in the worship Of the church when at home,
and has alrays been one of the most liberal
contributors Mr.. Blaine's mother was a
Catholic and after her death he erected a
handsome monument TO her memory in the
Catholic church yard where she is buried No
pressure can drive him into a definition of his
religious views for political purposes, for he
abhors the idea of a religious test being ap-
piled to an American citizen. To friend in
Pittsburg ne wrote in 1876:
NV ancestors on my fathers side were. as
Won know, always identified with the Preshy-
terian Church. and they were prominent and
honOred in the old Colony of Pennsylva-
MIA But will never consent TO make any
declaration on the subject and for two rea-
sons: First, because abhor the introduc
ton Of anything that looks like religious test
or qualification for Office in a Republic where
perfect freedom of conscience is the birthright
Of every ciuzen; and. second, because my
mother was a devoted Catholic. | would
not for a thousand Presidencies speak dis
respectful word of my mothers religion, and
no pressure will draw me into any avowai of
hostility or unfriendliness to Catholics, though
have never received, and do not expect any
political support from them.

Few Reasons Why the Augusta, Maine
Edition Will Outsell All Others
Ten TO One.

lst. Because il is the authentic edition published
from Augusta. the home Of Blaine, and has had the
advantage OF the most complete knowledge OF his
whole life.
ID. Because Mr. Blaine and his friends co-operat-
ed witt the author and publishers in order thar
work might be most complete and correct IN all
particulars.
3D. Because Col Conwell is better fitted for writ
ing such volume than any other man in America;
all his earnestness, knowledge, and ability will be
found in the volume.
4h. b cause in its manufacture il l. the largest,
best, and handsomest book ever published tor the
price that il is sold for. Let oae think OF work
ing for any other edition; never do for one dollar
what you can just as well receive $1,000 for YOU can
sell ten books of the Augusta edition where yol
would hardly sell one of any other.
5th. Because our volume is a pictorial biography,
and illustrates the most interesting scenes In the
life of the candidate. Our volume is splenddly
illustrated
9th. Because the author has visited the scenes
OF the early life OF the distinguished statesman ands
familiar with the career of the boy and youth, from
the statements of those still living there, who knew
him them this is an intensely interesting portion Of
the volume.
