Irish.American Movement.

The lrish-Amercan movement in favor
of Blaine and Logan is bound to make
itself felt in this campaign. 1t has taken
deep root in our politics and is growing
rapidly 1t has its able newspaper or
gans. several of which are now before us,
all supporting with vigorous and unan-
swerable arguments the republican can
didates for President and Vice President.
The wizard spell which held Irish Ameri-
cans to vote with the democratic party
while it was directly against their interests
says; mo intelligent voter can tail to see
THAT when the polls close on the 18th OF
next November a great battle will have
"heen fought that will have decided
whether the policy of Protection or Free
Trade will be triumphant tor the next
"tour years.
Every American who is loyal to the
best interests OF his country will take his
stand on the side OF Protection. If thi:
much truer is it of an Irish American
"who. besides the motives that should
"actuate every American in opposing
free trade. has the superadded one OF
"hatred for the country that has done its

cost of the United States
The Irish Nation opposes Cleveland
strongly. "Irishmeu OF spirit" it says,
"haye no choice Cleveland must be de
"teated. aud the only way to do that
"efectusllv is by voting tor James &.

The Celtic American published at Gin.
ciunati says: The Presidential contest is
"between Blaine. the advocate of protec

equal rights for all. and Cleveland
"whose acts have spoken louder than

In the call for the great Irish American
convention to be held at Cincinnati Sep

Daily Kennebec journal. [microfilm reel] (Augusta, Me.) 1870-1975, 1884-08-06
A Few Reasons Why the Augusta, Main
Edition VIII Outsell All Others
Ten TO One.

lst. Because ii 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 MIR. Blaine and his friends co.operat-
ed with the author and publishers in order that tie
work might be most complete and correct in all
particulars.
Sd Because Col Conwell is better fitted for writ
| ing such a volume than any other in America !;
all his earnestness. knowledge, and ability will be
found in the volume.
ith. B. cause in its manufacture it j. The largest.
best, and handsomest book ever published tor the
price that it is sold for. Let no one think of work
ing for any other edition; never Go for one dollar
what you just well receive $1,000 for; you can
sell ten books of the Augusta edition where You
would hardly sell one of any other.
5th. Because volume is pictorial biography,
and illustrates the most interesting in the
life of the candidate. Our volume is splendidly
illustrated
of the early life of the distinguished and
familiar with the of the boy and youth, from
the statements of those still living there who knew
him then; this is an intensely interesting portion OF
the volume.
In campaign business ii is best that agent be
entirely unrestricted. We make no restrictions or
limitations whatever. But the country is so vast
that agents will not conflict even where the best
canvass is made.
New Beginners
One and all, who take agencies and actively work

handsome sum in profits. Start at once and you
