What has become Of that vast number
of Republican Undergraduate in Maine,
with ex.Gov. Chamberlin at their head,
of which we heard so much but short
time ago? They do not seem to have put
in an appearance at the polls last Mon
day week, and the unprecedented vote
then cast indicates that they didn't stay
at home. The truth appears to be that
they existed there, as elsewhere, only in
tho negotiations of tho Democrats and
their independent allies.
Attorney General Stockton has been
asked whether tho President or Cashier
of National Bank is ineligible as an
eector under the clause of tho Consrtu-
tion of the United States, providing that
no person holding an office of trust or
profit under the United States shall DO
appointed an clector. lie replies that they
are not, in his opinion, ineligible as
electors by reason of holding such posi-
tons. They are not officers Of the United
States but officers of private corporations.
The success of the Worlds Exposition
so far as the number of visitors is con
cerned depends not little on tho health
of the city. Fortunately, for all con
cerned, Now Orleans maintains It's posi-
ton as the healthiest city ON the Cont
nent. In fact the death-rate was never
lower, and the season for q yellow fever
epidemic is happily passed. For the
| SeCOuu Week III August tueIc WeIO pub 10
deaths recorded in the entire city OF $780,
900 inhabitants This result is largely
due to the voluntary efforts of the Auxili-
airy Sanitary Association, composed of
merchants and public spirited citizens.
The Camden Courier Office has pub
lished in pamphlet form the Official Elec-
tion Returns of New Jersey for each year
from 1876 to 1888 inclusive, officially COM
piled by the Secretary of State. 1t is an
invaluable book of nearly 300 pages for
every candidate or politician, as it gives
the tie for every candidate at general
election during that pei iod, including
two Presidential, four Congressional and
three Gubernatoral elections. 1t will be
sent postage paid to any address for one
dollar.
A correspondent of the New York
World wrote to that paper that S. Cow
rey, hotel keeper at South Orange, had
in fifteen minutes procured the sigma
lures of iifty-eight Republicans toa paper
declaring they would not support Blaine.
A South Orange man now denies, in the
Tribune, that there is such a man as S.
Gowrey in that town, and says that a
paper of the sort mentioned has been Gil
culated for weeks during which time
only four men signed it, and two of them
are Democrats.
Mr.. Schurz, in his Western speeches,
, being confronted with the Maine election
returns, says that the result is not a vim
dication of Mr.. Blaine. "lt is so much
the worse for Mr. Blaines neighbors. ,
5 This is like pettifogger, who, proceed
ing with an elaborate argument was in
telrupted by the court with the remark
''But the facts are against YOU" ''St
much the worse for the facts was thu
, imperturbable reply, and the lawyer wen
on with his speech.
Only Free Traders should Support CIeve

G j. on, The LouisriGe CoUiey-Joa,aal.
t Men.who favor n continuance of pro
r lection will vote for Butler or for Blaine
the only hope for eleeting Mr.. Cleve
land is in getting for him the votes o
those who favor revenue reform.
t The tariff issue must not be dodgel
G in this campaign. It ought to DO put te
= the front and the fight made on the line
laid down by Mr.. Morrison. IT an nj.
tempt is again made to change front il
the face of the enemy, the results may
, again prove disastrous.
The Philadelphia Record which is
both Free Trade and red-hot Glove
land organ, as late as last May said OF
Gov. Cleyeland's veto of the Undergro ind
: Railway bill "The bill was one that was
imperatively demanded by the business
interests and future prosperity of the
city, yet it is not surprising that Cover
nor Cleveland vetoed it. When nomna-
tod for Governor he was attorney of tho
Central Railroad at Buffalo-in Wander
bits employ-and lie had sublime re-
+ spect for monopoly and wealth, which he
cannot get over.o Gov. Cleveland show
ed this same Sublime respect for mon
opoly and wealth. when he voted the
five cent fare bill. And Governor Cleve-
land Cannot get over" these Influences.
We are rather surprised to find this
frank statement of the Democra ic pros
poets and purposes in Louisiana in the
New York Times, but it appears in a
Louisiana letter to that paper -
can enthusiastic Cleveland man is hard
to find in Louisiana, vet there is feeling
on the part of the State Government and
its attaches that q show should be made
! of holding an election. Meantime the ar
rangements are already perfected by
which the State will be declared for Clcve-
land by C0,00O majority, even if not bal
lot box is opened or vote cast. 1t is the
height of folly FOR the Republican Com
mittee to talk about carrying Louisiana
for Blaine unless they will send from
abroad two men to stand at every poll
and see every vote cast and counted, tai
lied and honestly returned.
This openly avowed determination to
declare the Electoral vote of Louisiana
for Cleveland by the most barefaced fraud
, receives no rebuke from the Times now,
, though it would have been greatly differ
, ent short time ago.
, WEST VIRGINIA REPUBLICANS The
greatest political demonstration that has
ever occurred in West Virginia took place
at Charleston, on Saturday. Ten thous-
