exception Of the Tribune.
If the Democrats nominate an ac-
ceptable candidate, New York State
will cast her electoral vote against
Blaine. In Michigan il seems a
settled fact that the Democrats and
Nationals will form an alliance and
nominate a joint electoral and State
ticket, and if those parties named, or
ganize and do their duty, they will
defeat the Republicans in this State.
Butler will carry Massachusetts. The
Republicans have hardly State that
they can count on as sure TO return
Republican electors. The Republi-
cans have to fight along the entire
limo this fall. They will not be able
to throw their main strength in enc
or two States. Iowa is n doubtful
State. Democracy has the best
chance of carrying Indiana. The
people seem DESTROYS of change, and
if the Democratic national convention
but does its duty, the government of
this country will pass into the hands
of the Democracy. The election of
Blaine would prove a misfortune to
this couptry.

MOnaghan,s Mill Burned.

Late last Sunday night, the Middle
Island life saving crew watch discov-
cred Monaghan's mill, OH the main
land, opposite the island, was OH fire.
The crew Immediately rowed over,
gave the alarm, and then went to
work to help conquer the flames.
The fire had, however, got such head
way, that it was impossible to save
the mill, which was destroyed. Some
lumber OH the dock was also burned.
How the fire originated is not known,
but it is believed spark must have
lodged amid some cedar bark, and
being famed by the wind, caused the
fire. Atten o'clock at night there
was no sign of fire. The engine and
parts of the saving machinery are
not materially injured, and appear to
have been saved by a Babcock fire
extinguisher which bursted and put
out the fire in its immediate vicinity.
Mr.. Monaghan's loss is about $1,000,
with no insurance. IL is not yet de-
termined whether the mill will be re-
built.

EASTWARD no!
TO the White Mountains and Sea Shore
A Delightful way Of Spending
Ones Summer Vacation.

The Michigan Central Railroad
Company, which operates the popular
Niagara Falls Route" announces its
series of pleasure excursions to the
White Mountains and sea shore for
the season of 1884. The excursions
will be three in number, the dates OF
departure being Wednesday, June 25,
Tuesday, July Is, and Tuesday, Au-
gust 5. For the past five or six years
these excursions have been features of
this road which have rendered to pop
ularize it more than anything else.
Thousands of the best people Of the
west, north and south have availed
themselves of the opportunities thus
offered and spent from two to eight
weeks in making the trip, invariably
returning refreshed, invigorated and
wholly satisfied. Hundreds of testi-
monials have been written expressive
of qualification and highly commend
ing the company for the excellent
provisions made for the comfort of ex-
cursionists. The company is enabled
to offer for the coming series of ex-
cursions new routes and attractions
which cannot but be appreciated.
Among the points of interest to be
visited may be mentioned Niagara
Falls, where the train will cross the
new and famous cantilever bridge
Toronto, the st. Lawrence river, the
beautiful islands and famous rapids of
the ST. Lawrence, Montreal, Quebec,
Lake Memphremagog, Bethlehem,
White and Franconia mountains, Fa-
byans, Mount Washington, North
Conway, Sebago and Crystal Lake,
Portland, Old Orchard Beach, Rye
Beach, Portsmouth, Isle of Shoals
and nearly all the principal resorts Of
the Atlantic coast. It would be ex-
ceedingly difficult to map out more
delightful trip OH the American con-
tinent, especially at the remarkable
low rates offered by the Michigan
Central, viz: from Toledo, 1923, and
from Detroit s22 round trip, with cor.
low rates on all connecting
lines.
Mr.. NJ. G. Roach, the Southern Pas
senger Agent of the road, Mr.. f. H.
Michigan Passenger Agent,
and Mr.. w. H. Greegor, Travelling
Passenger Agent, will personally con.
duct the excursions and give their
patrons the benefit Of their experience
and knowledge of the route. Prior

Two weeks ago we made few re
marks in regard to granting licenses
to street men, and we stated our opin
ion that the Council ought to see tina
such nuisances were stopped. Fol
having the terrible audacity to make
suggestion to the Council, regarding
the streets, the Journal speaks of III
in this fashion. ats course savors O
prejudice, and exhibits malice borr
of pure ignorance or fancied wrong
The Journal appears badly disordered
because we ventured our opinion con-
corning these street men and what
the Council should do to stop them
but, this being free country, we be
lieye we can make a suggestion rs re
CARDS the Council, and not commit q
crime, and we shall continue doing
so when we see fit. We are inclined
to the belief that the Journal editor.

Der of the Council, whose self-conceit
has been somewhat disturbed, because
we ventured to make suggestion re-
garding the government of this city,
If so, the said person should remem-
Der that this country is not Russia,
and any citizen is at liberty to offer
suggestions, even to such n mighty
legislative body us the Council. II
the Journal man will do what we re-
commended him to do last week, and
consult the back files of the ARGUS,
he will find we have spoken stronger
words regarding street men, when
other Councils were in power, than
we did two weeks ago, and the present
member who whines at us in the Jour-
nal, will perhaps then discover that
we have not singled out the present
Council as target. One thing is
certain, we shall do our duty in help
ing TO prevent leasing the streets for
the use of gamblers, quacks and such
things, and we care but very little
what the Journal thinks about the
subject. We believe we are right,
and we believe we have the privilege
of expressing our opinion on this and
other public questions. Hoping the
Journal may recover from the slough
Of dependency and mental darkness
into which it appears to have fallen,
we bid it adieu farewell Ia, ia,

Republican Convention.

The Republican Presidential Con.
vention took place at Chicago last
week, commencing June Sd, and last.
ed four days. The platform declares
for protective tariff, and continu.
ance Of the war taxes, and, Judging
from the persons nominated, the Re-
publicans have also declared in favor
of rings, corruption, monopoly and
extravagant expenditures of the peo-
pies money.
The balloting for candidate for the
Presidency, resulted as follows; total
number Of votes being $50, and Ali
being necessary for choice:
