An esteemed Republican contemporary
ssys: "li there were no women interested
In the case we should be tempted to init
mate TO the wife Of the late Senator Nor
RIIL that she is in danger of making spec
taclc Of herself" There are some people
who think that she has already made a
spectacle OF Mr.. BLAINE.

A ELAINE organ remarks: "Nothpg

cial tribute to BLAINE's popularity was
the observation Of the New York Times
GpropOS TO the Maine election. How does

be true, 20,6l5 must strike the Times as
more Of an indication of whiskcy and soap

A Washington telegram says: WILLIAM
L. CHANDLER wants 10 be Secretary OF the
Treasury. Why he should want to change
from the Navy TO the Treasury is the ques-
tion over which people are studying" The
reason should be very plain to any one who
knows anything about BILLY's record.
There is more money in the Treasury than
there is In the navy.

The Philadelphia Press says: "The
current number Of the Popular Science
Monthly has a thrilling paper on 'How
the Dodder Became Parasite" This is
evidently misprint. We imagine the
paper is on CHOW the DOdeer Became n
Parasite" and is a review OF Mr.. BLAINE's
political history.

Rather Rich.

A special telegram from Portland, Me-,
TO one Of the BLAINE organs declares that
"thc manufacturing cities showed large
Democratic gains on account Of the large
foreign population employed in the mills,
and who on account Of the long days work
required do not make much intellectual
advancement" Indeed How does this
harmonic with the assertion made by the
BLAINE organs before the Maine election,
that most Of the voters among the foreign
population would support the Republican
ticketi Howe yer, this is not the worst
giye.away IN the Portland telegram. We
agree with the Boston Globe that the reason
assigned for the Democracy OF the foreign
asking whose fault it is that the foreign
population do not make much q intellectual
advancement" says:
"The Republican party in Maine has
fought tooth and nail against ten.hour
standard in the Maine mills. In Lewiston,
this very last Monday, the fight on the
| legislative ticket was squarely made on this
Issue, the Democrats running on tcn-hour
| platiorl and the Republicans agairst. The
Democrats won, but as the Republicans
| have III members and the Democrats only
'hirty.iour IN the Legislature the Demo
Gratis issue will be powerless. The great
corporations own the Maine Legislature.
They do rot want the laboring-man TO have
any chance for intellectual advancement
I" u is very kind of the Blaine organs.
after using all kinds OF flattery in a vain at
tempt TO win the laboring.men's votes, to
inform them, on falling in their csjolery,
that they are Ignorant
What Is true OF the relations Of the Re
publican party to the worklngmcn OF
Maine is true OF the relations OF the party
to the workingmen all over the country.
When the workIngman ceases TO obey
blindly the dictates Of his Republican elm.
ployer In the matter OF politics, he immc-
diately becomes wofully ignorant, and
there Is nothing significant In the way that
he casts his ballot.

The Philadelphia Press calls attention to
the "irequency with which suicide has
lately followed public exposure in the cases
OF men who have abused the trust placed in

leaders have committed suicide.

Very heavy investments are being
made in Old Mexican haciendas and
mines.
Grain was green and sprouting, and
peach trees all abloom in Ell Paso del
Norte, February 9th.
Some fears are entertained Of dis
turbances during the approaching Mex
lean presidential election.
Numbers of New Mexico and Arizona
miners are flocking north to be on hand
for the rush into the Cer d'Alene
mines as soon as Chinook winds melt
away the present shut-out of snow.
The Ferro Carril Mexicana, (Mexi-
can iron carriage, or Mexican central
railway,) expects to complete a gap of
twenty-five miles between its northern
and southern divisions by to-day,
March 9Th, and furnish direct all rail
transportation from Ell Paso del Norte
1.-THE gap Of the NORTH to the city OF
Mexico from that date. On May 1 1t
is intended to have an excursion from
the city of Mexico TO Denver, and soon
after another from Denver to the city
Of Mexico.
