Augusta Special to New ork Tribune
Ii is the universal testimony that next to the
strong faith of the people in Mn. Blaine, the re-
suit is due TO the tariff discussion SO ably con
Quoted by the Republican speakers. IN the
counties adjoining the Canadian border, where
the people have for many years seen with their
own eyes the beneficial effects Of the protective
tariff the Republican gains are the greatest, With
the exception of Mr. Blaine's own county The
farmers have been made to understand that
their hope for the future lies in the development
of American manufacture, SO that American
workmen viii consume the entire product of the
farms. and the American farmer cannot cempete
with the wheat grower Of India who hires labor
for So month, and this fact was made plain to
them IN the tariff speeches. Worl1men who get
from 40 to 65 per cent more pay than in free
trade times and who get that much more now
than the Canadians over the line did not vote
the Democratic tieketsin any numbers, Neither
did the men employed in shipyards who get 100
per cent. more than the same class of labor in
England. Lewiston, Auburn. Saco and other
manufacturing eitiesin the State have been al
together builtup by the tariff while the Efforts
of the Democrats under the Morrison bill, which
Cleveland advocated, to put lumber, hay and
other Maine products an the free-list, alarmed
the men engaged in these interests and have
had much to do with the result

Correspondence of the indianapolis journal.
GREENsBURG, Sept. 12.-Last night q brass
band, playing on one of the principal streets,
attracted quite a large crowd which in a few
minutes started for the residence of Hon. VIII
Cumback After some more music, Mr.. Cum
back came out upon call Of several hundred Of
his neighbors who had heard from Maine, and
made neatlittle speech, recounting his expert
ence during the last week of the canvass in the
Pine Tree State, He said it was mistake to
say that the Democrats made no effort
in Maine for they were very vigil
ant. Also, that he Thought Butler would
take from Cleveland ten votes in Massachusetts
where the independents would take one from
Blaine. and that Blaine and Loganwould certain
" carry New York, as well as every other North
ern State. Mr.. Cumback Is much eated over
the prospect in the East This meeting was
large and enthusiastic one, and being wholly
impromptu, was quite compliment to this
citys most prominent citizen as wen as a
strong indication that the masses,are determined
to have this county and State give a round ma
jority for the Republican ticket.

II have been in southern Indiana a week,
speaking every day, and sometimes twice day.
I am glad to report that after the most careful
inquiry made in each of the counties have Wis
tied, that there is positively no detection among
Republicans that there is no TRUTH in the re-
contrary we are gaining from among the Ger
mans who have heretofore voted the Democratic
ticket, and also among the Irish. This county
(lNasmngtOnE was where the Knights of the
Golden Circle originated, their headquarters be-
ing in this City tSa1em) am informed by our
friends that we are making substantial gains
here. One of the county commissioners, who
was an Original Democrat, has come out for
Blaine and Bogan, and quite a number of exs
Union soldiers who have heretofore voted the
Demoeratie ticket, haye declared for Blaine and
Logan.

The Republicans are amused and the Demo-
Gratis indignant over the result in the town where
the independents conducted canvass. A sig
nifcant instance Of the effect Of their work is
shown at Eastport, in this congressional dis
trict A number of Boston independents, who
were enjoying their leisure at the luxurious ho-
tel on the island of Campobello, undertook to do
missionary work at Eastport, across the harbor;
Speeches were made by Wirslow Warren, a. j.
G Louder, II. WI French, Rev DR.. Ellis and
others OF the Boston independent committee
and Schurzss speeches we've scattered broadcast
The result of that missionary work shows an in
crease over the last election of 200 in the
Republican vote, and a decrease of eleven III the
Democratic vote, the Republican maiority having
been increased just 229 per cent. The indie
pendents claimed to have club of forty-s at
Skowhegan. and were active there, The result
is an increase of Is per cent. In the Republican
majority in that town.
At Fairfield, another point where the Indee
pendents claimed to have a club, the increase in
the Republican majority is 81 per cent In
Somerset county, which was claimed as an Ende-
pendent stronghold, and where the woods were
said to be full of EN-, the Republican majority
was increased 60 per cent. over the holly con
ducted canvass of 1882. It would be easy to go
on multiplying these facts showing the utter in
Significance of the Independent movement In
no other election will there be a better oppor-
ttnityi to measure its strength as here. There
were no State issues to eemplicate the result.
The candidates for Governor on both sides were
good men, the Democrats having the advantage,
Il anything because Of the Know-nothfng
charges against Governor Robe The DEMO
Gratis had the advantage also, Of the accession to-
