the Greedy expedition far surpasses in i'm
portance, completeness and scope, that done
BY any other on record. II has shown the
fallacy Of the old belief that fatal diseases,
especially scurvy, were necessarily incident
to Arctic life, and that life there was con-
stantly mensced by the great cold. Ii has
also shown that with discipline, suitable
clothing, proper and abundant food, and
good, suitably warmed house men eau live
there, in perfect health and comfort for q
considerable period Of time
General Hazen further states that Lieut..
Greely literally accomplished everything he
was sent to do in two years. He was at
Lady Franklin Bay, maintaining proper dis
cipline, without more serious frosting or
discomfort than is experienced every winter
in Dakota, without serious illness or dis
comfort of any member Of the party. and
bringing them ell safely and well with all
the records and instruments for final COM
parison to the point where his responsibility
ended. Greely's expedition has solved the
question Of Arctic exploration of the future,
and with the additional precautions Of ju-
diciousiy locating suitable depots and hous-
es, the party never passing beyond until this
is done, Arctic exploration will be robbed of
its dangers and apprehension.
There seems to be growing dIssatis-
faction with the selection of Edmund Will
son, Esq, Of Thomaston, as the member Of
the Democratic National Committee from
this State.
Among the latest attacks on him, by his
own party press, is Portland special TO
the Boston Herald, which was afterwards
copied into the Bangor Commercial-The
dispatch says For a great many wears al
most every young man Of education and in
luence went. as if by an irresistible sttrac-
ton, into the Republican ranks. In the
colleges and higher schools this was con-
spicuously shown. Now this is changed
Some bright Young men now become indie
pendent Republicans for the present, others
become Democrats. and the Democratic par
~ encourages this changed tendency by put
ting in the powerful position of National
Committeeman a venerable fossil - wears old
a man who saws he doesn't know whether il
will pay TO make an active fight in this State
or not, and who depends more on money
than ideas in politics. and a man whose
geniality renders him very susceptible TO the
personal influences of shrewd political OPP
ponents. So the Bangor Commercial
speaks out plainly against Mr.. Wilson. and
there is general growing which does no;
promise well for the result Of the campaign"
This is little severe on a man who has
crawled through the mire with his party for
fifty years and is presumed to have learned
wisdom from experience.
Clearly it is the man without experience
and with no past record that the Democracy
are irving to boom this year.

Very it,.e interest is taken here in the
nomination Of John F. St. John for the
Presidency. BY the Prohibitioni>is. While
Hancock County j, in no way lacking in in
,erest oh the grea: question Of temperance
and as strongly favors strict prohibitory
laws as any portion Of the country, vet the
feeling among the temperance people here,
is that Mr. Blaine is in accord with them
and that il would be unwise to throw away
their votes BY supporting another candi-
date. No one doubts the sincerity of Gen.
Neal Dow on the question of temperance
and probably no man in the country is more
sensitive than he, over the nomination of
candidate for a state. or national position,
who is not in accord with him on this
question. After many years of close OBJ
servation of the public and private life of
Mr. Blaine. Gen. Dow fully endorses him,
and the same may be said Of the other
prominent temperance workers in the state
1t is therefore Of little Importance, in
Maine. that Mr. ST. John feels called on TO
lead separate party IN the interest Of
prohibition.
