 The Candidates At Bangor-Aa Rn- thus1astic Reception of Blaine and
 Logan-The Latter Very Severe On the Independents.
 BANGOR, Me-, June 1S.-Blaine and Logan arrived here from Ellsworth this morning, accompanied by Senator Hale, at whose home the candidates had been visiting. They were met at the depot by band and delegation of citizens under the direction of Postmaster Farnham. Their arrival was announced by the firing of cannon, ringing of bells and blowing of whistles generally throughout the city. They were escorted to large square on Broadway where three thoasand people assembled and where platform had been erected. Mayor Humphrey presided and speeches of welcome were made by ex- Chief Justice Appleton and Hon. s. H. Blake MT. Blaine was then introduced and spoke as fellows: s:I thank vou my friends, for the hearty welcome you have given us this evening. I do not attribute this demonstration as one personal to myself. We are here to do honor to our distinguished guest, and I invite the hosts of Maine Republicans to join with me in paying tribute to the gallant soldier who, as Democrat, was one of the first to take up arms in defense of his country"
 General Logan was then introduced He thanked the people of Maine and of Ban gor in particular for the hearty welcome he had received and congratulated the people | upon the nomination of one of her sons as the standard bearer of the Republican party. His nomination at Chicago was the legitimate outgrowth of the popular will. By vast majority of the delegates to that convention it was decided that the time had arrived when America and Americans should be placed iu more favorable light before the nations of the earth and the man to do that is James G. Blaine. No man nor class of men can dictate the pol ICY or the peOpl0. The VO1C0 or the people must be respected or we will lapse back into the condition of the efete monarchies of the old world. We need no generals in this movement. The people are their own com manders and those who desert wiA be left standing by the wayside when the great army of the peo- pie marches on to victory in November. The camp fires will be kept lit during the campaign and till the people of this great republic will give notice that they have made their selection and will make him President of the United States of America
 General Logan was very severe on the Independents who, he said, cannot rule, but want to rule. From his remarks it is evident that the Blaine programme is to de- clare war on the Independents. At the close of Logan's remarks, which were frequently interrupted by applause. Senator Hale was called and spoke at length on the proceedings of the Chicago convention, the result of which he declared was one of the greatest popular demonstra- tions in the history of the country. He paid glowing tributes to Blaine and Logan and predicted their triumphant election. The people were then given an opportunity to shake hands with the candidates, after which Blaine and Logan left on the train for Au- gusta.
