Letters From the People.
A Citizen of Cambridge, Mass, Enthu
siastie for Blaine.-Conndent of His
Election.
RosroN. July 10. 1884

Bosros, July 10, 1884.
Editor Kennebec Journal:
"a" The last two years | have been IN
the legislature from Cambridge. Aside from
that have had but little connection with poll
tics here in any special way. Since Mr..
Blaine was nominated, which somewhat sur
prised me. quiet as he has been so long. l
am getting up my old war period interest
again. and am spending considerable time
sounding the sentiment here where there has
been so much prejudice against him, caused
mainly by some blows he gave Mass few
years ago and am satisfied that, although
he will lose many Of the exquisite, lmpracti-
cable class, ne will gain from the opposition
many more of the hard, common sense,
practical men Our grand and i'm
promptu ratification meeting a fe~ nights
since. convinced me more than ever Of the
hold Mr. Blaine has, even here, as well as
everywhere. upon the masses, the average
men the business men of the country, for II
only had to be known that such a meeting
was to be, to bring them in crowds; and
such spontaneous and genuine enthusiasm |
haven't seen since | have been IN Boston,
even when Garfield or Blaine himself was
the orator of the occasion. So il was with
the great throng in Washington street
in front Of the bulletin boards when the news
Of the nomination came. Somehow Mr..
Blaine, by hi. long, able and patriotic
career, has made mighty impression upon
the great bulk of our people, and his nomin-
ton was only the natural free echo of their
sentiments. 1t is the peoples voice in
peoples government, and if the few object.
| see no way for them but to gracefully
submit or seek some country and govern
ment better suited to them. Judging from
what see and hear. Blaine, as the most dis
tinguished exponent of the republican party
and its principles will meet with triumph
on election day. As one of its sons | am
anxious TO see Maine do its best in Septem-
Der as well as November. We have thousands
of her sons here that are full of enthusiasm
for our old State 10 this campaign.

We are located here in the extreme East, but West
and South feights and express charges cost practi
cally the same as they would rom New York or
Philadelphia, and the time required Is but about one
day longer. We commenced here in a small way
and gradually enlarged In our location we have
the great advantage OF better class Of help, at
lower wages than could be secured in the great
cities, and here we make saving of thousands of
dollars monthly. Therefore, no other Publishing
same quality OF books. and we caution all that if
they listen 10 those who say they can, expectations
will not be fulfilled.
Few Reasons Why the Augusta, Maine,
Edition win Outseil All Others
Ten TO One.
LIST. Because ii is the authentic edition published
from Augusta, the home of Blaine, and has had the
| advantage OF the most complete knowledge OF his
%. Because Mr.. Blaine and his friends cooperat.
ed with the author and publishers in order that tie
work might be most complete and correct in al
particulars.
Sd. Because Col Conwe is better fitted for writ.
ing such a volume than any other man in America
all his earnestness, knowledge, and ability will be
found in the volume.
4th. Bcause in its manufacture it is the largest
best, and haudsomest book ever published Tor the
price that it is sold for. Let no think of work
ing for any other edition; never do for Que dollar
what you can just well receive $1,000 for; you
sell ten books of the Augusta edition where yoI
would hardly sell one of any other.
9th. Because our volume Is PICTORIAL biography,
and illustrates the most interesting In the
life of the candidate. Our volume is spendidly
illustrated
9TH. Because the author has visited the scenes
OF the early life OF the distinguished statesman and
familiar with the of the boy and youth, from
the statements of those still living there who knew
him then; this is an intensely interesting portion of
the volume.
