New HAMPSHIRE is the only state in the
Union whichiby law forbids the holding of
state, county, village or township office by
communicates ofthe Roman Catholic Church.
New Hampshire is Republican State. and
this prescriptive law was enacted by Repub-
lican legislature. That state is the home of
Bill Chandler. Blaine's manager in 1876 and
1880, and this law q in keeping with Blaine's
infamous Madigan circular opposing the
election in Maine of Catholic to Office.
Chandler is now especially engaged to foil
the Independent movement to seeure the
electoral vote of New Hampshire against the
Catholic hating candidate.

There is great anxiety for Maine in the
Blaine camp. The election occurs on Mon
day, September Sth, and in addition to the
state ticket and really overshadowing it, is
the questonto of submitting the complicated
question of prohibition constitutional
amendment The liquor laws that have been
enacted there are not satisfactory, and
rank prohibition amendment is proposed.
Blaine finds he is between the upper and the
neither millstones on this subject. He pre-
tends in Maine to be in favor of the most
radical prohibition, but in the rest of the
country be wants to be understood as free
and-easy man upon the subject. Undertake
ing thus to balance vessels of
water upon each shoulder, he has
cajoled Neal Dow to stand sponsor for
him in Maine, and when his position
anywhere outside is brought in question he
''magneticalIyn disarms both Dow and any
expressed opinion on the subject The posi-
ton of affairs renders the result of the
September incident important, and at
the same time it is clouded with doubt.
Speculation is already rife as to the course
that Blaine will pursue if he should carry the
state by small majority only, or lose it alto
gether in September, and the situation is re-
garded as so grave that the eastern papers
are already discussing the question of
Blaine's retiring from the National ticket,
which is declared as inevitable if the state
goes against him, and not impossible if the
majority is so small as to amount to winning
by mere scratch. Discussing the pros and
cons, an eastern paper says:
Two plans are under consideration should the
September election be unfavorable One, and
the most probable, is to accept Blane's resigna-
ton and have the. national committee advance
Logan to the leadership; the other is to invite
President ,ATthuF to stand The latter, it is
thought, would make the stronger candidate for
a short campaign but the former stands now in
in the line of promotion and ought not to be
overlooked. His strength would lie chiefly in
the fact that he has no unpleasant record to de-
fend and if any Republican could win after a
disaster in September he would be the leader
most likely to snatch victory from defeat. But
it is not improbable that the outcome of the
September election will spare the fussy party
savors any worry'on this head.
This. ineidentsshows that the Democrats
through compact organization and vigorous,
unfaltering work can surely win the great
victory which win have for its glory the OPP

The stuff telegraphed from Philadelph ia

invention. If it were true it would write

fact or shadow of one can be found as the
basis OF attack, the Blaine manipulators

The Preliminary .shir1nish.
Chicago Times, 81. /

The first gun in what promises to be an east
ern trunk line passenger war has been fired, and
II the hostiities are not at once checked passen-
ger rates between Chicago and New York will
soon go to pieces The trunk-line passenger
pool contract provided that no commissions
should be paid. The pool expired Aug. /, and
since that date, until within two or three days,
the provisions of the old contract have been, by
mutual agreement carried out. The Lake Shore,
Michigan Central, and New York Central have
begun to pay commissions through steamship
agency on all tickets between Chicago and New
York sold by the latter's agents, as the follow
ing circular issued to agents by Charles Koz-
minsk u Co., representing the Hamburg
American Packet company at Chicago, will in
dictate:
We are pleased to inform you that on and after
this date (Aug. 49, and until further notice, we
will pay you a commission of "a on first and
second class railroad tickets from Chicago to
New York, upon orders drawn us.
Trusting that this liberal railroad commission,
In addition to the steamship commission paid to
you by us, will be the medium of greatly in
creasing your business for the Hamburg Ameri-
can Packet company, and assuring you, etc.
At the bottom of the circular the rates from
Chicago to New York, on both first and second
class business. are given over only the Lake
Shore, Michigan Central and New York Central.
The other lines will undoubtedly meet this
commission rate, and that means a rapid reduc-
ton of all passenger rates between Chicago and
New York to minimum. The Lake Shore and
Michigan Central people justify their action by
charging that certain of their competitors have
been doing the same thing, and that they are
compelled to take this step in self protection.
1t is to be hoped that meeting of Mr.. Finks
committee will soon be called, and that matters
will be adjusted before the decentralization shall
have made much progress. The prospect of an
early settlement, however, is not promising.
