Barely Hold Their Own


Barely Hold Their own.
New YORK, Sept. 10.-The World says:
The majority for Blsine's candidate for
Governor should have been at least 2O,-
900, under the circumstances OF the
alliance of the Republicans with the Pro-
hibitionists.
The Herald says: Blaine appears to be
1000 votes more popular in Maine than
the late President Garfield, and 1000 less
popular than ex President Hayes. Ii
shows that if the Democratic National
Committee had chosen to contest this cleo
ton they might have done 80 with an ex-
cellent chance of success.
The Times says: As compared with the
September vote of 1876, the last one held
under normal conditions, the Republicans
ought to have polled more than 2O,0O0
majority. 1t will be seen that with all
their straining, with the advantage OF
Blaine's appeal to State pride, and with
the field u bstantislly abandoned to them,
the Republicans have barely managed to
hold their own.
Origin of the Cattle Disease.
CHICAGO, Sept. 10.-Dr. Salmon, chief
of the Bureau of Animal Industry, re-
turned yesterday to this city. He said he
had been tracing the source from which
the cattle disease had spread over the West.
He had located it in u herd at Troy, Ohio.
The herd was owned by a man named Dye.
who hsd been handling a large quantity of
cattle. He had shipped four lots West,
and one of them had brought the epidemic
into Illinois. He could not trace the
other three. There were still chronic
cases of the disease among Dyes cattle.
DR.. Salmon said he should continue to
trace up the disease. He said be would
make q report to the Bureau at Washing
ton, and a bill would probably be pre-
the exigencies Of the occasion.

AUGUSTA, Me-, Sept. 10.-The following
dispatch was forwarded from here to-day:
To James B. Logan, Chicago: The re-
turns from remote sections OF the State in
creases our majority beyond all expecta-
tons. In 358 towns the Republican
majority over Redmsn exceeds Is, 900, and
the prospects are that from complete re-
turns the majority may reach 19, 1000. Pos
sibly it will be the largest ever given in the
history of the Republican party in Maine,
with two exceptions at the close Of the war.
The latest re surns show that the Republi-
cans carried every county. The State has
elected every member of the State Senate.
The magnitude of the Republican vote is q
surprise TO both parties. and shows that q
large number OF Democrats joined our
ranks. (Signed), WALKER BLAINE.

tine of cattle coming into Canada has been
