President Seelye favored n wholly new
nomination and different and broad
er platform. AS often happens, the
theOrist, the scholar, was wise; the
practical men were mistaken.
/ heartily echo the desire for a fresh
Conference, which shall give us Il
statement of principles and candi-
date.
As to a platform, it should be made
to express what is deemed just and
wise; and not to catch votes, either
by echoing popular but falIaciOus cries,
or by glittering platitudes. 1t seems
to me that among the points to be en-
braced are:
Civil Service Reform, made prominent
and universal.
Honest Administration.
Punishment of Fraud against the
Government.
DIscOuragementO of MOnOpOlies.
No more Land Grants.
Grants to he resumed where the
Conditions have not been fulfilled.
The Liquor Traffic to be restricted
with view to ultimate Suppression.
Neither High Tariff nor Free Trade,
but tariff which shall reduce the
dangerous Surplus, and shall be just
to Manufacturers who have invested
in great Works, and to Laborers.
Justice to the Indians.
Suppression of MOrmonism, as a
political and domestic System.
As for candidate, he should he alb

more national his reputation, the bet

portunity offered of calling at the pro-
hibition headquarters. When it be-
came known that | was from Vermont,
the greeting was very cordial. This
state is alive with prohibition inter

dents, and can see no better way to
manifest that independence than by
making prohibition national issue.

A Woman Who voted in Maine.

1t is alleged, says the Lewiston
Journal, that a woman in mans attire
voted the democratic ticket at New
Gloucester's town meeting. For the
past twenty-one years, nearly, Rebecca
Berry has been growing up in New
Gloucester, recognized by all as fe-
male wearing female apparel and bear
ing the above wOmanly name. A
short time ago, it is said, her mascu-
line counterfeit appeared in town, or
that Rebecca changed her apparel for
the assumed mans attire, changed her
name to Dexter Berry and has been
posing as a man. She Tor he) is mas
culine in appearance, with il heavy
voice and a large frame. Monday she
Tor he) dressed in mans apparel, voted
at the town meeting-the selectmen
checking the name as Dexter Berry.
Much debate arose in the assembled
town meeting, during which facts
were stated to be as above. The vote
was cast in accordance with the as
sumption of name and attire. New
Gloucester didn't solve the conundrum
and the vote was counted. 'Ive
danced with that voter" said one
! New Gloucester young man.
