1lr: Blaine on the Maine Election,

Augusta, Me-, telegram. Monday night the
Republicans of Augusta held great jubilee
over the result of the election. Retures we're
received at Meonian hall, and speeches were
made by citizens and visitors. AT 9 o'clock
procession was formed and marched to tho
residence of Mr.. Blaine amid cheering all along
the line. Arriving in front of Mr. Blaine's res
idence, the band played and great crowd
shouting for Blaine. In response, Mr.
Blaine advanced to the entrance Of his house
amid cheers and addressed the assembled peo-
pie, as follows:
Fellow Citizens and Old Fr1ends-The repub
licans Of Maine may we'll congratulate them
selves on the magnificent victory which they
have won. Four years ago this evening We
were overwhelmed and Inundated by the loss

which is registered by the choice of both
branches of the legislature, by the election of
all our representatives in congress, of all
county officers in every county in the state,

The Limit of Trotting Speed.

Robert BOnner.-Will horse ever
trot in 200? That is difficult uues-
ton to answer. When Hiram Wood
ruff, the great horseman, said twenty
years ago, that some day 2:1O would be
beaten by a trotting horse, he was
called false prophet, and laughed at.
Hiram's prophecy has come to pass
and the skeptics have been brought tc
grief. Maud S. is the fullfilment Of his
prophetic vision. am not d prophet
like Hiram, and do not like to be
laughed at, so I will not prophecy.
But I will say, that I do not believe
the: trotting horse has reached the pos
sible limit Of speed: 7 have seen the
record steadily reduced from $40 to
2 :O94: Why should it not be lowered still
more? We understand horses better
to-day than ever before, and en-
ploy q training system that fully
developes every muscle, and we breed
them SO as to secure the highest order
of nerve force, courage and endurance,
as we'll as speed. Trotting is an artifi-
cial gait, and the great speed attained
by trotters is due in measure to the
assistance given by outside aids, to
1engthen the stride and steady the gait,
such as toe weights and other appli-
ances. Experienced horsemen and
trainers will no doubt discover other
means to improve the speed. The art
of driving, though we'll advanced, is
still capable of further improvement.
Speed limit, in tnotting, depends en-
tlrely upon how far horse can be
pushed before he will break into run,
which is his natural gait, and if he can
be kept on his feet by artificial aids;
2 100 will be-well, I said I wouldn't
prophecy-but the record will be beaten
some seconds.

4 Beautiful Gift TO fresieeue James +
Hill:

Some fifteen or twenty citizens Of Minneapo-
lis, to show their appreciation Of the benefits
conferred upon that city by Hon. JAMES j. Hill,
president of the Manitoba railroad, in the sub
stantial improvements he has made there and
the large at1dunt Of money he has spent
in them, presented him with an unique
plate the other day at the residence Of
Hon. VIM. D. Washburn, who made the
presentation speech, to which Mr.. Hill re-
sponded The plato is composed of solid sill
yer set on 4 framework of oak, covered with
red plush, and so arranged that it can be
closed and locked, concealing and protecting
the plate. The latter is oval in shape, about
of the great Manitoba viaduct and the river in
the center, tlanked on either side by the mills
upon the banks, the Washburn 4 and the
Pillsbtry being the more prominent. The
centerpiece is handsomely FURNISHED, and al
though composed of the same material as the
ance is altogether different This center
piece is set in frame of carved
silver of beautiful design, containing views
in relief of events in the life of Mr.. Hill, and
finely executed medallion likeness of the re-
cipient in the upper portion. On either side of
the medallion are views of his herds and farms
and lower down the frame are scenes which
will afford pleasant glimpse of his early his
tory. Among the more striking of these views
In silver is picture of Mr. Hill receiving the
first load Of wheat brought down the river to
st. Paul; setting the broken shoulder of an
employe across cartwheel, acting in the cap
acity of surgeon and Samaritan; hunting buff
falo on the plains; camping out with wolf dogs
sitting around as his sole companions; views
on plains, steamers, etc.-the spaces between
the views being filled with heads of wild an
tmals and horns of the deer arranged with ex-
quisite taste. Theplate, though massive, is ex-
ceedingly rich lii appearance, and the carving
Is of perfect workmanship in even the minutest
detail

Every thing Looks Bright.

Washington; Special -There is general
feeling Of satisfaction among Republicans
They seem to believe the campaign is moving
along about right. Vermont gave no cause for
complaint, and Maine afforded justifiable
protext for shout. At the Republican head
quarters the work is going right along. Ohio
being the target at which large proportion of
the documents are fired. Secretary Mcpherson
said
You can say that from this point of observa-
ton everything seems to be going we'll. Maine
did several thousand better than expected If
Ohio does proportionately as we'll the jig will
be up, so far as Cleveland is concerned. I
have not any fear of New York, especially if
we carry Ohio in October. The action of Tam
many, whatever it may be, will not strengthen
Cleveland Many of its members will not sup
port him in any event, and a large part of
those who do will do it in d half hearted way
believe Blaine is certain Of the electoral vote
of that state: In fact, considering the Demo-
cratic dissatisfaction, and the large vote But
Ter will get there, feel more certain of New
York than do of Ohio. Tho Republicans are
just fairly getting their coats off now. During
the eight weeks before the presidential cleo
ton they will make it as warm politically as
well, as the weather is these days, and that's
saying good deal. That is comparison that

Chicago, Special Telegram, Sept e.
Among yesterdays arrivals at the Grand Pa
cific was Secretary of the Interior Henry NJ
Teller, who was hurrying through from Den

eral. In regard to politics, he said that
Colorado was sure for Blaine and Logan by
several thousand majority. The same would
apply to all the Pacific states. All the ad-
vices he had had from California were most
encouraging When asked what the position
OF the senatorial fight in Colorado was at this
time, he replied that he was not taking any
hand in the fight now, though he might before
the campaign was over He thought Senator
Hills chances for reelection were not very
good The opposition seemed to have the in
side track. While Mr.. Teller did not say he
was candidate, yet he distinctly affirmed
that he would not decline the honor if it was
held open to him, and the impression conveyed
was that he was an aspirant indirectly, il not
directly He also stated that he did not think

Extract from speech delivered by Senator
Hoar at Blaine ratification meeting held in
Boston,
Another question, next in dignity, is that Of
the wages Of the Afierican workman We do
not accept the teachings of that political econ
omy with its tidings of despair, which tells US
that it is the lot of the workman forever to toif
for bare life. We believe this country is gov
erned, is to be governed and ought to be gov,
on farms and IN shops. Unless these men
shall have return for their labor, which shall
bring them leisure, comfort, education for their
children, they cannot preserve the qualities
needed for citizenship, and the republic must
fail: There 1i1ay be great and powerful nation
on this continent on other terms but there can
not be a great republic. This end can only
be secured by the maintenance of the
American system. The prices of many other
things; the rates Of exchange, are, in the arti-
fetal arrangements of commerce, determined
in Great Britain. We do not propose to an
mex American labor to that market We be-
ileve that by ajudicious system of protection,
framed for that purpose, this result can be
and is secured, and that agriculture, manu-
facture and commerce will alike be benefited.
In that belief Hamilton, Madison, Jefferson,
Webster: Clay, Lincoln, almost every Ameri-
can statesman whose FAME has survived the
sound of the earth on his CO fin, in that
belief almost every employees of labor and al
most every man who labors himself, concur
with us. few theoretic economists q few
college professors, and the great bulk Of the
old owners of plantations and slave labor diff
fer with us. We propose to debate that ques-
ton with them and take the verdict of tho
American people:
