Cows KilIed.-On Sunday evening last
two valuable mich cows, the property Of
Dr. Charles J. Maddox, of this place, were
killed by the SAG west bound passenger
train. The accident occurred at the juno
ton Of the city road and railroad, at the
east end Of town. The cows were being
driven home from pasture by colorcd boy,
and when they reached the above point were
struck by the locomotive and dragged con-
siderable distance along the track. This is
one of the most dangerous points on the
railroad, and we think il high time that the
company should make some arrangement
to prevent accidents to persons and animals
travelling along the public road.

Saturday NIGHTS Fizzle.

About eight hundred Democrats masquer-
AIDED as Independents at the City Hall Satur-
day evening. The most conspicuous among
the masqueraders were Col. Elliot King, who
appeared as a laboring man, and the dis.
coverer of John W. Deering, Mr.. Charles
FL. Fling, who assumed the character of free
trader, and Capt John W. Deering, who ap-
peared in the role of martyr. The meeting
was sadly lacking, both in numbers and in
terest, and If it was fair indication of the
degree of interest which is felt by the citi-
zens of Portland in the fortunes of Mayor
Deering, that gentleman is destined to be
relegated to private life today by large
majority. Mr.. A. d. Sweetsir, the chair
man, asserted in opening the meeting that
there were hundred reasons why John W.
Deering should be reelected Mayor Of Port
land, and promised that the succeeding
speakers would inform the audience what
they were. The succeeding speakers, how
ever, lamentably failed to fulfil the chair
mans pledge. Mr. King gave two, namely,
because Mr.. Deering had gotten up first
class Fourth OF July celebration, and be-
cause he had provided band concerts In
Deeting's Oaks. Mr.. Fling gave none what.

The report of the civil service commission
is full of encouragement to the friends Of
civil service reform. The system has been
on trial only gear, but the results are al
ready of most cheering character. Of
course the system is not perfect. Experience
will show no doubt that some changes In
the present law are needed to accomplish
the best results. But the years trial has
been sufficient to demonstrate that the law.
even in its imperfect state, is efficient in sup
pressing the scandalous practices that had
grown up under the spols system. Presi-
dent Arthur seems to have become sincere
convert to the reform, and his commenda-
ton of the work of the commission is warm
and enthusiastic even. There is no reason
to doubt that the appropriation which the
President recommends will be granted by
both Houses of Congress. Civil service re-
form has come to stay, and the average Con-
gresham, whatever his personal views in
the matter, is too shrewd to kick against
the pricks,

On Saturday Judge Goddard retired from

for twelve years, and Mr. CLARK II. Barker
assumed the duties of the position to which
be vas lately appointed. During the day
be received great many calls Of friends who
came to congratulate him, and wish him
prosperity and good fortune. The citizens
generally, both those who preferred him and
those who had supported other candidates
while the field was open, have confidence ia

Judge Goddard is once more private cit

any long period since some time before the
war. Born in 1928. aud graduated from
Bowdoin College in the class Of 1874, he was
admitted to the bar in 1848 and opened an
Office in this city where he was born. Four
YEARS later he removed to Lewiston Falls

Governor Chamberlain on the commission

II appears therefore that If those three Tor
more if there were one or two more) votes
had been counted for Mr.. Prince he would
not have been nominated. He lacked 26
votes Of the number necessary to a choice.
Further than this they would not IL counted
have prevented the nomination of Mr.. KEEL
sey. 121 votes is g clear majority of any
number less than 242. Therefore unless
there were as many as Z ballots in this
bunch, which nobody pretends, Mr.. Kelsey's
nomination would not have been prevented
If all of them had been counted for Mr..
Prince.
II would have been proper for the COM
mittee to have reported the facts to the eau
Gus, if they hal chosen to do so, but mas
much as Mr.. Kelsey was nominated, whether
these votes were reported or not reported,
and the only effect Of such report in the
excitement prevailing would have been to
lead to accusations of attempted ballot box
stutfing against Mr.. Princes friends, 1t was
doubtless wiser not to report what the COM
mittee believed to have been an unintention-
al error that did not affect the result. In the
whole business Mr.. Prince and his friends
were treated not only fairly but considerate-
ly.
We repeat that there never was less ex-
cusable bolt, and we are confident that the
Republicans of the Ward will emphatically
rebuke it to-day.

The letter of the Hon. w. II. Clfford read
al the meeting of Saturday night revealed
the kind of interest the Democracy take in
Mr.. behring's election. If, said Mr. Cliff
ford in substance, Mr.. Deering is elected it
will inspire the Democracy of Maine with
the hope that they may carry the State this
fall. Of course the converse is equally true.
If Mr.. King is elected the Democracy of
Maine will have little heart for the Fall cam
paign. To defeat Deering now is 10 make
