The Bangor Commercial having remarked
that "all the dickerers and traders in poll
tics, all the men whose influence, official or
unofficial, is for sale to the highest bidder"
had opposed the appointment of Gen. An
derson, the Argus replies that acquainted
with facts none but crank would have
written it.; unacquainted, none but fool
would have ventured en- it., and then it
goes on to say that ''nine-tenths of the De-
mocracy of this district-the bone, sinew and
brains of the party, the men who do the
work and pay the expenses of the political
campaigns, favored the appointment of
Judge Cleaves, and it urges Gen. Anderson
to call off the Commercial dog else he will be
thrown under suspicion. We regret to see
these evidences of i'll feeling between the
brethren. We hope when our esteemed con-
temporary styles its editorial brother ON the
Penobscot fool or a crank it is using Ian
guage in purely Pickwickian sense. The
mission of the Democracy is to restore the
government to the guilelessness and sim
plicity of the good old Jeffersonian days, but
if they fall to quarreling about the custom
houses and post offices in this fashion it is to
be feared the great work of publication will
be neglected.

The week commencing Sunday, November
8, will be observed throughout the civilized
world as season of prayer for young men
and Young Mems Christian Associations.
This season had its origin in a resolution
adopted by the International Convention of
the American Associations held in Albany,
n. Y, in 1866, and has been observed every
wear since at the recommendation of the sub
seouent conventions. There are now $500
of these associations in the world, distribut-
ed as follows: North America 934, Great
Britain SOB, France Y, Germany $40, Holland
1896, Switzerland 26S, Denmark 43, Belgium
"a. and dozen more or less in each of the
following countries: Spain, Italy, Turkey,
Russia, Austria, Japan, Syria, South Africa,
Australia, New Zealand, Madagascar and
India The American associations are the
strongest and best organized of any. They
number 629 general associations, 1870 college,
50 railroad, "a colored and IL German. The
yearly current expenses of the associations
in America amount to $75o0Co They own
50 buildings valued at $685. 900, and have
total net property of 50, $4,000 Ais men are
devoting their whole time to the work as sec
retaries, librarians and gymnasium instruc-
tors. The expense of the railroad associa-
tons is $4,000 per year, two-thirds of which
sum is contributed by the railroad compa-
MES, who testify to the great benefit result
ing to their employees through this special
department Of the Y. NJ. c. A. work. Last
year LOO young men professed conversion
in the college associations. There are 81
state and provincial organizations, each with
its executive committee and annual conven-
ton. These committees expended last year
in their work $1,000 The International
committee located in New York city in 1866
and continued there ever since, is the execu-
tive committee of the International conVen-
tons which meet biennially. 1t consists Oh
80 members, advisory members and 10 trus-
tees representing all parts of the United
States and the Dominion of Canada. 1t en-
ploys ten secretaries whose business it is to
visit all parts of the two countries advising
with and counselling associations, both State
and local. The expenses of the committee
for last year were ,496, which amount was
contributed by friends of the cause.

The irony of history is caustically shown

Crescent City, Cal, was lately invaded by
an army of honey bees. Doors of business
houses and residences were closed, but where
a crack or other opening was found the bees
crept in and formed in knots ON beds, tables
and windows as big as man head. 1t was
several hours before they could be expelled.

The State Board of Health is undoubtedly
doing all in its power to prevent the intro
duction of small pox into the State from
Canada But there is a long line between
Maine and the Dominion and it is impossible
to guard it fully. Unvaccinated persons will
get across, especially at sparsely settled
points, and find their way into factories and
numbering camps The efforts of the board
of health need to be supplemented by pre-
cautions ON the part of all employers of la
Dor. The determination of the lumbermen
to allow nobody to work in their camps who
has not been recently vaccinated is move
in the right direction. Mill owners should
adopt similar precautions; and in those of
our cities and villages which contain con-
siderable French Canadian population steps
should be taken to compel vaccination.

The New York State members of the Ma
tional Committee of the Independents have
just issued an address to the Independent
voters of New York, setting forth the rea-
sons why they should vote for Davenport and
against Hill. The sum and substance of it
is that the Independents should vote for
Davenport instead of Hill because by so do
ing they will better endorse President Cleve-
lands administration. As the President
himself has expressed his intention of yot-
ing for Hill and has followed this up by con-
tributing $1,000 to assist in his election there
would seem to be a very radical difference of
opinion between him and the Independents
as to what will constitute an endorsement of
his administration.

That the arrest of Julius Dexter, a MEM
Der of the Cincinnati committee of one hun
dred, on charge of perjury was simply an
attempt to intimidate the committee and stop
its inquiry into election frauds in Hamilton
county, is proved conclusiyely enough by
the fact that when Mr.. Dexter's case was
called for trial nobody appeared to offer any
evidence against him.

Mr.. Conkling pronounces the interview
publishedin the New York Sun, in which he
is reported to have spoken disparagingly Of
Mr.. Davenport fabrication. He says he
has not talked politics for publication since
his return from Europe and does not intend
to. The desperate strait which the Demo-
cratic canvass is in is clearly indicated by
this attempt to bolster it up with falsehood
and forgery.

Contract prison labor was abolished in
New York by Republican legislature over
a year ago. The law has not been, and is
not now, obeyed by the Democratic superin-
tendent of the Albany penitentiary. The
Albany Journal has called the attention of
Gov Hill to this matter three times, and
nothing has yet been done. People who re-
member Gov. Hill's answer to the questions
of the laboring men will herein fully recog-
nize the demagogue.

The administration is finding it pretty
hard work to keep out of New York poll
tics. The pressure has become so severe
that the President and the two New York
members of the Cabinet have pooled in
$1,000 apiece to help pull Hill through, and
Private Secretary Lamont has contributed
$500 and gone oyer to New York to give the
managers the benefit of his advice. The
suggestive hint is thrown out also that the
administration considers that Office holders
have perfect right to make voluntary con-
tributions to the cause.
