arise from non compliance with their resolu-

The gentlemen who have just returned
from Washington where they have been pur-
suing the Portland collectorship express
great satisfaction with the treatment they re-
ceived from the President, and with good
reason. II certainly speaks well for the
Presidents politeness that these gentlemen
did not come home long ago with large feas
in their ears, for certainly no man ever en-
countered more importunate set of beg
gars than did the President when he en-
countered the Maine Democratic politi-
clans. Their pilgrimages from Maine to
Washington began Immediately after the in

quent intervals ever since Until the hot
weather drove them out colony of Demo
cratic politicians from Maine was estab-
lished there, and almost daily some of their
number called upon the President to pay their
respects" and talk, incidentally of course,
about the offices. The hot weather drove
them home; but as soon as the temperature
fell back they went again and swarmed
around the President buzzing like colony
of bees. Once when Gov. Plaisted attempted
to harangue him the President lost his tenn
per but on all other occasions he appears to
have been able to restrain his feelings.
The Pan-Electric Company which the At
torney Generals department has just grant
ed permission to bring suit in the name of
the United States to set aside the Bell pat
ent is a very extensive concern. One of its
branch companies is called the Rogers Tele-
graph and Telephone Company. The presi-
dent of it is General J. w Denver of Ohio !;
the secretary General Frank Armstrong
lately appointed an Indian Inspector; the
treasurer eX-Congressman Klotz, and among
other directors are ex-Congressmen Money
and Manning of Mississippi, and Colonel r.
F. Looney of Memphis, the Tennessee mem
Der of the Democratic National Committee.
The Rogers Company is advertised as: A
combination of interests in the Pan-Electric
and he American Postal Telegraph compa-
MES. There is some reason to believe that
one of the plans Of the spectators interest
ed in thesevarious Pan-Electric patents is
the urging upon Congress of the establish
ment Of a Postal Telegraph system, and it is
asserted that the candidacy of ex-Congress-
man Money for the Office of Postmaster-Gen-
eral was backed by all the interests involved

POLITICAL SLAVERY.
Baltimore American.
For 10 years the people of Maryland have
been practically as rigidly excluded from
participation in the conduct of public affairs
as the dwellerS in the Cars dominions. A
clique Of polticians-and very unworthy
clique, to say the least-has named the Off
cials, forced them down the Threats of the
voters made the laws, and in many in
stances, directed their enforcement. That
an intelligent community will longer toler-
ate such state of affairs seems impossible.
THE CHINESE PROBLEM.
st. Paul Pioneer-Press.
To be just on one hand, let it be reaffirmed
that the Chinese ought to be protected by
the local power of every community where
they are threatened, and by the force of the
United States government wherever that
may be found necessary. On the other hand
there is a large class of people, especially at
the East, who deny that there are any equi-
ties at all on the other side; who would use
these disturbances as an opportunity for
bringing. out their old ideas that the Chinese
are altogether admirable, and that they
should not only be protected while here, but
permitted and encouraged to come here.
SIGNS OF WAR.
philadelphia Press.1
There are increasing indications of war in
Eastern Europe. The situation is strikingly
like that which prefaced the Russo-Turkish
conflict of 1877. The jealousies and animos-
tiles of Servia, Bulgaria, Roumelia, Monte
negro, Albania and Greece are finding ex-
preston in the preparation of armies and
daily occurrence. Read between the lines,
Prime Minister Tisza' S speech to the Hun
garian Diet may fairly be interpreted to
mean that Austria expects to see a war and
that she will take very good care to get her
share of the booty when the map of the pc
ninsula is once more made over

The New York Democrats endorsed the
President and nominated Gov. Hill. The
Republicans condemned the President and
nominated Ira Davenport. The consis-
tent thing for the Mugwamps to have doue
if they could not endorse the Democratic
nominee or the Republican platform would
have been to nominate candidate of their
own and stand up and be counted. TO sup
port man who stands on platform which
condemns the President and claim that by
so doing they are supporting the President
is an absurdity unworthy the discriminating
Mugwump mind.

from Spain says that the Spanish government
is willing to enter into a commercial treaty
with the United States that shall meet the

A gentleman living on the outskirts of

lately became the mother Of an interesting
family CT eleven little shepherds. Since
Their she has changed from a docile and
friendly companion to a very rigid guard

of grain was sent out from the city to the
stable at this place, and, as no one APP
peared ready 70 take care Of it, the cart
man kindly offered to put it into the bin
himself. He took the first bag and went
into the barn. The. people about the housa
did not see him come out again, but at first
gavs the matter little concern. When, how
ever an hour had gone by and the team
still stood at the door with no driver Ii
sight, an investigation was made and the
driver was found on top Of q ladder inside
the barn while the faithful dog was seated
az the foot Of the ladder all ready for husl-

DESCRIPTION OF THE ENGLISH YACHT THAT Is
TO SAIL FOR THE AMERICAS CUP.
From the Scientific American.
The greatest sporting event on the water this
year will be the international yacht race for
the Americas cup, held under the auspices of
the New York Yacht club. Great interest is
being manifested by the yachtsmen and others
throughout the whole country in the coming
contest, while the patriotic pride of many
wealthy men in the race has been aroused to
such pitch that they have ordered several
new and costly yachts to be built for the pro-
lection of the cup. Even Gen. Butler has
dropped politics land law long enough to saw
that he wants to enter the ancient America in
the race. England will send two very fast
yachts, with the hope that one of them will
walk away with the prize. These are the cut
tiers Genesta and Galatea. The former is the
Yankee yachtsmen.
1t is understood that the match is to be three
miles, one over the New York club course. and
the third, If necessary, twenty miles and return
starting from sandy Hook.
The GeneSta was built by Messrs Henderson
Bros, at Patrick-on-the-Clyde. She is 80 feet
all, 81 feet on the water line Is feet beam
ia feet depth of hold, and 1915 feet draught'
Although originally she had only sixty tons Of
lead outside. she now carries seventy tons of
lead on her keel. She has also been recently
coppered and fitted with new and heavier
spars. keeIson strikgers, frames and Strength
ening plates are all OF steel, while the planking
Is teak and elm.
With great accommodations beneath the cnt.
ter's fittings are plain but substantial The
deck fittings present several novelties. The
bowsprit comes over the steamhead i'm the GEN.
ter OF the yacht, with more than the usual diff
culties in reefing it. To obviate this difficulty
one OF the checks of the steel bits is hinged.
This device permits Of the bOwsprit heel being
swung round clear OF the scuttle and the can.
stan, and run aft alongside the mast The fore
scuttle, oval in form, Is q steel tube round
which the wire-fall Of the bobstay tackle is
coiled in easier turns than 1t would be behaved
in the ordinary way. just before the mast is a
second scuttle, which accommodates the
steward, and also the crew, on racing DAYS.
Behind the mast is a third scuttle, down which
canvas can be lowered into the Safl-room under
the cabin sole.
The Genesta will be without any provisions
for screening the weather spray, besides o rae
ing cabin. The Genesta has n fine saloon lifted
up lightly and elegantly, ladies' cabin aft, aud
spacious accommodations for the crew steward
and captain. The whole length of the yacht
has been utilized, and the space obtained is re-
markabie. The Genesta Is TO be in charge of G.
Carter, who is we'll known on the Clyde as q
clever yacht sailor. She Is owned by Sir Rich
ard sutton.
