NAMES CONFIDENCE GAME.-It
is very safe to say that no national
encampment of the Grand Army
of the Republic will ever again be
held in the State of Maine, and it is
certainly a matter of great regret
that so unfortunate location for
the camp was made this year. 1t is
difficult to discover, in fact, why the
people of Maine ever invited the
Grand Army veterans to intrude
upon her sanctimonious if not sane
titled soil. People do not often
invite common thugs and plug-uglys
to partake of their hospitality, and
it occurs only in very peculiar COM
munities that policemen are called
in to watch invited guests at social
entertainments. But it appears the
State of Maine is reversing prece-
dent and custom, and that after
having urged the Grand Army to
make the headquarters of its annual
encampment within her borders,
promptly appointed a special and
enormous police force to take care
that the ruffianly veterans were
properly controlled during their
stay and duly searched before being
permitted to leave. The Chicago
Herald commenting upon this re-
markable feature of the reunion dur
ing its progress said "The espion-
age thus established promises to be
very distasteful ana annoying.
Though it is not to be supposed that
American soldiers are sots or drunk
ards, it is humiliating to reflect that
in one State they are treated as
though they were. Almost any
where else in the Union the veterans
would have been left free to enjoy
themselves In any rational manner
Essex County herald. [volume] (Guildhall, Vt.) 1873-1964, 1885-07-10

that was agreeable TO them, and the
sight of a few thousand of them
drinking few bumpers in memory
of the old days would not have
been particularly narrowing" SINH.
lar comment is almost universal, and
the Grand Army boys are said to
feel that they have been made the
victims OF a confidence game of the
most exasperating features and OF
the largest proportions. Color is
given to this report by the fact that
next years reunion is to be held as
far from the scene of the present
disappointment as possible. From
Maine to California is a pretty wide
jump, but in view of the circum'
stances it is only surprising that the
location for next years camp did
not fall somewhere in Egypt.

HONOR TO WHOM HONOR Is DU1

HONOR TO WHOM HONOR Is DUE.
We publish elsewhere a communi-
cation from a man who formerly re-
sided here, and who seems not TO
have lost his keen sense of the honor
and hospitality OF New England.
In dealing with the charges of dis
courtesy made against Portland care
should be taken not to confeund the
fanatieal action of a few with the
conduct of Portland itself. 1t Is
true that few bigoted, misguided
and irresponsible people, wanting in
culture, manners, common politeness
or decency caused such manifesto
tions by way of circulars, ETC., as
to induce people, especially the
braves invited guests of Portland)
to apprehend that an offensive and
unwarranted espionage was to be
instituted, and that the baggage of
the boys was to be searched, and if
occasion required seizure made. For
this, various Departments of the
G. A. r. very properly expressed
their surprise and indignation. But
because a few meddlesome oppor'
tunity seekers for cheap notoriety
and the exercise of hypocritical mo
rality declared what should be done
this does not excuse the press from
enquiring what the city government
did in fact do. Mayor Deering CAV
such assurances that the rights of al
should be regarded without persona
affront, that all were satisfied, ant
when the party arrived the guest
were received with a cordiality 70
which the Forest City is proverbial
No Grand Army man that we ca
learn of was searched, or seized, o
annoyed, or interfered with. TIL
veterans ON every side bestowed eA
pressions of unlimited praise on tn
people of Portland. The almos
universally expressed opinion wa
that they had not met in their Ms
tional encampments more hospit;
BILE people than their entertainers i
Portland. So it seems to us on tn
whole that the bad and blatant maj
ners of few, ignorant of the amer
tiles of social life and unauthorize
to speak for Portland, ought not t
be charged upon responsible con
munity who are unjustly bearin
the reproach of the silly idiotic work
of others, which the good and ten
perance people of Maine so deepl
regret while lamenting that throug
that folly the cause has gone bac
IN its progress a long, long way.

WHERE THE DANGER Turks.

A gentleman who has been visit
ing q New England village met with
lady who seemed very much dis.
turbed at the prospect of a visit
from the cholera this season, speak.
ing of it several times during an
hours call. The premises were to
all outward appearances delightful
The walks were clean, the flowers
were beautiful, and the paint was
new, but there came from the stable
attached to the house a very disa-
greeable odor. The inmates did not
probably detect it, because they
have been accustomed to it, but the
stranger could. That household will
not probably be visited with Asiatic
cholera this season, but if it should
60 into that village that beautiful
home would be one of its shining
marks. Whatever ills its occupants
may have during the season, fevers,
diarrheas, and like diseases, can be
attributed to the poisons which lurk
in stable and vault. Most homes
will escape such foe for years, but
sooner or later it will appear in the
form of fever, diphtheria, and kin
dred diseases, which will battle the
skill of the physician. Many good
people attribute deaths from fevers
J and like diseases to wise but mys
FERROUS Providence and relatives arc
exhorted to bow submissively to the
intliction as a chastisement from
GoD, when it is due to a neglected
vault or well of water little better
than a cesspool. Death enters sucf
house to punish the violation OIL
laws which every adult should un
derstand and which should be taught
in public schools. There are score,
and hundreds of just such houses il
our New England villages. The oc
cppants are careful, and if they
knew the foe which turks about theil
homes he would be driven out. The
trouble is that they are ignorant
about the matter They fear cholers
which is scarcely possible danger
and heed not the vaults, the drains
and the source of water supply, thai
in nine cases in ten contain the germs
of disease and death. This danger
is far more prevalent than most PEG
pie imagine. How many neighbor.
hoods are there in our New England
towns which do not have a system
of drainage in which offensive odors
cannot be detected in the night timei
These odors are the signals of dan
ger and if the warnings are needed
the causes of them will be found il
some filth-spot which should be al
once ahated.
Just now let us not borrow trouble
about cholera, but let us at once
examine our premises to ascertain il
the enemy of health turks in any fou
spot, and if we find him to at once
cast him out.-B0St0R JomnQl.

THE Work OF CRANKs.-The po-
litical prohibitionist seems to have
some sort of perverseness in his ma
ture which will not permit him to
be decent or sensible under any cir
cumstances whatever. The State of
Maine has a very large number Of
these peculiar Observation-Disclosures, and
as was to be expected, they, have al
ready taken occasion to brutally in
suit the veterans of the Grand Army
of the Republic who are the guests
of the city of Portland. They have
endeavored to have all articles Of
baggage and other mor ohas'dfse ad-
dressed to members of the q. A. IL.
taken to police headquarters ana
inspected with a view of discerning
whether any liqnors shall be among
such consignments, and to secure
other police regulation of the most
obnoxious character The veterans
very properly and Indignantly re-
sent these inhospitable proceedings,
and the following dispatch has been
sent to the associated press:
NEWPORT, VT, June 29.-Io the Associated
Press: Two tboueamu comrades Of the Grand
ARMY of III o republic have read the dispatch
Regarding the appointment OF special police
to care for the lives and property of the peo-
pie Mt Portland. We call your attention to
the fact that in times past we were the police
OF the nation, and twenty years has not d.
nlnished our respect for law and order. We
come unarmed and on a peaceful mission as
your guests and respectfully ask permission
to enter your city unmolested by special in
vestigating committees.
This dispatch was signed by the
departments of Ohio, Tennessee,
Georgia, Illinois, Wisconsin, Kansas,
Iowa, Colorado, Minnesota, Oregon,
Dakota, Missouri, Nebraska and
Michigan, and it ought to make the
hebetudinous and otficious cranks of
Maine very heartily ashamed of
themselves. The Grand Army of
the Republic consented to hold it's
annual encampment at Portland this
year under the impression that it
was to be entertained there in the
same hospitable spirit which had
marked its reception elsewhere. Its
members have not travelled several
thousands of miles for the mere ex-
citement of being deliberately in
suited.

To tie Editor of the Herald:

Enclosed l hand you two of many
items appearing in leading journals
in the West concerning the treat
ment the Grand Army boys have
received in Portland. AS New Eng
landers west are classed as one of
the family these charges come home
to us with double weight. AS news
paper items can safely be taken with
several grains of allowance, l trust
these yarns will not bear the light
of fair investigation. If not true
the facts should be known and the
public put right. There is no class
of men so truly in the hearts of the
American people as the veterans of
the late war, and if the action of
the City Council of Portland has
been such as to displease the "boys"
she has a blot that will stand to her
shame and grow deeper as each hun
dred years mark her history. The
old canteens, when in the hands of
the boys who carried them to vic
tory, cannot be searched by any
city on a false presumption that
they may contain that to cheer the
hearts of old warriors and be con
traband to Neal Dow or some othel
man who would sell his country tc
) be a fanatic. You, no doubt, wa'
on the ground, and know if these
charges are false or true, and trust
will give me the information impair
