The town elections SO far as reported indi-
cate that the Democrats have made some
slight gains-not SO many nor SO large, how
ever, as might have reasonably been expected
under the circumstances. On the eve of Of
fee distributing the Democrats very naturally
were anxious to show their zeal in the cause
and so it was easy 10 get out the full Demo
cratic vote. On the other hand the Repub-
licans were apatbetic and failed to poll their
full strength. The Democratic gains re-
ported indicate no change of political senti-
ment among the voters; they simply show
that the Democrats were more enthusiastic
this year than the Republicans.

The question involved in the Democratic
nomination for mayor of Bangor, seems to
have been not the mayoralty so much as the
post Office. The defeat of ex-Mayor Cum
mings is interpreted to mean that he cannot
get the post Office. Cummings is a Moss
back, while White, the man nominated, rep
resents the Bass, or as they are facetousy
called, the progressive Democracy.

The Argus, speaking of the election in its
yesterdays issue said, sMr. Fogg expressed
his opinion of the temperance voters in the
most bitter terms last evening"" Mr.. Fogg
did nothing of the kind. He said he regret
ted extremely that some of his temperance
friends, who had known him for SO long a
time, should have seen fit to stigmatize him
as a "rummy." That was the long and
short of his bitterness.

SCALD HEAD.

T. y, Truesdell, druggist. Connesut O., reports
a case as follows: The patients head was almost a
solid scab, and the dry scales constantly falling off
his head. making his shoulders white in few
hours. He suffered all the torments imaginable
with his head burning and itching and a terrible
headache all the time. Took three bottles OF RE-
SOLVENT, used two boxes CUTIcURA and some
CUTIcURA SOAP, and was cured. Head is as entire
ly free from scabs as it was the day he was born
No more itching and burning, and no more mead
ache. 1t seems almost incredulous that anything
could cure SO bad case quickly. The patient
says you do not claim half enough for CUTIcURA

The Republicans of Ward settled their
differences yesterday and elected their can
didates for alderman and councilmen. This
places the control of both branches of the
city council in the hands of the Republicans
and effectually closes one of the doors
through which the Hon. John W. Deering
hoped to enter the mayors Office. The peo-
pie will shut the other one at the next cleo
ton. The Hon. Mr.. Deering will not be
obliged to resign the mayorship to accept
the postmastership. If the Republicans of
Ward do their duty as well to-day as the
Republicans of Ward did yesterday the
Republican representation in the council
will be increased BY three.

JUSTICE TO MR.. BLAINE.
washington Post)

A number of Democratic and Independent
papers are engaged in the poor business of
inventing and circulating rGmors TO the eff
feet that Mr.. Blame is pale, haggard and
wretchedly out of health, but that while in
this piliable condition he is constantly inter-
meddling in political and congressional mat
tiers. Happening to be Mr.. Blaine's next
door neighbor, we are in position to know
how absurdly incorrect all these stories
are. The truth is, he is in excellent health,
and is looking better this winter than he has
for many years. As to his medling with
matters in Congress. it is pretty well known
by his friends in Washington that he has not
been under the roof of the House or Senate
but once since he resigned his seat in the
last named body four years ago. The sim
pie truth is, Mr.. Blaine has been hard at
work all winter on the second volume of his
book, and is medding with no one. He
fought manly and mighty close battle, and
when he found he was defeated accepted the
result in manly way. So far as we have
heard, he has not spoken harsh word of
any of his opponents since the election but
has deported himself with dignity.

Stewart L. Woodford relates q con-
yersation with Garfield in the campaign
of 1880, in which Mr.. Garfield, who was
riding with him in Pullman car, spoke
rather dolefully Of bis future after he had
flashed his Presidential term. OF which
he was then reasonably certain. He said
that there seemed to be no place in Amer
lean life for an x.President, that Grant
seemed TO be out Of joint with ell lines OF
activity. and that Hayes seemed to have
no future, and that he really did not
know what an ex.President could do
with dignity. Mr.. Woodford was not
long in suggesting a second term, and
Mr.. Garfield, granting even that antici.
patton, went on with the gloomy picture
that be was drawing. Flashing up, how
eyed, he said that he really should like
10 retire from the Presidency to become
the head Of some college to which he
could devote the remainder Of his life,
strengthening the institution and in
huencing the young men that would
gather about him. He had, be said,
begun life as a teacher, and be had never
found any subsequent employment more
