BASE BALL.

Base Ball last Sunday evening
did not amount to much. The J..
N. Wrights and Picaynnes under
took to play Tuning game but,
owing to the Iatene>s of the hour
at which they began, darkness in
terfered at the filth inning and they
were compelled to suspend the
game. agreeing TO finish 1t tu-mOr
row evening. However, ii is not
unsafe to say that the game will
turn out III favor of the Wrishts,
tor they are fifteen runs ahead of
the PicaynneS. Sundays game
was the first venture Of the Pea
yunes, and they we're picked of al
most all their rlumag-; but two
feathers remain, aud they will go
to morrow.
The boys Saine Was completed
and was won 10y the Guion Acade
my club. The members of the Oar
ling club hold that it was not fairly
won, but that matters not for it is
natural for boys OF the defeated
side to be unsatistien. AS this
is the second time thatthe Darlings
have been beat by the above club
aud being ''nOhody's darling" they
had better go off and die.
Every one should go TO the park
of Mr.. Il. Tttreau tomorrow ever
lng and witness the most ANNA
ting game of Base Ball that has
taken place this year, in Thibodaux.
The members of the Kosette club
have fenounced the am of

the name OF one of their members
Mr.. +. q. Curtis, one OF the leading
merchants OF the town-and will

Curtis club /; and under that title
viii play against the Charlet club
of Paincourtville, commencing at
1 o'clock =. NJ. tomorrow evening.
Although it does not look friendly,
our club should exert its utmost
power aud sulpass the visiting

Trying to XIII OF" the Republi-
can Party.

The leading third-party prohibition or
gan of this country, the Voice. published
in New York, says of the republican
party I'VE are trying to kill off that
party in the North"
The Voice is doubtless of the opinion
that the ex-rebel leaders in the South will
kill off the republican party in that sec
ton, and that the democratic party with
the assistance of the third-party will kill
it off in the North.
Why this hatred of the third-party to
the republican partyP 1t is conceded on
all hands that the republican party is en-
titled to the credit OF placing on the
statute books nearly all temperance laws
that have been enacted. 1t has supported
those laws against the strenuous opposi-
ton of the democratic party. Why, then,
should the third-party so hate the repub-
licau party as to join hands with the dem
ocratic party to kill it Off Is there any
reason or decency in such an attempt?
Is there any truth in the assertion that this
is being done for the promotion of the
Daily Kennebec journal. [microfilm reel] (Augusta, Me.) 1870-1975, 1886-08-07
cause of temperance Is 1t not rather the

cause of temperance ? Is 1t not rather the
truth that it is not the temperance cause
which the third-partv is working to ad-
vance, but the political and private aims
and ends of the aspiring and unscrupu-
lous demagogues who shape and con-
troll it and who are only using a temper
ance cloak as the best cover for the po-
litical rascality which they are striving to
accomplish?
Kill off the republican partyh What
does this mean? What would the conse-
quence be if such an event should take
place? The republican party preserved
this government against the attempts of
rebels to destroy it. Many democrats
joined the Union army, and many more
co-operated in civil life in the defence OF
the government, but it was the republican
party that raised, organized, inspired and
led to victory the forces that saved the
Union. Now. after twenty years OF peace
and prosperity, the men and policies that
brought on the rebellion and
sought and strove by arms to
skill off, the government, have Presi-
dent of the United States elected by their
murderous methods who is subservient to
their wishes and commands, and control
over one branch of the national Congress.
There is but slender majority of repub-
licans in the United States Senate. which
makes that body the only barrier against
the full control of the government by the
assassins who attempted to destroy it.
The State elections this fall bear directly
upon the qaestion whether the control of
this government shall pass entirely into
the hands of the -Confederates, or
whether the Senate shall still stand as a
protection and safeguard for those who
fought the battles of the Union and the
principles which they defended with their
lives. A change of less number of Sem
ators than one has fingers on his hand,
against the republican party, would give
the democrats the control OF that body. In
other words, if the republican party shall
be killed OFF, in the elections next TALL
as the third party proposes and intends In
its unholy alliance with the democracy,
the Confederacy which surrendered with
Lee at Appomattox will be re-established
at Washington, and jeff Davis may make
triumphal march into the city and de-
clare that the men and the principles with
which and for which he contended have
triumphed.
Is it desirable ''to kill off" the republi-
can party at this terrible cost? Is it wise
to say that the enforcement of the liquor
laws in few cities or towns in this State,
is of more consequence than the question
whether the loyal forces of the COUNT Y
shall still hold their slender power in the
government, or whether the full control
of every branch shall be handed over to
rebels and traitorss Let every voter con-
slider well what it means to ''kill off, the
republican party before he casts his vote
with any organization, whatever its name,
whose purpose is to kill off, the repub-
lican party.

"How is Mexico advancing at PRESENT."
1.-The Mexican Government 10 doing as we'll
as wonld be expected of it, under the circum-
stances General Diaz had great difficulties
TO contend with when he assumed office, but
he has succeeded admirably so far in hts eff
forts to place the country on a sound imam
cial basis. The National debt has been con-
solidated, and he is nov trying TO equalize
| taxation BY taking the duties of the necessa-
ries of life and taxing more heavily the big
estates. The country was never better ruled
than it is to-day. Foreigners are well pro-
tected now. few years ago missionaries
used to be subjected occasionally to rough
usage in the interior, and got little assistance
from the government, but they told me that
they are no longer annoyed. The city of
Mexico is a good example of the progress
that has been made OF late years. All
| 'Pulque' shops, the drinking resorts, are
closed OF o'clock every evening. and perfect
order ia maintained in every section. The
people are easy-going but courteous. The
rejection of the Reciprocity Treaty was treat
ed in dignifed way, although the circum-
stance was calculated to arouse resentment.
| think il would be a grevious mistake for US
to enter into conflict with such people just
for the purpose Of enabling Secretary Bay
ard to make little cheap reputation. Mexico
is much weaker than we, but we ought to be
sure that we are right before we go to war
with her or any one else.-N T. Tribune.
