CURRENT CONF EMIT.
GEN. DOW ON MIR. BLAINE.
boston Journal

boston Journal1
In 1884 NJ. VIM. A Carrie, then resident
of Providence r. l., addressed letter to
Hon. Neal Dow asking if Mr.. Blaine was a
member of any temperance organization.
Mr.. BOWS reply was as follows:
PORTLAND, II Nov, 1884
Dear Sir,-Mr. Blaine has not been identified
with temperance in the sense meant by you, but
is an abstaner and friend of prohibition, to which
he has deue good service.
Respectfully, NEAL Dow
A SAD DAY FOR MAINE.
president Cheney in the Morning Star.l
In my opinion it would be a sad day for
Maine and for the country if ten or fifteen
thousand votes should be cast in Maine for
an independent prohibitory ticket, as four
fifths of that number would come from the
Republican party. That number of votes
thrown for such ticket would increase ten
fold the number of drunkards in my adopted
State. 1t would help give new lease OF
power to the old pro-slavery party of the
country, which means sacrificing the lives of
many colored men. So my vote must not be
counted for such purpose. For how can
so vote and sin against God!
EFFECT OF POLITICAL ANNExEs.
[Rockland Free Press]
For the first time in many years Rockland
has an anti-Republican City Marshal and
police, and for the first time, we believe, in
twenty-five years, liquor saloons run wide
open, as secure from moleStation as if their
trade were legal business. The same mar
shall is sheriff of Knox county, and no mo-
lestation of the liquor business is feared
from him or his deputies throughout its
extent. Crowds went and came at the doors
of the saloons, last Saturday night, in a
manner that should be instructive to every
person concerned for the morals of this COM
munity We commend the lesson to Mr.. St.
John and the Prohibition party.

Chicago's two leading papers, the
Tribune and the Inter. Ocean, both favor
the candidacy of General Logan to the
presidency of the United States. lfthe
great west cap see its way clear to unite
upon the same platform, the republican
party will elect the next president and
Logan will be the man. Shonld the
folly of the last national convention be
repeated the result OF the last election
may be expected. SO far as Dakota is
concerned, if it views the situation
correctly, it does not want Blaine fer
president. His election would mean the
return OF Ordway to power in Dakota,
with all his corrupting influences, and
an indefinite postponement of statehood
The close persona! rotations which exist
between Blaine and Ordway would
throw the whole management of our
territorial affairs into the hands OF that
incomparable schemer and with the
full strength of an administration be.
hind HIM Dakota would find itaelf with
in the grasp of the most relentless
politician who ever came TO the Missouri
slope. If Dskotaians have the bes'
interests of Dakota at heart they vii
favor anybody rather than Blaine for th,
presidency. Taking this view of th'
situation they will naturally turn to
western man like John a. Logan.

The Alabama. C,aims :


Washington, Sept. 13-It has taken
thirteen years to settle up the Alabama
claims. The Geneva award was made
in 1873. The amount, $15,5O0000, was
promptly paid IN gold coin by tho Brit Brit
ISL government. 1t was Immediately
invested in United States bonds, by the
interest on which the fund would be
augmented. The court of Alabama
claims was created TO adjudicate the
multitude of claims presented. During
all these years the court has been at
work, and the treasury mathematicians
have been figuring out percentages and
paying the claims in full or in part. A
shott time ago the tribunal passed out
of existence. The court room in which
the exploits of Raphael Semmes were
often recounted has been given up and
the furniture sold under the hammer OF
the auctioneer. Within the past few
days the warrants for the final distribu-
tiop, 9,l76 in number, have been drawn
and signed, and are being paid as fast
as they are presented. Tho CLAIMS were
of two kinds, designated us firstclass and
second-ciass claims, or direct and
indirect. The direct claims were for
actual losses by depredatlons of the Ala.
bama and other confederate cruisers; the
capture and destruction of vessels and
cargoes. The indirect claims were for
the largely increased premiums paid to
underwriters during the period. -Four
years were occupied by the court in
determining the first class claims.
These were about 2,6G0 in num-
ber, and when the court had
determined the sums Justly due
they were paid without re-
duction. Payment of the direct claims
was begun in 1879 and finished during
the following year. The whole amount
paid during those two years was $9,315,-
1919. The whole smonnt added to the
award by way OF interest and premiums
on bonds was $3,095,55S.19. making the
total sum available $19,405,55S.15. The
total expenses of the court for the thIr-
teen years were $3.50, 1888, leaving for
the holders of findirect claims So, ,3SS. &c.
33. The aggregate of these claims after
their determination by the court was
nearly $4,000. The amount available
was ordered to be divided pro rata The
rate was trife more than 35.2 per cent.

Crock, before he was relieved, had some
correspondence with the authorities
here as to the capture of Geronimo.
There is reason to believe that Gsn.
Crook was given to understand that he
was not expected to kill Geronimo or
accept his surrender with conditions
Army men here think that Geronimo,
after an expensive six months campaign
has been surrendered on conditions.
This Indian, friends of Gen. Crook here
say. was ready to surrender to Gen.
Crook on conditions without any cam.
paign, and 80 informed that officer, As
for the Apache scouts of Gen. Crook
who are SO much condemned, they say
it was these Apache scouts who captured
Geronimo under Gen. Crook after one OF
the most extraordinary campaigns on
record. which resulted III the soaiipg Of {
the palisades by them, and that it was
not Gen. Crooks fault that he escaped
after he had been delivered over to
the custody of the civil authorities.

BY the way, how did Yankton stand
on the division question IN 1889? She
then hai the capital of the territory. and
while she passively seemed to favor
division it is well known that her poll.
ticians were secretly working against 1t,

Yankton stood upon the question OF
division, in 1882, exactly as it stood in
1881, 1880, 1879. 1878, 1877, 1876, 1876,
1874, 1878, 1872, 1871 and 1870-for divl-
sion Of Dakota first last and all the time.
Itself the originator of the division idea,
Yankton carried the movement until it
was able to 60 alone and now that it has
attained vigorous proportions Yankton
is following its lead to certain victory
The work of Governor Ordway, boarder
at Yankton hotel for time, was nc
part of the work of Yankton, He was a
carpet bagger roaming ct will over the
prairies of Dakota specuiating in the
organization Of counties. Personally he
opposed division because it would cut
off half the profits arising from his cor
rupt system of county organization.

Governor Pierce has issued a circular

Governor Pierce has issued q circular
explanatory of his order supplemental
to Cleveland's order instructing officials
to keep out of politics. The governor
says in his circular:
Do not misapprehend me. The circu-
lar is in no sense an order. It is simply
request. as you will observe by the
language. have no power to enforce
an order Of this kind. / simply rely on
the honor of the mon / have appointed
TO heed the request made of them, and /
hope all will do it. If they refuse, /, of
course, cannot help it, but have conf
dence enough in them to believe that
for the most part they will comply,
This is the most graceful political
retraction yet perpetrated in the execu-
s:ve annals of Dakota. 1t places the
official politician farther to the front
than he was before. 1t is literal en-.
dorsement of all the political acts of the
governors subordinates and an encour'
agement for them to go ahead. BY the
irreverent it might be called "swash,
but w,s are not irreverent. We are only
anxious to see republican governor re
fleet credit upon his party by wise ant
iudiciors administration of affairs. Bu
this weakness is rather humiliating. Al
if he had not already said enough befor,
the confessional Of public opinion, th'
governor goes on to explain further:
I issued this circular first, because
believe it right; next, because it j
proper that the policy of the administla
ton should be observed by those en-
trusted with authority IN the territories
and, third, becauseI would be ashame'
to allow democratic president to loutd

SO long as the failing embers Of vita
lity are capable of being re-kindled into a
warm and genial glow, just 30 long there is
hope for the weak and emaoiated invalid. Let
him not, therefore despond, but derive en-
couraaesent from this, and from the further
fact that there is restorative most potent in
renewing the dilapidated powers of a broken
down system. Yes. thanks to its uuexampled
tonic virtues, Hosletter's Stomach Bitters is
daily reviving strength in the bodies and hoce
in the minds of the feeble and nervous. Appe-
tite, refreshing sleep, the acquisition of flesh
and color, are blessings attendant upon the
reparative processes which this priceless invi-
gorant speedily initiates and carries to a sue
cessful conclusion. Disestion is restored, the
blood fertilized, and sustenance afforded to
each Hfe-austaining organ by the Bitters,
which is inoffensive even to the feminine
palate, vegetable in composition, and
thoroughly safe. UEeit, and regain vigor!

1t is demonstrated by moral statisti-
clans that the largest percentage oil
corrupt at heart members OF legislatures
haIii from the cities and su-cAiied poiiti-
cal centers. This fact corresponds with
the popular notion on the subject and
the cause thereof Is obvious. 1t is
further shown that the largest percent-
age of those without guile who fall into
the embrace of corrupt combinations are
from the rural districts. This is account
cd for by the explanation that the rural
member usually has a local bill in his
pocket when he leaves home, or is under
instructions from his constituents to
anuihilate the railroad companies and
other corporations which operate in the
state or territory. Either of these tasks
is exceedingly dangerous to morals. The
individual thus burdened begins the
session severely honest, but is liable to
find himself at its close with his arms
around the chief corruptionist. But his
bill has passed. He has learned the
science of true craftsmanship. He has
traded.
