This city has witnessed to-day one of the
most shameless spectacles that ever disgraced
New England municipality. The polling
places have been packed with democratic
repeaters imported from Portland, Lewiston
and other places, and from the first the gen.
eral result of the election was a foregone
conclusion. the question Of majority depend.
ing only upon the frequency and success Of
the gang of imported hireling. in getting in
their work.
Notwithstanding the fact that four of these
graceless scamp, have been locked up in
Saco jail, the work of double, treble and even
sextuple voting has been carried on with
more or less success throughout the day
Outsiders may ask, how can this be- Easily
enough. Every check list and ballot box is
in democratic hands; every police officer and
constable is sworn democrat; the city hall
building, the city treasury and the city rum
shop are under democratic control; repeating
uriner such circumstances is as easy as roll
ing off log.
The city hall buildlng has been the main
base of operations. The men who have en-
gneered this shameful piece of trickery and
crime hibernate there. The repeaters have come
out from that building end other convenient
quarters, singly or in squads, and after maxi
ing the round of the wards, return for fresh
instructions and change of costume, per
haps, for second foray, and again for a third
and fourth, taking their chances of arrest
for q fat consideration.

The verdict OF the vicinage is against
Mr.. Cleveland again, SAYS the Philadel-
phia Press. 1t will be remembered that
there was a majority against him when he
ran for president in his county, city. ward
and voting precinct, although the most
strenuous efforts were made by the dem
ocrats to bring out their vote at the home
of their candidate. The same week
which saw the anniversary of MIR. Cleve-
lands Inauguration witnessed another
election in the county, and another re-
publican victory was scored The cleo
ton was for members of the Board of
Supervisors, the last board being demo-
cratic by two majority. In the board
chosen last week this majority is reversed
exactly and the republicans will control
it. So it seems that Mr. Cleveland's pol.
icy has not strengthed either him or his
party in the towns where he is known
best.

An Ice Whirlwind.

The valley of Mount Ida, in Ulster county
New York, was Sunday the scene of one OF
the most peculiar manifestations of the vaga-
ries of the wind ever heard of in this vicinity
at least. 1t was . little whirlwind, but .
strange one. The day was an exceptionally
pleasant one, the sun shining brightly, and
with little or no wind apparent. BY the side
of the road leading to New-Paltz is an ice
field of considerable extent. Without any
warning q sharp, short, and curious wind
storm arose, currents coming from two diff
ferent points of the compass and meeting just
above the icefield alluded to. In an instant
there was a crashing of ice and such an at
mospheric disturbance and whirling in air
Of ice and water as to create a miniature
waterspout. Several times this spectacle
was repeated, one miniature waterspout fol-
lowing another rapidly and constantly in
creasing in size. Finally the wind gathered
sufficient force to raise into the air a great
mass of ice and water Then, whirling about
with the rapdity Of top, the wind. keeping
close in its embrace this cold mass, moved
slowly away from the pond and began to
climb up the side of Mount Ida. 1t was a
beautiful sight for the bright rays Of the sun
set the mass to glittering and shimmering.
and it moved slowly on, throwing out daz-
Zilng ana Deautltul many coiOreu rays elonR
its path. Well up in air the mass was swept
on, some of the larger ice cakes falling in its
path, until something over 200 feet from its
starting point the wind dropped its burden on
Mount ldas side. The path of this ice
whirlwind was very narrow one. the trees
on either side showed no indication of any
unusual atmospheric disturbance, or of the
presence of any wind at all. Such q strange
freak of tina wind has never been noticed here
before, and even that wsll-informed party,
'the oldest inhabitant." has no story of any
such phenomenon stored away in his memory

That communicating and foreign element in
the blood, developed by indigestion, is the
cause of rheumatism. This settles upon the
sensitive aub-cutaneous covering of the mus
cles and ligaments of the joints, causing con-
slant and shifting pain, and aggregating as a
calcareous, chalky deposit which produces
stiffness and distortion Of the joints. No
fact, which experience has demonstrated in
regard to Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, has
stronger evidence to support than this, name
ly, that this medicine of comprehensive uses
checks the formidable and atroeious disease,
nor is it less positively established that it is
preferable to the poisons often used to arrest
it, since the medicine contains only saiutatory
ingredients. 1t is also a signal remedy for
malaral fevers, constipation, dyspepsia, kid
nsy and bladder ailments, debility and other
disorders. See that you get the genuine.

In reply to the query of correspondent as
to the popular belief that cat will suck the
breath of a sleeping infant. Babyhood says
"Dr. Tomlinson of Chicago dismisses the
subject Scientifically: what good do you
suppose it would do cat to draw into its
lungs breath when a human being has just
exhsled? Nevertheless it may be said, with
ell respect for DR. Tomlinson and no respect
At all for superstition, that the warmth-loving
cat has way of preferring baby's crib as =
sleeping place to any other bed or corner. If
driven away she will return steslthily again
and again to the snug covert. She loves,
furthermore, to nestle close to baby's body,
40 often as not thrusting her whiskered nose
against the velvet check, pink and warm with
sleep. Thus far, she may do no harm. But
when she occasionally curls her bulk of Ave,
SIX or eight pounds weight upon the sleeper
heaving chest, mischief may come of it. To
escape the risk of this mischance, if for no
other reason, keep pussy away from your
slumbering baby. Indeed, he is best off with
out any bec-fellow."

Official Patronage.

The power of official patronage in car
rying elections seems to have been gross
ly misunderstood by the democracy.
While the republicans had the President
and his power to control the offices, the
democrats contended and vociferated that
this power was mighty in controlling
votes and giving the republican maiori-
ties in national. State and municipal cleo
tons.
Well. the republicans have lost the
Presidency and the democrats have gained
it. A democratic President rules at Wash.
ington. The office holding patronage
which his predecessors had is in his
hands for distribution. He controls APP
pointments in custom houses and post or
fees as republican Presidents did before
him. He can turn, and has turned repub.
licans out of office and given their places
to democrats. 1t is true the Senate is re-
publican and has voice in the eppoint-
ment Of some of the principal officers, but
with few exceptions, in which the nomi-
nees of the President were grossly objec-
tionable, all the nominations of the Presi-
dent have been confirmed by the Senate.
Now what is the effect of the change of
officeholding patronage from the republi-
can to the democratic side upon popular
electionsp Are the democrats stronger
and the republicans weaker at the polls
What is the effect in this State as demon
strated by the Spring elections3 Why
the result appears to be just the reverse
of what the democrats before the election
ne Cleveland claimed it would be. The
republicans are stronger instead of weak.
err They are united. enthusiastic, victor
,ous as they have not been for several
wears. They have no oficeholders to as
