CURRENT COMMENT,


The willingness of a large part of the daily
press of the country to sacrifice decency and
good manners to sensationalism is strikingly
exhibited in the treatment of Miss Folsom,
the reported tiancee of the President. Every
relative or schoolmate or casual acquaintance
who has bad enough taste to consent to talk
to reporter, is interviewed" and the result
published with displayed headings and pot
metal Illustrations, regardless of the desires
of those most interested, and to the disgust
of all right-minded people

Collector Chase is reported to be full of
confidence that the President will rencmin-
ate him. But the nomination of John Z.
Fitzgerald in place Of Pillsbury must shake
his faith good deal. The Boston Record
says Chase and Pillsbury are Siamese twins
and must stand or fall together.

We observe that the Rockland Opinion was
misunderstood by the Rockland Free Press
as well as by the PRESS. In this weeks is
sue the Free Press says: 'The Opinion pro-
nounces The action of the police officers of
Chicago in dispensing the murderous mob in
that city 'unjustifable' As the Arbeiter
Zietung, the Chicago organ of the anarchists
Spies, Mast, Schwab, etc., is about the only
other paper which expresses the same view,
the class in which our local contemporary be-
longs is clearly defined, and fortunately very
rare" This tends to show that the Opin-
ions obscurity and not the PRESSES dullness
caused the Misunderstanding.

The Germans charge that Mr.. Powderly is
trying to make the Knights Of Labor, a
temperance organization, and a movement
has been started to induce. all German
Americans to decline to join ON the ground
that the Organization is placed in opposi-
ton to what the Germans call the doctrine of
personal liberty in the matter of the use of
beverages. 1t is true, and greatly to his
credit, that Mr.. Powderly has tried to make
the Knights of Labor temperate organiza-
ton, but there appears to be no reason to
charge him with attempting to make them a
distinctive temperance organization.

A COMMON SOUTHERN ERROR
Louisville Courier-Journal,

In estimating the cost of the war to the
South Gen. Gordon falls into the very com.
mon error of supposing that the slave prop
erty' was destroyed. Not at all; the own
ership of that property changed hands. The
negro was not destroyed; he was set free
This is distinction well worth bearing in
mind in hi storical reviews as well as in eco.
nomic discussions. For a time this change
of ownership disturbed the relations of the
parts to the whole; it interfered for time
with the productive capacity Of the people
but only for time. After each part of this
complex machinery had readjusted itself to
its new relations, it was found that as a
working machine the free man was better
than the slave,

The candidacy of Hon. A. c. Hamlin of
Bangor for the nomination for governor by
the coming Republican State Convention,
seems to be very favorably received in all
portions of our State 1t is believed that the
eastern part of Maine will be nearly or quite
solid for him. He is gentleman of expert

abilities and attainments has splendid rec

and is in all respects worthy of the earnest
support of every Republican.

CAN'T AFFORD IT.

That which the people of Cincinnati can
not afford is to have the town full Of men
with their employers and are reasonably
satisfied with their wages, and the wheels Of
industry stopped by lnobs who profess to be
representatives of labor organizations, but
are organized only for mischief. We have
the right to supsose that intelligent and re-
sponsfble organizations are not represented
on the streets or in consultation touching
business, by men who lack all capacity for
argument save wilh clubs, and whose princi-
pal occupation seems to be the absorption OF
spurious and malt liquors.

JESSIE BENTON FREMONT.
Tho Brilliant Wife Of the Once
Famous "Pathflnder."

Th0 Orllll6Dt WHO Oh THO OnCO
Famous "Pathnnder."
Washington Cor. Lewiston Journal
had a talk with the famous Jessie Ere
mont the other day. 1t is very easy to see at
glance that she was very handsome girl.
Her good looks, however, have not entirely
departed Rather, beauty has changed to
stateliness She Is large and stout, and
combs her luxuriant hair straight back. She
Is to all appearances as happy and contented
as when girl. Notwithst anding age has
changed her looks, am told it has not
changed her manners in the least. She still
graces the drawing-room with as much ease
and composure as ever, and talks with the
same brilliancy.
She is daughter of the noted Thomas
Benton, of Missouri, for many years United
States senator from that state. Sire met
Fremont in Washington whereupon the lat
ter became frantically in love with her. Her
father and mother were much averse to the
match, and did everything to break it. The
young couple, however, were determined,
and were married by a Catholic priest, no
Protestant clergyman consenting to perform
the ceremony. Although Senator and Mrs.
Benton were very angry, reconciliation
soon took place.
Mrs. Fremont was woman Of remarkable
courage and fortitude. She joined her hus-
band in many Of his journeys in the west
until they finally settled in California. In
the early days OF California struggle en-.
sued as to whether slavery should exist there.
The pro-slavery party, SO the story goes,
labored with the women Of the state, telling
them that unless they kept slaves they would
be slaves themselves Mrs Fremont was Gp-
preached, whereupon she stoutly replied:
"No! Rather than have slavery in Califor-
mia, I'll do my own work. l have done it SO
far; and I'll do it still" Slavery wasn't
recognized in California after that.
In the summer of 1856 Fremont was
chosen as the Republican nominee for presi-
dent A glance at the ties Of newspapers OF
the time convuces one OF the bitterness OF
the contest, and of the important part MIS-
Fremont played in the campaign Her mama
was in everyDody's mouth, and was the sub
ject of campaign songs. But Gen. Fremont
was defeated AMI Jessie never entered the
White House rs the PRESIDENTS wife.
"Yes, we have lived in New York ever
since the war;" she sad, land arc as
happy as ever in our old age. Tue general
is US young and vigorous as any Of you, if he
is II years of age. He has never worn
glasses ID his life--never had u tooth filled
ami very seldom has had any thing to do with
doctors. No. of course, he does no business
to speak Of, but lives very quiet and happy
life"
Should Mr.. and Mrs Fremont be sparel
two or three years longer, they will cele
hrate their golden wedding.
