Cesar cOnciLiatfIlg the common people.
Caesar soon found himself at the head of
small army and Pompey at the head of an
other. He was ordered to disband his
forces, which he agreed to do, provided
that Pomp would do the same, but the lat
ter refused, and on the banks of the Rubi-
con, with 5000 infantry and 80 cavalry,
he considered the perilous situation of going
to war against his sor.-in-law. After think
ing it over for long tina he finally ex-
claimed, '"The die Is cast His language
ON that occasion has been used with more or
less success ever since.
He then crossed the Rubicon and marched
on rapidly to Rome where he made it red
hot for Pompey. Pompey soon took his
troops and went over to Greece, where it
was cooler and where Cesar could not fol-
low him without getting his feet wet. Soon
afterward, however, the two enemies met
on the plains of Pharsalia. Pomp had 50, =
900 troops, but Caesar succeeded in putting
the kibosh on Pomp, who went to Egypt,
claiming that he and Cesar never could get
along together, and as Caesar would not go
to Egypt, he would go there himself.
POmpey was afterward assaSsinated by par
ties who are still at large 1t is thought
that they are concealed some where in Can
ada
When Caesar had cleaned out an army, he
would make report to the senate something
like this:
To THE PRESIDENT OF THE SENATE, SIR:
Veni, vidi, vici. Yours truly, CESAR.
He was afterward made imperator or en-
peror for life or during good behavior, with
a large salary. This Office he held with
marked success until the ides Of March, A b.
C., when he was assassinated by committee
Of influential citizens, who waited on him
for that purpose.
Caesars great GOODNESS in a crisis is here
most noticeable for while surrounded by as
sassins and with his system full of large ir-
regular holes, seeing Brutus, whom he had
been led to believe solid, he exclaimed, SET
to Brute" and expired. In the excitement
naturally incident to an assassination in
which Caesar had been chosen to act as the
corpse, his great sang froid in addressing
Brutus in perfectly correct Latin shows that
he well deserved the tribute paid him by an
eminent historian, whose name at this mo-
ment has escaped my memory, in which he
stated that Caesar was no SLOUGH"

In 81 B. c. Caesar, who had barely escaped
the conspiracy trial with his life, was made
prsetor, and the following year proprietor,
but he had been vaccinated and so escaped.
In 60 B. c. he formed with Pompey and
Crassus the first triumv1rate, kind OF blind
pool for passing any kind of bill they
Thought would be good thing.
Cesar then went into the war business,
and it was a cold day when he did not sound
from enc to five tocsins, and with a loud
whoop 20 on the warpath- Every little while
be would fire the culverin, and then you
would see him roll up his pantaloons with
great sang .froid and wade in blood. He
did not care whose blood it was, so that it
wasn't his own, and so that it was warm.

was certainly very base treatment for can
didate who abandoned lucrative law prac-
tice, as the Opinion says Judge Redman did,
and gave his whole time and considerable
amount of money!" to receive from his party,
and certainly Judge Redman cannot be
blamed for insisting that he shall be guaran-
teed against such treatment in the future.
But what beautiful picture it presents of
the Maine Democracy. Here they were in
the midst of a Presidential campaign selling
out their candidate, whom they had pledged
themselves to support, right and left, for the
purpose Of making themselves "solid with
the Republican ring, and yet protesting to
be making an earnest campaign in his
favor-traitors and hypocrites at the same
time. 1t would be interesting to know
what kind of guarantees Judge Redman
can get from such men that will be
worth anything. If their number were
small, they might be sent to the rear, but as
the Opinion mentions but two places in the
State where anything like an honest fight
was made in Judge Redman's behalf the in
eVitable inference seems to be that the
traitors and hypocrites are in the majority,
SO that an attempt to retire them is not ke-
ly to prove successful. The only possible
way to guarantee the loyalty of these leaders,
that we can think of, would be to compel
each of them to deposit with the Judge at
the beginning of the campaign consider
able sum of money with the understanding
that if they were caught making deals with
local Republican rings the sums so deposited
should be forfeited and become his property.
Then if his feelings are wounded again, as
they apparently were in the last campaign,
he can at least draw consolation out of his
pocket book.

JUDGE REpMAN AND THE COVER
WORSHIP.

1t appears from the Rockland Opinion,
which processes to speak by authority, that
Judge Redman intends to make it one of the
conditions of acceptance of the Democratic
nomination for the goyernorship that he
shall not be treated by the Democracy as he
was two years ago. 1t is alleged that the
Judge feels quite cut up over the manner in
which the Democratic leaders conducted
themselves toward him then, and is disposed
to insist that before he again consents to
stand up to be knocked down he shall at
least receive satisfactory assurances that his
own party shall not betray him. The Opin-
ion charges, apparently with the approval Of
Mr.. Redman, that the Democratic leaders
''skulked," that ''they went through the mo-
lions of conducting political campaign, in
order to hold their places as bosses, and SO
win position to demand the patronage In
case of the election of Democratic Presl-
dent, but that they did not put any real WORK
ormoney into the campaign" and that some
shaped their course so as to be SOLID WIN
the Republican ring, and made treacherous
deals with the enemy in local matters" THIS

The Portland correspondent of the Boston
Record reports four candidates in the field
for the Democratic gubernatorial nomination
Judge Redman, the Hon. D. H. Thing, DIR.
George w. Ladd and the Hon. John w.
Deering. The claims of the first are based
mainly on the fact that he was the party's
last candidate and is entitled to renomina-
ton. The Democrats as whole are inclined
to recognize the validity of this claim, but a
considerable number believe that an effort
should be made to conciliate the labor inter
est which they think can be done by nomina-
ting the Hon. d. FL. Thing. Ladd has some
supporters, but the fact that he was a Butler
man in the last Presidential campaign tells
very strongly against him. Ex-Mayor Deer
ing is supported by himself.

1t is curious to note the difference Of tone
between the Argus's treatment of interna-
tional disputes when the Republicans were
in power, and Republican presided over the
State Department. and its treatment of them
now that Democratic administration is in
charge of the government. Two of our YES
sells have just been seized and are still held
by the Dominion officials for doing in Do
MON ports what Dominion vessels ARE do
cur ports every day without let or him
:, and the Argus thinks it is not mat
n to get excited about; it is a question for
gentlemen of the gown to settle. In an elab-
crate editorial article published in its issue
of Feb. 81, 1884, on our navy, it prescribed
this method of treatment for international
difficulties. We quote its words:
Mr.. Calkns talks about the pusllanimity of our
government. 1t is humliating enough. But
worthless navy is no excuse-none whatever. An

the hands of nlerce1,ary leaders who care more
for enriching themselves than they do for the hon
or and the interests of the American people.
We suppose that our esteemed contem-
porary considers this administration both
wise and resolute," and believes that the
government is not now in the hands of inner
cenary leaders," Yet England has not
FASTENED to make reparation before we have
had time to demand it, and what is very
much worse, inc administration has not yet
demanded any. An infringement upon our
rights now is simply question for gentle
men of the gown" In 1884 if due apology
and preparation for such an infringement were
not made, friendly relations" with the
offending government 'should instantly

THE DEMOCRATS AND THE FISHERMEN.

The American Fishery Union does well to
call attention to that plank in the national
Democratic platform of 1884, in which the
Democratic party pledged itself that lin
making reduction in taxes, it is not proposed
to promote their healthy growth The out
RACES upon our fishermen in Canadian wa
tiers are inaugurated with view to bulldoze
the United States government into the nego-
tiation of new reciprocity treaty which
ciai fishermen into our markets free of duty
The very anxiety which the people of the
British provinces manifest in this matter
shows the great value of the American mar
ket, and that it must not be bartered for the
mere privilege of decent treatment to our
fishing vessels in Canadian ports The Amer
lean nation ought to be capable of securing
the rights of its citizens without purchasing
them by the sacrifice of an important domes-
tic industry.
