violating his Instructions. Yet he went on,

the collision was inevitable he jumped from his

WHAT THE RESULT IN MINE PROVES.

WHAT THE RESULT IN MINE PROVES
The Mugwump newspapers are sorcly dis
appointcd over the Republican victory In
Maine. and are making desperate efforts TO
show that the figures lie Comparing the re-
turns with the Presidential year of 1854, when
Mr.. Blaine was a candidate for President, ana
missating the result this year, they pretend
to discover something unfavOrable to the kc-
publicans. These newspapers have been Tor
weeks declaring that there were no issues to
bring out the vote this year, and yet they
want to compare the result with Presidential
vcor Emit even if that were done fairly il
would make a showing quite different rom
what they give TO their readers.
The truth is that the victory in Maine is
unprecedented in an off year since the uh"
Of the war. Except in Presidential years the
Republican plurality this year is larger than
in any election for nineteen years. III Is ho
wonder that the Free Traders who lose no op-
nortunity TO assail Mr.. Blaine and the Kepub-
lican party wIithc under this unusual victory

result has been accomplished, too, Without
that machine of ofcehoders which VIC heard
so much about in 1854, and without money
enough to pay the legitimate campaign eN-
pcnscs. In Mr.. Blaines own town OF Augusta
The plurality is even larger than 1t was IN
1854. The only place where the Democrats
make anv gain to speak of is in the county
where The Navy Yard is located. The partisan
use that vas made of that yard by the Dem
oclats was in fragrant violation Of the spirit
/; not the letter, Of the law, and will probably
be investigated by Congress.
Maine has trebicd in veal under the pro
tcctive tariff. It's worllmcn have increased
tlcir savings in banks from Sl,oOO,OOO To

spccchcs brought out these facts so that every
body could understand them. The result
demonstrates that the Republican party Is
even stronger to-day than it was before these
free-trade newspapers cspouscd the cause OF
the Democratic party.
