acquired full success until the WaVcrly Ma@a-

The name came from the Waycrly novels.
His peculiar idea WAS to open the columns of

Democratic Poppycock.

If Mr.. Blaine is playing for the Presidential
nomination two years hence, he is not missing
any points in the game. That much his enemies
must admit. His friend Bodwell has been NOM
mated for Governor Of Maine, and the Conven-
ton was so well handled that the selection was
made on the first ballot. 1t is said that every
Republican in Maine regards il as a foregone
conclusion that Blaine will be nominated. They
are, therefore, doing all they can to help him.
All this talk about the soldier elements an
tagonism to Blaine, because he did not support
Colonel Hamlin, is Democratic poppycock
The result of the election in Maine will prove
this. Banes aggressive personality is making
itself felt in the party throughout the country.
No one questions his title to leadership. Den

A Faithful Congressman.

We doubt if any member of Congress has in
so short time accomplished such practical re-
suits for his constituency as has our present
efficient Congressman, Hon. Seth l.. Miiken.
Since his term as representative began he has
been instrumental in securing the passage of
the following bills which have been of great
Importance to many of his constituents The
Augusta post-otce bill which appropriated
S130,0OO; bill approprating $4,000 for the
repair and Improvement of the Belfast Custom
House; a bill appropriating $4,000 for a light
house in Frenchmans Bay; bill appropriate
ing $4,000 for Col. Bangs Il Co. of Waterville
for supplies taken during the war. He has
secured by his efforts the passage of Il bill
making Mount Desert Ferry port of entry :;
abill granting Board of Pension Commission
ers at Castine; secured the establishment of an
innumerable number of new post-otfccs in his
district; and advocated and secured the pas
sage OF more than one hundred private pension
bills. We notice that correspondent in the
Argus has attempted to belittle Mr.. Milliken's
influence in Washington, but his success in Il
democratic House is a perfect answer to any
criticisms that can be made upon his standing
and influence in that body. This correspond
ent OF the Argus is the son of gentleman for
whom Mr.. Milliken devoted a great deal of
time to secure the passage of pension bill
granting him $12 pension per month"; 1t was
done at the solicitation of this Argus CORES
pondent, and he is now repaying Mr.. Mlliken
for his efforts in behalf of his father. [Kenne-

Hon. Galu>ha A. Grow in an address before
the Pennsylvania Farmers Institute, said there
are 20 100000 laborcrS and artisans in Europe
who work longer hours and receive much less
pay than prevail in this country. Any one Of
those laborcrS can come here at an expense not
to exceed $40 or $50. The higher wages now
paid in the United States, as Il result of the
protective tariff, induce hundreds of thousands
Of the European artisans to migrate to this
country. Yet higher wages and shorter hours
would probably increase that competition to a
point which would be runous to labor. This
is aside from any question of the ability of cap-
ital to pay higher rates. 1t would thus appear
that the real solution of the labor problem de-
pcnds on rate of wages not too high to dcs-
troy the profits of capital or to bring too great
a competition from the poorly paid labor of
Europe.
