A EsubIic RsMefRctioi..

How to laundry linen as it IS done
in Troy, N. Y, has been kept secret
long enough it can and should be
done in every family. The ELASTIC
STARCH is the only starch in the Uni
ted States that is put up by men who
have a practical knowledge of the
laundry profession. 1t requires no
cooking, keeps the iron from sticking
and linen from blisterng while ironing,
and gives shirts, cuffs and collars that
stiffness and beautiful polish they have
when new, which, everybody knows
keeps them clean twice as long. Be
ware of limitations. See that the name

Breeders Of game fowls have been 70:
years in the habit of marking their fowls
in different ways, so that they could tell
them, if stolen, or brought to fight against
the true owner. \ Georgia faucier says:

slit in the webs Ct the feet, when
first Matched, and it causes 10

chicken on block OF wood or plank, then
take sharp-pointed, small-bladed knife,
and stick il through the web OF the foot,
near the back, and split it out. l have
never seen one close up, and oftenit brings
10 blood, If done quickly and the knife
is sharp. As there are four webs on the
feet Of {; chicken, quite a change can be
made in marking different hens chi, kens.
For instance il you have a fayOrite hen,

THE STATE CAMPAIGN,

The political campaign of 1886 is
now opening. Ever as TIE time APP
proaches for State election several
companies, and sometimes regiments
or batallions, composed of the per
sonal following of candidates, charge
on public opinion to possess it, each
division for its fayorite. Now this
Is all right if properly conducted.
TO urge the fitness of each aspirant,
or to point out his real defects, is
pro bono ru6Eico. But the trouble
is these warning factions carry the
matter even further than this. The
very suggestion Of name for any
important office subjects its possess
or to be covered with heap Of cal
umny, to be charged with personal
and political Irregularities, and
treated to innumcrable vile epithets.
So men in his own party begin to
weaken his personal strength as a
candidate before he is nominated.
In short, members Of his own party
begin to unfit him for q candidate
before he is selected, and then if lie
should receive the nomination they
have to "eat crow" all the remain
ing time of the campaign, or so over
to the opposition. How long will
men persist in putting themselves in
a position i'll which, after the nomi-
nation Of some one other than him
they would at first prefer, they will
he met by the opposition with the
cpithets which they themselves in
vented for him who has become
their party nominee?
The coming election will be al
important one. Party ascendency
and personal success will become, as
they always are, important factors
in the struggle for power. The pc
litical history of our State for the
past few years admonishes us tina
oftentimes men, and not principles
are the ruling influences which guide
party action. AS in business mat
tiers success is too often the CRANE
object hoped and worked for. Th
means employed should, however
be carefully considered, and honor
able and highminded measures onl.
used. Greed for Office must be sub
servicnt to principle. Statesmanshi
must be sought for, and politician
made to take back seats. The ofic
must seek the man, and not the ma
the office. The will Of the peopl
must be acknowledged, and whe
expressed be implicitly obeyeC
When these ideas are fully unde
stood by all parties much that no
gives no credit to our system of fire
government will be wholly Grad
Gated, and the pure principles of OF
institutions will be freed from i
unseemly blots.
Vermont is not wanting in mate
ial of tie highest grades of state
manship. We have in the Republ
can party men of the truest standal
and highest attachments who Won.
honorably fill the most elevated p
sitions. These are the men the Sta
needs. Their services are wante

The Bangor (AIe.) Wing, in re-
ferring recently to some newspaper
discussions touching Mr.. Edmunds'
course in 1884, takes occasion to
make the following emphatic and
judicious remarks
"The Republican papers Of Maine
have preferred no complaints, have
uttered no reproaches against Mr.
Edmunds on account Of his course
during the Presidential canvass of
1884. Nor have they intermeddled
in the slightest degree by sugges-
ton, or even by hint, in the APP
preaching Senatorial election in
Vermont. They have with one &C
cord regarded that election as a
matter belonging to the Republi-
cans of Vermont and to them alone.
In this respect the Republican pa
pers of Maine have pursued the
same course steadily adhered to by
Mr. Blaine. No word has ever beer
heard from him referring directly
or indirectly to the course Of Dir
Edmunds in 1884 or to his rcelec-
ton to the Senate in 1887. The BE.
publicans of Maine unanimously be
lievo that it is wise for the party t.
| look forward and not backward, t
forget in the duties Of the future al
