We have got little bit of third party
in Maine Some gentlemen who don't believe
that the Republican party is good enough
Prohibition party for them said: Il want a
third party in which shall be able after
great and diligent effort to do nothing, 4" and
there is nothing that a man ever wants 81
much help in as in doing nothing. Ar
industrious man can go to WORK
and do great deal for himself
but let him drop work and 60 into the village
grocery and sit around TO loaf and he wants
three or four fellows TO help him stand
around
Now these gentlemen want little bit of a
party in which a few of them will stand NJ
outside of the general fight and make mouths
and faces. They have imported some men to
help them and | take the responsibility oi
saying that the impoItations that have been
made in the state for the purpose of advanc

ALEXANDER ARDIcATES.
Fears Expressed That His Departure
Will Result in Civil War.

LONDON, Sept. Prince Alexander has
throne of Bulgaria
SOFIA, Sept, Before Prince Alexander
announced his intention to quit the throne he
received a telegram from Prince Bismarck
recommending that he abdicate in order to
save Bulgaria
Prince Alexander's decision to abdicate Is
attributed partly to loss of vigor OF mind
and body consequent upon the severe
trials which he has undergone lately.
Prince Alexander on Saturday presided at
a meeting representing all parties i'll Bull
garia 1t was decided to appoint Nj, STAN
buloff, NJ Radoslavof, NJ. Earaveloff, M.
Guechoff and NJ Stoilolf to negotiate with
Russia and the other powers for the settle
ment of the Bulgarian crisis.
An ordinary session of the Bulgarian cham
Der of deputies has been summoned to discuss
the abdication 1t is believed that the de
departure OF Prince Alexander from Bulgaria
is likely to result in civil war.
CoNsTANTINoPLE, Sept. 1T is rumored
that in accordance with advice given by two
friendly powers, Turkey is making military
preparations on the Asiatic frontier 1t is
also said orders have been given to supply the
army in Erzeroum and along the border with
additional guns, stores and munitions. This
activity is due to movements on the part OF
Russia, which is supposed 10 he making eff
forts to gauge the military and naval
strength of Turkey. A suspicious foreign
artist has been making sketches of the forts
outside of Constantinople, and it is thought
that he was an agent of Russia. 1t is learned
that large contracts have been made on ac-
count for coal for Odessa, and that a contract
has been made to supply 10000 tons of metal
plates of twelve-inch thickness and with steel

that the pastures are rapidly drying up,

In OBTAINING those three hundred Nor
mon immigrants who arrived at New
York the other day on their way to Utah,
on the ground that they were paupers,
the commissioners of emigrants have
taken step that may lead to important
results From the present aspect OF the
case these people are evidently paupers BY
their own admission, and there seems to
be abundant reason to justify the author
ties in refusing to admit them to land
under the provisions of the law OF con
gress. 1t is difficult to see why the courts
will not be compelled to sustain the COM
missioners in their action. Such de-
cision would be hailed with general sat
