Rus,ness and Democracy.

The return of the democrats to power
In the nation has had blighting effect
upon business. As soon as it was known
that Cleveland was elected, capitalists be-
gan to be cautious and to close their
pocket books. Their greatest tear was in
regard to the tariff. They were unable
to divine the course of the democracy
upon that question. Had Mr.. Blaine been
elected to the Presidency they would have
rested in confidence that the tariff would
not be intefered with to the detriment OF
business. But with Grover Cleveland in
the Presidential chair uncertainty brooded
over all kinds of business, and led on the
great depression which has existed since
Cleveland's inau guration.
All over the country men commenced
to prepare for dreaded financial storm.
Prudent merchants began to lessen sail in
their business. Enterprise came to a
stand still. Mills. factories, shops, all in
dustries felt the pressure. The wages OF
labor were reduced, and many working
men could with difficulty find anything to
do. Then came the strikes and labor
difficulties which have disturbed the coun-
try, and the mad riots OF the anarchists.
Cleveland's election was costly job for
the country. But it would have been still
more costly had the Senate been under
the control of the democracy. This stood
firm in the hands of republican majority,
and but for this the disasters attendant
upon the coming of the democracy into
power in the national government would
have been vastly greater.
Since the Morrison tariff bill failed to
pass the House, and Congress has ad-
ourned, business is improving. The
failure of the democrats in the House to
sven get consideration OF the Morrison
dill by that body has revived the conf
1ence of the business community. Trade
mas frightened up, factories and mills are
operating more briskly, work is plentier
and wages better. All this is due to the
fact that it is now known that the admins
ration is powerless to carry out the policy
Of the democratic party in regard to the
.arff.
These business disasters are the fruit of
4 partial return of the democracy to
power. That they are no worse is be-
cause the Senate is not under democratic
control. Now suppose in the elections
this fall they are able to root out the
slender majority in the Senate aud gain
democratic majority in that body, what
will the result be? Business will be
Frustrated by the shock. What the coun
try has passed thu ough the last two years
in business and labor difficulties is slight
with the trouble that would fol-
low. Here is something for every voter
in Maine to think of as the day OF election
Four members OF the ma
tonal House of Representatives are to be
chosen. A member of the United States
Senate is also to be chosen by the legis-
lature which will be elected next Monday.
He who votes the ticket headed by Joseph
r. Bodwell casts his influence for the
peace and prosperity of the country but
he who votes the democratic ticket votes
to increase business depression and invites
an accumulation of distress and trouble
greater than any seen in the last two
eventful years.

Scarcely regular democratic speaker has

The original Blue Point oyster was
first discovered in Long Island waters
nearly century ago. At that time
there was portion Of the Great South
hay. opposite Blue Point, that was
covered with blue mud, and oysters
were not supposed to exist in this
muddy ground. The discovery was
accidentally made BY fisherman who
was dredging for an anchor that he
had lost. The shells Of the oysters
were very dark and the oyster itself
Fat and luscious. II was not long be-

the baymcn, and they hocked 70 the
ground BY hundreds. A few Of the
baymen made fortunes, and Il was
nothing unusual for one man To take
as high rs two hundred bushels in a
single day. At the time there was a
ready market for them at fifty cents
per bushel. The beds naturally could
not stand the continual drain. and
finally became exhausted. The oysters
