The following very sensible remarks are made by the New Mexico Stock grower: "The custom of the cattle in- spectors along the line of New Mexico and Arizona in exacting toll of 20 cents head on Arizona beef strers going by rail to the eastern markets is nothing else than deliberate robbery of the ranch. men. We cannot believe that the spirit or intention of the framers of the quar- antine law, bad as it is in many of its features, is shown by the stand and de- liver system now in vogue in inspecting cattle from the Arizona ranges, where stock is in absolute health the year through.

Politicians, journalists and others, who have to do with public affairs, are divided by naturalists into two classes: The "ins," or those in power, otherwise known as corruptionists or robbers, and the "outs," or those who want to get into power. The latter, who are in the tad pole state of existence-not frogs, but hoping to be-generally term themselves reformers, watch-dogs of the treasury or friends of the people, until they change their position, when they assume the names of their opponents.

PORTLAND, Sept 12-The biennial Maine cleo
ton occurs tomorrow There are to be chosen
Governor, Congressman thirty lone State Sen
ators and 151 Representatives, with county Off
Gals in all the sixteen counties. There are three
complete tickets in the field. namely, Republic
an, Democratic and Prohibition, and the Labor
party has put up tickets for Congressman in the
First, Second and Third districts The nomina-
tions are:
Republican-For Governor Joseph r. Bod
well, of Halowel; Congressmen-First district.
Thomas B. Reed, of Portland; Second district,
Nelson Dingey, ir, of Lewston; Third district,
Seth L. Milliken, of Belfast: Fourth, Charles A.
Boutelle. of Bangor. These Congressman are
present occupants of places.
Democratc-For Governor, Clark S. Edwards,
Of Bethel; Congressmen-FIrst district, VIM. H.
Clifford, of Portland; Second district, Alonzo
Garcelon. of Lewiston; Third district, Joseph E.
Ladd, of Gardiner; Fourth district, John F.

Falmouth; Second district William T. Eusts,

The aggregate gubernatoral vote in 1884, with
which comparison will be made, was 142, 107, di-
vided as follows: Republican, 1869; Demo
cratic, So. 954; Prohibition, 1851; Greenback g.,
239; scattering GA. In 1882, the off year. like
the present, the aggregate vote was 1873, 4T8, di-
vided rs follows: Republican, Y, 4Sl; Fusion
1921; Prohibition. 38l; Greenback, 1924; Inde.
pendent Republican, 269; scattering. l02.
There is no reason for anticipating a smaller
vote than in 1883, so that the Republicans ex-
pect ample margin on the general ticket The
Prohibition vote may be double, but the labor
vote does not look more promising than the
Greenback vote in 1884; yet it must be borne in
mind that it is an unknown quantity. The con-
gressional pluralities in 1884 were: First dis
trict, 925; Second district, $780, Third district,
6,2l7; Fourth district, 5,578. The Legislature
in 1884 stood as follows: Senate 81, all Re-
publican; House. Isl, of whom 115 were Repub-
licans, "a Democrats and 3reenback. 1t is
generally accented that Mr.. Hale will be re-
turned to the Senate.

WOODSTOCK, ILL.,, Sept 1.-THE Democratic
State senatorial convention of the Eighth dis
trict, held here this afternoon was very exciting
The Haines faction, led by the ex Speaker him
self, without waiting tor the convention to be
called to order, nominated Frank Cox, Haines
delegate, for chairman amid the protests of the
opposition, who nominated and elected Wm.
Werden. Thereupon scene of confusion en-
sued, the like of which has never before been
witnessed here. Amidst bowls, threats, impre-
cations, curses and hurrahs, the Haines men
hurried through q 90 called organization, and
nominated Raines, after which they adjourned
and left the hall. The anti Haines men. during
this time, at the same desk were organizing,
and finished, after the Haines people left the
hall, in regular manner George Wait, of
Lake county, was nominated as the Democratic
candidate for the Legislature from this district.
Resolutions were then adopted declaring a want
of confidence In E, NJ Haines, repudlating and
denouncng him, and stating that whenever and
wherever E. NJ. Haines assumes TO represent or
to speak politically for the Democratic party of
this district. it is done without authority.
Many Republicans have signifed their inten-
ton of voting for Wait, the regular nominee.

Closing the Maine Canvass.

GARDINER, Me-. Sent. 1.-THE last rally of
the Republican campaign in the State was held
in the spacious Coliseum in this city, to-day.
In the course of his remarks, Mr.. Blaine said:
1t is worth while, IN this last hour for discussion,
standing, as are the eve of election, to recall
the pecuharities of this campaign for certainly the
general argument submitted to the people
has been, on the. side of the opposition,
filled with contradictions, not to say
absurdities. The Democrats have apparently
been unable to- define their position on any question
On the leading national issue of protection they have
been tnid and irresolute to the last degree oc-
cssionaIly putting forth rank freetrade argument
through some one of their speakers, and recalling
or qualifying it in of their leading organs on the
following day. Then, again. arguing in the main for
the Morrison tariff bill whole and yet afraid to
touch any of the many features of that bill
in which the commercial. and agricultural and man
ufacturng interests of Maine are injured or de-
stroyed The most learned Doctor of Salamanca
would be unable to find any thread of con-
sstency; any line of logic, any dash of COM
mon sense in the mode in which the DEM
ocratic party has conducted its campaign on that
great issue They seem, indeed, to have kept up
mere show of fight behalf of their own party, while
depending In reality for any possible chance of VIC
tory upon the diversion and distraction caused bv the
third party and the third party in turn has exhibit
ed as striking pecuharities the Democrats
themselves in their mode of conducting the
campaign. Gen. Neal Dow, who has for the last
quarter of century stood for two continents
of prohibition now declares that for thirty years
it. has not done bit of good in the
suppression of the liquor traffic of Maine. Laughter.
Gen DOW has thus apparently been willing to set at
naught his own testimony this long period
in order to achieve victory against the Republicans
If there be consistency in political action if there be
honor and fair dealing among men the Republican
party and its candidates exhibit both in their cam
paign, which. SO far as have had word to say is
now closed. bid you cordial goodnight Ire
