THE LATE THIRD PARTY.

SIGNIFICANT.
Bangor Wing.
One of the significant features of the re-
turns Is the comparatively small vote polled
by the Third Party movement
SOMETHING LEARNED.
Boston Traveller.
Neal Dow, st. John, Finch, and the Third
Party crowd, will now understand that the
great body of the Maine voters who declared
in favor of the new prohibitory clause in the
Constitution of that State are not ready to
take the administration of the Maine law out
of the hands of the Republicans.
ST. JOHNS EFFORTS IN VAIN.
Ksnnebec Journal.
The Republicans were splendidly led by
that leader of leaders, James G. Blaine, who
stood in the fore front of the battle and was
host in himself. His marvellous ability
never was more conspicuous than in the late
campaign. His speeches were powerful.
They covered every topic in issue, and the
power of the Democratic press of the whole
country and the voices of st. John and his
associated Numbered in vain against them.
THE BAIT TOO THIN.
Boston Advertiser.
The result is satisfactory. The temper
ance men refused, as body, to join hands
ton ticket. The laboring men refused to be
led by the demagogues, who were trying to
make votes from their ranks to encourage
the party of free trade and cheap money. 1t
is not year, to judge by Maine, of "stam-
pedes' The Democratic hook, too thinly
baited with Third Party movements, has not
deceived the masses.

CURRENT COMMENT.
MIR. REEDS OPINION.

Mr.. Reed sent the following despatch to
the Boston Advertiser, Monday evening:
st is not easy in hasty examination of a
vote ON election night to be sure of the sig
which seem clear. The votes in the various
coast towns of the First District show that
our fishermen are very indignant about the
treatment received, not only at the hands of
the administration, but also at those of the
committeeIof ways and means. This would
have shown itself more fully in a much
larger plurality in the District if vigorous
attempt had not been made in York county
aid of the administration, and was signal
lied by the presence of war ships at Kittery.
| don't know that any extensive repairs can
be made on these ships, or will be attempted !;
but the vote at Kittery and York shows their
usefulness 1t is to be hoped that the Presi-
dents absence in the woods may not lead to
other phenomena which seem inconsistent
with reform T. B. REED"

A little fisheries difficulty in Europe is
caused by the seizure of English boats on the
French coast. Their owners are said to have
violated the French law, which prohibits
foreign fishing boats entering her harbors
except for shelter and provisions. The fish
cries in the English Channel are regulated
by very strict laws, and such seizures are of
frequent occurrence. But the cases are usu-
ally settled in the courts Of the country
where they originate, and it is not often
that any diplomatic correspondence is in

On the whole of all the candidates in the
recent election Ex-Gov. Garcelon, who fig
ured as the Democratic candidate for Con-
gress In the Second District, has the most
reason to feel dismal The Democratic work
ingmcn slaughtered him without mercy,
ands in good many towns his vote will fall
below fire vote of Eustis, the prohibition and
labor candidate. In Richmond he did not
get single vote. If the Ex-Governor has
any discretion left he will not appeal to
Maine voters agaiu for vindication.

MR., PARNELL's LAND BILL.


Next week promises to be an eventful one
in the British Parliament Mr.. Parnell's
land bill is to come up for consideration, and
it is announced that Mr.. Gladstone will re-
turn from the Continent expressly for the
purpose of supporting it. The debate will
undoubtedly handle the question of rent
thoroughly. and perhaps correct some of the
msapprehension that nov exists in many
circles of England as to the actual condition
of the Irish tenants. The landlords main
tain sturdily that the tenants have much the
best of it, and that the only real sufferers are
the wealthy owners of the holdings. The
Irish Loyal and Patriotic Union, which
voices the sentiments of the landlord party,
has just issued pamphlet describing the re-
lations of the tenant to the landlord, as de-
termined by the land act of 1881. By this act
r tenant cannot be evicted unless he refuses
to pay rent or negects to comply with GER
tain conditions which are named by law and
are not excessively burdensome Ejectment
for non-payment Of rent cannot be brought
for less than years rent actually due, and
If an ejectment be brought the tenant may
redeem the property at any time within six
iiOAi'Ai" "A'Oi DhO oAcCuIlOH Vi iu6 VIII, VI
may, within the same period, sell the tenan-
cy after the writ has been execut-
ed, and the purchaser may redeem
the property. Hence the landlords ar
que that the tenant must have very COM
Portable time since the laws make an eviction
such difficult task But there is a griev-
ance of which the landlords say nothing.
The act OF 1881 provided for determining
what is called judicial rent" That is,
method was established whereby, when the
landlord and tenant disputed as to the rent,
the courts might step in and fix the rate.
Many tenants took advantage of the law and
had the judicial rents" fixed for their hold
ings. But Mr.. Parnell now urges that there
has been a great fall in prices since most of
these Judicial rents were fixed. So great has
been this fall that, in Mr.. ParnelPs Judge
ment, it justifies great reduction in rent.
Unless such reduction is made he predicts
numerous eyictions and much trouble in Ire
land during the winter. TO avoid this he
has drafted his land bill. As amended this
measure would suspend eyictions on pay
ment into court of half the rent due. The
practical effect of this will be, Of course, to
make the payment of but half his rent oblig-
atory upon the tenant; the re; he may pay
if he likes; If he does not the landlord can
not eYict him. In the debate the issue will
be squarely Joined between t,nants and |
their landlords. For this reason it promises
to be interesting and important.

More than a week ago the New England
ShipbuildiDg Company of Bath reduced the
wages of its carpenters from two dollars to
one dollar and seventy-fye cents a day. The
district assembly of the Knights Of Labor
thereupon took the matter in hand, and MEM
bers of the district board went to Bath and
endeavored to have the old wages restored.
When the managers of the company declared
their inability to comply, the district board
ordered out all the Knights of Labor in the
employ of the company, and last Monday
the strike began. The carpenters only have
suffered the reduction, but the machinists,
pattern makers and boiler makers are max
ing common cause with them. Work has
stopped, and only twelve out of one hundred
ana nftg,men are at work. Crowds of idle
men, an unusual Spectacle for Bath, are seen
around the streets. The directors of the
company show no signs of yielding, and
there is general feeling that the strike is a
very serious matter.
How serious troubles may result to the
shipbuilding interests of Bath from period
Of labor troubles can be appreciated best by
those who understand the present condition
of the industry. Few realize that the build
ers of wooden ships have been almost COM
pletely driven from the market. This is
true all over the world in the United States
the decline has been especially rapid. The
shipbuilders of New York and Massachu-
sets are gone, and the wooden shpbuilding
of the United States has found its last refuge
in Bath. In no city on the face of the earth
are so many wooden vessels built, and in
very few others do men find the business re-
munerative. But with the competition in
freights the profits from vessels have de-
creased very rapidly, until the depression in
the shipbuilding business hashscome too well
known to cause comment. Tn shipbuilders
of Bath are immediate sufferers by such
state of things, and the inevitable results,
diminution of profits and reduced wages are
following. At best the future of the indus
try which can hardly be said to do more than
linger in Maine, is dark. 1t is no wonder
then that the people of Bath watch with ex-
IRENE solicitude the attempt Of the Knights
of Labor to force up wages in the face of
the declaration from the employers that any
increase is impossible
