WORD WITH MR.. CLIFFORD.

The Hon. William Henry Clifford is re-
ported to have said at Bridgton, Friday
evening, that the Lying Republican news
papers had unsupported his North Berwick
speech" The PRESS is solely responsible
for the report of that speech. Mr.. Clifford
had fine opportunity the other night at
City Hall to accuse the PRESS of lying and
point out wherein its falsehood consisted.
A large part of his audience was in political
sympathy with him and any explanation of
his language at North Berwick, even had it
been pretty absurd one, would have been
grcedily swallowed. But he made none
His organ, the Eastern Argus, would have
been most happy any time during the past
week to have accused the PRESS Of misqnot-
ing Mr.. Clifford. 1t has not done so, how
ever. On the contrary it has practically adj
mitted that the PRESS quoted him correctly.
Mr.. Clifford's speech was reported by COM
petent stenographer of long experience, who
had no motive under the sun to misrepre-
sent him. The language attributed to him
by the PRESS was the exact language Mr..
Clifford used at North Berwick. If it were
not Mr.. Clifford could easily point out
wherein it differed. He has not done this,
and the PRESS defes him to do it. We don't
blame him a bit for trying to wriggle out of
it. We don't wonder he is angry. But he
should be angry with himself and not the
PRESS. The PRESS has simply quoted his
language. If that language shows that he
has been performing as a demagogue it is
the fault of the man who used it and not the
paper that reported it. The PRESS advice
to Mr.. Clifford is to hereafter appear in his
true character; he will not then make himself
the laughing stock of everybody who knows
him as he has been doing for the last few
weeks bv posinp as a laboring man.

THE DUTY OF THE HOUR,

The campaign is ended and all that re-
mains to be done is to record the will of 1.-THE
people at the polls. The right to vote is
something more than privilege of which
the citizen may avail himself if he chooses, it
is duty incumbent upon him as a citizen.
Our government is founded upon the theory
that every citizen will feel sufficient interest
to prompt him to study the issues involved
in every election and examine the character
and capacity of the men put in nomination
and vote in the way that seems to him most
likely to promote the general good. When
ever any considerable number of the people
from indifference or other cause fail to exer-
else the right of suffrage, then there is not
that full expression of opinion which eur
governmental theory contemplates. A re-
public IN which any considerable number of
citizens habitually refuse to vote is a repub-
lie only in name. Loyalty to our form of
government if nothing else requires from
every citizen at every election one vote.
Every man who can possibly get to the polls
today should do so, and record his opinion in
regard to the issues involved, and his choice
of the men in nomination.
There are three tickets in the field at this
election Tor the voter to select from-the
Republican, Democratic and Third Party
Prohibition. The issues which they repre-
sent and the men which compose them have
been frequently discussed, and no additional
light can be thrown upon them at this time.
Either the Republicans or Democrats will
carry the election and control affairs of the
State Tor the next two years to come This
result is foregone conclusion. A vote for
the Third Party candidates is therefore in
effect vote for one or the other of the great
parties. 1t can have no other practical re-
suit. Republicans who are meditating voting
that ticket should bearin mind that the only
possible effect OF such a vote is to assist the
Democracy, who are ayowed enemies of
prohibition. As between the candidates of

lucky service as fell to the lot of any of our
old Maine organizations.
1t is hardy fair to make any adverse criti-
cism of an author so modest as Mai. Small.
He laments that his comrades would not
answer his letters or assist him in history
writing. Such are the ways of soldiers.
The history of many regiment is still I'M
written for this very cause. Major Small
and all who have helped him deserve well
for their perseverance in an almost thank
less task.
The statistical tables are full of valuable
matters especially interesting to members
and friends of the regiment.

THE REPRESENTATIVE TICKET.

The Representative ticket, which is al
ways of Importance, is of double Importance
this year because the next Legislature will
elect United States Senator. The Republi-
can Convention selected ticket which
is worthy of the unanimous support of
the Republicans of Portland, not-only be-
cause 1t is made up of true and earnest Re-
publicans, who have been constant to the
interests of the party, but also because it is
composed of men who are thoroughly identi-
fed with the material interests and pros
perity of the city and are fully compe-
tent to protect and advance them in the
Legislature. The interests of the party and
the interests Of the city will be safe in their
hands.
