A Great Work.

1t is agreed on all sides that the two
-olumcs which MIR. Blaine has given to
he public entitled Twenty Years OF
Congress Is one Of the most useful CON T
tributions to the history Of the country |
that has been made in recent years. In
many respects it is wonderful work |
1t is wonderful for its vividness and ac-
curacy. Mr. Blaine was personally ac-
quaintcd with all the great men Of that
most remarkable period in the Nations
history. of them he speaks sofiyidly
that We see them and recognize their
characteristics 1t IS also Il remarkable
work in that the author has been able to
deal with political opponents with cand"r
and even with kindness Andrew john
son is a better man than We have been led
to believe and many of the leaders OF the
Democratic party are spoken of in words
which could not be more apprcciativc II
they were written by political friends
OF only two men does Mr. hi iue speak
in terms of hostile criticism-the monte
bank and political harlequin, Sc lurz and
Mr.. Bayard the present Secretary oil
State And no candid man can say that
he has not faithfully delineated the char
actcrs of both of these men. Mr. Bayard
has been posing before the country a
sound money man, a statesman and a
scholar Mr. Blaine simply shows by the
record that his votes have not been in IA
yor of the maintenance of the credit of
the Nation in seasons of peril, that he is
not scholar and not statesman unless
being narrow partisan and IL silent So
cessionist constitute craftsmanship. An
other conspicuous feature of the last vol
ume is that Mr.. Blaine, active as he was
and prominent as he was In the policy
pursued by his party during that period
renders Independent judgment. He de
clares that the impeachment of Andrew
johnson was not wise because his ac'
cusers had no case. He condemns the
Tenure of Office act and the action of tho
Senate in deposing Senator Sumner from
the Craftsmanship Of the Committee OF
Foreign Affairs, He also expresses The
opinion that President Hayes pursued the
only policy open to him in regard to the
South, such was public sentiment at thai
time. He reiterated his opinion ex
pressed in the Senate in 1878 that tn,
commercial world needs both silver ant
gold and that Il silver dollar should b'
coined equal in value to that of gold
The tone of the whole work is cheerful
and assuring. He believes that men il
both parties are generally honest in theil
actions and aims. Mr.. l,lainc's modest,
respecting himself is noticeable. He re
fcrs to himself only when it is neccssar,
as part Of the history. III he has tt
say of himself AS the leader Of the larg,
body of Republicans opposed to the thirt
term power is put into two lines. Blu
to be appreciated, the book must be reac
in full and carefully Then one will com
prchend the immense labor which Mr.
Blaine has performed and the wonderful
knowledge and power he has displayed il
its preparation.

Increase of Postage.

The Hon. James +. Wilson, of Iowa,
has introduced in the Senate, n bill doub
ling the rate of postage on fourth-class
matter. The rate now is l6 cents per
pound, andSthe proposed change makes
the rate tie same as letter posture. If this
increase is made. it will seriously cripple,
and to large degree destroy such lines
of trade as depend upon the mails for the
carving of their goods, while In nearly
every line it will largely increase the eX-
penscs of conducting business. In addi-
ton to the damage done to the business
interests of the country, such change
will prove serious hardship to the thous-
ands of people who. because of distance
from express offices, must depend largely
upon the postal facilities for receiving
articles of daily use. The rate in this
country is now excessive as compared
with other countries and ought to be de-
creased rather than increased. In Eng
land the rate is not exceeding | lb. &
cents Id. and not exceeding 3, - cents;
3 lib. and not exceeding 3, Is cents.
The Mail service is the wrong place to
begin to cut down the expenses of rum
ming the Government.

STATE,

james Weymouth, of Maine, has been
elected grand master workman of the
grand lodge of the Ancient order of
United Workmen.
The Peppcrill, Laconia and York manu-
featuring companies advanced wages
about ten per cent. This action Is volun-
tal'y ON the part of the corporations.
1t having been claimed that the wild
game of Eastern Maine was killed by
scores by crust hunting, game warden
writes to the Bangor Wing denying the
settlement so far as southern and eastern
Penob>cot and northern and eastern Han
cock counties are concerned He says
that fewer deer have been killed on the
crusts than on those of any winter for
years, and deer are more plenty than for
n long time. Hunters, he says, are losing
their eagerness for crust hunting and on
solid crusts ii will take smart dog to
catch deer.

MIR. EDITOR II notice that the FircsIn
surance companies that did business in
Maine last year made good thing out of
their customers the past year as the ratio
of losses to premiums received, was but
IS per cent. good saving business as
understand it would be about 20 per cent
and therefore, the companies made 10 per
cent above fair business out of the
Maine patrons for 1885, In Skowhegan
the loss could not have been % per cent
of the premiums. If the rates were as
high in other places as in Skowhegan the
loss in the state would not have been
above As per cent How long have we
got to endure this? What has become of
the petition so numerously signed? Has
some insurance man pigeon-holed or
pocketed it? A SUFFERER

County Attorney Bradbury of this
county, appeared before the Governor
and Council in connection with the case
of Robert A. Davis of Portland, private
bered, was arrested on charge of illegally
arresting Oler Gordon at Skowhcgan last
November, the latter being charged with
receiving stolen money. He was bound ov
cr to the March term of court when his
trial will probably occur, 1t is believed
however, that he will be acquitted as the
return on the warrcnt was made by dep
uty sheriff. Mr.. Dayispersonally arrested
Charles Young of Franklin county last
fall Both the arrests were made by him
as private detective. But it proved
that he had not complied with all the re-
qurcments of the law, neglccting to file
his bond, pay his fee of $50, and received
his commission, although appointed by
the Governor and confirmed by the Coun-
ell. Since then he has filed his bond and
turned his fee into the State treasury, but
the Governor and Council decided, last
week, to.wthold his commission until his
case had been settled in the courts.
\ hearing was given Wednesday last
on the petition for the pardon of j. J.
Conboy. in Kcnnebec Jail for the theft Of
500 in Pittsfleld, Conboy was tried at
the last September term of the Somerset
county court, convicted and scntencen to
Kennebec Jail, as there were not prison
accommodations in Somerset county.
County Attornc Bradbury appeared in IA
vor of granting pardon. Conboy was
inebrated when he committed the thief
and afterwards returned the money.

In Bath, Mayor Wakefield is reelected.
Saco re-elects Mayor Powers. In Gardi-
ner the citizens elected their candidate
for mayor but the city council is Republi-
can. Ellsworth is Democratic as usual.
Mr.. Landers of the Kennebec Reporter
was candidate for the Postmastership
of Gardiner, but of course stood no
chance against an old stager like Mr.
White. The Fairfield Journal, (Dem.)
says of the appointment of c. A. White
as postmaster at Gardiner:
Mr.. White was an Office holder under
Buchanan, and his age renders him total
ly unfit for the position of postmaster, to
say nothing about his unsavOry record as
. trading politician. This Is positively
the worst nomination In Maine, and will
prove 70 unpopular that the Democratic
party must feel the effect Of 1t In the COM
inr Campaign. Mr.. White was the candi-
date Of TIE Portland syndicate.
