Nrw YORK. Nov. 10-John Demorest
Twas is a man of so modest and retiring a
disposition that be cannot even soiloquize
witbout apologizing for obtruding his re-
marks upon his own attention. Besides
this modesty he also possesses some other
r;rt,es which are now very rare in this
arId 81 among them being temperance of

~ ordinary influences induced Mr.. Jones, on

oa,oons within a mile of his house. and to
Fem with nineteen Manhattan cocktails,
md every indication of hopeless inebriety.
Mr.. Jones has recently moved to No.
1175 Zig-Zag avenue, Brooklyn. He had
no previous acquaintance with the city. but

IN the CITY. On the evening referred to he

the policeman, IAN dunno no such street.

When Mr.. Jones reached the corner indi-
Gated he perceived that it was occupied by
a saloon. So were all the other corners in
sight. 1t is popularity of Brooklyn. Mr.
Jones had never been in saloon in his life,
and did not know the etiquette Of such
places. He had an indistinct notion that it
would be necessary to ''set 'em up" for the

he meekly asked if Manhattan was the

BANGOR, Sept. 1.-THE following de-
spatch has been sent by Congressman Bou-
telle:
Hon. j. III. Manley, Chairman of Republican
State Committee, augusta, Me-:
Our great victory grows as fuller returns
come in. A summary from 364 towns gives
Burleigh 70,750, Putnam 52,117, and Cushing
2,464; Burleigh's plurality 1858; net gain
OF 5,799 over the plurality of 1886. The
same ratio in the remaining towns will give
Burleigh more than 10000 plurality.
Penobscot county shows more than 300
gain, and gives Burleigh plurality of 1900,
electing all the county candidates, including
sheriff, for which the Democrats made a
fierce fight.
Washington, Aroostook and Piscataquis
counties all show heavy gains and give re-
markable Republican pluralities. The re-
turns of the governors vote thus far re-
ceived from towns Of the Fourth Congress
ional District give Burleigh, 1S,2sS; Putnam,
1928; Gushing, 799. Burleigh's plurality
5,l65. The ratio would give about 100 Dem
ocratic plurality in the towns to be heard
from, but as my vote appears to run very
generally ahead of the ticket, my plurality
can hardly be less than 5000 against 3l75 two
years ago, notwithstanding the most desper-
ate efforts and lavish expenditure ever made
by the Democrats to capture the district
congratulate you heartily upon the signal
ability with which you have conducted the
State campaign against the whole power of a
National administration, fighting for its life.
and unite with you in rejoicing that under
the inspiring leadership Of Mr.. Blaine we
have won triumph SO emphatic and CON-
plete that it clearly heralds great National
Republican victory in November.
Yours Truly,
C. A. BoUTELLE.

EEPINc AND COMPLETE.
Mr.. ManIey Thinks 1t Better Than
Anything Since '56.
Especial to the Press, |

AUGUSTA, Sept 11.-Mr. Manley, chair
nan of the Republican State committee.
said today: 81 regard the victory won in
Maine yesterday as the most sweeping and
complete one under all the circumstances
achieved in the State since 1856. 1t must be
remembered that in 1884 with demoralized
organization, the Democratic party threw
$4,000 votes. Yesterday with the best or
ganization the Democratic party has had in
Maine fe many years. with all the federal
officeholders to aid and contribute, with the
national committee supplying funds, and
with the word passed along their entire line
that they were to reduce the Republican
plurality to 5000, they have only been en-
abled to poll 81, 900 votes. On the other hand,
the Republicans polled the largest vote ever
cast in Maine, carrying every county. cleo
ting every senator and about f0ur-ffths of
the representatives.
The result cannot but be beneficial to the
welfare of the State, and it will have a
potent and powerful influence throughout
the country. 1t means that American in
dustries shall receive the fostering care of
this government; it means that the United
States shsll continue to grow and prosper,
preserving for its people, its own markets.
1t means that we shall not surrender the
of England; it means prosperity and happi-
ness to the wageworkers, and it means that
we shall take the first rank among the nations
of the EARTH"

while s.. S. Brown ran behind
his ticket to the tune OF 696.
Immediately on the receipt of the news of
victory, the Republicans went nearly wild.
Never was such time seen before in this
city. An impromptu torchlight procession
with two bands, was held In the evening" the
Harrison and Morton battalion, whose cam
paign uniform consisted Of tall white hats
and blue capes lined with red, leading off.
Their capes were all turned inside out, and
their hats were encircled by wide red ribbon.
as were also the hats of White Hat Brigade
and citizens generally. The procession
marched all over town, and although it was
too short notice for the citizens to
illuminate generally, still large
number of houses were decorated,
with Chinese lanterns and flags, red lights
and fireworks, together with the vermillion
colors of the long procession giving decid
edly brilliant hue to the scene The Republ-
cans are much elated over their victory and
gave the town the reddest coat tonight that
any Maine city ever received. A grand
t0rchlight procession was held, uniformed
clubs and delegations being present from
Skowhegan, Oakland, Fairfield and Winslow.
Every Republicans residence along the line
Of march was Illuminated
The city shows the careful and skillful
manipulation of the Democrats in the divis-
ion of the wards. Although the Republicans
carry the city by plurality of II votes the
Democrats capture five wards out of seven,
earring ward three by but single vote. S.

cHEERED IN NEW YORK.
How the Glorious News From Maine
Was Welcomed There.

New YORK, Sept. 1.-THE building occu-
pied by the Republican National Committee
was crowded last night by Republicans who
waited anxiously for news from Maine.
The greatest interest was taken in the result
of Congressman Reeds candidacy, and when
the news came that he had been reelected
by majority of about 1000 the applause
that greeted it was loud and hearty. If pos
sible the cheering that followed the an
nouncement that the State had gone Repub-
lican by 10000 was louder. Direct commu-
nication between Portland and the Republi-
con headquarters was had all the evening,
and the latest dispatches only added good
news to that already obtained. Levi P.
Morton remained in town for the night to
await the returns from Maine. He was
greatly pleased with the result, as were the
members of the National Committee. The
corridor of the Fifth Avenue Hotel was
crowded during the entire evening The
Republicans who met there were all In the
best of spirits, because of the fine showing
in Maine.
