One thing is certain, and that is that the
Louisiana immigration boom may as well be
at once abandoned. No self-respecting
Northern farmer or mechanic will deliber-
ately make his home in State which per-
openly encouraging ballot box stufing and
manipulating of returns robs honest citizens
of their rights and their means of self-pro-
lection. Louisiana is fated to continue to
lament that the industrious and intelligent
Americans whom she invites to settle in her
fertile territory prefer the blizzard swept
plains of the extreme Northwest to her
genial climate, and the reason is not far to
seek

The Belfast Age now attacks the ten-hour
law, calling it zone of those namby pamby
statutes which assumes u guardianship over
the people, and abridges their natural liber-
ty to dispose of their labor as they judge
proper, and takes children out of the care
and authority Of their parents who are their
natural and proper guardians" The Age
cannot be acquainted with the fact that in
some of the large manufacturing towns of
Maine the parents who should be natural
and proper guardians" are in fact totally ig-
norant and neglectful of their duties as pa
rents. and intent only on getting all the la
Dor possible out Of their children.

THE REMUNERATION OF MIR. REED.
TBiddeford Journal

The Republicans of the historic First Con-
gressional district did themselves honor to-
day by placing in nomination, without dis
senting voice, Hon. Thomas B. Reed. He
has already served nearly twelve years, and
this is his seventh consecutive nomination
To say that he has served his district faith
fully and well does not express it. Going to
the House at critical period of the cOun-
try's history, and but little known outside of
his own district, he very soon took high
rank as a legislator and DICTATOR. By reason
of rare parliamentary Skill thorough equip
men: upon national questions, and readiness
mantle of leadership of the House, which
had fallen from the shoulders of Mr.. Blaine,
became his by undisputed right. While the
Republicans of the First district are proud
of so able and distinguished a representa-
tive, they recognize the fact that he is no
longer their representative merely, but that
he enjoys a national reputation as repre-
sentative American in a broad and noble
sense.

The Republicans of Maine completed their
Congressional ticket yesterday by the unani-
nous denomination of Hon. Thomas b.
Reed in the First District Convention at
Portland. Mr.. Reed is recognized as the
having received the complimentary vote of
his colleagues for Speaker and the enthu-
siasm with which he was renominated by
reclamation shows that his constituents
fully appreciate the able manner in which
he has represented them in Congress. The
resolutions declare that Mr.. Blaine is the
first second and only choice of the Republi-
cans of the District for Standard Bearer in
the National campaign.

THE HOME MARKET.
-

Mr. Burrows of Michigan, in his admira-
BILE speech against the Mills bill, called at
tention to the fact that, with the exception
of cotton and tobacco, "a per cent. of all the
agricultural products of the country are con-
sumed al home. The Importance of this
fact is far too little appreciated.

The Illinois Republicans expressed de-
cided preference for Judge Gresham for
Presidential candidate, and instructed their
delegates to work for his nomination. Judge
Gresham is resident of Indiana, and hence
the "fayorite son" claim could not have been
the basis of his endorsement in Illinois The
action of the convention, therefore, can only

The Maine Republicans have the good
sense when they get an efficient representa-
tive in Congress to keep him there. 1t has
thus come about that our State, though it
has but four representatives, has, and has
had for years. as Mr.. Depew points out, an
influence in Congress altogether out of pro-
portion to the number of its representatives
and greatly in excess of it. AS rule, pro-
vided he has capacity and industry, the
longer a representative is kept in the House
the more valuable he becomes to his constt-
uents and the more influential lin shaping
legislation. The Republicans of Maine have
recognized this fact by renominatiDg and re-
electing for many terms in succession her
present distinguished representatives. Mr..
Reed was first nominated and elected in 1876,
and has served therefore six consecutive
terms or twelve years. Messrs. Dingley,
Milliken and Boutelle were first nominated
and elected in 1882 and have continued in
Congress ever since.

The Catholics Of Ireland are apparently at
work devising ways to circumvent the Pope's
latest decree in regard to the ''plan of cam
paign" and boycotting. The Dublin Free
mans Journal contains a letter said to
come from "high ecclesiastic" which takes
the ground that such DEGREES are not issued
in virtue of the Churchs teaching authority,
or ndgisteriuna, but of the legislative and
administrative power, or imperium, and
though confirmed by the Pope do not pur-
port to be and are not er cGthedra utter
ances, because they are not the utterance of
the Pope at all, but of particular congrega-
ton of cardinals, and, though approved by
the Pope, there is no obligation to accept
such decisions as infallibly correct

BLAINE ON TRUSCN.

Hon. James G. Blaine made a speech
at Portland. Maine, on the 18th in
slant during which he defined his posi-
ton on "tlusts" in che following lun-
guage:
"WLen President Cleveland de-
livered his m essage he had something
to say to the American people about the
danger of trusts" think there have
siucn been no Democratic papers in the
country, whethe: they understood the
meaning of the word or not, that have
not boon constantly warning the people
as to tie horrible danger of trusts"
Well, shall not discuss trusts this
afternoon. 1 shall not venture to say
that they are altogether advantageous OF
disadvantageous. They IRE largely
private affairs with which neither PreAi-
d ,n! Cleveland nor any privats citizen
LAS any particular right to interfere. I"
The Chicago Tribune which is an ar
dent supporter OF. Blaine, or rather of
Harrison aud Morton we should say,
held a somewhat different view OF the
subject when it said:
"What is trust but combination of
tlrff-protected manufacturers to st,angle
competition, monopolizc industry and
its products aud fleece consumers2 II
has no other purpose, whether it is n
sugar, steel or lend pencil trust
The ultra tariff tax is th.i' sole support.
The connection between t riff monop-
oily and trustism is clear. So long as
excessive duties are maintained, thes o
trade rings will be enabled to bleed the
people. Reduce these duties to de-
cent. reas nable figure, and they will be
smashed"

Hon TARIFF newspapers argue that
protection is needed to foster home manN
ufactures and increase production. 1t is
time enough, one of them remarks, to
speak about foreign market for Ameri-
can manufactures when the home demand
is fully met at the same time pointing to
the statistics of imports to show that this
point is far from being reached. This
argument contradicts what the manufac>
turers say They are constantly plead
ing over. production as Justification for
closing their works from time to time.
Both positions cannot be correct. The
truth is that the high tariff enables man
ufacturers to form trusts. stop production
and raise prices to point just below
where it would pay to import in OPPOSE
ton. They hereby gain an increased
profit on smaller quantity produced and
save in wages. The tariff is thus two
handed weapon of opposition. 1t
pinches consumers through high prices,
and it squeezes the labor class, who are
the victims of the over production plea.

Jail at Cambridge the first of the week
He was apprehended at Tecumseh, Neb
on warrant charging HIM with attempt
ing to poison-placing poison in food
Goodrich came to Henry county num-
Der of years ago, and was for time en-
ployed as coal miner at Cleveland. He
married Clara Graeff and had one child
a little boy. He and his wife have moi
lived happily together, and it is under
stood that he has treated her shamefully
She has some property, and whatever of
it he could get control of was spent reck'
lessly. This spring she decided to apply
for a divorce. He made numerous
threats that she would never have one,
but they finally separated and about the
first of May he left for Nebraska. Ours
ing the separation, before he went west,
Mrs. Goodrich remained with her sister.
Mrs. Evans. After his departure. she
returned home acco mpanied by the sister
and their children. In preparing meal,
Mrs. Goodrich set a sugar bowl on the
table One of the children daobed some
chewing gum into it and put it in her
mouth, at once splitting it out and declar-
ing it was bitter. This attracted no att
tention at the time. but having used some
of the sugar for preparing salad. sh e
found on tasting it that the salad was
very bitter This. when she recalled the
numerous threats of her husband,
aroused Mrs, Goodrich's suspicion. She
didn't know what was in the sugar or
salad. but as precaution, threw out the
salad. As she thought over the matter,
she concluded to take the sugar to town
and have it examined. There were two
bowls of it in the house, both containing
probably two pounds of sugar. These
she took to a chemist and the sugar,
upon examination, was found to be fairly
filed with strychnine, 1t was so thick
that with tweezers were picked out doz>
ems of big crystals, enough to poison fifty
men. Naturally, Mrs, Goodrich was
Mortified over the narrow escape of her
self and child from being poisoned. She
had no suspicion of any other person
than her husband. The facts we're at
once laid before the states attorney and
