One Maine Mans Reasons,

To THE EDITOR OF THE Boston EVENING REC
ORD: There are reasons enough why level headed
American citizens, having the welfare of their
country at heart should not vote to give the dem

used all the power they could control during four
years, under the leadership of jefferson Davis to

over the lost cause the same parties for the past
three years, under the leadership of their other

"SileEt on Trusts" was .he caption the Ros-

speech at Goshen, Indiana. The speech was
devoted to trusts and Democrats who are con-

of President Cleveland, who has given material
aid to the sugar trust, was referred to by the

The Political Outlook.

Two weeks from next Tuesday the national
election VIII take place. At present every
thing points TO the election of Harrison and
Morton. The monster meetings. the grand
parades, the activity of clubs and leagues. the
enthusiasm and the arguments are all on the
Republican side. The tariff issue is paramount
and Democrats by hundreds and thousands
are leaving the party of free trade to enroll
themselves under the Republican banner of
protection. There are other causes which viii!
operate to decrease the Democratic vote-such
a. the trucking of the Administration to Eng
land and ClereIand'S pension vctoes-but the
tariff question appeals to the largest number.
and alone affords ample reason for desiring the
defeat of the present Administrations Repub-
lican arguments are replied to by rotten eggs
and blackguarjlism. an admission that they are
otherwise unanswerabie. This Style of argu-
ment indicates a losing side and side that
ought to lose. 1t is evident that the Demo-
cratic hope of success now rests solely Oh the
u>e of enormous sums of money in few
States, with the usual ballot box manipulat ion
in New York city; bur it is believed the tide
against them j. SO strong that their efforts will
be unavailing to prevent a sweeping Republi-
can victory Nov. 9Th.
