Wednesday evening. His audience was
smal but made it very lively for him. lie
invited them to ask questions, and said they
needn't fear to interrupt him. He devoted
his time to trying TO prove that protection
and free trade are both political hoaxes aud
have no bearing on the condition of the
workingmen. He also called Blaine a liar
Evidently Mr., Vibbert had forgotten the
temper AMI belief of the people of Maine
They wouldn't stand aspersions upon protec
ton or upon the esteem in which Mr.
Blaine, citizen of this State is
held. Signs of disapproval were manifested
Men began to whisper to each other. some
of the prohibitonists got mad. Finally Rev
y. o. Chaifee of Auburn rose and inter
rupted the meeting.
He said in subs ance that he believed in
prohibition but he also believed in protection
and didn't want any man to call Mr. Blaine a
liar. His interruption was cheered. Mr..
Vibbert was for moment staggered, but
recovered himself and said that he allowed
nobody to tell him how to make a speech.
From then out he showed every sign of hav-
ing lost his temper. Lentston Journai

Fur Treasurer,

What taxpayer has not, when hear
ing of the defalca,ions, embezzlements
and neglect of official duties SO com
mon throuy hout the United States
during the past six years feared for
the county funds? But whose fears
were not Immediately cal,ned when
informed that Joe Burkett had the
custody of the peoples money? Be-
cause this man, who is now seeking
the suffrages of the people for the Of
fee Of Treasurer, has been Deputy
Treasurer (under Democratic Treas
urer) for four years, and Treasurer
two. Two years ago he was nominal
ed but was betrayed by the people
who did not know him quite as well
then as they do now. This year The
people owe it to themselves to elect
this faithful officer. The Treasurer
has to give bond statutory, at that
in the sum Of 100000, the bondsmen
qualifying in 100000, and if the tax
payers think there are many residents
Of this county who can give such a
bond, they are mistaken. But Joseph
NJ. Burkett can, as there is not prop
erty- owner in this region who would
refuse to 60 on his bcnl. And al,
though with such man as he bond
is mere matter Of form, it is quite
important that he should be able &c
give a good one. The people should
and will. therefore elect him.
