AT THEIR recent convention thirty
Eve members of the Southern Presby-
terrain Assembly voted that, in their
opinion, man was developed from a
lower form of animal life. This would
seem to be square going back on the
dust of the earth theory, and would
also indicate that, 10 the opinion of the
thirty-fve, it isn't necessary to believe
in the Bible in order to be church
member.

GOOD WORK.

The National Democratic Convention
has done it's work, and done 1t well
What has beer done is of the very best
The delegates showed neither cowardlce
nor fear. SiGce the war the party has
been slowly and gradually getting back
to its true position. 1t has progressed
by degrees, gaining a little all the time.
1t has trimmed" one year, and been
more self-assertive next. Now 1t has
trenched on the ground of the enemy
and made love to the opposition !;
then it has been cunning and
endeayored to sneak into power. 1t
has sought to prove its loyalty to the
dation by throwing itself at the feet OF
the supt r-loyal. 1t has tried to win the
"soldier vote" by making soldier It's
standgrd-bearer. At times 1t has been
insincere if not dishonest, and all the
time it has lacked the courage and
bravery in the right which was oncs
characteristic of the grand old party 1t
has been afraid that it would hurt some-
body's feelings and that if it did not gain
q vote it would lose one. Never
theless there has been a steady advance,
and to-day the party stands before the
country with head erect, proud OF it
self and its achievements. courageous
in daring to Say what it is and in what
it believes, and caring only for the
grand principles of human govern
ment which have made the organiza-
ton the party of the people, the cham
pion of human rights. There is no
trimming, no quackery, no dodg-
ing in the platform formu-
lated and adopted in the 81.
Louis convention. The declarations are
plain, unequivocal, unnistakable.
There has beeu no attempt to
"straddle," no effort to avoid an issue.
Nobody will be at loss to understand
exactly what is meant, to know pre-
sisely where the National Democracy
stands on the questions of the day.
None of the 'ploughing round" policy
which was so prominent feature IN
the conventions of the past sixteen
years, can be discsrned in the work at
st. Louis.
Again the only ''policy" found in the
nominations Is that which should al
WAYS be found in nominations-the
policy to select the very best men for
The Offices to be filed. regardless of
whether or not they will please this
interest, or anEagonize that element,
or ALLEVIATE such faction, or win votes
from a certain CLIQUE. Craftsmanship,
honesty, integrity and administra-
tive ability wore required at the
head of the nation, and the men in
whom those qualities and qualifica-
tons were found in the highest degree,
were nominated. The candidates are
true and answering Democrats, who
are not afraid to proclaim their
Democracy from the hous3tops, and
who, would rather accept defeat as
Democrats than win victory by turning
to the right or to the left and casting
doubt on the honesty and sincerity Of
their political belief.
With such a ticket and such plat
form the party will win or the Ameri-
can people no longer love the principles
upon which the Republic is founded.

OUR NEIGHBORHOOD.
EAGLE LAKE, Aug. IS

EAGLE LAKE, Aug. rs.
Eagle Lake Republican club met in
hail last Thursday evening, and a large
gathering of ladies and Republicans
were present. We have now ladies'
Republican glee club in connection with
our club, and last Thursday evening l
must say that the glee club happily sur
prised us. They were on hand with a
full band and organ, and the way they
handled the campaign songs was with
great credit to themselves. The hall
was we'll filled, and not having any
speakers from abroad Mr.. Cummins and
others gave some very able remarks on
the tariff, and received applause from
the audience. Taking everything In
connection with the Republican club it
was grand success, and the audience
were all well pleased. A few Prohibi-
tionists were present, and | think went
away feeling that their cause was fail
ure, at least the remarks made by the
speakers must have left that impression
on their minds. And now let me say
here that the Republican club is alive
and hard at work, and when the ballot
is counted Nov. 9th we expect to have
our work done for the year of 1888, but
until then we shall continue to work full
time, and now and then, put in an extra
day for Harrison and Morton. We
should be glad to meet any of our Re,
publican friends Sept. 4th, Tuesday
evening, and you will ever find US on
the lookout to do you good.

BLAINE'S BIG MEETING.
Where Will Mr.. CIeveland's Next
SomersauIt Take Him?

CALAIS, Me-, Aug. 29.-Hon. James q.
Blaine addressed an audience of from
5000 to 5000 people in this city this af-
ternoon. He devoted the opening por-
ton of his speech to an attack upon the
Mills bills, which, he said, might aptly
be termed ga bill for the destruction o!
the material interests of Maine" 1t is
a bill to throw open our American mar
ket to Canada without consideration, re-
compense or exchaL ge of any kind. The
giving away of our markets impressed
him as all the more remarkable because
the very men who passed the bill IN the
Democratic House have been for years
advocating reciprocity with Canada. The
bill gave away nearly every material in
terest of Maine, and viewing il merely
as a trade or SWAP" he should be ut
terly ashamed of any Maine horse jockey
who could not do better.
Commenting on President Cleveland's
retaiiatory message he asked why il
might not be reasoned that, as soon az
the Senate defeats the Mills bill the
President will not make another somer-
sault and change as radically in regard
to tariffs as he has in regard TO the fish.
cries. Said Mr.. Blaine,
May not his belated letter of acceptance dis
close such a radical but temporary change as
will show him a protectionist up TO the point
of a prohibitory tariff Would Il ne whit
more inconsistent than his sudden conversion
on the fisheries?
He had nothing to say against Canada
They do exactly as they have right to
do, and he neither disputed their right
nor envied their position.
II they come to us they can have what VIC
have, but Il Is an absolute wrong against the
rights of American citizens that millions OF
men who owe the United States no allegiance
who take no part IN with us, who are Of us, but
choose to be foreign to us, shall have exactly
the same share in our markets and the same
privileges OF trade under our flag that We
have,

The utter lack OF reliability and pr

THE utter lack OF reliability and prln-
ciple which Democratic papers possess
is well shown in their treatment OF
Ig. Donnelly Just now. In times past,
these sheets have had nothing but full
some praise for anybody who would
organize an Independent party on the
labor, farmer or temperance racket.
Through some sort of reasoning they
think that Donnelly's appearance at this
time is Republican scheme, though
there is no one with semblance OF Re
publicanism about him on the ticket or
engaged in the convention. But these
Democrats had another arrangement
fixed up-that is, to have AlbertSchetfer
run independent after he is beaten in
the Republican convention, and OF
course Donnelly coming in at this time
and occupying the field spoils their calcu-
lations. Therefore Mr.. Donnelly must
take the full charge of their mud bat
teries.

Retaliatory Act.

Congress Disposed to Grant All the Power
Needed for the President to Enforce the
Retaliatory Act.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 30-The sub-com-
mittee of the house committee on foreign
affairs having under consideration the
proposed legislation for the enforcement
OF the retaliatOry law are at work, and
the prospects are that at least partial
report will be made to the full commit
tee before morning. The subcommittee
is working upon the Wilson bill, and
have amended the section relating to
canal tolls, so as to make it perfectly
clear, and they are now at work upon the
section giving the president power to
suspend the law permitting the ship
ment of goods in bond through our terri
tory without the payment of customs
duties. Mr.. Hit, of Illinois, a Republi-
can member of the subcommittee says
there is no disposition whatever to draw
party lines on this question; that the Re-
publicans are willing to speedily give the
president all the power he wants in this
matter, and that only opposition shown
so far comes from members of both
parties in the northwest, where, it is held,
the enforcement of the retaliatory law
would work great injury to the
shipping and farming interests. Mr..
Hit thinks the additional legislation will
be granted.

other National or State issues, but a de-

that other than Republican influences
