HARRISON AND NORTON,
THE STANDARD BEARERS TO
LEAD THE REPUBLICANS TO
VICTORY.
HARRISON AND HORTON,

The Republican Convention
which assembled at Chicago on the
10th instant adjourned on Monday
night last after being in session Elk
days. The convention was compos
ed largely of the sturdlest Repuh.
licans in the country. Mr.. j. ii.
Thurston was elected temporary
chairman, who delivered a strong
and eloquent speech in behalf OF
Republican principles. Hon. NJ,
III. Es:ee Of California was elected
permanent chairman.
The auditorium building in which
the convention met, contained be-
tween ten and twelve thousand
spectators daily, who manifest
ed the greatest enthusiasm in the
proceedings.
There were ten names presented
60 the convention for the nomina-
ton and each was received with
demonstrations of applause from the
delegates and the galleries. Eight
ballots were taken in all resulting
on the last in the nomination of Gen
BENZ. Harrison, of Indiana, for the
Presidency. There were $50 votes
cast, of which Gen. Harrison receiv-
ed 544. The announcement of the
votes was received with the
widest thusiasm by the
delegates and the great audience
present, lasted which fifteen
minutes. There were three candi-
dates for ice~President, on which
only one ballot was taken resulting
in the nomination of Hon. Levi ? :.
Norton, of New York, which was
also received with great applause.
The nominations are both very
strong Ell and the Republicans Of
the country have received the nom
inations with great enthusiasm and
the Democrats with corresponding
fear.
The convention has done well IN pre-
senting to the country such candi-
dates, They will certainly carry
Indiana and New York as we'll as
Connecticut and New Jersey. The
talk about California being against
Gen. Harrison on account of his
record on the Chinese question is
the veriest nonsense. The battle
will be between the protection prin-
ciples and the platform of the Re-
publicans, and the free trade dogmas
of the Democrats. The latter will
be overwhelmingly defeated. The
election will result in a solid north
against solid south.

100000.

The New York Tribune says $500, 600
were sent here by the Democratic
committee last week to be used in carry
ing the State of Maine for Putnam and re-
form. What is to be done with this huge
sum Of money? But three weeks now re-
main until the September election. Within
this time this $500, 900 is to be spent, in addi-
tion to tie very large sum which has been
got through private subscriptions by Maine
Democrats. Leaving out of account this lat
ter amount, between now and election day
the Democratic expenditures must average
over ST., 900 for each week day to dispose of
the 100000 alone. Does anybody suppose
that any such sum can be spent in legitimate
campaign work? Why, if the State commit
tee should hire all the brass bands in the
State and have barbecue every day for the
next eighteen days they could not expend
that sum. Any pretense that 100000 will
be required for the legitimate expenses of
the campaign during the next three weeks is
absurd. What then Is to be done with it Z?
The greater part of it no doubt is to be
turned into corruption fund in the hope of
buying enough Maine voters to elect the
pOnhSSAotAO eiShCt n idISc SudIt VI III no
doubt will find its way into the first district,
which is the one which the Democrats look
upon with longing eyes because its represen-
tative is the Republican leader in the House,
and because the Republican majority is so
small here as to give ground for hope that
with plenty of money it may be carried by
the Democracy The game. however, will
not work The Democracy will find that the
Maine voter is not for sale. And the Demo-
cratic managers will find, what former Demo-
cratic managers have found, that large per
cent. OF the money doled out to Democratic
committeeman for distribution will stick to
their pockets But the fact that this huge
snm Of money is to be sent into Maine shows
the desperate nature of the Democratic cam
paign. Il shows, too. how hypocritical is
their pretense that their campaign is in the
interest of the people. A campaign in the
interest of the people need not rely upon
gold to buy the people. The people of Maine
are intelligent enough to understand the
issues and to know ON which side their in
terests lie. They are not to be hoodwinked
by free traders who denounce protection in
one breath and deny that they are for free
trade in the next. Neither can they be
bought by the gold Of the Democratic nation
al committee, and the attempt to do so will
recoil upon the party guilty of it and bury it
In September as deeply as it deserves.

a Little Woman.
rPittsfleld Advertiser.


On Monday, Aug, 9th, two children of Da-
vid Welt, of Parkman, were lost in the
swamp west of his buildings. Their names
are Bertha, not quite -, and George, 5 years
of age. They had run out after the cows,
bare-footed and bare-headed. by daylight
Tuesday morning, about so persons had as
sembed and systematic search was COM
menced About a, m, three rousing cheers
told us that the children were found, and
soon after three signal gins were fired to
bring in all from the woods. The little
folks were apparently none the worse off for
their nocturnal wandering This is the
story of the "little woman" They soon
found the cattle, but they travelled in every
direction excepting homewards. The chill
dren soon became completely bewildered,
and entirely lost their bearings. 1t was one
of the darkest of nights. As soon as Bertha
realized that they we're lost, she prepared for
the night. Finding dry knoll under some
leaning bass-woods, she at once collected
some dry leaves and made them bed. To
protect her little brother from the cold, she
removed her skirt and wrapped it closely
around him, then she took him in her arms
and held him closely throughout the long
night. She heard the men calling through
out the night, and frequently answered
them, but no one heard her. Here she was
found. Wasn't she little woman?"

The Argus regards it as singular that the
United States Senators should have com
mitted such a blunder as to frame bill Tor
tariff revision, when their national conven-
ton declared that the tariff must not be
touched but that the entire repeal of the
internal revenue taxes should be adopted
rather than reduce single tariff tax" If
the Argus will take the trouble to read the
Republican platform it will see that the
Republican national convention nowhere
declared that the tariff should not be
touched. This is the language:
The Republican party would effect all needed
reduction Of the national revenue, by repeating
taxes upon tobacco which are an annoyance and
burden to agriculture, and the tax spirits used
