Democratic Reform.

The size of both the Democratic vote
and majority in Louisiana is prima .facie
proof of gross fraud. With three parishes
estimated. Nichols has ll2,520 votes and
65.l50 majority. His majority now is p
go votes larger than Clevelands entire
vote in 1884, which was only $3.50.
1t was even a few votes larger than
Hancock's total vote in lSS0-65, 061. 1t
cannot he claimed that this was the result
of conversions from the Republicans, be-
cause the Republican vote. as stated. is
even hairs breadth larger than Blaine's
in 1854. and considerably larger than
Garfield's in 1880. These are the figures :
1850. IS ole: 1854. 46.34a; 1883, 1850.
The Democratic vote. which fell off 2.527
votes in 1854, rs compared with 1880. has
increased $4,000 votes in 1858 over 1884 in
a total vote of l70. 900. and that in an cleo
ton which in spite of the interest attach
ing to the local quarrel in New Orleans,
is less important than the Presidential
No unprecedented person can
increase. In fact. Democratic newspapers
of the frankest sort openly admit fraud.
We agree with the New York Tribune
which, in presenting these figures. warns
the country that Cleveland's plan is to en-
courage a solid South ut whatever cost to
the freedom and purity of the ballot.
Yet while these atrocities are being per-
petrated by Southern Democrats, the
Northern Mugwumps are constantly ac-
cusing the outraged Republicans of TO
menting sectional and race preiudiees and
of raising the bloody shirt.

The Boston Record would do we'll to be
little more modestly reticent in giving
advice to the Republicans of Maine. From
the beginning of their party's history they
have managed to get along tolerably well
without sophomore instructions from out
side parties. We think it was about 1920
that Maine ceased TO be a District, and
though still wanting somewhat in
Athenian retinemeuts and subtletics, ii
generally has had provincial common
sense enough to speak so as to be under
stood when duty called. All of the princi-
pal men talked of for the Republican nomi-
nation for the Presidency have due sense
of their responsibility, and know
fairly well when and how to speak, and
Mr.. Blaine rarely has been wanting in use
of tongue and pen whena public exigency
has demanded 1t. Neither the Maine
Republicans. nor Mr.. Blaine, have given
any occasion to the obviously unfair and
factional language of the Record, whose
unfriendly intent is very transparent.
Boston editors will do we'll to remember
that this year the people have taken the
Republican Presidential nomination into
their own hands, and the candidates, AS well
as their special friends, will have to abide
their decision. When the Record shall
have added more years to its age, it may
be more competent to volunteer its
opinions to those whose wisdom has not
been ripened by experience.

The Canada and wiscasset Railroad

Stranger things have happened than
would he the building and successful
operation of Il railroad tapping the British
Canadian Pacific and running through
Western Somerset, and the counties of
kcnnebec and Lincoln. to the magnificent
and unequalIed harbor of Wiscasset. An
examination of the map and contour of
the country shows at once that it is the
most reasonable and practicable outlet of
Canada to the ocean, and that if true rail-
road and commercial logic is permitted to
have its way, this proposed enterprise
will become a reality. If the road shall
have been completed while he lives, VIM.
Atkinson, of Embden, will see the fruits
of his labors. If he passes away before
the first train of cars makes its transit
through the three countries. he should
have a monument of Halowcll or Norridg-
walk granite. In the meantime let those
who are trying to keep alive and help on
the enterprise, have every reasonable and
practicable encouragement.

At Some Fairfield Stables.

The town of Fairfield in somerset
county has long had the reputation OF
producing some of the best horses in the
State. 1t was said that at the State FaiI
in Bangor in 1872 all the finest horses on
the exhibition ground we're from Fairfield
or were the produce of sires or dams
from that town. And as. few days
since, we were having "A pleasant chat on

most successful business men and noted
horse breeders in Maine, he said, "When in

pectations of the produce of the Wilkes
stations now in Maine crossed upon our
Knox and Gideon mares. The produce of
such unions ought to be very fine of the
class of driving or road horses for which
there is now so great a demand from this
State. Mr.. Lawrence believes that our
good horses now and our fine colts of the
future are not confined to any one strain
of blood-but are found in all families and
by different sires. As to pedgrees and
horses, he places about the same value
upon one as upon the otber-he
