Pointers for 1890.

The New York Press has obtained the
opinions cf the editors Of some of the lead
ing democratic newspapers Of the country
as tc who the democratic candidate
for President in 1892 will probably be, and
if these opinions represent party sentiment
fairly, Mr.. Cleveland would be renominated
with q rush if the nomination were to be
made at this time. Next to Mr.. Cleveland
in popularity is Gov Hill, but with some
OF the editors Mr. Whitney, Gen. Palmer,
and Mr. Carlisle are favorites. While the
answers to the question of the Press were
lot very numerous, they came from every
section of the country.
There are two or three things in the an
swers worth calling attention to, the most
important of which is that tariff reform
does not seem to have lost its hold upon tie
people by having been defeated last fall.
On the contrary, it appears to have gained
in favor. It's advocates are as enthusiastic
over it as ever, they believe in it as earnestly
as ever, and with excellent opportunities
to feel the pulse of the people on this
question, the editors report that it will be
the controlling issue in 1892 One newspa.
per published in Indianapolis thinks, how
ever, that the tariff issue may be overshad-
owed, if the republicans in congress pass the
election law for congressman which has
been proposed. Another interesting point
is that the western democrats are willing to
assist in renominating Mr.. Cleveland, but
if Mr.. Cleveland should not be a candidate
again, they want western man.
OF course it is too early to speak with
much confidence concerning the probable
democratic nominee. The nominee may be
a man who to-day is not very prominent in
the party. The expressed opinisns are
probably a fair indication of democratic
choice at this time, however, and they show
that Mr.. Cleveland has lost nothing in the
Of the people by defeat.

Chief Justice Fuller's daughter, who
eloped recently with ayoung Chicagoan
named Aubrey, is not as wise as her father,
nor is young Aubrey as knowing as his pa
ternal ancestor. The other day a sleek
looking young fellow went to the Aubrey
house and told the young wife that there
was at the custom house, addressed to her
self, package from Paris containing costly
vases, the charges upon which amounted to
Sl4 9s, and that the charges must be paid
at once, or there would be additional ex-
pense. Mrs. Aubrey handed over to the
young fellow all the money she had, about
s., and when her husband came home she
easily persuaded him to let her have $40
more. When Aubrey pater came in. how
ever, he created wild CONSERVATION in the

been great reader and collector Of historical
data, Il patron of art and a public spirited
citizen.
The building has frontage of seventy-two
feet and a depth Of sixty-two, aud is very
handsome, ns well US convenient for the pur-
pose. Mr.. Baxter made u thorough study Of
public library buildings before fixing upon
design, and gave no one u hint Of his inten-
ton until the building as it now is was
thoroughly planned The main entrance is
into handsome hallway, which leads to the
room Of the Portland Art club. Beside it
are the boys reading room and the general
reading room. Up stairs are the hall where
the Maine Historical society viii hold its
meetings tho library rooms and other dfis-
ions usual in such buildings Around the
rooms are busts and portraits Of Maine's dis
tlnguished citizens Tho library now con-
tains II little over $1,000 volumes, including
some very valuable historical papers; and
the data of some of these were collected and
reduced to readable form by Mr. Baxter him
self
The gem of the art collection, as Portland
people think, is tho work of Names own
artist, Paul Akers. This is the statue known
as the Dead Pearl Diver" Nj. Akers finest
work 1t combines simplicity, purity md
beauty in a rare degree. Stretched on q
smooth rock ut the bottom Of the sen lies the
drowned pearl diver, youth Of perfect
manly proportions, impressive in repose, grace
full even in death The statue was valued al
$4,000 but the widow of tho artist reduced
the price one-half, that the Portland Public
Library association might secure it. The
Portland Society Of Art has its building II
the rear Of the new library building.

Medieval romances assert that fairies are

Friday is, according to the Welsh, Irish
and Scotch, day consecrated to the fairies
who then can do much mischief.
A Dutch wife will, ii she can, obtain
