VERMONT AND MAINE.

The contrasting results of the late cleo
tions in Vermont and Maine were not &C
cidental. They were not without good rea-
sons back of them. They finely illustrated
the Independence and the integrity Of the
Republican party. In Vermont. Paige,
the young man who ran for governor, in
troduccd Tammany methods into the poll
tics Of the Green Mountain state, carrying
and controlling the state convention in .
manner that created much scandal.
The older and more respectable members
Of the party were disguised and incensed.
At the polls they placed the seal of their
condemnation upon Mr.. Paige's methods.
The returns show that fully fifteen thous-
and Of them abstained from voting; but
because they disapproved Of Paige and his
methods, afforded no sufficient reason for
supporting the Democratic ticket. They
could not vote for Democrat and would
not vote for Paige. The result Is that the
latter goes into. Office discredited by the
non-support of the best elements of his

ward methods were adopted. An unex-
csptionable ticket was presented. By gen.
erai consent Speaker Reed was the central
figure in the fight. He and his party stood
boldly forth O. the exemplars and advo-
Gates of strict fidelity to Republican princi-
pies, as presented in the last national plat

lation 10 secure . free ballot and fair
count to every American citizen; for just

for the adoption and enforcement OF rules
that would secure the prompt enactment
of this and all other necessary legislation.

ended, as oil such contests should and will,
In IN overwhelming and most substantial
victory for the party Of principle and pro-
gress. It marks the line for the party to
pursue In all Of its contests. 1t marks q
line on which, when followed honestly and
courageousiy, the Republican party never
has failed and never will fail to come ont
victorious. It turns the tide which by one
and another division, by one and another
tampering with side issues. has been rum
ming against the success Of the party.
More than once this has fallen to the lot
of the Pine Tree state. In 1856 the election
of Hannibal Hamlin to the governorship
Of Maine started q current which four
years later landed Abraham Lincoln In the
presidential chair and dedicated the nation
TO freedom.
In 1850 wavering Of Maine in the state
election aroused the Republican party
from its apathy and stimulated it to its
highest efforts. resulting in the election of
Garfield. And the Maine election of last
Monday will impress ideas and induce ac-
tons that will make certain several states
and districts that were previously doubt
full. Dirigoi

AN IMPORTANT LETTER.

The mayor and the members of the city
council have united in letter, printed
elsewhere in this paper, to those citizens
who have protested against the perform
ance OF the contract made for the sale OF
the water and sewer bonds. This COM
munication is in good spirit and under
takes to show why, as matter of munlc-
ipal policy and sound economy, the recent
sale was justiiiable. To the PosT-lsTELLr-
GEscER the argument seems positively con-
elusive. The interests of the city required
the immediate development of the water
system and the good faith of the city called
for payment upon contracts already made.
The PosT-IsTELLrGEscEa is of the opinion
that the council acted in good faith, and
that upon the whole it acted wisely; aud it
believes further that the citizens who are
obstructing the sale of the bonds are un-
Willingly doing the city great injury.
