The result in Maine is significant
as dispelling suspicious and appre-
tensions respecting revolt against the
tariff bill and lack of harmony in the
republican ranks. For many weeks
the democracy has been raising the
cry that the republican party was rent
asunder by political feuds and cabals,
and that especially in Maine its lead
ers would be found skulking in their
tents and stabbing one another in the
dark Differences of opinion respect
ing various features of common
protective policy have been magnitied
into broad lines of cleaving within the
party. When Secretary Blaine in
comprehensive sentence urged the re-
election of every member of The Maine
delegation he was misrepresented as
soliciting the speakers defeat; and
Mr.. Reeds mastery exposition of
the tariff bill was tortured into repu-
diation of the policy of charging the
nations foreign trade by means of
reciprocity. The result of the cleo
ton clears the air and brushes the
cobwebs from the sky. The repub-
lican party is revealed as united and
triumphant host, loyal to its tradi'
tions and principles and banded to-
gether to promote the highest aims oi
economic independence, American
civilization and political regeneration

Farmers and the Tariff.

Some plain and sensible remarks
upon the relation of protection to
farming were made recently IN the
United States senate by Moody OF so.
Dakota. AS the representative OF
state whose population is largely en-
gagged in agriculture, Mr.. Moody has
given especial study to the policy OF
protection as it affects his constltu-
ents. The Press quotes with COM
mendation these strong and convinc-
inc words from his speech:
Now, Mr.. President, the position L
take is this: If more people were en-
gagged in manufacturing and mining,
and thus the consumption was en-
hanced, who could doubt but what
the business of farming would be
more prosperous.
The trouble is we pay too much to
the foreign manufacturer, whose op-
eratives we can not reach with oul
nroduce. If the millions which are
annually expended for the products
of the foreign loom and workshop
were expended in our country to pay
the mechanics and laborers who woulC
be necessarily engaged in like pro
duction here, there would be no com
plant of depression in the bushes
of farming nor in the prices of labor
What this country needs above al
processes for its prosperity is the EN-
plovment of all our people who ar
now idle, and an equalization of tn
: different kinds of employment.
The farmer on the western prairie
though he may not have at the tim

Some Comparisons.

There has been considerable crow
inc in the past of certain democratic
journals as to the democratic gains
assumed to have been made in Yer
mont this year. Or, to put it the 9TH
er way, republican losses. There is
a large apparent republican loss of
comparison to be made with 1880,
when both parties voted nearly their
full strength. But if comparisons be
made with 1886, the last 'soff'' year
election, the figures will stand almost
exactly alike, except that there was
considerable scratching and cutting
down of the vote on the governor
candidate. This resulted from the
long, hard, and, in some cases, ac-
rimonious, pre- convention battle.
Some men were determined to show
their anger over defeat by scratching
Mr.. Pages name.
If comparison is made, taking Or
leans county as basis-and here was
one of the strongest anti-Page coun-
ties-we find the following: The vote
for Ormsbee in 1886 was 2597 FOL
Dillingham; in 1888, 1927; fol
Fletcher, republican nominee fol
acknowledgement in 1890, 2,599
The republican vote this year fell OF
lust 2 votes from 1886. The demo
cratic vote for the three years com
mencing at 1886 was 849, 953, an(
81 in 1890. Hence while the re
publican vote was 2 less in 1890 thai
IN 1886, the democratic vote was oni
% more. This is too small a differ
ence to brag over or to predict any
thing by.
1t will turn out, if the ticket out
side the governor vote is considered
that the republican majority in lo9
exceeds that of 1SS6-the last o
f wear. Hence the Atkins rooster
and outside growing indicate nothln
this wear.

Reciprocity.

The subject of reciprocity which
has been agitating congress for some
time, is absorbing attention through
out the country. 1t is the carrying
on of trade with foreign countries on
the principle if they grant US favors
in the line of trade we will recip-
rocate. Secretary Blaine in his at
tempt to solidify the friendships al
ready existing, and to increase trade
and commercial relations already es-
tablished, believes the American ma
tiyes. north and south, have felt the
necessity of establishing free trade
relations with them in consideration
of like reciprocity in favor OF the
United States. This is on the prln-
ciple that we will open our ports to
the free entry of your goods if you Will
open your countries to the free ad-
mission of the agricultural and manu-
featured products of our country.
The great tariff bill now under con-
sideration in congress will, without
doubt, be so made as TO embody the
reciprocity idea. This will put into
the hands of the treaty making pow
ers of the country-the president ano
senate the right to make such treaty
arrangements with foreign countries
as to create a market for American
nroducts, and to admit such raw ma
terials or other stuff at low duty o
free of duty as the terms of treat.
agreement permit. 1t is becomn!
10 be believed that it IS wisdom o.
the part of congress to pass meas
| ure embodying these principles. l
looks as though Mr.. Blaine would b
endorsed in his wishes TO see some
: thing of the above kind accomplish
ed. In the present overcrowded MAJ
kets of this country ANYTHING thf
promises an outlet for our goods WI

The Maine Election.

Nothing was ever seen in Maine in
an off year that could compare with
the magnificent result that crowned
the efforts of the republicans Sept. 8.
The entire republican ticket in Maine
governor, four representatives to
congress and both branches OF the
state legislature-solidly republican,
Speaker Reed has attained the big
gest plurality that he ever got. 1t is
almost twice the plurality he obtain
ed at the last presidential election.
His most enthusiastic friends did not
dream of such triumph as this, and
Mr.. Reed, when he modestly set his
majority at 900, had no idea that It
would reach nearly five times that tlg-
ures, but his majority will reach A.
700, and possibly more. Portland,
Reeds native city, gave the speaker
a plurality of over 1900, and the
country towns came grandly to the
front in his support.

The State Fair.

The Fair held on the new grounds at
White River Junction was considerably
DAMAGED by the rains of Tuesday, and
Wednesday; Thursday, however, being
nleasant. The exhibition grounds are
situated west of the village on high
nlateau which affords fine and pleasant
situation for the large enclosed park.
Extensive buildings have been erected
and a mile track wide enough to trot SIX
or more abreast, is built. The track is
unlike any in the state, being kite shaped
and the Judges stand is at the tail end OF
! the kite and the start and finish for a
! third of mile or more are straight.
While this plan makes an excellent trot-
ting course, it will not be popular with
those who care to watch the movements
of the horses, as the relative positions
cannot well be seen while offor returning
on long, straight lines.
The show in all departments was yer.
large A great amount of all kinds
stock. and large rooms filed with fruit
vegetables, butter, sugar, farm imple
ments, carriages etc, made the exhibition
interesting and useful. The manager
will have occasion to be proud of thel
new grounds and the success OF thel
first fair. We will try and give furthe
account with something of the premium
list next week.

The Present School Law.

Thdkchool law of 1888, which was
the result of much investigation and
deliberation previous to and at the
time of its passage, has been IN oper-
alton considerably less than two years.
In fact, it is only just in general op-
Grafton. All the changes that the
law made-and they were much less
than some suppose-have now been
effected. The supervisors, on whom
the general work of the supervision |
of the schools is placed, have been |
at their task little more than a
wear: the change of school books has
been effected by the county boards;
teachers have been examined and ap-
proved by the tests provided by the
state superintendent meetings have
been held for consultation and in
struction and the real work and bus
mess of the schools under the new
law is only just fairly begun.
AS we hear now and then some
complaint against the law, and some
threatenings to repeal 1t, we think it
we'll for the people to consider the
subject carefully at this time. 1t may
he Dossible that the legislature will
be unfriendly to the law, land that some
clamor not just may make an unfair
|
attack upon it.
4 The objections against the law, so
far as we hear, are chiefly against
2 the efficiency of the state superintend-
J, ent. against some few of the super
d yisors, and the statement that teach
y ers' wages and other expenses have
increased under it.

Since the nomination of Judge

ally discussed through-o the state,

edge of his profession. A man Oh
keen perception, quick comprehen-

is n GREAT reader and a natural schol-
ar. His law library is probably the
most valuable in volume, ana IN the
