The great majority of the men who were
affected by the illegality of the naturaliza-
tion papers issued by the municipal court of
Biddeford came to this country before they
were twenty. one. 1t is not necessary there
fore for them to file a preliminary DECLARE
tion of intention. All that they need to do
is to appear in court, establish the fact that
they came here before they were eighteen
years of age and have remained here
since, prove their good moral character and
swear allegiance to the Constitution of the
United States. This is process that re-
quires on the average an expenditure of
about ten minutes of time. A small expen-
diture of money is needed also, but the Bid
deford Democratic ring furnishes that. If
these aliens had accepted the decision of the
court when it was given, and they would
have done it had the ring so advised them
the great majority of them might have been
naturalized by this time by a competent
court.

There is reason to believe that the Hon. A.
p. German, chairman of the Democratic
national committee, has located himself at
some point near the First Maine district In
order to be of service to the Democracy on
election day. lGorman's political training was
received in Baltimore. where politics are
probably more corrupt than in any city
in the land. When he appears in political
campaign it is safe to conclude that doodle"
will appear also, and that it will be the
chief factor in the work. Republicans
should keep close watch between now and
election day. If German and doodle" are
in the vicinity usually disconsolate Demo-
cratic countenances will begin to betray
hopeful and expectant look Democrats
scent Doodle afar off and revive nightly
under its influence.

Speaker Reeds reelection to the House
next. week is confidently predicteI in our
special dispatches from Portland. The
Democrats are making strenuous efforts to
secure his defeat, but their canvass of roor-
backs and Misrepresentation already shows
unerring signs Of collapse. Their desperate
attempts to connect him with fictitious navy
scandals and naturalization illegalities have
only recoiled against themselves. His con-
stltuents are conversant with the facts and
are not to be deceived by malignant defama-
lion. They know the man and are proud of
one reputation which he has made in national
councils councils. The defeat of the Speaker would
iin in Cnum most serious loss of working power

As we have several times pointed out reci-
procity with Brazil, or indeed with all the
South American countries, will not give us
free sugar. for the very simple reason that
neither 1t nor they produce sugar enough to
supply more than very small part of our
consumption. We have had reciprocity with
the Sandwich Islands for many years, but
the effect of 1t has not been to cheaper sugar
to any appreciable extent to the consumer.
Mr.. Claus Spreckles has been enabled to get
rich out of it, but the people have had to pay
just as much for their sweetening as ever.
The great source of our sugar supply is the
island Of Cuba. With the sugar of Cuba
taxed and the sugar of South America
free. 1t is obvious enough what would
be the result. The price of the Cuba
sugar in this country would fix the
price of the South American sugar. and the
entire advantage of free entry of the latter
sugar would enure to the South American.
1t is possible, of course, that the cultivation
of the cane In Brazil might be so stimulated
by this advantage that In course of time
she might raise enough to supply our needs,
and that then the price would 90 down,
but that time would not soon arrive,
for the people to the south of us are
not very enterprising and make progress
slowly. Te ensure free sugar to the people
of the country Immediately or within
reasonable time reciprocity with Spain is
needed. unless of course the tariff is entirely
removed from sugar. But when we seek reci-
procity with Spain, Spain will of course
ask If it is worth her while to abandon
the revenue she now derives from the imports
from this country into the island Of Cuba
for the sake of the free introduction of the
sugar Of that island into our markets. lnas-
much as Cuba now sells US about all the
sugar 1t raises, the Spanish government may
not be able to discover any advantage that
will be likely to accrue either to it or to
Its island from the removal of the duty on
sugar worth paying for. That such trade
would be beneficial to the United States
appears obvious. 1t is not quite so obvious
that 1t would benefit Spain, though there
may be considerations that will more than
offset the large loss Of revenue from it.

The Vaccinations of the Democrats in
this district for the defeat of Speaker Reed,
or for the cutting down of his majority to a
point where the next House, if it happens to
be Democratic, may be able to find pretext
for counting him out, should rouse every
Republican in the district to the necessity
of going to the polls on election day and
casting his ballot for Thomas b. Reed.
Nothing would give the Republicans of the
nation more pain and the Democrats more
joy than the defeat of the representative
from the first district of Maine.

Reasons why it will not yield to medicine
