Charles 5. Burnand and several other M

commenting on Sherman's greatness as .
soldier and a citizen and the loss the nation
sustains In his death. The conversation
took reminiscent turn, and Gen. Patterson
remarked that Gen. Sherman for many years

"OfteD," said the General "For number

NOTHING TO DO WITH IT.

The Bangor Wing and Courier, which
stands almost alone among the leading pa
pers in Maine In Opposing the Australian
system, appears to think that the fact that
Massachusetts was carried by the Democrats

that there was connection between the two

ENFORCEMENT THE ONLY AMENDMENT

Neal Dow comes before the Maine Legis-
lature with twelve iron clad amendments to

sary is enforcement.

[Biddeford Journal
The Democratic lhowlers continue to an
nounce with "ghoulish sglee" that Speaker
Reed will leave his high Office without the
unanimous vote of thanks usually passed by
the House. We cannot learn that Mr.. Reed
allows this insulting intent on the part of
Democratic opponents to interfere with his
appetite, digestion or sleep, but of this we
are certain, that the man who has done so
much for his country and his Epalty can Iwell
afford to dispense with such perfunctory
compliment. About the only interest the
country at large can take In this matter is
confined to specializing whether the Demo-
Gratis will embrace their last opportunity of
the present Congress to make asses of them
selves, by carrying out their much heralded
and altogether ridiculous threat.
A PRACTICAL TEMPERANCE LECTURE.

The other day there arrived in a small
Maine village wealthy capitalist who was
In search OF young man that could 90 ahead
with one OF many branches of business he
had in hand. He wanted man of quick
perception, good habits and with some exec.
utive ability. He wanted a man capable of
earning good salary and one that would
grow to be indispensable to the house. he
said he wanted an eastern young man be-
cause his tendencies were better than young
men who are lreared in the great cities Or
even in the country places south and west.
After careful search he found young man
of good address, born mechanic, good
business man and of good family but alas
there the good ended. He was addicted to
drink and try as he could once and a while
he had TO 90 on spree. When Ethis failing
was ascertained all negotiations were
dropped Had it not been for that one curse
upon his life to day he would have been the

provides that the law shall be COM

expressed the opinion that it would be better
to defeat the bill altogether than to under

The Democrats have been behaving fairly
well in the House for the past two or three
days. They have given up leaving the
House In body. and though they do good
deal of protesting they seem inclined to al
low legislation to proceed without any seri-
Gus distractions. Probably good deal Of
this Improvement is due to the appearance
OF Republican quorum, but some of it is
attributable te fear of an extra session.
something that the leaders of the party are
anxious to avoid. Within day or two the
House has been able to accomplish a good
deal. Ii has passed the bill 10 increase the
compensation of the judges of the district
courts, 1t has passed the direc tax bill and it
has put the shipping bill 10 position that
ensures vote upon 1t. 1t has also sent the
bill to relieve the Supreme Court to confer

all the important measures before the House
VIII receive action before adjournment.
The question of re-districting Massachu-
sets at this session of the legislature is ex-
citing considerable discussion in that State.
The best opinion seems to be that the pres
ent legislature ought to take hold of it and
make fair apportionment leaving to the
Democratic Governor the responsibility of
vetoing such an apportionment and thereby
postponing action to neyt year. In the opin.
lon Of the Worcester Spy, "thc most impoli.
tic course which the Republicans in the leg
isiature could take with regard to re-district.
ing the State would be to postpone it until
next year In the hope of having a freer hand
and greater opportunity for partisan adj
vantage" The Spy thinks that such a
course would probably have the effect to put
the Republicans in the next legislature in a
position where they would have less control
than they have now. Furthermore, il an
attempt should be made to district the State
In way to secure partisan advantage, 1t is
very doubtful if it would succeed, in the
present condition of political parties in the
State and the uncertainties surrounding
them. The party that resorts to tricks in
politics sometimes derives temporary advan-
tage. but in the long run the balance is sure
to be against it, especially in a State

The bitterness of the campaign that is now
raging In the Dominion far exceeds anything
In that line that we are accustomed to wit
ness in the United States. The Liberals are
characterized by their Tory antagonists as
"cowardly traitors" ''base conspirators,"
Yankee allies" "falsifers," "wretches,"
rebels" "bribers" and outlaws" ready to
tear down the Queens throne and fit to be
arrested. if not hanged. SirJohn Macdonald
has charged publicly on the stump that Sir
Richard Cartwright sneaked into Washing
ton and had secret conferences with mem
bers OF the American Congress with a
view of selling out his country to the United
States. If the Liberals are as bad as the
Tories declare they would seem to be liable
to arrest and punishment for treason.

DRUGGED.
A Unknown Nan Takes ChlOral
and Has q Close Call.

A man giving his name as Henry
Davis alighted from passenger train
No. 4, of the Missouri Pacific, from
the west last night and stopped at the
depot. He soon fell asleep. Depot
Master Grant noticed his drowsiness
and started him up ard down the
platform to walk of his stupor. After
becoming fully awakened, be
talked freely and said he was
from Warrensburg. He then left the
depot and nothing was seen Of him
until this morning when he went into
Bengley's saloon on Ohio street and
complained Of being sick, and asked
for a drug store. He was referred to
Mertz & Hale's across the alley, and
there procured q drug, supposed
to be morphine, and returned
to the saloon where he pro-
duced a vial and swallowed its
centents.
After he had taken the medicine
he said that be was a druggist and
had a certain drug prepared which
he was compelled to take on account
of his health.
The next tina. was seen Of him was
in the post Office where he fell
lifeless to the floor. An
ambulance was called aud
he was taken to the cslaboose. DR..
Wilson Carr was called and pronoun
ced the case as of morphine. He wa,
walked up and down the side walk
all the forenoon. When partially
awakened he told q BAzoo reporter
that he had taken choral, and gave
various names. He carries good let
tiers of recommendation but from his
appearance, the letters would not
hold good.

Davis was sleeping. 1t is supposed
by some, to have been a case OF in

THE TROUBLE
Which Now Exists in the Family
of Mr.. and Mrs. Robert
Reese of this City.

Last Tuesday r. j. Reese, the
mail contractor, came into the BAzoo
Office and inserted the following no.
tice.
TO WHOM 1T NAY CONCERN.
Notice is hereby given that r. J. Reese
and Kate D. Reese have this day separated
rs husband and wife and that r J. Reese
will not from this date be held for any
debts that said hate D. Reese may con-
tract. X. ]. REESE
The notice attracted considerable
attention and yesterday the BAzoo
learned that Mrs. Reese, on the
strength of the above and a long ser.
les of alleged abuses on the part Of
her husband had gone
to Attorney Hastisn and had him
to write out an application
for divorce on the ground of unfaith.
fulness on the part Of the husband.
The BAzoo wrote the matter up, with
much additional information concern
ing it, but out of consideration for
Mrs. Reese and the relatives of Mr..
Reese, who are most estimable and
worthy people, it is deemed best not
to publieh it. After Reese learned Of
the application for divorce which his
wife had made, he threatened to in
jure her reputation if she did not
withdraw it or at least
bring the suit on other grounds, and
after a great deal of talk over the
the matter, not because che feared
her husbands threats, but because che
deemed it best to have no more
trouble than was necessary, Mrs.
Reese agreed to bring her suit for di.
vorce on account Of desertion and
this morning, with the understand
ing that she would pay her husband
the cum of $3.50 for furniture which
he had purchased for their family
residence and that be would support
and educate her three older children.
also that he would permit the divorce
to 60 BY default-the application was
made out and filed.
Mrs. Reese, who is q most estimable
lady and one who has by her indus
try and discretion won the respect Of
everybody has much sympathy for the
unfortunate condition of her domestic
affairs, while the contrary may be
very truly said of her husband.
