THE RESULTS OF THE ELECTION.

The indications from the meagre re-
turns received are that the total vote in
the State this year as compared with
1888 will show a falling off of about 49,
600. Precisely to what this is due cannot
be said with certainty, but undoubtedly
the new system of voting had much to
do with it, Many hesitated to try sys-
tenn which they thought was compli-
Gated, lest they make blunders. Chair
man Manley predicted reduction on this
account, and the returns bear out the
correctness of his prophecy.
Undoubtedly another thing which OPP
Grated to reduce the Republican majority
below that of 1888 was the failure on the
part of the Republicans to appreciate the
unusual activity of the Democracy and
their superior organization. As rule
the Democrats are badly led and badly
managed in this State, and so the Repub-
licans have got in the habit of assuming
that there will be no difficulty in over
whelming them, and that no great
amount of exertion is needed. If, there
fore, it is not convenient for Republican
to go to the polls, he is apt to stay away
on the assumption that the Democrats
will be apathetic and will not get out their
vote. The year, however, the Democrats
have manifested altogether more life
than for years, have been better Differed,
and the result has been that they have
got out their vote better than usual.
The Republicans have been to a certain
extent the victims of oYer-confidence.
They have lost the majority which they
might easily have had simply because
many of them have not taken the trouble
to go to the polls. OF course an attempt
will be made to interpret the cutting
down of the Republican majority as an
indication that the Republicans are
growing lukewarm in the support of
their principles, but the true explanation
undoubtedly is that they did not fully
appreciate in season the unusual efforts
the Democrats were making. All the
substantial fruits of victory are with the
Republicans. They have elected their
candidates for governor and congressman
and very large majority of the sena-
tors and representatives in the legisla-
ture. They have also secured most of
the county officers. They might, with a
little more exertion, have secured as
large, or larger majority than in 1888.
There is nothing in the vote to disclose
any wavering on the part of the Republic
cans either as regards national or State
questions. They have simply made the
mistake of thinking it a little easier to
beat the Democracy than it was.
The Portland daily press., 1892-09-14

Rumors are about of movement on
the part of some of the supporters of Mr..
SWEET to get up recount of the votes in
this city. The performance of the
Board of Aldermen yesterday seems to
give some support to this rumor. We
do not want to accuse these gentlemen of
any intention to attempt to change the
result of the election by any crooked
work. But theexperience of the people
of this state with Democratic returning
boards has not been such as to inspire
great confidence in them. Of course
the Board of Aldermen know per-
fectly well that they have no more power
to order recount than they have to
order new election. Nor have they any
right to sit in judgment on defective re-
turns. Their business is to tabulate the
returns and there it begins and stops. II
Mr.. SWEET feels aggrieved let him pre-
sent his case to the governor and council
who have power to make corrections in
certain cases. This community is not in
a frame of mind to put up with any
funny business on the part of any board
of aldermen or any defeated candidate.
The voters of this county have elected
Leander E. Cram sheriff, and that settles

Practical Facts About cholera.

Issued by the State Board of Health of Maine.
Cholera, as it appears in America, is
an exotic disease: that is, it never arises
spontaneously on our soil. When it has
appeared here, it has always been posi-
BILE to trace it back to European ports
and towns where cholera prevailed, and
from there to India, where it always has
it's origin. Whenever it has left its
Asiatic home and oyerrun Europe, it has
invariably, sooner or later, found its way
to our country. In view of the posi-
bility of having to deal with Asiatic
cholera in our own Commonwealth, the
State Board of Health thinks it prudent
to issue this circular.
NATURE OF THE MALADY.
1t is specific disease caused by a
specific organic poison, or disease germ,
derived directly or indirectly from pre-
existing cases of the same disease.
SYMPTOMS.
Cholera almost always begins with a
premonitory diarr9a. Later come vom-
iting, cramps, exhaustion, and collapse.
In some cases the advent OF the disease
is sudden and it's course and termination
rapid; in other cases the disease advance
es no farther than the stage of simple
diarrh@a, cases that are fraught with
grave danger to the public, as their true
character is often overlooked.
HOW IT SPREAD.
Cholera is an infectious disease, but it
is infectious only in certain ways. 1t is
not Catching" as small pox and scarlet
fever are understood to be. In Calcutta
where cholera is always present, hum
dreds of cases have been treated in the
general hospital, and often in the same
rooms with patients sick with other dis
eases, without ever being a source of in
lection to them. Physicians and nurses
who care for the sick are little. if any,
more liable to take the disease than
others. And yet on the other hand, a
single case may poison many other indi-
yiduals, and give rise to a widespread
and fatal explosion of the disease. How
can we account for this paradoxical be-
havior of cholera? In this way: The
cholera poison exists principally in the
discharges from the bowels and in the
yomited matter. If this poison is COM
pletely destroyed as soon as it leaves the
alimentary canal, there is no danger of
the patients being source of infection
to other persons. But if the objections
are thrown. for instance, into the privy
vault, the cholera germs find all the favor
ing conditions for their DEVELOPMENT and

Mr.. E. D. Freeman, who has been the
official head of the Republican party in
this county, has rendered admirable SER
vice to the party throughout what has
been one of the most hardly fought and
intricate campaigns we have ever had in
this county. Nobody, who has had no
experience, can appreciate the perplexi-
ties and difficulties that are encountered
in the management of SO complex an
affair as political campaign, and the
successful accomplishment of that task
by Mr.. Freeman is high tribute to his
Judgment and executive ability.
The Portland daily press., 1892-09-14
SHERIFF GRANTS REELECTION.

One of the most gratifying results of
the contest is the reelection of Sheriff
Cram. 1t ought to be gratifying not
merely to Republicans but to everybody
VINO believes that official honesty is COM
nsn able. The proper and logical way
{. overthrow an unpopular law is to vote
for candidates for the legislature who
are opposed to it. TO attempt to get rid
of il by electing an executive officer who
will not enforce it is not logical nor
honest, and it's success would be de-
moralizing to the community Sheriff
Cram could better afford to be defeated
on the issue which was made against
him than the people could afford to de-
feat him, and it is cause for congratula7
ton that tho people of this county have
not exposed themselves to the oppro-
brium which ought to follow and would
be sure to follow the striking down of
faithful officer because he was faithful.
The Portland daily press., 1892-09-14

The political contest which has just
terminated so gloriously in this county
will long be memorable; and in connec-
ton with it Republicans should not for
get the quiet, efficient work done by
their chairman of the county committee,
Mr.. g. Fred Murch of Westbrook. At
the beginning of the campaign he open
ed headquarters in Portland and from
that time until the voting, he gave the
contest his close and constant attention
and labor.
