Joseph Manley of Maine, says the New
York Advertiser, is at the Fifth Avenue
Hotel. He sees nothing but Republican
victory in the political horoscope. He
said: '.Every Republican in New Eng
land is for Harrison and Reid, and I can
not recall time when this far in adj
vance of Presidential campaign there
was SO much genuine enthusiasm. The
last campaign was nothing compared to
it.
Harrison has made splendid record,
as every fair man must admit, and on
that record he will be elected. The
labor troubles haven't the political signi-
fcance our opponents would have us be-
lieve. In Pennsylvania it is purely a
local matter, and will be forgotten by
the people at large as soon as the CAM
paign begins in earnest.

Incidental Protection.

To the Editor Of the Press:
You say that the ''Argus alleges that
no import duties can be levied by
this country without carrying with them
some incidental protection" Ifit costs
Maine manufacturer s1.0O to lay down
certain article in New York, and it
costs an English manufacturer so cents
to lay down the same article in New York
and the duty is Is percent, where does
incidental protection come in, and who
gets it? MANUFACTURER.

ON THE KITE TRACK.
Good Sport on the Mile Course Down by the
Sea.

The three days midsummer meeting
at the Old Orchard kite track under the
management of the Maine Breeders As
ISOLATION opened yesterday afternoon I'M
der fairly favorable conditions as to
weather. Marked improvements have
been made since the somewhat hasty OPP
ening in July. The grand stand has
been nearly rooted over and many minor
improvements are observable in the out
fit of the track.
The course is in decidedly better con-
dition than at the somewhat hasty first
opening for the July meeting. This was
apparent in the exercise of Harry Nc
Mare, the Pennsylvania horse, who is
said to have done mile in the morning
in about 2.2O, and good timer caught his
last half at 1. 10 or a 2.20 clip. This was
the gossip of the track and apparently
quite reliable.
The Biddeford French Band furnished
music. The judges in the stand were
Messrs. Isaiah Pompilly of Lewiston, A.
G. Smith of Chicago and w. A. Whittier
of Old Orchard.
The races were for the 2.40 and 2.30
class, each for purse of $500.
The 2.40 Race.
The first class called were the 2.40
horses, and of some twenty odd nomina-
tions field of ten horses appeared and
drew positions lookout l, Dolly II. 2,
Addie LIS, Mona Medium 4, Charles Kes-
Ter 5, Dixmont 6, Lizzie L. Z, Farnham 8,
Francis and Scipio 10.
The horses were promptly started by
Mr.. Pompilly and a pretty heat resulted
with few changes OF position, though
Addie L. pressed the leader, Charles
Kesler, hard. The entire field finished
well together, and were awarded posi-
lions as follows: Charles Kesler 1, Adj
die L. 2, Lookout 3, Lizzie L. 4, Dix
mont S, Fanchon 6, Milo I, Mona Medi-
UNI s, Francis 9, Dolly H. 10. Time,
2.331.
In the second heat the horses in the
field got off with little delay, and Charles
Kesler, with the pole, went to the front,
but he had some plucky fighters in Liz
zie L. and Dolly H. The balance of the
field were trotting for all they were
worth for positions. Down the home
stretch the three leaders drew away from
the rear guard and the three finished in
bouquet, with the rest struggling for
positions half dozen lengths behind.
The finish was: Charles Kesler l, Lizzie
L. 2, Dolly H. 8, Francis 4, Mona Medium
5, Dixmont 6, Addie LII, Milo s, Fan
chon 9, Lookout 10. Time, 1884.
The third heat was another good one,
but the plucky Charles Kesler was alto
gether too powerful for his, rivals, and
won the heat and race in three straight
efforts. Francis was second in this heat
and Dolly Fl. third. Time, 2.35.
First money was won by Charles Kes-
Ter, second by Lizzie L., third by Francis
and fourth by Addie L. Summary:

The $50 Race.

In the 2.3O class seven contestants APP
peared and drew positions-Caprice, LIST;
Schoolmarm I'd; Nellie D., Sd; Watson,
4th; Walter D., 9Th; Blacksmith, 9th;
Scipio, 7th.
After long and tedious scoring start
was finally effected. Schoolmarm and
Blacksmith had hot fight for the lead
for the first quarter. Around the long
upper course of the kite the horses com
menced to string out, but three good ones
worked to the front and close contest
resulted on the home stretch. The
driver of Caprice got ahead, but he
swerved so much that he was open to
criticism and reported an explanation on
his own account-that he did it to avoid
soft place in the track. No particularly
soft place being apparent it was evident
that it was done by looking around 1t
was good heat, however, and a good
finish. The positions were Caprice /;
Schoolmarm 2; Walter D. 8; Watson 4;
Blacksmith 5; Scipio 6; Nellie d. Z.
Time 2.27. *
The second hea was an exciting one
and resulted in change in the aspect OF
affairs. Watson, the green New Hamp-
shire horse that appeared for the first
time in public at the July meeting on
this track, let himself out, passed the
leaders and went to the front and re-
manned there, but not without a strug-
| gle, for there was a great finish with
nearly a half dozen close together. The
| horses for the heat were placed: Watson
| 1st, Schoolmarm I'd. Nellie D. Sd, Ca

balance well up. Time, 2.27a.

legislative Candidates.

EDITOR TRIBUNE The Graceville
Transcript, under date of June 4th,
says: "Some discussion has been
going on in relation to the Legislative
ticket in this district for next fall, in
which the drift indicated that Big
Stone must lay down and ask moth
ing because Stevens has a candidate"
The Transcript further says, speak
ing of the Hon. III. G. Lyman, "Now
we contend that Big Stone county has
more such men, some of whom are ex-
cellently qualified who would repre-
sent the district creditably as anyone
from our sister counties, and if Mr..
Lyman or anyone of them should ask
for the Big Stone delegation there is
no doubt about him getting it. We
are unable to see why Big Stone
should not be on an equal footing
with any of our sister counties in this
matter, and we have good reasons to
believe that when the nominating
convention meets Big Stone will have
little to say and that she will spit it
right out in the meeting" The writer
of this article has good reason to be-
lieve that this is not the opinion of
the publisher of the Transcript, but
it is the opinion ofithe editor who lives
in Ortonville and the aforesaid editor
voices the opinion of that select and
venerable organization known as the
Big Stone county ring. Straws show
which way the wind blows, and when
the convention does meet, if Big
Stone county is SO foolish and the
Republican convention try to nomin-
atea Big Stone county man, she will
be left, for she will not develope
strength enough to "speak right out

In illustration of Chloe's shrewdness this
gentleman tells the following story:
':Last winter out near my place the col
ored Methodists had revival, and they
continued it with much vigor for fully six
weeks, or until it got so cold in the wretch
to be abandoned.
among the men who claimed to be
converted at this time was man named
Roberts, whose reputation for laziness and
honesty was far from being enviab1e. AT
the time of his conversion Roberts was in
need Of boots and an overcoat, and to Sc
cure him these necessary articles the col.
ored clergyman took around subscrip.
ton paper among his white friends sub.
scribed dollar, and when Chloe heard OF
it she sighed and shook her head, but said
nothing.
SIN the early spring Roberts, VINO lad
attended meeting regularly all winter,
was arrested for larceny, and the case
against him was SO clear and strong that
he was sent to the penitentiary.

and right that Stevens county should

It is claimed that this is govern

voters of this district will make a
practical application of this trpism

ing all other issues aside this is the
right thing to do. It does not follow
as natural sequence that common
sense should be ignored even in pol
itics, and past experience has taught
the voters, irrespective Of party lines
that it is about time for them to give
the political tricksters and wise poll
ticians a wide berth in the future
Year by year the people are beginning

it in operation you are astonished at
the wonderful ingenuity displayed in
it's invention. The capacity of this
immense brewing plant at the present
time is 100000 barrels of beer yearly,
and this capacity can easily be
doubled whenever necessary. This

raised in Canada or Montana. The
