prominent name we have heard sug-
gested is that of n. S. Rogers of New
| por5 Center. Mr.. Rogers is man of
clean character, good, sound sense
and considerably experienced in the
things of law, having been trial JUS
tice several years. He is endorsed by
all who know his worth and ability.
He is man who lost a leg in the war
of the rebellion and is deserving of
any honor that can be bestowed upon
him, fitness for the place being con-
sidered. There seems to be no e fort
anywhere to force candidates to the
front, and it looks now as though
competent and desirable set OF men
might be placed in nomination. It
viii be seen by the call that an invita-
ton has been sent to Senator Proctor
and Representative Grout to be pres
ent at the convention. Their presence
would call out great crowd of peo
pie. In case they cannot be here some
other noted men will come in their
stead. There ought to be great
rally Of people at that time.

THE ALMY CASE.

Last week witnessed another hear
ing in the interminable Almy case.
That the public is heartily disguised
with the endless legal bubbles that
have been resorted to, there is abund-
ant evidence. The people of the state
wished Almy to have fair and speedy
trial, and, believing that he would be
convicted, expected that no loophole
would be left for his escape. Almy
had what appeared to be an eminent
ly fair trial, but ever since his behind
the-back sentence the case has been
one of continual raising and arguing
of legal points. In layman's language,
these points may fairly be called "side
issues" The main question of fact
that Of Almy's guilt-was settled with
out contest, and the degree fixed be-
yond reasonable doubt. To the non
place to end the case, but it seems
to have been only the beginning. A
backhanded sentence provedithe gate
way to a succession of hearings and
rehearings. The changing phases Of
the case have been rehearsed in the
newspapers and court rooms until the
public has become weary and impa-
tient. The demand is strong for an
end to the Almy farce. The man is
guilty, and a new trial would be gen
orally looked upon as little short of
an outrage upon the people of the
state. The shortest and surest way
to the end of the case is imperatively
demanded. There is small danger of
Of Almy's escaping justice, but he has
already been too large bill of ex-
pense to the state. The people are
willing to pay for a rope and the cree
tion of scaffold, but for little else.

unparalleled Almy case the better

FREE coinage OF SILVER De
FEA TED

The silver battle in Congress has
been high and hot for many days, but
it is ended for the present by the ac-
tion Of the House whereby the Senate
bill, passed some days previously, was
! defeated. The question was not de-
cided squarely on party lines. AS the
republicans from the o-called silver
states to a considerable number voted
for the bill, while the sound money
democrats of the New England and
the Middle States voted against free
coinage. It was really a contest
on which there was great deal, pc
cuniarly and politically, at stake. We
have heretofore shown how the vote
in the Senate stood: Thirty democrats
and fourteen republicans for the free
coinage, and thirty one republicans
and ten democrats against the bill.
In the House the vote stood 1O7 dem
ocrats and eight republicans for free
silver; "a democrats and 65 republi-
cans against. free coinage. On the de-
cisive vote in the House stood
for free coinage 100 against it, The
vote shows that only one-eighth of
the republicans voted for the meas
ure while thirteen more than half of
the democrats voted for it. The atti-
tude of the two parties on the ques
ton is prettily efectually shown. It
is probable from statements made in
the discussion that many of those
voting were governed more by the
effect of their voting on the pending
presidential election than on their
own convictions. 1t can well be said
that the democratic party is the party
from which all danger may be feared
in the matter of a flood of free coined
and deprecated silver, while the par
ty of sound money is the republican
Without the almost solid vote of the |
in the House the bill |
would have been sent to the president |
before this time.

Democratic Misrepresentation


The lie which the Augusta correspondent
of the Boston Globe sent to that paper
about the official ballot prepared by Secre-
tary Fessenden is rapidly travelling west
ward The New York Post has got
hold of it., ami proceeds to lash the
wicked Republicans in great shape. The
Post seems to regard it ~ particularly
outrageous that the voter should be re-
quired to make his cross at the right
of the ticket instead of at the left, which
it SAYS is the natural place: but as that
is the law it is difficult to see why the Post
should hold Mr.. Manley and other Repub-
licans who it says, opposed the law
responsible for il. AMI lash them in
stead of the Democrats. who supported
the law in II body and never made any
objection to this provision or suggested
any change As TO the story that
the ballot has been printed on very thin
paper, that is simply lie, as the Post will
discover if it ever takes the trouble to read
Secretary Fessendens letter The fact is the
Australian ballot law has, as a,rule, been ac-
cepted in good faith by both parties,
and there is not the slightest trust
worthy evidence that anybody has
sought to turn it to party advantage.
with one exception, that exception being
the Democratic officials of Biddeford. who
refused to accept the advice of both the
Democratic aud Republican chairmen of
the respective State committees that such
men should he appointed ballot clerks as
were recommended by the local organiza-
ton of the parties and insisted on selecting
the Republican ballot clerks without con
sultation with the Republican committee.

The attention of the country has recently
been called to the breaking of the worlds
record OF trotting by means of IA suky pro-
sidcd with bicycle wheels. The ordinary
sulky wheel,, which are usually about ~
inches in diameter, are removed, and these
bicycle wheels. which are about % inches
in diameter. are attached directly under the
sulkv axle: each wheel has fork, one end
Of which i, drilled out and slips over the
axle of the ,ulky; the other end of this
fork l. fastened to the axle on which the
bicycle wheel reyolyes; another fork brace
is fastened to the end of this bicycle wheel
axle and to the shaft of the sulky. BY
this arrangement the wheels revolye directly
under the sulky axles, the tires nearly
touching them, so that the drivers seat re-
mains very nearly the same height from the
ground as it did when the ordinary wheels
were used The wheels used on the sulky
record breaking trot at Chicago Aug. 18th,
were bicycle wheels having ball bearings
and "hosepipe" inflated tires. This sulky
enabled the horse to break previous records,
because the bail bearings reduced to a mini
mum the friction of the wheels and the
rubber tires gave better traction. The
wheels used by this record breaker were
provided with pneumatic tires and ball
bearings made by the Pope Manufacturing
Co. of Boston
