NO CAUSE FOR ALARM

A good many democrats in various
sections Of the country have fallen into
a great panic over what their magma
tions have pictured to them as the fate
of their party. They prophesy all man
ner of disasters and some in great alarm
even foretell the practical dissolution
Of that great political organization. All
these calamities they predict because Of
the present hard times, which they
foolishly believe a majority of the peo-
pie will attribute to democratic aoces-
sion to power. These slarmists should
time. Give the democratic party a
chance. Do not add to its perplexities
by uncalled for predictions of disaster
and failure. Help the party in its
efforts to extricate the country from
the clouds OF evils that hover over it.
Consider the heritage Of partisan laws
left to their SUCCESSORS by the repub-
~licans; laws that have brought about
the present lamentable condition Of
affairs; laws that have fostered especial
interest which IN turn furnished cor
ruption money for republican cam
paigns, and effected the d]ebauchery OF
the ballot; laws that demonetized silver
in 1878 and made it a commodity in
1890; laws that put federal elections in
the hands of United States policemen;
laws that have had for their chief aim
n object the SUCCESS of the republican
party in the next election.
These are some Of the difficulties. the
product OF thirty years Of republican
supremacy, which now bear upon the
democratic party. The party has been
in power scarcely half O year, and yet
because it has not in that short time
overcome the evils wrought by the re-,
publicans in a third of a century dema,
Rogues are abroad loudly asserting and
proclaiming the inability of the demo,
Gratis to successfully manage the affairs
of the country. More unreasonabl
yet, they are charging them with the
responsibility for the present state OF
affairs, although their incessant efforts
since March 4 have been exerted t.
bring about the change. And, strange
to say, some weak-kneed democrats
have been deceived thereby.
The democratic party may be trusted
Long before the end of the present adj
ministration the worst of the evils in

Governor Cleaves's message to the leg
islature yesterday on the finances was
timely, and no doubt will have the eff
feet of causing the Legislature to more
carefully scrutinize for the remainder of
the session bills carrying with them APP
preparations of money. Perhaps to it's
influence is to be attributed the hesita-
ton of the Senate to pass the resolve in
favor of the hospital at Bangor. But it
was not Gov. Cleaves's intention to cut
OF the appropriation of money for any
thing that the state actually needs. If
this hospital is needed Gov Cleaves'c re-
marks do not apply to it. If, however,
it is not needed at present, if the insane
can be properly cared Tor with the pres
ent accommodations or with an extern
sion of them at moderate cost then it
does apply. The Senate has not actu-
ally voted down the hospital scheme.
It's action is rather indicative of desire
to get more light on the subject before
taking decisive step. In view of the
importance of the matter and the condi-
ton of the finances which Gov. Cleaves' S
message discloses, this desire is both
reasonable and praiseworthy.

who pay nothing but poll tax, the very
class which is being S ecially appealed to
to support Mr.. Ingraham because OF his
attitude in this water business.
The truth is that Mayor Ingraham
seized upon the $4,000 contract with city
merely to arouse and turn to his own
political advantage the prejudice which
exists among the people against the
water company. Whether the contract
was legal and binding he did not care.
Whether its abrogation would have a
favorable or unfavorable effect upon the
rates to individual takers he did not take
the trouble to consider. 1t could be used
to arouse prejudice and furnish some
political capital. That was enough for

Mayor Ingraham and the Argus are
still harping on what they call the water
question, and appealing to the people of
Portland to take this question into con-
sideration in determining how they shall
vote next Monday.
Now Mayor fngraham and the Eastern
Argus both know perfectly well that
there is no question now at issue between
the city of Portland and the Water Com
pany, and not even remote possibility
Of any Question arising which can be
affected in the slightest degree by any
vote that can be thrown on Monday. So
far as it affects the Portland Water c M
pany it makes not the slightest difference

be paid by the individual water takers
many of whom pay mo taxes except a
poll tax which is not affected by the
city's tax rate.
TO illustrate this let us suppose that
the water company now receive from in
dividual water takers in this city $780,
600 annually and $4,000 from the city in its
corporate capacity. Suppose now that
the commission finds that $4,000 would
be reasonable return to the company !,
taking into account the cost of the works.
Then if the $4,000 paid by the city be
allowed to remain the lamount collected
of individual takers could be reduced in
the aggregate $4,000. If on the con-
trary the payment of the $4,000 by the
city is stopped then the amount
of aggregate reduction to individual
water takers can be but $4,000.
In the first case the reduction
to the individual water taker would
be "a per cent and the water taker who
is now paying 500 annually would have
to pay but $15.20. In the second case
the reduction would be but 20 per cent.
and the individual water taker now pay
ing 500 will have to pay $1e. 1t will be
seen therefore that the only result OF
Mayor Ingrahrm's raid on the $4,000 If it
succeeds will be to diminish the amount
