ROUGH ON SEWALL.
Inc Eastern Argus ScornfuIIy Repu-
dates His Recent Silver Talk.
Has Been Long Time Since He Voiced Maine
Democrats Sentiments.

New York, June THE editor of the
Eastern Argus of Portland, Me-, has sent
the following statement to the Mail and
Express:
Portland, Me-, June Z.
Arthur Sewall, Democratic national
committeeman from Maine, does not rep
resent the sentiment of the Democracy of
this State in his approval of the action of
the Illinois free silver convention.
"There arc silver Democrats in Maine,
and they are not despicable in point of
numbers, but the great majority of the
party stands by the Cleveland administra-
ton on this question, and holds that free
silver coinage is unwise unless under
taken by international agreement Most
of the silver men in Maine belong to the
Populist party though some are to be
found in both Democratic and Republican
ranks
Mr.. Sewall'S utterances have very lit
tie significance to anybody but himself,
and it has been a long time since he
voiced the sentiments of tho Maine Demo
crazy He is not in sympathy with them
on the tariff question or the currency
question or the free ship question. Not
Democratic paper in Maine upholds the
silver heresy. (Signed)

A $40 Assessment Levied.

At a well-attended meeting of the
executive committee of the S. w.
Wis. /. A., last Saturday, it was or
dered that an assessment of $40 on
each member be levied, and that the
amount realized therefrom be APP
piled as fast as received to payment
of indebtness. It is hoped that $1,000
will be promptly raised on this assess
ment,which will pay off nearly halt
of the debts. In that case no diff
Guilty in providing for the remainder
is apprehended.
incidentally, in the discussion Of
the situation, and suggestions Of
sources from which means might be
obtained, it was developed that a
large percentage ofthe business men
of this city who derive considerable
benefit from the fairs, and would be
among the principal losers if fairs
We're discontinued, contribute 9TH
ing, or but an insignificant trifle to
the support Of the association. Con-
spicuous in this list of delinquents
are some of the hotels, most of the
saloons, livery stables, bakeries, etc.
Ii the fair is direct benefit to any
classes of business it is to those mem
toned. As a purely business invest
ment each one of these could profit
ably contribute $40 to $25 annually
for the maintenance of the associa-
tion, rather than have fairs dis
continued. If they would all do so
the perpetuity, prosperity and i'm
provement Of the association would
he positively assured, despite unfa-
vorable weather and other untoward
circumstances.
Inaddition to these there are others
of our citizens who do not support
the association in proportion to the
advantages they derive from the fairs.
The annual expenditures Of the
association average about 100000.
Substantially all ol this sum is dis
tributed among the people Of this
city and vicinity, and probably as
much more flows through our local
trade channels from those who attend
the fairs. 70 continue this is cer-
tainly highly desirable, and to that
end everyone interested in the pros
perity of the place should give aid to
the full limit of his ability. II one
half hang back, depending upon the
other half to maintain the fairs
of which MI share the benefits, there
is risk that time may come when
the enterprising half may grow
weary of we'll doing. Besides being
unwise in jeopardizing their own
interests, delinquents are unjust to
their neighbors.
