If there is to be efficient work done
by the PopOcratic organization in this
state between now and the Septem-
Der election it is very evident that it
has not succeeded up to date in doing
much along that line. Indeed all that
has been done, save in the way of dis
tributing free silver literature, has in
jured rather than helped the organi-
cation. The condition the party is in
was at least limited at. by the fact that
when the time limit for filing nomina-
tons with the secretary of State had
expired quite number of Democratic
nominations had not been officially
announced. No nominations We're
made in the following instances: A
Democratic judge Of probate in An
droscoggin county. one Democratic rep
resentative in the Blaine district,
Aroostook county; three Democratic
representatives in Westbrook. Deering
and Freeport. Cumberland county; a
Democratic county attorney in Frank
lin county; one Democratic representa-
tive in the Bucksport district of Han
cock county; a Democratic county at
torney in Lincoln county and three
representatives in the Boothbay Har-
Dor. Boothbay and Bristol districts; a
Democratic rcprese ntative in the Pas
sadumkeag district of Penobscot
county: a Democratic register of pro-
bate and a representative in the Mon
son district of PiScataquis county; a
Democratic clerk of courts, sheriff
and county commissioner and repre-
sentative in the East Machias. Har-
rington and Eastport districts of
Washington county: Democratic
county treasurer in York county. Pop
ulist and Prohibitory candidates are
not nominated in many places. Every
Republican nomination is in for every
office from Governor down to the
smallest county officer, with the single
exception of a representative for the
luhec district in Washington county.
II all the nominations possible were
made there would be 1l64 names on the
ballot, and there will be this year
about 1000. The only nomination made
by nomination papers. excepting in the
representative fight in Bangor is for a
city reform sheriff for York county.
1t was near the Witching hour of
midnight. Saturday, when messengers
brought from Bangor the papers sig
nifying that the requisite number of
voters had signed for the nomination
OF Messrs. Parllhurst Beal and Porter.
To nave their names placed on the
Australian ballot as candidates for
representatives from Bangor This
ensures that their names will be on
the ballot whatever may be the de-
clsion of the court as to which of the
TWO contesting sets of nominees shall
go on the ballot under the head of
Republican.

alike being "mesmerized" into con-

The Blaine correspondent of an ex-
change condenses a good deal of truth
in. the following: The pension re
ports from the bureau at Washington
say that the list of pensioners is he
ing rapidly decreased. We have ne
doubt but that report is true. Death
and Hoke Smith have been getting i'll
their CHASTITY work and what other re-
suit could be expected. Wilson Web
Der had his claim allowed recently and
after paying his attorney at Washing
ton he was 20c. out of pocket, besides
all the expense ana trouble he had been
to. hut his name counts one on the
number Of pensions allowed. The old
soldiers have a rod in pickle for the
Democratic party ana but few of them
will have the wool pulled over their
eyes by the cry of free silver" He
might have added that pensioners are
not SO shortsighted as to vote To- have
their pensions paid in 50-cent dollars.

Washington county is hotter than any
political disputation that has occurred

Star Herald: There is no truth in
the report that the free silver craze is
gaining foothold in Aroostook The
people of ArooStook are not in favor of
a platform of Reputation. All they ask
is sound money and such a re-adjust-
ment of tariff duties along the lines of
Republican protection as will prevent
their industries from being submerged
and drowned out by the competition of
cheaper labor and cheaper products of
Canada. Aroostook should be. if it
consults its true interests the banner
Republican county of Maine this year.
We believe it is intelligent enough to
perceive its true interest, and besides
that loyal to right and principle.

sell Aroostook farmers seed oats at

 Out near ihe yell"w-ho.omed Little Colorado river, where the waters chnrn and murmu1 mer ncingly just befo:e they leap ID ireuzeied fury down over the jagee! abyss of the Grand Falls. Navajo Indian lay sick of II lever.
 The magic of the Medicine Man was of no avail. Around the campfire were gathered tho red brothers of the sick man. Suddenly they broke into weird incantations 10 invoke the inter position of t.e Great SpiIit. The sick mans condition did not improve, so Charley Mclean, of Flagstaf, who has spent many years among the Nsvsjos, and who was the only white man rres- ent upon this occasion, was appealed to. Now Charley is something of wild and woody vocslis, himself, so m order 10 save l fe he broke into the mos, plain,iy- melody imaginable. The night biId's tuneful throat WAS instantly hushed. The Indians be- came swed and silent, but the sick man tossed uneasily upon his blanket and groaned the agony of tortured soul.
 Charley tried everything in his ex- tensive repertoire-irom danciug hornpipe to tie sof, and sweet flowing melody Of mothers lullaby. Finally he tackled After the Ball"
 There was gasp from the direc- tion of the sick man, feeble groan, and couvuls;ve twi.ching of the frame that attracted the attention of the strange circle.
