The widespread belief that the Repub-
licans can this year elect almost any man
and upon almost any platform, is liable
to betray the national convention into
unwise, and perhaps disastrous, action.
The Democratic party Is very weak at
present, but it Is not too weak to take
advantage of Republican mistakes. Our
election experiences of the last five or six
years have shown that there is vast
body of voters in this country whose al
legianoe to any party is not strong, and
who are ready to shift from one party to
the other on slight provocation. A bad
candidate would be likely to drive off
these men, and SO would an equivocating
or ambiguous utterance on the great
questions of the day. Especially to be
avoided, is any coddling of the silver
men, either by selecting candidate at
their dictation or throwing sops to them
through the platform. Any such perfor-
mances as either of these will alarm tho
sound money vote of the country, and en-
able the Democratic party which meets in
national convention later, to attract them
tn this side. An extreme deliverance on
the tariff is likely to be dangerous also,
for while the great mass of the Republi-
cans are in favor of protection to a rea-
sonable degree they have no affection for
the extreme kind that tends to out off
all healthful competition and create
monopolies for great concerns.

The Argus discovered yesterday a
Bird Mayor of Portland. Lest we may
not be able to do justice to it we quote
The Argues description in these words:
Independents of Mr.. Birds general
qualifications for Mayor, there is one in
particular which, in the present demor-
allied condition Of the city, it would be
folly for the friends of good order to
overlook. When district attorney, it was
his duty as prosecuting officer of the
United States to ferret out and bring be-
fore the bar Of justice, all engaged in the
unlawful traffic of intoxicants. This
speciality constituted a very important
department of his service and engaged
large portion of his time. How well and
how efficiently he discharged his duty,
and with what skill diligence and success
he acquitted himself, one has only to re-
fer to the record of the Upitsd States
courts and to oontem poraneous press re-
ports to abundantly satisfy himself and
the public. The business Of detecting
and successfully prosecuting offenders
OF the particular class referred to, is q
speciality demanding skill and experience
supplemented by fidelity to duty and
loyalty to law and the public require
ments.
Probably MIR. Bird will be as much
surprised as anybody to learn that his
chief business while district attorney
consisted in, ferreting out and bringing
to Justice all engaged in the unlawful
traffic of intoxicants.' Doubtless he
prosecuted some liquor sellers, not for
selling liquors, however, but for failing
to pay the special tax which the govern
ment imposes. But even these culprits.
were ferreted out by somebody else. The
Argus apparently thinks that it has a
class of readers innocent and stupid
enough to be deluded into the belief that
it is the Maine prohibitory law that Mr..
Bird was enforcing, when district at
torney, and as 1t appends an appeal to
the Civic League to it's statement which
We have quoted, it evidently thinks the
members of the League are among them.
1t is pretty low view to take Of their
intelligence.

MatchIess oratory.

Texas Herald: "A splendid au-

Hubbard at the French opera house

his auditors spell-bound by his
matchless oratory, his highly de-
scriptive powers and occasionally
side-splitting anecdotes. A more
entertaining and edifying lecture one
rarely hears than was that OF ex-
minister plenipotentiary and envoy
extraordinary to Japan"
