Must Unite.
philadelphia Times.)

Reputation and anarchy have flung
their black flag into the faces of the
American people. and the issue must be
all parties for the preservation OF the
honor and safetysof the republic.
There is now one high duty imposed
upon every faithful citizen, regardless OF
his party affiliations. and that is to repu-
diate the repudiators of the Chicago con-
vention. The platform should be Stunned
by patriotic voters as they would shun
pestilence. and the candidates must be
opposed because they represent the pur-
poses of revolutionists.
Until this issue shall be settled all other
questions of national policy sink into ut
ter insignificance. and all good citizens
must unite to repudate by an overwhelm-
ing vote the Chicago repudiators.

Looking to Maine.
(Boston Journal.)

IBOSIOIl ,JUUTIdI,J
So Maine is to be made one of the
great backgrounds of the campaign.
That is the Democratic purpose. The
New York World hears that it is pro-
posed to fill Maine with free silver
orators and free silver literature. and
MIR. Arthur Sewall of Bath Democratic
candidate for Vice President. makes
this interesting statement:
If we can undo the work in Maine
Daily Kennebec journal., 1896-07-15

We favor restoring the early Amcri-
can policy of discriminating duties for
the upbuilding of our merchant marine
and the protection of our shipping in
the foreign carrying trade" etc This
clause is found in the Republican ma
tional platform. There is nothing of
the kind, nor any suggestion of aid to
our shipping interests in the Demo-
cratic national platform, which was
framed by the politicians of a section
of the country and of class hostile to
the American merchant marine And
yet upon the latter platform Mr..
Sewall stands. AS in the past he now
stands politically for what he objects
to when Republicans come into power.
1T is possible that he thinks it matters
little what he advocates in a political
way theresis so little likelihood. that it
will so into effect but II the impossible
should happen the pleasure sof being
vice-President would be worth all it
might cost him personally.

Every Democrat who wants to make
sure that the revolutionary programme

out, will not dare to throw away hls

Daily Kennebec journal., 1896-07-15

Hon. Arthur ScWall, president of the
Bath National bank, has been nom
mated vice President on a platform,
one plank of which reads as follows:
I'VE therefore denouncc the issuance
of notes intended to circulate as money
by national banks as in dcroSation of
the constitution" The logical inference
is that Mr.. Sewall is opposed to the
best banking system ever had in this
country. This platform upon which
Mr.. ScWall stands also declares for
free silver and against a third term
for any President. 1t was only few
short months since that Mr.. Sewall
was openly advocating free silver and
third term for President Cleveland.

the Argus thinks should be counter

it could turn off the aurora borealis.

Must Rally About Mckinley.
On. Y. Stats Zeitung.)

Circumstances have made William
Mckinley the man, around whom all
must rally who desire to defeat deter
minedly the candidate of the pseudo
Democracy. William j. Bryan. who
stands for fiat money under the guise
of bimetallism, for notification of law

munism and lawlessness
philadelphia Record.)
The platform adopted by the Chicago
convention is such a declaration of pur
poses and principles as no consistent
can conscientously approve. No man fit
10 tie president or vice president of the
United States could in honor stand upon
II. and II is therefore quite unnecessary to
consider what manner of persons have
been presented for the suffrageS of the
people. Because the Record has been a
firm supporter of Democratic principles.
it repudiates. condemns. and spits upon
this communistic populistic deliverance.
The worst misfortune that could now be-
fall the Democratic party would be the
election of a President and Congress
pledged to carry into effect the aims of
this revolutionary, Socialstic scheme of
political action.
From this time until the day of cleo
ton it will be the business of Democrats
to study how they may best act to de-
feat 1t, and at the same time conserve
the principles of true Democracy.
Whether this may best be done by the
nomination of an Independent Democratic
ticket, by voting for Mckinley, or by taxi
ing some other course of action. is a mat
ter for immediate consideration and de-
cision.

A DRY DAY IN TOWN.
Thirsty Crowds Went Out to the Re
sorts. Though.

Yesterday was a very dry day in the
city. and a very successful one at Thun-
derbolt The barrooms were generally
closed.
Many people complained that they could
not find the means Of satisfying their
thirst. The unwonted dryness was at
tributed to the recent announcements by
Recorder Wilson that hereafter both fine
and Imprisonment would be imposed for
Sunday liquor selling and that barkeep-
ers would be given the same treatment
as proprietors.
The saloon keepers have evidently TAX
en- the recorder at his word. One WE'LL
known saloon keeper who has kept open
good many Sundays this year, Informed
his patrons who came expecting TO fnd
his place open as usual, that he had been
caught once and fined, and as he had no
desire to go 10 Jail he did not propose to
be caught again.
It may have been the hot weather, and
II may have been the closed saloons,
ana II was probably a little of both, that
sent such large crowds TO Thunderbolt
IN the afternoon. The street railways had
all they could do to handle the crowds,
and the number of cars, both on the in
side and outside lines were doubled and
tripled in order TO accommodate the
crowds. Altogether several thousand peo-
pie visited the resort in the afternoon
IlNoil park was the headquarters for the
crowd on account of the entertainment
IN progress there. a main feature OF which
was the exhibition OF marine diving ana
life saving apparatus by Can't. and Nine
Sorcho Though very large. the crow0
was very orderly. Many ladies' and chill
dren were among the visitors

bishop Nelson's Address to the sun
day School.
Bishop Nelson was present at the st.
Michaers Mission Sunday school celebra-
ton yesterday afternoon. The mission
church, at Henry and Habersham streets,
was crowded to the doors, the congrega-
ton being largely made up from members
of Christ church.
Bishop Nelson delivered the address,
which he suited to the comprehension of
his youthful hearers. At it's close the
bishop complimented the superintendent
officers and teachers of the Sunday school
on the fine showing they had made.
The presentation of the banners by the
inherent classes was very pretty GER
emony, and the Easter offering Melted a
good sum, which will be applied for the
dual purpose of providing a library and
charging the chapel
The Sunday school is in a fiourishing
condition, the present attendance being 1870
children and twenty teachers. The off,
GERS of the school are: Joseph ]. White
head, superintendent; John w. Howard
secretary; Miss Nj. H. Maecaw, treasurer;
and the present condition of the school
is due to their earnest efforts.
Bishop Nelson confirmed a class of
nine children. Several Easter carols were
sung by the congregation during the cere-
moiy at which the Rev. Robb White as
sisted.

Yesterday was busy day with the
cyclists, and the roads were crowded with
riders All the northern riders, who are
here training, and many local scorchers,
visited the track and put in some good
work
In the afternoon Charlie Murphy, the
Brooklyn boy, went a quarter mile unpaced
with a flying start against time, in % rs
seconds
Murphy had just finished riding five
miles, the last mile of which he went in
2:25. AS he was coming around the last
lap of the fifth mile his trainer, Billy
Young called to him to 90 a quarter. Muir
ply bent to work and making circuit of
the track for good start, he crossed THE
tape and rode one of the prettiest quarter
mile dashes ever seen on the track
Murphy's time is considered remarkable
when 1t is taken into consideration that he
has been training but few days and that
there was also very high wind.
The time equals the track record, which
was made in the spring of "a by Murphy,
after he had been in training about three
weeks. Kid" Wheeler did five miles also,
but did not attempt any records.
