The Returns From Maine.

To the average republican the re.
ported 40, 900 majority in Maine af.
fords little in the way of consolation.
Should the majority be 10000 as is
claimed, it will only show an in
crease of 1900 over the republican
vote of two years ago There is
nothing phenomenal about this.
The state has always been conceded
republican and no fight was made
on the financial question. It was
the same old tariff jangle that has
ever kept Main solid for protection
The situatiin at this time furnishes
nothing for republicans to crow
about. True, Vermont recently
piled up good republican majority,
the fight in that state being similar
to the one in Maine. But what of
this? Vermont has but four electo-
raj votes and Maine only six, max
ing total of ten. This is more
than Offset by recent silver victor
les. In June, Oregon, which has
an electoral vote of four was carried
alone by populists. Since that time
fusion has been effected between
the populists and democrats for the
November election, Which makes a
sure thing over in Oregon. Later,
Georgia was carried by Bryan dem
ocrats, that state having thirteen
electoral votes. Only few days
ago Arkansas registered herself on
the silver question and piled up a
majority of $4,000 for Bryan democ-
racy, and making sure her eight
electoral votes. Thus wherever
the fight has been made on the f.
nancial issue so far silver has won
and twenty-five electoral votes made
sure for the silver standard bearer.
Now, the republicans are welcome
to every consolation they can find
in today returns from Maine, and
on the whole the situation affords no
cause for republican Growing. The
silver men are completely satisfied
with the outlook and the election in
the Pine Tree state is in no way
disheartcning.

The speaker eulogized the sterling
honesty and integrity of the silver
standard bearer, his remarks along
this line being prompted by init
mate personal acquaintance with
Mr. Bryan in the halls of our ma
tional congress.
Senator Kyle's talk was we'll re-
ceived and carried great weight
with it, inasmuch as he spoke from
personal experience and observation
as a United States senator.

THREE.CORNERED FIGHT.

Portuguese Fistic Encounter ina
Nuuanu Street Saloon.
Among the saloon fights of Sat
urday night was a three-cornered
one between Joe Rupert, Manual
BONG and j. s. Pregano, which
was stopped by Officers Espinda,
Willis and Kalakini by transpOr-
tation of the principles to the po-
lice station. j. NJ. Vivas came
around and bailed the men out.
When they were ranged about the
receiving station counter some
one said that one of the men was
not drunk. Just then the object
of the remark breathed heavily,
and it is said the speaker changed
his mind. At all events the man
had sObered up perceptibly after
his arrest, due no doubt to fright.
Another of the trio was weeping
like a child in distress. \ little
later j. NJ. Vivas, who was stand
ing near the men, claimed in loud
tones that the clerk showed one of
the men, which, in the fitness of
things, was thought to be an un-
Just move. After some little par,
Ieying the men left the police sta

wATERMEN FIGHT.
Sailors from Melrose and Sargent
Fight Out their Differences.

Representatives of the bark
Melrose and the ship G. f. Sar-
gent created quite a little dis
turbanoe on Nuuanu street in the
vicinity of the Empire saloon Sat
urday night. There was evidently
bad blood somewhere, and this
had become agitated beyond boil
ing point by the use of various
kinds of drinks. The Sargent
man sneaked up behind the Mel
rose sailor and hit him over the
head, near the temple, with bot
tie filled with wine. A deep cut
was the result. Recovering from
the blow he chased his antagonist
in and out among the crowd until,
up with him, he hit him
so hard several times that the
Sargent man dropped in a heap.
The arrival Of police officers put
a stop to further trouble. Three
policemen had to carry the Mel
rose man to the police station,
where he was locked up on the
charge of drunkenness. The Sar
gent sailor had his wound dressed
md returned later to his vessel.

other important town in the State
in any of the holly contested fights
through which the party has passed
in recent years. On the contrary,
we have heard that it was with the
utmost difficulty that he could be
gotten on the stump at all at a cru
cial period i1e> the history of the par
ty in this Stase. 1t is asserted by
those in position to know. publicly
charged by the Grafton Leader, and
not denied by him or his friends as
yet, that when his services were
thought to be needed in the cam
paign of 1892, to go to the mining
regions where his boosted strength
is now supposed to be, he declined
to go until his expenses were guar
anteed by the State Committee, and
support pledged for his appointment
to the office of district attorney in
case of National Democratic success.
which Office he has since secured and
now holds, probably through this ju-
dicious effort to "cast an anchor to
windward" before aiding the party
in its extremity.
There is nothing personal in the
statement of these facts, nor is there
one of them that reflects upon his
personal character or shows him to
be unfit for the high Office of Gov
ernor, but we feel that in view of the
bombast and fulsome eulogies of bis
merits which have been so contin
ually paraded before the public by a
newspaper or two in the State, it il
due to the Democratic party to show
that there are reasons which ought
to dispose of General Watts claims
to the gubernatorial nomination, and
place him at least upon a plane Of
ordinary equality with the Other
gentlemen whose friends may desire
them to obtain it.
