Corn Is small, aud only few days ago
one man said he did not believe there
would be an acre of good sweet corn
raised this season. But our faith Is 3
little stronger than that, since we have
had as small corn at this time OF the year
as il il now, and yet harvested good
crop in the fall. So let US hope and wait.
Time will tell.

but he Is good for 200 lbs. or more. His
mother Is Swiss COW, but his father Is
unknown. Mr.. Titus has all the stock
he wants without him, bat cannot think
Of having such y calf go for veal; and.
consequently wishes to sell him for a
mate or for future service. Any one 10
want of such stock would do well 10 &c

PoPOCRATs AND OTHER PoLITlCs

IL is the regular thing now for Demo
cratic mass meetings 10 hiss Cleveland.
Think of Il, The man who was for so
many years such an idol of his party g.
was never known since the DAYS OF
Henry CLAY. And the peculiar part OF
il is, il is the party and not the man that
has changed.
Don A. II. Powers, brother Of Hon.
Llewellyn Powers, is DemOcra, of
prominence. and two wears ago was the
Democratic candidate for congress in the
Fourth Maine District. The proceed
ingS II this year have Disguised him. and
he announces that he shall vote for
Mckinley.
IL il understood that the administra-
ton j. preparing 20 flood the silver states
with their own coin; that the minis will
coin silver dollars a. fast as possible,
and the product will be sent into those
StsteS which are clamorOus for unlimited
eoinsge Of the white metal, 70 give them
all they want Of it-SDd more.
The Democratic party in Maine is in a
fcarfullv and wonderfully mixed cOudi-
ton. There i q candidate for governor
nominated on a gold platform; and Il
capitalist nominated for vice president
by free-silyer-snti-capitSliSt-whOOp-'er-
up convention. There are only a few of
the Democrats who can tell where they
are al.
The nomination Of Hon. Arthur Sewsll
for yice-president is accepted BY the peo-
pie Of Maine as a personal honor, but
the nomination, under all the circum-
stances, is not one that rOuSes much en-
thusiasm. He will not carry even his
own family. Harold VI. Sewall already
announces that family relations make no
difference ia his political action.
Mayor Hanson OF Belfast. an ardent
free-silyerite, writes an open letter 10
WinslOw, the Democratic candidate,
asking him whether he is going 70 stand
on the state gold platform OF the con-
vention which nominated him. or the
silver platform Of the national coDyen-
ton. And the Democratic party is the
party OF state rights Candidate
Winslow very properly saws that as the
State Committee are 10 conduct the
campaign, he considers himself answera-
Die 20 them before Mr.. Hanson is en-
titled TO a reply.
The Eastern Argus, which has been
fighting free silver, swallows the ticket
and all the dOings OF the Chicago con-
vention, and runs the candidates names
up at the head Of It's columns. But this
is the way that it gets in a slap at the
national ticket:
