were made, the Republican members
voted in the House and Senate cleo
tions. Immediately a sharp dispute
arose over the validity of the legisla-
tive elections. 1t developed that after
the September election Of 1879 many
fragrant faults were discovered in The
returns made to the secretary of State;
when the returns came to be canvassed
by the Governor and Council in the
autumn of 1879, many were thrown out
while others were counted without
question. This was the basis of the
trouble.
The Republicans held that many men
were seated without a proper right 10
place in the Legislature. On the
other hand the Fusion party claimed
that the canvass had been a correct
one. and that each House must be the
Judge of the election of it's own MEM
bers when all the returns, good and
bad. were laid before it. AS certified
by the Governor and Council the House
stood IS Fusionists to 81 Republicans,
with IL vacancies, and the Senate stood
90 Fusionists to IL Republicans. The
Republicans continued to claim rank
frauds.
The general questions involved were
submitted to the supreme court. which
was composed of seven Republicans
and one Democrat. Three opinions
were rendered by the court on Jan. s,
Jan. IS and Jan. 81; these sustained
the Republicans at every point and
practically announced the illegality OF
the Fusion party in its Legislative or
ganization. The dispute, instead of
subsiding. grew fiercer than ever. The
court received numerous scorching ex-
coriations from the Democratic press
and the people in general. -
The Fusion Legislature. however, lid
not dissolve. 1t continued to meet in
the State House at Augusta, from its
assembly to the night of Jan. u, 1850.
On the evening of that day, at about
I o'clock. the Republican members of
the Legislature and those claiming to
have been counted out of election. or

and marched to the State House. There
they organized a new Legislature.
They secured a gattling gun. loaded
it, and, surrounding it with armed
men. placed it at the State House
entrance. When the Fusion members
marched on the State House, later.

For long time clash was imminent

the Fusionists retired.

MAINE POLO LEAGUE.
POLO NOTES.

Waterville is getting a touch of the
polo fever, and there are parties there
who are anxious and willing to put a
team into the Maine League.
Lewiston Sun: The polo fever has in
vaded Y. NJ. c. A. circles and the Lewis
ton and Auburn associations are trying
to organize couple of teams. The in
tenton is to meet in a series of games
to be played previous to the league games
in this city. Such games will be called
at o'clock and would doubtless prove
quite an attraction. In case the Auburn
Association does not bring out team.
Lewiston intends organizing two teams.

position and Broadbent has covered the
top of his cage with sticking plaster.
Everything points toward a proper game
with proper ending.
Portland Argus: The average spectator
who witnesses polo game for the first
few times Is somewhat amazed that the
players are not more frequently incapa-
citated by injuries. 1t does seem won
der, considering the nature of the game,
the rapid manner in which it is played,
the frequency of collisions between the
players, the hard vulcanized rubber ball,
the stout hickory sticks and the ire
mendous drives for goals that there are
SO few accidents. The reason for this is
somewhat explained by witnessing :, a
player preparing for the fray. First the
player dons a thick wooden undershirt
and over that, covering the front part of
his body. is a large breast protector of
felt nearly two inches in thickness. Over
this Is his knit Jersey. His feet are en-
cased in heavy, thick soled2 brogans with
the steel skates firmly riveted to them.
Over the ball of the foot is placed "a
thickness of felt, while his knees and
shins are protected by his stockings, a
ribbed leather shin pads with hinge at
the knee to admit Of freedom of action.
Despite the apparent cumbrous outfit. the
players skins over the surface at top
nearly all the time. the player is not in
jured by stopping the ball. The players
arms and face are the only vulnerable
parts of the body. and there a person IS
usually injured In an accident.

BY HARD LUCK.
Augusta Loses to Portland
After Playing Fine Game.
Scote l Tie for First Two Periods
Then Season Of Hard Luck.


of herself. She completely went back
on the Augusta polo team, Saturday
evening, in their game with Portland,
at a time when better things were de-
served. The Augustus presented hard,
scientific game, and fairly outplayed
the visitors, if they were defeated by
a score of to 4.
Thrice did the Augustus cage the ball
in their opponents goal, to have it roll
out onto the floor. And once, by the
merest chance, as the ball sped by the
Augustus cage, it hit against the skate
of Jason, and slipped in as if drawn by
a string.
After suffering all these things to
have that decision in the last period
calling a foul on Berry in goal, giving
the Portlands a score outright, was
too much to bear. and although des-
parately fought. it was of no use.
For the first two periods it was as
close and exciting as one could stand
it, with first one. then the other team
getting a score. At the end of the
first and the second, the score was left
a tie for the excited audience to chew
on during the intermission.
Early in the last period that foul was
called, which, coming right after the
hard luck, seemed to fall like a fog on
Augusta, and the Portlands took two
goalsfin quick succession.
But for a worthy contest, the home
players take the palm, as they played
one Of the best passing and general all
around team work games that has been
seen here this season.
There was some brilliant individual
work. Lee, on whom much personal
abuse was manifested by some of the
Portland players, was as good as a
dozen men at half back and time and
again that crowd let itself loose, and
applauded his fine defensive work, as
he stopped drive after drive.
Berry, new man here, one of the
Westerly players, tended goa, in great
style in the absence of Uncle Peter
Racket, whose jaw bone was broken
at Rockland, Friday evening. With 80
stops to. his credit, many of them of a
truly extraordinary kind, he won
great glory, and soon infused conf
dence in his fellow players, that that
important position would be we'll de-
tended.
Turner again proved himself star
Of the first magnitude, in brilliancy, If
he is small in size, and completely out
played any man Of the opponents.
Gavitt made some good drives, one
landing in the goal, on a pass from
Jason, that made a double play which
brought the audience to its feet, with
one loud yell.
Jason made some of his old time
rushes, and was as usual pretty much
everywhere that occasion demanded.
For Portland, j. Dawson and Allen
put up the best game. Schotield also
put in some sharp work. But for team
playing, the visitors were not in it,
