"REMEMBER THE MAINE"

There was a time when our Repub-
| lican contemporary rejoiced, or seemed
TO rejoice, when a fight was won, or
gains made, in the interest of silver
But no alliance had then been formed
between the so-called "silver Republic
ans and the Mckinley Republicans
of Utah. 1t is different now.
An election was held in Maine the
other day. The silver issue was forced
to the front by both parties. The Re-
publicans declared for gold, as all Re-
publicans should, and endorsed the st.
Louis platform. The Democrats re-
affirmed the Chicago platform of 1896.
Returns show the Republican loss to
be little over 20 per cent of their vote
two years ago. The Democratic shrink
age was per cent, leaving great odds
with the silver people. Naturally, The
Herald rejoiced, but the Tribune growls
and says:
The gains were through the fact that
5000 men who voted the PopuliSt ticket
two years ago voted for the Democrat
ic candidates this year.
Probably the Republican organ can
not help feeling sore over the result in
Maine. but it has no business to mis-
state the facts in trying to bolster up
its spirits.
1t says that 5000 men voted the Popu-
list ticket in Maine two years ago.
That is not so. In 1896 Bryan received
Se,2O1 votes on the Democratic ticket
and 2,4S9 on the Populist ticket. In
1892 Weaver, the Populist candidate
for president, received 2,3S1 in Maine.
The candidate for governor received a
little over 5000 votes.
Although the Tribune stretched the
blanket twice its real length, it's own
exaggerated figures do not begin to ex-
plain the goldbug loss in Maine this
year.
Take, for example, the Reed district,
where there We're only 100 Populist
votes cast in 1896. Tom Reed had
plurality OF 1888; he has 5,312 plurality

Interest in the reunited Republican
ism of Utah is on the decline The at
tendance at the primaries before the
Republican state convention was sur
prisingly small, but last night it
dwindled down to almost nothing
Some of the districts had moderate
turnouts, many had barely enough to
ill ~ the delegations, while others
were not attended at all. This condition
is not merely the result of apathy, but
of growing disgust among the people
for party that declares for both the
single standard and bimetallism, that
honors goldbugS and approves Ayers
treatment of the soldiers. Nor should
the Republican party of his state eX-
pect men to follow it in all its devious
meanderings on the financial question
The primaries last night were indica-
tive of how the people feel upon this
matter, and no appeal to prejudice or
personal warfare will be sufficient to
blind the voters of the city and state
to the fact that the Republican party
is guilty of double dealing, as evidenced
by their state platform.

SEPTEMBER THOUGHTS.

These are beautiful September nights.
The days are warm and enervating,
but the night air is full of tonic This
is the month that marks the steady
sinking of the mercury in its tube,
that prepares one, for the biting breezes
of October, when the frost is on the
pumpkin and the folders in the
shock"
September is q. month Of home-com-
ing, of shortening days and pleasant
rambles in the lengthening twilight. 1t
is month of evening entertainments,
of theatres, of quickening trade. Chill
dren begin their daily march to the
temples of learning in September. Their
laugh is heard again upon the streets
and along the country lanes. Manly
boys and modest maids renew their
friendships of the year before. Teach
ers take up the threads again from
which the reins of government are
woven.
And this particular September is
greeting thousands of heroes at the
threshold of their homes; volunteers
who are mustered out as the autumn is
mustered in. There will be homes where
the doors are opened in vain; where
the candle in the window will burn
down, and the flame go out as the soul
of the fallen hero went out, leaving the
little room in darkness.
But even there the cooling, soothing
wind of the September night will stop
to kiss the mourner's cheek, and pass
like the wandering spirit of summer in
quest OF it's departed friends.
September is a glorious month, brac-
ing, invigorating, full of cheer and
sympathy.

Speaking of General Wheelers at
tempt to whitewash Alger, the Com
mercial Advertiser, a goldbug Repub-
lican organ, says: General Wheeler
does not touch upon the two worst
scandals in this wretched business-the
sending of sick soldiers home from
Cuba in cattle transports that were not
fit for well men, and without the food,
medicine or attendance that invalids
required, and the failure to give long
enough notice of the opening of the
camp to enable proper preparations for
Che reception OF the troops to be made"

Before Arthur Brown cracked his
whip, before the Republican state con-

of the war, morning contemporary

administration for the way the soldiers
had been treated in the war with Spain.

The Republican Detroit Tribune says:
IF all the facts were at hand it would
doubtless be found that this particular
case of criminal neglect was only one

petence and neglect of men upon whom
the secretary of war has relied to per-
form their duties honestly and capa-

COMMENTS OF THE PRESS.

Cincinnati Enquirer: The suggestion
that Governor Black may find consolation
in contemplating Ii Hung Chang's loss of
his yellow jacket is not a good one. Lis
personal fortunes were probably mended
by the performance in which he is engag-
ed, and there is trouble ahead. Governor
Black. if he is cut off in his ambition. will
have nothing to do but retire to his back
office, lock himself in. figure up the cost
of his campaign, and watt for the hui
initiation of having been ousted by the
commander of the Rough Riders to blow
over. Ii may have to return his fee to
Russia. England is not going to be quiet
under the stigma of having been sold
out" Russia will not pay unless she gets
the worth of her money.

Ne.y York Is Ready.

New York, April 2l.-'When the Ma
tional Guard is called upon for active
service il viii at once respond. That
is the eist of the entire matter
Major General Roe so expressed him
self yesterday when seen in regard to
the readiness Of the militia of the State
10 go 20 the front.
In accordance with an order issued by
Adjutaut General Tillinehast, the regi-
ments Of the State have been canyassed
IN regard 10 the Willingness Of the men
TO volunteer.
Il am not n liberty to give detailed
statement of the different regiments -
said Gen. Roe. but J may say that about
80 per cent Of the total number Of mill
tialnen ia the State at large are ready to
volunteer al once About 50 per cent OF
those in Greater New York regi-
ments are ready.
The general said that il was his opin-
ion that men who have families depend
eut upon them should not be expected to
go among the first. About twice the
number Of men that will be demanded
Of New York on the first call for So O0I
troops have already signilied their inten-
ton 10 volunteer. New YOrks proper
ton Of the $1,000 would be about G000,
and almost 1900 have signihed their
readiness.
Cen. Roe said that it was impossible
10 say what regiments would be first Sc
lected
