The indications at this writing are
that the Republicans have elected their
state ticket by plurality close on to
80, 900, all the congressman by large ma
jorlties, all the senators probably, and an
overwhelming majority OF the represen-
tatives in the legislature. The Republic
can plurality exceeds any which Re-
publican ticket has ever received in
Maine, except In the year 1896, when the
Democratic party was paralyzed and
threw only small part OF it's nomal vote.
1t is plurality which exceeds the
most sanguine expectations. 10000 to
20, 600 We're the figures most generally set.
1t can only be construed as the warm
est kind of an endorsement OF the Nc
kinney administration, and a most
crushing condemnation OF Organism.
The Republicans of Maine have again
shown by their ballots that they stand
Loyalty by Republican principles and
policies. The victory Will carry joy to
every Republican throughout the land,
and It's influence viii be felt from the
Atlantic to the Pacific. 1t sounds the
knelI OF Bryan and Organism. The cur
rent which was already running strong
ly toward Mckinley and a Republican
Congress, VIII be greatly accelerated by
this magnificent, victory. Maine has
done even better than Vermont.

The eminent German novelist Paul
Heyse declares in a recent magazine
article that he considers himself FORUM
ate in possessing the faculty of forgetting
his stories soon after he has written them.
This leaves his brain free for new I'M
pressi0ns and fancies, He has a great
aversion to reading over his stories after
they have appeared in print Many of
them are based on personal experiences,
and the plot of one, s'Frau Marchesa, -
was suggested to him in dream. He
began his literary career as a poet and
destroyed his earliest stories.
10 Miss HELEN James has been given
the unique experience OF being the only
woman ever allowed to make sketches
in the streets OF Moscow. This clever
young artist is one OF three chosen to IL
lustrate DENTS series OF volumes on the
medieval towns of Europe. For the
official permit to SIX otch in the streets
Miss James had to pay a fee Of about
eighty-tlve cents, and was furnished with
lengthy document. stamped sealed
signed and countersigned No sooner
had she begun to skeCch than she was
surrounded by curious crowds, which
were promptly oil spersed by the police, as
crowds are by no means 1ndulgenGly
treated under Il ussian rule, and to pre-
vent their assembling a stall wart repre-
sentative of the law was stationed behind
Miss James whenever she wanted to
sketch. The permit did not include the
Kremlin; for this she had to apply TO the
governor. The chief official, however,
was away and his deputy, though
courteous, would only give her his card
ands steadily refused to write anything
at all on it, and this extreme caution on
his part led to many complications, some
amusing, others wearisone and vexatious.
Gov. Lind of Minnesota, speaking re-
Gently at a meeting in St. Paul in oele-
bration of the landing or the first Ger

TRE PRESIDENTS LETTER OF AC.
CEPTANCE

NAAh n a LN0Hts
President McKinley's letter of accep.
lance is couched in the feicitous Ian
guage Of which he is master. 1t is
long, but necessarily so, as it deals with
many important topics OF q nature that
cannot be dismissed with brief refer
ence. II precedence is to be regarded as
indication OF Importance then Mr. Nc
Kinley regards the silver issue as the
most important one of the campaign, for
1t is given first place. Furthermore it
is given a great deal of space
Mr. McKinley's treatment of this
subject Is exceedingly strong and happy.
1t rests upon basis OF facts which no.
body can gainsay or dispute 1t is i'm
possible for one to read this part OF Mr..
MoKinley's letter without being con
vinced, not only that the currency is an
issue, but that it is one of the most inn
portant Issues in this campaign. The
continued prosperity of the country is
bound up IN preserving the gold standard
from all danger of attack, and this can
only be done under existing conditions
by returning President Mckinley and a
Republican Congress.
Mr.. Mckinley exhibits in a very i'm
pressive and effective way the marvellous
business prosperity the country is enjoy
ing under the legislation Of a Republi-
can Congress, and while he does not in
so many words endorse a subsidy policy
for shipping, he makes it clear enough that
such a policy would meet his approval.
What he says on the trust question is
conservative, but at the same time he
declares that he believes that pre-
ventive legislation is needed for those
combinations which undertake to con-
troll the market in commodities neces-
sary to the general use of the people, by
suppressing natural and ordinary compe-
tibion.
The President treats the Philippine
question at great length, reviewing
the various steps that led up to the
treaty and the subsequent instruction
OF the natives, which ne contends is mere
ly an uprising on the part of faction
inspired by personal ambition on the
part Of their leaders He denies THAT
there existed anything like on alliance
between the United States forces and the
AOICo5 VI ABuAuhiuOs OF OnaG we ever
directly or indirectly recognized the right
of Aguinaldo and the Tagals to govern
the islands. He condemns the idea
of a proteotorate preached by Bryan,
In the strongest terms, and says 1t would
be the very essence Of miIitarism. The
President makes very strong presenta.
tion of his policy in the Philippines an
makes 1t clear that all the United States
is doing in the islands is only the duty
that was imposed by the rati.

There Is more Catarrh In this sec.

few years was supposed to be incur
able. For a great many years doc.
tors pronounced it local disease,
and prescribed local remedies, and by
constantly failing to cure with local
treatment, pronounced it incurable.
Science has proven catarrh to be a
constitutional disease, and therefore
requires constitutional treatment.

by F. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio,
is the only constitutional cure on the
market. 1t is taken internally in doses
from 10 drops to a teaspoonful. 1t

All the historic precedents favor
the recollection of President Nc
Kinlev, for no President has ever
run for second term, with united
party behind him, who was not re-
elected. The Presidents who have
held two terms were Washington,
Jefferson, Madison, Monroe, Jack
son, Lincoln and Grant. These
were reelected either by the whole
people, as in the case of Washington
and Monroe, or by undivided
party vote. The Presidents who
were defeated for a second term were
John Adams, John Quincy Adams,
Martin Van Buren, Grover Cleve-
land and Benjamin Harrison, and
in each case their defeat was due to
dissensions in their own party, and
they were not Loyalty supported.
The most recent instances, Harrison
and Cleveland, are within the me-
mory of every one. The farmers
quarrel with Blaine lost him many
votes, while Cleveland was defeated
in New York hy one of the Demo.
cratic factions. But there are nc
divisions in the Republican party to-
day, based ON :he spirit of factor
or emnity to Mckinley. The party
stands four square to the word
representing an unbroken front il
every direction. The dissensiOns
are in the Democratic party, not the
Republican.
