given up the case as yet and still hope to

finding evidence enough to warrant ar
rests being made.-Portland Press.

The work of wiping out factional
bitterness and partisan strife has al
ready been accomplished and Gov.
McSweeney very largely did the work.
In the administration of the affairs of
the Office Gov. McSweeney has not rec
ognized the old factional lines, but
has always tried to do what was best
for. the whole people of the State and
has tried also to re-establsh local self
government by being guided in making
appointments in the several counties
by the recommendations Of the men
who have been trusted by the people to
represent them. There has been no
town against country during his ad-
administration, and but for the con-
servative and business-like course pur-
sued by Governor McSweeney the noni-
nation Of Capt. Hayward would not
have been probable. We are glad to
see that Capt. Hayward says he: is
going to keep up the policy pursued by
Gov. McSweeney and keep down all
factional differences and make an earn
est effort to be the governor of all the
people. In this course he will have
the endorsement of all the good people
of the State, and his administration
will go down in history with the good
will and well done of the people of the
commonwealth. ....>
