There was no charge of graft made.
The genial Democratic Gubernatorial can
didate simply indulged In a general com
plaint-a querelous cry that expenses OF
the State were too much. Would the
genial colonel specify in any one detail
what expenses he would cut down? Then
the people would have an issue and could
decide as to whether or not his judgment
was good.
But he will not. Like child he simply
says: II would reduce the whole" He
gives no bill of specifications whatever
nor can any Democrat be found who will
point out one detail where Democracy
would prune the expenses of running the
State!
The Republicans are on record. The
money they expend is all down in the
books to the last cent, and no Democrat
dares to hint even at graft when such a
gentleman as State Auditor Charles p.
Hatch scrutinizes closely every item in
every bill against the State of Maine.
Our State of Maine 8 per cent. bonds
are above par and the State treasury Is
not empty and there is plenty of money
with which Maine can pay her bills
Democracy is engaged in making bid
for Independent voters who alone Demo-
Gratis say, are the salvation Of the ma
ton. Democracy is united.
Look at Democracy's record, not too far
back. but In 1896 they swallowed Bryan's
doctrine now everywhere repudiated, of
silver at l6 to J. Democrats opposed first
the issue of the greenback, then they
loved the greenback and opposed resump-
tion of specie payments. Now they would
like the Independent vote to give them a
chance at the finances of Maine!
They would throw out the party under
which Maine has been a State of pros
porous homes and people and utterly in
capable and reckless fill the offices with
their partisans.
They assail our courts and complain
that they have not enough judges on the
bench.
Go back to Governor Garcelon's day
when Harris NJ. Plaisted refused to re-
appoint Judge Artemus Libby for the
reason that Judge Libby. Democrat
though he was, denounced Democracy for
its base attempt to steal the State!
Judge Powers spoke for an hour, being
frequently interrupted by hearty ap-
plause. and then yielded gracefully to the
golden-tongued orator of Ohio, Congress-
man Cole.

which have been CONSTRUCTED" be-

of the representative of large con-
struction concern before the Fort

steps to be taken in the work.
1t is probable that the Greeley

take up and consider the proposition
of the establishment of the new line
