In a reference some time ago to the
Greeley campaign it was said that Mr..
Greeley delivered the most remarkable
series of political speeches that had ever
been given up to that time. He spoke
two and three times day, without
repeating previous utterances. The
speeches were recalled as read in press
dispatches, and we find the estimate we
have given of them confirmed in a foot
note to Col. Henry Watterson's article
in 1.-THE Humor and Tragedy of the Gree
ley Campaign" in the November Gen.
fury, in which it is said that Mr.. Greeley
delivered ga series of speeches of per-
suasive eloquence regarded as unexam-
pied in the political annals of the coun-
try" In the article itself Col. Waiter
son says:
If speech-making ever does any good
toward the shaping OF results, Greeley's
speeches surely should have elected him.
They were marvels of impromptu ora
tory, mostly homely and touching ap-
peals to the better sense and the magma
nimity of people not ripe or ready for
generous impressions, convincing in their
simplicity and integrity, unanswerahle
from any point of view of sagacious
Craftsmanship or true patriotism, if the
North had been in any mood to listen, to
reason, and to respond.
Col. Watterson writes Interestingly Of
the Liberal Republican movement and its
leaders and of the part taken in it by Sam
uel Bowes Of the Springfield Republi-
can, Murat Halsted of the Cincinnati Com
mercial, Horace White of the Chicago
Tribune and himself, the editor of the Lou
isville Courier ournal, and who became
known in the campaign as the Quadrila-
teral. Whitelaw Reid of the New York
Tribune became member of this COM
bine. Bowles and Halsted are Dead and
Reid, White and Watterson survive
Before giving out his article for publica-
ton Col. Watterson sent a copy to Reid
and White, and their notes accompany
1t in The Century. They naturally differ
on some points, the most material con-
corning the effect of Mr.. Greeley's death
on the country. 1t is a very beautiful
tribute Col. Watterson pays the dead
editor, expressing no doubt his own SEN
timents, but we agree with Mr.. White
that it did not have the effect Col. Wat
terson attributes to it. For example
His martyrdom shortened the distance
across the bloody chasm; his coffin very
nearly filled it,. SIN word Greeley did
more by his death to complete the work
of Lincoln than he could have done by
triumph at the polls and the term in
the White House he so much desired. -
Mr.. White says:
Chapter V on Greeley is prime, but it is
hardly true to say or imply that his mar
tyrdom shortened the distance across the
bloody chasm, or that his coffin nearly
nlled 1t. Reconstruction, Kuklux and

Without very great addition to the
number of customers, or to the amount of
money placed IN circulation, half dozen
or more new stores have been opened in
Belfast during the past year or so. to d.
vide the business with those already es-
tablished. Now, in addition to the con-
tinued endeavors Of the Board of Trade
To secure more new industries, efforts
should be made to bring trade here that
should properly come here but has been
diverted elsewhere. The long talked Of
electric road from Belfast to Camden-it
should also be built to Searsport would
be of material help in this direction, ard
by building up the intervening country
would lead to yearly increasing summer
business. Then the steamer route down
Eggemoggin Reach as suggested by Mr..
McIntire and reported in The Journal Of
Oct. 18th would surely bring many new
and desirable customers. Belfast has
today handsomer stores than many larg-
er places, with good stocks in all lines of
goods, and prices as low as elsewhere. If
you have not been in the habit of COM
ing to Belfast to do your shopping, try it
once. Call on the dealers whose adver-
tisements you see in The Journal and we
feel assured that you will come again.

The Century Magazine, which added
greatly to its prestige and circulation by
the publication serially of the life of Alb
raham Lincoln by John Hay and John G.
Nicolay GSs6) and by its series of war
articles, began with the November is
sue an after the War" series. The
first article is on the humor and tragedy
of the Greeley campaign by Col. Henry
Watterson. There was certainly both
humor and tragedy in that campaign
unique in our political history-and no
one is better equipped to portray it than
Col. Watterson.

Thomas Rolfe Of Milbury, Mass, came
nome drunk, ordered his wife and chill
dren out of the house and then set fire to
the buildings. Both house and barn
were destroyed and two cows and horse
were burned in the barn. When Rolfe
was brought up for trial the District At
torney reported that Massachusetts law
does not make it a crime for man to
burn a building belonging to his wife,
and SO the charge Of burning buildings
with intent to defraud was dropped, and
Role having pleaded guilty to the charge
of cruelty to animals was sentenced to a
years Imprisonment. "The law is a

Charles Macklin, who died in 1877, and

There could have been no doubt with
those we'll informed as to the result of
last Tuesdays election. With the Re-
publican party divided Democratic VIC
tory was assured. Worse might have
befallen the country than the election of
Gov. Wilson to the presidency. We
know him to be a scholar, and during the
campaign he proved himself to be gen.
tleman, and an occupant of the White
House should have these qualifications.
He is committed to tariff policy oppos-
ed to that under which the country has
prospered as never before, but as the
election mas had little disturbing effect
on business we may escape another soup
kitchen experience. So great and so
general is the present prosperity that it
may withstand the proposed changes in
the tariff under Democratic admins
tration. Let US hope so at all events.
As to President Taft, his fame is secure,
He will 60 into history as one of the
ablest and best presidents this country
has ever had. Had he been politician
and played to the grandstand he would
have been reelected.
