Schuyler Colfax, who was elected vice
president on the ticket with General
Grant in 1868, might have been and prob
ably would have been renominated ex-
cept for public announcement some
months before the convention that, be-
cause of i'll health, he should not be a
candidate. Bangor Commercial.
This is an error. Colfax was a candi-
date before the convention and was de-
feated by the concerted action of the
Washington correspondents. The news
papers made Colfax by keeping his name
constantly before the public, and to en-
sure this he was always counting their
favor. But when he attained the Office
of vice president he had no further use
for them and kicked down the ladder by
which he had attained eminence. Now
the Washington correspondents of that
day, while representing newspapers of
different shades of political opinion, were
personally practically unanimous in their
estimates of public men and measures,
and they arrayed themselves as one man
against Colfax. No political campaign
was ever better organized than theirs.
The work was carefully planned out. A
delegation went to Philadelphia, where
the convention assembled June s. 1872.
and others were detailed to pull the
wires in Washington. They decided up
on Henry Wilson of Massachusetts al
ways a good friend of the newspaper
men-as their candidate, and secured his
nomination. The vote was: Wilson,
1854 l-2; Colfax, 321 IL. Neither before
nor since has there been such a demon
stration of the power of the press, and
we wish that some one of the active par
Elephants in the movement might write it
up in detail. 1t is certainly a notable
chapter in American journalism.
Edward Stanwood in his History of
Presidential Elections" says of the Re-
publican National Convention of 1872:
"Mr. Colfax had given offence to certain
Of the fraternity of Washington CORE
spondents and they determined to use all
their power to defeat his nomination.
They were assisted in their work by the
presentation of the name of Mr.. Henry
Wilson by the Republicans of Massa-
chusetts as candidate. Considering the
closeness of the vote it is not too much
to say that Mr.. Wilson owed his nominal
ton to these correspondents.

The Boston Transcript says of the
presidential campaign of 1872:
The campaign ended in gale of laugh
ter, notwithstanding that Greeley had
delivered series of speeches that merit
ed the respect of those who could not
applaud his sentiments.
The series of speeches made in that
campaign by Horace Greeley were I'M
equaled in many respects. Most cam
paign speakers make practically the same
speech in each place visited. Mr.. Gree
ley often spoke two or three times day,
each time making different speech, all
pertinent, terse and vigorous. The carl
caturists made sport of the man, but his
speeches were beyond criticism.

illustration. 1t is within the memory of
some of our readers-t the writer included

two or three fishing villages. A few of
our own people used to go there and
rough 1t for time in the summer. Then
the artists drifted down that way, and
their paintings advertised the scenic
attractions produced by the juxtaposi-
ton OF sea and mountain. The fame of
Mt. Desert spread. More artists went
there, and in their train f1ocked the sum-
mer visitors year after year in increasing
numbers. At first they shared the homes
and homely fare of the residents; then
hotels sprang up, crude affairs, with none
of the conveniences and elegancies found
In the hostelrys of today. Then the
cottagers began to come in, and land
values increased thousand fold. What
Mt. Desert is today all the world knows.
To come nearer home, there are scenic
beauties in this immediate vicinity that

they had remained unrevealed for years.
Passing visitors had expressed their adj

TAILoRS' CASES COME UP
IN THE JUSTICE COURT TO-DAY

When arraigned before Justice OF
the Peace Fl. II. Atkinson this morn
ing on charges of failing to comply
with the town ordinance requiring
them to pay a quarterly license Of
SIS as mercantile agents, E. B. Gray,
local tailor, pleaded guilty, while
Toy Wells and Fritz Toback, also
tailors, interposed a plea of not
guilty. Carl Drossel, the fourth tailor
charged under the ordinance to test
its validity, was represented by At
torney William Forman and did not
plead.
Attorney Forman demurred to the
complaint on numerous grounds,
among them that the ordinance is UNI
constitutional and savors of class
Legislation. Upon the conclusion OF
Mr. Forman's remarks, Judge AT
kinson took the matter under ad
visement and will render decision
Monday, after which, if he rules ad
