ominated on tlio third b iilit for Gov
ernor of Maine by the republicans on
the 20ih.
The Sultan baa ordered the Khedive
of Fgypt to abdicate, and be has done
m. Mnce Teerelek, his son and heir,
H his successor. The abdication is tbe
result of Jviropean diplomacy.
Tin: President has vetoed the j idi
ciary appropriation bill oo tbe ground
that it took from hi in the power to ex
cute laws which have not been repealed,
and that as long as a law mnains on thu
statute books be shnu'd bate the means
of enforcing it. A rasj rity of Senators
nre i;i fiifnr of passing the bill without
nny riders, and going to the country on
the issue, aud this uUo seems to be the.
opinion of many of the representatives
We are willing to abide by the course
adopted by the Democrats in Washing
lion, but it seems to us, they have been
yielding long enough. Why not refuse
ooy appropriation at all, and let the gov
ernment stop. If the Republicans can
stand it we can.

Tbe matters of importance and in-
teiest to every man in the county,
which will ba transacted at the meeti g
( tbe board of magistrates in August
will doubtless carry a large number of
our citiiens to Halifax on that dav.
Would it not bo well for a convention
to be called for that day, and an or-
gaiiizatinu of the Democratic party be
effected for the campaign of 1880
Nothing can succeed without some
plan, agreed upon, and understood, by
by all who Imvo a part to execute J and
it would hardly be prematuro to begia
in August. Wo must have orcanitation.
without it there is no systematic work,
no corporation, no unity. With it a
rreat deal can bo done, and it is our
d ity to do what wo can, to hel.i in the
great strugg'e which will take place
ett year between Democracy and
honest government on one siJe, and
Republicanism and cirrupti m on the
other.
A I. AW was enacted by (he legisla-
ture h March last, nu'lmriz'ng the or-
ganizition of a board of health in each
county. J he boar J is to be composed
of all physicians in the county who are
rlcc'ible to be members ol the State
fllndicnl Society, .the chairman of the
Dunrd ol conniiSM ioers. the mayor ol
tbe connty town, and the county survey-
er. This board shall elect a county
aiiperintendc'tof health, who shall bave
charge of the poor bouse, jail and other
public institutions. He shall make all

FOlll III OF JI I.Y.
To nvirrnw is the fourth of July, once
celebrated over tho whole land, in every
villige and cross nads. Tho milkary
and civic bodies turned out and vied
with each other in display. Dinners
were given, speeches made, and music
enlivened the occasion. All this was
done to celebrate our independence
ftnm an oppressive yoke. It wn indeed
years ngo a glorious day. The children
even, caught enthusiasm from their
fathers, and the p itriot'wm of the whole
people was aroused. All this was be
fore the war.
And now, what & change. Oily
!u three or four places will there be ci 1
obrations. TheHtuth has on heart to
take part in it. What is the use of cel
ebrating an indepnnd nso which does
not exist? Wby should the S uth
honor, what is to hor, a shadow? She
cannot do it, and it would bo a mockery
to attempt it, when that independence
has been foujht fur nod lost at the ex
pense of many whoso places at the fire
side cannot bo filled, and wboao bones
lie uncoverel In the valley of Virginia.
It would ill become the Siuth
to-celebrate to morrow, with the tears
not yet dry, and tbe garnouts of
m towing not yet kiid aside. What care
we for ai independence which is only a
luxe? and a nnmtt too, ,u which si
many crimes are committed. No. Let
the people it the Nurth make merry,
We at the S iiith hae no heart fur it
and will look on in s'latcc.
Tin: 1'rtsi Jcut bus vetoed the bill
making appropriations to pay United
States nnrshah. This veto is based on
the ground that the bill should not re
strict hi right to enforce laws not yet
repealed. The truth of the matUT is,
tmt ibo It. 'publicans, intend t ) oppose
all measures, which will take away any
of their chances of success. And thi,
whether nr tint those measures are for
the good of the country, whether or not
they are unconstitutional, whether or
not the powers which those mcasu-es
seek to curtail, are abased. The Re
publican party know no country, no
statesmanship, knows nothing that doe)
not lend to tbe ad'ancement of their
pirlisan schemes. To tbcm party su
premacy is law and nothi g will present
them from doing eery thing in their
power rijjht or wrong, that will help the
party.
The Ibmicratic party his hud
up bill work ccr since it has gotten
control of Congress, to pass e ind law,
and such as will maintain the purity of
elections. They have nt'.eropleJ to pro
mote tin welfare of the people and t
take away illegal povers which have
been assuncd by the exectiliro, aid
every effort is met by a veto from Mr.
lliyes. Now let them exercise their
veto power a little, aud say to the
stalwarts we bave done all we could and
you have impeded us. nowr we will do
nothing else. It' you want npprnpria
aliens you must take them on our terms
or you will not get them. Lit them do
Ibis and if the Hipublicans refuse, a J
j rn and come borne, and if the Presi
dent convenes them in extra session
"gam. let thern go back and act on the
8a!e policy again. We suppose, the
Democrats in Congress (ear that such
action on their part will do the party
"arm in the elections of next year. It
so, let it be so. The odds will be
against us if the deputy marshals are nl
lowed to control tho ballot boxes. 0
me oue nan i we win nave deputy mir
sbals to work against, on the other, we
"ill havo to contend against tho eiL-ct
produced by a refusal ta make aporo
priations with riders
With all due respect to the Dome-
crats iu Congress, with whose course we
will be satisfied whaicrcr it may be,
Ue prefer to rhli defeat without bcinc
bull-dosed, than to be browbeaten with-
out improsing matters,
As Senator Vance has said "if the
Democrats in C ingress cannot show to
the people that Hayes is to blame for
starving tho government, then they do
,t deserve success. Conciliation lias
bean tried and proved a failure, now
see what virtue thero is firmness, ll ifuse
to pass tbe appropriation bills nnd ltt
the Republicans make the most of it
