The Bangor Wkig contains petition to the
government of that city, requesting that body
to petition the Legislature for authority fol
8 the city to loan its credit to the e. & N. A
Railroad Company-in addition to the hal
million already granted-to aid in the con-
struction of that enterprise to the town OF
Winn, to the extent of not exceeding one mill
, ion dollars. This petition is signed by about
: four hundred persons, but with our limited
acquaintance with the people of that city we
fail to discover in the entire list the names Of
any persons, with perhaps one or two excep-
tions, of any considerable reputation for
wealth or enterprise There may be many
such, butwe are unable to recognize them.
Per contra. In the same paper is call for
apublic meeting at the City Hall, of those op-
posed to the scheme of further loaning the
credit Of the city, and the signers to this call
suggest that such a loan "win paralyze the
city, inure its future prospects, render real es-
tate nearly valueless, and fail to promote a
corresponding benefit if completed" and they
y ask their fellow citizens to meet "for the pur-
pose of checking the wild spirit of an excited
community, on this subject, instigated by par
