The rumor is rife about town that the Lead
ers of the Democratic party are thinking of
nominating Gov. Chamberlain as their capdi-
date at their State Convention tomorrow.
Now if they do, we can't accuse them of steal
ing our thunder exactly, because their nomi.
nation will come after ours and only add to it
deeper diapason. Now this movement NAV
be considered novelty in party tactics, but
there IS touch of philosophy in Ii altar al
The leaders of the democracy have been pull
ing many strings for some years past, but with
out success. Knowing as well as we do that
they made some ugly tracks when they cross
ed the war-path Of their country during the re-
bellion, and seeing the necessity of covering up
those footprints, they suppose the most ready
and thorough way of doing it is to endorse our
candidate and throw themselves and the rank
and file of their party into the loyal arms of
the Republicans. Who will dare to say there
is not political shrewdness in such movements
when the fate of the old Federal party is re-
membered? Now, if this contemplated move
ment should be carried out, and our candidate
elected by unanimous vote of all the people,
what could we do with all these Democrats
when our ranks are already so full? They
would be quartered upon us and occupy our
tents in spite CT all opposition. And what
would Gov. Chamberlain do with such num-
erous host of political friends? They are hun
CRY for Office, and have been for long time.
There's no doubt about that Such move on
the political chess board would place our wor-
thy Governor in more embarrassing position
than any one he occupied while he was fight
ing Southern rebels to save his country and its
flag. In view of these rumors we shall wait
with much anxiety for the doings of ,-mor-
rows convention.

tribute to the road not less than $1,000 per
year, If mo further improvements we're made.
Seyenth-water power at Highland rips, 20
feet head and fall not occupied.
Eighth-Water power. The Great Ossipee
river from Kezar Falls to its junction with
the Saco, two miles above Highland lips, but
little slack water, for seven miles. Kezar
Falls are one and half miles in length, and
not less than 80 feet head and fall.
Ninth Water power at Great Falls; one Of
the finest water powers in the world and so
well known that need not describe It; owned
by the Saco Water Power Co. 81
Some will reply that the water power OF
Maine will never all be developed. Very true;
but who will say, that with this road built up
the Saco, that none Of this vast water power
will be improved? Would it not be more reas-
enable to conclude that within few years it
would all be occupied, increasing the popula-
ton 300,O 900 inhabitants
Tentb-The road would take all the business
of Brideton, Harrison, Denmark and Sweden,
Bridgton Centre, only six miles from the SAGE
river; all the business of Limerick, Newfeld,
Parsonsfeld, Cornish, and up the valley of
the Great Ossipee, (until the Rutland road is
built, connecting at Cornsh,) would come on
this road. .sfa.g e
If the road is located up through Denmark
and Sebago, or east of the Sebago Lake, all the
business west Of the valley Of the Saco would
be lost to Portland, and much of that east, as
the road from Saco would then be built.
The Saco Water Power Company could we'll
afford to contribute largely to the same, to
make available their water power at Salmon
Falls and Great Falls, two of the best in the
State.
The writer has no object in view but the
welfare of Portland and the best interests of
the road not one dollar invested on the line of
the road outside of Portland. p. T. G.

Location of the Ogdensburg Railroad.
+ To The Editor oft Press
I SR,-Permit me to give you a few facts in
favor of locating the Ogdensburg up the valley
of the Saco.
First-By going to Bar Mills and running
up the river, on either bank, the road can be
built cheaper than on any other contemplated
route to Conway; few grades, no deep cuts.
Second-There is more water power within
twenty miles up the river, from Bar Mills
than can be found anywhere in this State, or
the New England States, that is available
l. Bar Mills, with 20 feet head and fall; very
small portion Of this power occupied q West
Buxton Falls, 20 feet head and fall. This vii
lage has 1000 inhabitants, seven stores, two
large woolen mills, one gang saws cutting out
seven to eight millions lumber per year into

there will be no sudden changes in either the
editorial or business management of the Times
in consequence of the death of Mr.. Raymond.
All the rumors of changes are without founda-
tion. The entire management of the Times
has long been ruled by its proprietors, Mr..
Raymond as editor and Mr.. George Jones as
publisher, who now succeeds to the response
blities which he so long shared with his dis

The closing exhibition of this deservedly
popular school took place on Thursday, June
oath, in the Congregational house in Norridge-
wock. 1t consisted of prize declamations by
the gentlemen and reading by the ladies in the
afternoon, and strawberry festival in the eve
ming Both we're largely attended.
The exercises in the afternoon were alternate
reading and defamation, an equal number of
each, both for prizes. The fixed attention of
the audience to the exercises shows that all
were deeply interested It could not we'll be
otherwise. Both exercises were admirable and
shew the effect of careful and thorough drill
ing. The task of the different committees was
no easy one. Among the candidates for the
different prizes were several SO nearly equal in
merit thatit was difficult to say who excelled.
Of the successful candidates it can only be said,
that ne or she very little excelled several un-
successful candidates.
There was also a prize awarded for the best
composition, for which none but ladies COM
peted As they were not tread, nothing is
known of them except by the committee. But
to Judge of them from the character of the per-
formances witnessed by the public, they were
undoubtedly excellent.
The fortunate recipients of the prizes were,
in Defamation William f. York, of Y armouth,
Me-; in composition Miss FL. r. Danforth, of
Norridgewock; in reading Miss NJ. B. Hilton,
of Norridgewock. Tss0sa sspkeS
The strawberry festival in the evening was
intended as good time generally for all that
might choose to come in, and particularly for
the friends Of Mr.. Eaton and the patrons Of the
school, AS such it was eminently successful.
The Skowhegan Band was present both af-
ternoons and evening and at intervals dis
coursed sweet music to the great qualification
of the audience, doing, as they ever do, great
credit to themselves. sq
This closes the thirteeuth year of Mr.. Eaton's

teacher 1t is to be hoped that he may long

rest assured that my Individual efforts for the
