The lank Yankees that run the Waterville
Mail do not properly appreciate the Obese Con-
yention which is contemplated at Lewiston. II
heads Its notice "a Greasy job" and says
"They claim to be really in earnest in getting
up fat mans convention at Lewiston. We
at first thought II only joke on the Androscog-
gin farmers who are advertising big hogs. It is
to end with supper. which committee Is
tojudge who cats the most. Somebody hints
that the idea originated with cooper, who
lacked market for a lot Of old fashioned swill-
pals. II the convention will weigh their brains
against their bellies they will find that extremes
have met"
A call has been issued to NIL men and women
In the State who favor Prohibition, to meet in
mass convention In Auburn on the 9th and 2Sth
of this month. Reduced fare on all the rail-
