The utility or wisdom OF newspaper

charge of forestalling public sentiment,

about this. A paper may give expression

but the attempt 10 manufacture capital
is Objectionable.
The Bangor Wing dominates one of
its own citizens, Gen. Samuel Hersey,
as the republican candidate for Cover

said and true. to our personal knowi-
edge. The Bath Times seconds the
Wing and speaks Of Understandings

Ship Owners Meeting.

The owners Of vessel property in this
city met last Wednesday afternoon to
organize an association having for its
object. the protection. and careful con-
sidcraiion of the interests of this elias, of
property by the city authorities, in the
future. y. A. Joy was cho-c Chairman
and ID. G.. Eaton Secretary.
The Chairman stated in some remarks
on taking the chair. that quarter of a
million OF dollars worth Of property of
the citizens of the city is in navigation.
and that this interest is an important
one, and one that is growing quite
rapidly. IL gives employment in one
way and another 10 fouror five hundred
people, and vet this class of property is

value while all other property Is rated

here run two tickets and the result Of It
is that no election was made Of Councils
men. But the fun of the thing comes in
here the meeting did not adjourn to
day certain. when il was ascertained
that no choice was made but adjourned
without dav. The city charter SAYS:
eff the choice of Aldermen and Common
CounciImcn cannot conveniently be
effec,ed on that day. the meeting NAV
be adjourned from day To day TO com
pleie such election.
Some think the old CouEcilmen hold
over. because section Is says: "Ail said
officers Mayor. Aldermen and Com
mon Councilmen) shall be elected by
ballot by majority of the votes given.
and shall hold their offices one year from
the first Monday in April and until 9th
ers shall BE- elected in their places"
But section ~ saws: Each board shall
keep a record of its proceedings, and
Judge of the election of its own MEM
bers: and in case of failure of election,
or vacancy by death. resignation or
otherwise. may order new elections"
Now suppose the Common Council do
not declare that there is a vacancy. what
then? Then il does not saw, shall order
new elections. but may.
1t may be questionable whether the
old Warden and Clerk can legally act
for that day, although il was decided
that they should by good legal counsel.
Section 18th. says:-
On the last Monday OF March. annual
", immediately after a Warden and
Clerk shall have been elected and srorR,
the qualified electors of each Ward shall

following the time honorcd custom
prevailing in towns of choosing a Modcr-
ator and Clerk. after which The voters
proceed 10 elect the usual town officers
and to do the usual town business.
Another point may as well be called
attention to here and AT this time. that
is the way and manner of calling the
ward meetings. Section - says: He.
| (the city clerk shall give notice in one
or two of the papers printed in said city
OF the time and place of regular ward
meetings
1t seems to Us that a notice posted in
