POpham Celebration.

OATH, aug ", 1874.
"Popham day." now fairly inaugurated as a
popular Kennebec picnic occasion, dawned
amid attractive climatic surroundings and
ended great success.
At the appointed hour the barge yosemite p
Sagadahoc nondescript water-craft of preat
capacity and convenience, wasiilled to Meth.
ORIG condition. Some eight hundred To a
thousand people, representatives Of the better
circles of society, were emptied upon her decks
from incoming trains and the streets of the
city of Bath.
The passage to the mouth of the Kennebec
waters, the "Sagadahoc" of the Aborginies of
1907 was enlivened by varied martial music
from the Bath band.
At 11.30 the landing was made on the wharf
of Fort Popham-a substantial granite work Of
great strength, but uncompleted, and the large
company was greeted by some three hundred
already gathered from the surrounding islands
and water courses and farm houses of the
mainland, in water-craft and land carriages.
The Maine Historical Society was represent

Gilman of Brunswick was chairman. We
also noticed the President Of the Society," Hon.

venerable indeed, but as courteously and in

stuff, Of which Governor Dngley was by no
means the least conspicuous element,

Hon. B. G. Bailey of BATH, the efficient chair
man of the "Popham committee" of that city,
in brief, but pertinent remarks, called the as
semblage to ORDER and invited Gov. Dingley to
preside, who in very brilliant response, hap
PLY introduced the literary treat of the occa-
sion by saying:
Among our anniversary days, this is the pride
OF Maine, when on this spot 267 years ago,
New England began its life, and although his
tory has not recorded all the facts connected
with its beginning yet here thirteen years before
Plymouth's day, the hum of English civiliza-
ton and industries were heard.
DIR. Hough, the orator of the occasion, then
said:
This event brings us to the spot where 267
years ago England began her actual possession
of New England. Saying nothing of Scandina-
Wan visits, and after the ample discussions of
the purposes and character of the colonization
undertaken here, only remark that the pur-
pose was for permanent occupation. The agen-
cy of woman would have been fortunate in this
undertaking, and we may seek in vain for the
details OF the first landing, which have led to
the great point of interest "Pemaquid," which
in century grew into the metropolis of New
England before Boston was, as the state pa
pers from its inhabitants show.
Recurring to the voyages of Gasnald, Pring
and Weymouth, and the facts tending to show
'fPemaquid" to have been a busy manufact-
Hough gave a very intelligent and
graphic exhibit of the state affairs in the court
Of Charles III, which led to the erection of Penn
aquid into ducal state as the patrimony of
the Duke of York and province of the state
of New York. Q6604, and also a vindcation
of the ducal governor, Andres. His sketches of
Maverick were novel and interesting, and of
his relations both to Massachusetts and the
| government of the ducaI state, as an intimate
| and trusted friend of the crown administration,
and especially of his personal relations and in
| fuence with the Duke of York. He said Nav
| erick was Staunch Episcopalian, and as such
an object of distrust, and subject of more or
| less detraction and persecution with the ruling
powers of the bay government.
Gin the presence of the children, said Dr..
Hough, "one should speak well of the
| parent, but where has ever existed power
which has shown itself so ready to govern her
neighbors as well as herself, as has the people
| of)Massachusetts;' it was even applied to New
York in an at tempt to stretch her rule over
| seven counties of that state on the banks OF
| the Hudson.
Such were the salient points of an interesting
and instructive paper.
The address was followed with brief remarks
by the Hon. James w. Bradbury, Hon. GEO.
7. Davis of Portland, Rev. D. Cushman Of
Bath, the historian of ''Sheepscot farms Of
1926, r. K. Sewall of Wiscasset, and G, J.
Gilman of Brunswick, as, called out by Gov
Dingley, and all in further illustration of thu
objects of the occasion, which may be regarded
as most successful issue of this popular state
celebration.

JUST let the white leaguers and despera-
does in the South who are now making war
upon the negro tell their own stories respect
ing the "insurrections" and ''conspracies"
of the despised race, and then in the same
column give the results of such disturbances
in their own words, and no better evidence of
their villainy is needed. For instance, the
troubles on the Red River in Louisiana, as
published in yesterdays paper, reported that
five hundred negroes were armed and threat
ened destruction to all whites in the region.
Mex. we hear of the collection of armed
whites, and finally that the trouble was avert
ed by the Selling, without shadow of law or
authority, the officials in two parishes and
putting them in Jail! Do these desperadoes
who are now plunging the South into state
of anarchy, imagine that any man Of average
sense can come to any other conclusion than
that they themselves were the instigators of
the trouble and started these lying rumors to
cover their acts of violence in Selling and
putting the officers of two parishes in jail?
Is that much Of an insurrection which allows

IT appears that the recent revolutionary
outbreak in Italy is to be attributed to the
Mazzinians, and that the leader in the move
ment was Laffi, of the famous Roman trium-
virate of 1S49. Content with the established
order of things seems quite impossible to the
italian conspirators, and they appear quite

of Italy as they were to drive out the Haps-

which is large, and of much value, has been
injured by frosts. The business is immense,
the pickers numbering several hundreds. They

towns of Cherryfeld, Deblois and Columbia.
The owners of the land now receive one-fourth
of cent per quart for all picked, the tariff be-
ing paing by owners of the Canning Works at
Jonesport, Millbridge and other points, The
income to land proprietors ranges from 81 to
500 per day. The pickers receive six to seven
cents per quart. Probably three hundred BUSH
els per day are moved from the Plains to the
several canning establishments. One hundred
tents and camps are occupied by pickers on the
grounds. Whole families camp there the en-

earn two and three dollars per day each. On

DIR. SCHENCk'S
Pulmonic Syrup. Sea Weed Tonic, and
Mandrake Pills.

These medicines have undoubtedly performed more
cures OF Consumption than any other remedy known
to the American public. They are compounded of
vegetable ingredients, and contain nothing which can
be injurious to the human constitution.
Other remedies advertised as cures for Consump-
ton, probably contain opium, which is somewhat
dangerous drug in all cases, and if taken freely by
consumptive patients, it must do great injury; for
its tendency is to confne the morbid matter In the
BILE.
Schenck's Pulmonic Syrup is warranted not to
contain particle OF opium: 1t is composed Of pow
erful but harmless herbs, which act on the lungs,
liver, stomach and blood, and thus correct all NOR
bid secret0us and expe all the diseased matter from
the body. These are the only means by which Con-
sumption can be cured, and as Schsnck's Pulmonic
Syrup, Sea Weed Tonic, and Mandrake Pills are the
only medicines which operate in this way it is obvi-
GUS they are the only genuine cure for Pulmonary
Consumption. Each bottle of this invaluable medi-
cine is accompanied by full directions.

CONTAMINATION. Joshua Herrick died in
Alfred Sunday, aged 50 years. Mr. Herrick
was a native of Beverly, Mass, and moved to
this state when but youth. For some time
he was superintendent of the cotton mills in

residence in York county, and was collector of
Kennebunk from 1929 to 1S41. In IS42 he was
elected to Congress, serving one term. He
