Monmouth Locals.

The Reform Clubs of this town, are doing an eff
fcient work, in discouraging the liquor traffic in
this section There has been three organized in
this town within year and half. One at South
Monmouth was organized little over year ago,
but tor want of life, (Which it might have had if
its members had had some one to stir them up
thoroughly to the necessity of the work. il has al
most become extinct. Then there was another
organized at North Monmouth that has had more
to keep it living, it is situated between the two
busy villages OF Monmouth Centre and Winthrop /;
but the liyeest one is at the Centre this numbers
nearly three hundred, which has been the growth
OF only about a year. Benjamin L. Walker of
Bangor, gave lecture few nights ago with good
results. This club holds its meetings once, and
sometimes twice week.
At the present time politics and the
centennial are the all absorbing topics. In
politics the spirit is the same at the last State
election, when the gallant republicans of this town
rolled up good large majority Of one hundred
and fifty nine. If the gallant republicans all
over the Union only do their share of the work
that devolves upon them, there will be no danger
of Tiden x ii endi ioks b, 1g elected at the polls
next Tuesday.
Mr. y. +. Prescott, one of the most thrifty and
energetic farmers of this town, has one of the fin
est young orchards in this vicinity. There are
about ten acres in the lot, and he has about four
hundred of the incest and thrftiest growing trees
as any one could ask for.
The apple crop a total failure in this sec
ton this year. the Old orchardsts barely raising
enough for their own use. The trees blossomed
very full in the spring but the caterpillars want
ed life and the thing could be used but
once the farmers had to go without. Some ten
years ago the catterpillars made sad work for two
years, and then disappeared until last year, when
they made their appearance again. 1t is thought
by many in this vicinity that this is the last year
for them. Whether it is or not remains TO be
seen but 1t is hoped that they will not be seen
again never.
The Academy is under the direction of VIM.
Ham. lie is a very good teacher, but as this is
the fall of the year there is not very large at
tendance.
The moccasin factory has tecn running all the
season with their usual number of hands.
The town fam was held the 18th of last month.
1t was the best that Monmouth has ever held,
everyone seeming to take their due share Of in
teres in having all pass of smoothly, and for one
good thing the people deserve to be praised, for
that Is that there was no liquor of any sort sold
on the grounds, even new cider was prohibited.
How does that sound for honesty and reform
