We had intended to let this matter
rest for awhile yet, as the people have
not fairly recovered from last falls

now being said about the Governor.

toned in connection with the Treasu.
ryship, and st. Paul correspondent OF
the Douglas County Ne,os, published at
Alexandria, has wantonly attacked Col.
Pfander, the present incumbent, in an
issue of that paper Jan. 30th, it becomes
our duty to say few words at this time.
But to the article referred to:
GAS soon as it was known that the
trick was exposed by the News the
great nonenity that now occupies the
State Treasurer's office hied himself to
his beloved constituents to see how the
dear people felt about his being again a
candidate for denomination. am re.
liably informed that the people of his
own county will have no more of him.
He is neither warm nor cold and hence
they will spue him from their mouths,
and if necessary take up an ADLER and
better man from their own midst. :"
The article was no doubt written by
Capt. A. A. Brown, a member of the
present Senate, and refers to Mr.. Pf@n-
der's last visit to this place. This is
the first intimation that the people of
this State ever had that Col. Pfmnder
was 'nonenity'' in the Treasurer's
Office. They had always supposed, and
with abundant reason too, that he
managed the affairs Of the Office in 4
prompt and business like manner, and
we have yet to hear the first word
of complaint from an official source.
His last visit to this city was wholly
of a private nature and had nothing to
do with politics whatever. The Col.
knows too we'll how "his beloved con-
stituents" Of this county and vicinity
feel in regard to his being again can.

be wholly unnecessary for him to in
terview them on that subject. The
other vile insinuations of the enlight.
ened correspondent of the Meas are be.
meath our notice. Col. Pfmnder is to.
day the unanimous choice of the people
of Brown county and vicinity, and
should the Republicans in convention
assembled again see fit to honor one Of
our citizens with the Office of State
Treasurer no other than VIM. Pf@nder
will be presented.

handsomely supported by Craft, Cham

There has been SO much going ON
around here this week we have not
had time to write the news. Between
weddings, lectures, spelling schools,
lyceums, &C., we have been kept busy
to keep up to all that was going on
and enjoy our share of them.
The Albion boys played regular
game of base ball Jan. 2Sth. Don't

The last excitement at iberia is that
the graveyard has been robbed of one
of its most beautiful and costly monu.

the memory Of two sons Of Omer More
house. One Of them persisted in the
big snow storm Of 1872. This act Of
despoiling the grave was not commit

ed! Every man who is familiar with
the facts knows that strong drink In

more than anything else. II this is
not 50 I would like to see it denied.
Now for the lesson. During the
financial crisis the people of Maine
have suffered less than those of any
other State. Trade has been dull there
as in all other places, still the number
Of failures among business men has
been less in proportion to their numb
ers than many other State; and the
masses of the people have suffered less
for lack of employment than the same
classes in other parts of the country.
There must be reason for this; and it
is not far of. a few simple examples
will illustrate the case and indicate
the reason. The example is that Of a
laborer with family. He rented q
house; but poorly furnished it. The
rent was not always paid. The wife
was scantily clad and constantly wore
a troubled anxious face. The furniture
was poor and out of repair. Much
time was lost from work by reason of
too many so called ''good times" At
length however, the liquor traffic was
put under the ban of this law and temp.
tati0n removed. Our laborer became
a sober and steady worker, and trusted
man. With his savings he improved
his material condition; and soon there
was great change in his family ap.
pearance and life. 1t is such changes
as this which have occurred in thous-
ands of cases all over the State that
render hard times easier in Maine than
in any other State. Her workingmen
have steadily and constantly improved
their condition of late years, They do
more work, save more and have more
to spend for their material advance.
ment. Take another example. Greedy
in Colorado is a city of three Thousand
souls. It has no police force. In two
years only seven dollars were used out
of the poor fund. This is a temperance
town. Here is one more example. Vine.
land, n. ]. has a population of ten
thousand. AS there is no liquor traffic
and no saloons there is no revenue
from licenses from them. The poor
tax is from four to six hundred per
annum. Per contra; Moline, Ill. Of
seven thousand people has a revenue
from licenses Of five thousand per an
mum. The poor tax is from ten to
twelve thousand. The lesson which
every tax payer should study, is obyi.
Gus. Men who coddle their vices must
not burden the community with them.
Those who cry hard times had better
study their own relation to them be.
fore complaining too loudly.

Respectfully,
A. ToREEY, Supt.

This plan is altogether the most practical,
feasible and thorough of any yet proposed.
If not this, some effective plan should be
adopted and put into operation with the least
possible delay. The city cannot afford to
longer delay work which is demanded by
every consideration of justice, and by strong
considerations of expediency.
