in the United States. am not here to apollo
gize or to ask youripardon, but will ask your at
tention to the constitution and law and if in auy
respects or my council have violated that law,
you have your remedy. You say that majority
rule is the central principle of our govern
ment system. but should not the majority be
expressed in legal and constitutional man
ner? You are all aware that at the late cleo.
ton every effort was made on both sides to
secure majority, and that the fusion party
had majority of 1000 votes. challenge any
man, do not care how ardent Republican or
rabid Democrat, to take the returns, and if
there is any instance where we have not applied
the same rule to friend or foe, then you can
condemn us. I find tabulated returns where
GA towns have been rejected. Thirty-two were
Republican, 30 Democratic and 2 a tie. Does
this look like conspiracy? Does it look as if
the rule had not been applied properly?' Re

Answer-A person not citizen may be
elected constituted selectman so that his
official acts bind the town, and are valid SO far
as affects the public. Such alone would
be an officer de fdcto, and clothed with apparent
right his acts would bind the town. Dane vs.
Derby, 81 Maine, 95). An officer de tdcto is one
who comes into Office by color of legal appoint
ment or election. His acts in that capacity are
as valid as far as the public is concerned as the
acts of officers de jure. His title cannot be en-
quired into collaterally. (The people vs. Cook,
4 Selden. S9). The precise definition of an
officer de tdcto, observes Bigelow c. J., in
the Fitchburg Railroad Company VS.. Grand
Junction and Depot Co., l Allen, 557, is one
who comes In by the forms of law and acts
under commission, an election apparently
valid, but in consequence of some illegality in
capacity or want of qualification is incapable
of holding Office. Indeed, there is entire unan.
unity of opinion on this subject in all States
of the Union where the question has arisen, as
well as the courts of the United States but the
fact of alienage is not allowed to be proved.
This was determined in the Frenchville case
ga Maine, 1897 where it was shown that the
clerk was an alien who could neither read nor
write the English language, where almost
every conceivable irregularitY existed. Yet
evidence outside of the returns was held mad
missible, nor would such fact have any effect
if it appeared in any but the returns itself.
Question-If ballot has a distinguishing
mark, in the judgment of the governor and
council such as would make it illegal under the
statute, have they authority to disregard it in
their entertainment of what persons appear to
be elected, where it appears by official returns
of the officers of the town such vote was re-
ceived by the selectmen subject to their objec-
ton, and its legality referred to the governor
and council for decision?
Answer-The presiding officers are to deter
mine whether the ballot offered has a dIstin-
guishizg mark or figure So that. if rejected, the
voter may procure a ballot if he chooses, to
which no exception can be taken; but if
the ballots have distinguishing marks or
figures it is no part of the duty of the

Here are some words Of sarcastic
advice from Mark Twain which are
often put into an editors head by mat
tiers not wholly unconnecled with the
contents OF his leiter-box: "DOn't
write too plainly; it is sign Of plebe-
rian origin. Scrawl your articles with
your eyes shut, and make every word
as illegible as you can. Avoid all
paiustaking with proper names. We
know the full name Of every man, or
woman, and child in the United States,
and the merest hint is sufficient. For
instance, If you write a character
somewhat like a drunken figure eight
and then draw a wavy line, we know
at once that you mean Samuel Nor
rison,' even lhoJgh you think you
may mean Iemuel Messenger.

IL pays to feed literally cows that
are giving milk. Butter is high, and
now is the time TO feed profiiably.
Every COW should be made to produce
as much butter rs possible. When
ever butter is twenty cents per pound
or more, there Is money in the dairy
business, and the man who feeds most
literally and judiciously, will make
the greatest profit. Meal, both cotton
seed and corn, roots, pumpkins and
fodder corn should all come in for
share Of attention as profitable food
for dairy cows. Whatever kinds of
food are used, the cows should have
that they can proftably turn into

themselves il they can afford not to
buy grain to feed cows when butter is
as high as it is at present.

is given Of the cause Of recent acct.

Of Kibworth, the engineer thinking
something was the matter with his
engine. Examination showed the 10.

gineer applied steam, but instead Of
running forward the train was backed,
and the engineer did not notice the

had returned to Kibworth Station,
where IL ran into a freight train, but
not before the engineer had applied
the Westinghouse brake, and 50 pre-
vented any more damage than the
wounding of four or five passengers.

appeared from investigation that none
