Soldiers and Sailors Association

The executive committee of the Soldiers
and Sailors Association held a meeting at the
Falmouth last evening. Nearly all the mem
bers of the committee were present. among
whom were Gen. Beal, Col. Robbie. Gen. John
NJ. Brown and others.
The committee, after some discussion, on
motion of Gen. Brown, decided unanimously
to extend an invitation to President Garfield
through Gen. Chamberlain, president of the
association, to be present at the general re-
union of Maine veterans, to take place in this
State some time during the coming summer
probably in the month of August. 1t was also
decided to ask the Legislature and Governor
and Council to unite with the association in
extending the invitation, and to make the
President the guest of the State
1t may be of interest to the veterans to know
that the circulars sent out to all parts of the
State, asking for an expression of opinion
from the veterans as to the feasibility of hold
ing reunion and exhibiting the flags; also as
to the place preferred for holding the reunion:
have been quite generally answered. Express
| sions of opinions, either favoroble or other
wise, have been received from between six and
seven hundred veterans, who are unanimous
| in the desire to hold reunion. About seven
| ty of the number heard from are opposed to
| the exhibition of the flags, the remainder
| favor it. This very favorable expression is of
| particular importance, since it comes from all
parts of the State, and is the unparalleled
| opinion of the soldiers.
Several places have been designated by the
| sgners of the circulars, at which to hold the
| reunion. Among them are Augusta, Portland
Bangor, Rockland, and Lewiston-each having
its followers being the most desirable place
to hold the Notification, though Portland has a
| larger number than Ell Their of the Others
1t is very desirable that the committee
should get as full and free expressions from
the veterans as possible and it is hoped that
the many veterans, who have not signed the
circulars, will do so, and send them in as rap
idly as they can.

Maine Ship 0 wners Association.

At meeting of the members of the Maine
Shipowners and Shipmasters Association the
following address was adopted, which is to be
sent to the shipowners and shipmasters of this
State.
To the ,Shipo,gners and Shipnaasters of Maine.
At meeting of the members of the Maine
Legislature representing the cities and towns
interested in navigation, holden on the 18th
day of February, 1881, it was voted to obtain
a charter at the present session of the Legisla-
ture for the organization of Il Maine Ship
owners and Shipmasters Association. Pur
suant to said vote charter has been applied
for the incorporation of which comprises manv
of the leading shipowners and shipmasters of
the State. Under this charter an organization
will be completed at Augusta on the 18th day
of March inst, at o'clock p. M, at the State
House. The object of the association will be
and shipmasters and to promote the interest of
navigation. One of the immediate OBJ
jects in view will be in testing the constitu-
tionality of the He'll Gate pilot law which is
an unjust charge upon our coasting trade. All
other great interests in our country are organ
lied. With the combined efforts of our ship
ping interests a power would be exerted
many of the burdens imposed upon our COM
MERGE and secure just and equal laws for this
great national interest. Your are cordially in
vited to attend said meeting. If unable to do
so, signify by letter to the undersigned
whether you wish to be entered upon the list
as desiring to become a member. 1t may be
possible that we have omitted to notify some
parties interested in your vicinity. You will,
therefore please extend this invitation to all
SUCH
Per order,
B. B. THATCHER, Secretary

identified.


Yesterday morning Mr.. M. M. Moulton of
Scarboro' saw the notice of dead body found,
in his morning paper, and thinking the de-
scription answered that of his brother, visited
the city tomb and identified the remains as
those of his brother, E. G.. Moulton, resident
q Sterling street, Boston. Deceased came to
Portland on the Boston steamer Saturday, and
visited his brother in Scarboro'. He left Scar
boro' Tuesday. The brother suspected nothing
out of the way in him, and supposed that he
was going back to his home. Mr.. Moulton
was in comfortable circumstances, and if his
death was the result Of suicide, no motive for
the act is known. He leaves widow, daugh-
ter, and son about fifteen years of age A
telegram was sent TO his family and some of
them were expected last evening An answer
to the telegram, however, was received by
Coroner Gould late in the afternoon request
ing that the body be sent to Boston, and the
Coroner had it properly dressed and encofined
and forwarded it last night by Pullman.

A Protest from Neal Dow.

General Neal Dow has filed the following
protest with the county commissioners
AS one of the taxpayers Of Cumberland
county, 1 most respectfully but earnestly pro-
test against the payment from the county treas
ury of the bills purporting to be for faithful
services rendered by j. S. Turkey, Cyrus T
Parker, Charles G. Chase and Thomas Deehan,
deputy sheriffs.
The law under which they were appointed,
requires them diligently and faithfully to in
quire into all violations of law, etc., and par
ticularly the laws against the illegal sale of in
toxicating liquors and the keeping of drinking
houses and tippling shops 1t is a common ru-
NOR, which fully believe, that the said depu-
ty sheriffs have not discharged their duty ac-
cording to law, nor in any way answered to
the requirements of the statute. and that they
are in no way entitled to demand payment
from the county
The course which will be taken by the COM
missioners is not yet decided. but it is probable
that they will appoint hearing at which the
case may be stated on each side at length.

Attention Republicans.

The Importance of this election to you is
great. The enemy are busy at work, hoping
through Republican apathy to carry four wards
on Monday. Should they accomplish their
purpose they will re-dstrict the wards and con-
troll the government for the next ten years.
The kind of government they would give
can be seen by perusing the accounts of the
caucuses in wards l, 2 and 4, together with the
names of the men nominated. Let us Just
turn out and nip their plan in the bud.
