Every year il becomes more and more evil
dent that Maine is destined to become the
great summer resort of New England. Even
now her summer visitors are worth more to
her than any crop she raises, except, per-
haps, the hay crops. Her streams and rivers
with stately forests or green fields, and filed
with the spotted trout or gamy bass,
her charming landscapes and pure,
bracing atmosphere have a charm and en-
ticement for the summer tourist which no
other New England State can furnish. Every
season the railroads of tine State reap oh
harvest while the hotels and people in the
vicinity Of the resorts are equally as well
favored. From Boston alone there were
sold last year =, OPS round trip tickets to the
different fishing localities in the State of
Maine reached by these two roads and their
connections For these tickets was paid the
large sum of S23 400. These travellers spent
among the people of the State for hotel ex-
penses, etc. at least s75 each on the average
during their whole trip. This gives an ag-
gregate spent by these visitors from Boston
and neighboring towns Of sl55,625 This
being added to the amount paid to the rail
roads. etc, in which the Maine people are
interested as stockholders, gives a total of
Sl19.0s The coming season promises to
the history of summer travel in Maine.

Work OF the Committees.
OK REFORM School.

The committee considered the proposition
making changes in the Law in re gard to the
Reform School. Mr.. Thomas q. Haskell
appeared in favor of his bill which is before
the committee. Mr.. HsskeIrs bill prevents
the sending of boys for high crimes: pro-
vIdes for the maintenance of a mechanical
school to enable the boys to be instructed in
mechanical trades; requires the trustees to
establish rules for the direction Of the Of
hcers and government of inmates, specifying
the punishment on the boys, which rules
shall be approved by the Gov ernor and coun-
Gil; and requires the superintendent to keep
record Of all punishments inflicted. which
shall be open to public inspection. 1t also
provides for the classifying of the bows for
outdoor exercise and that each boy shall
have bis own clothing. Solitary confine.
ment Is prohibited, excepting under the rules
Of trustees, and when inflicted shall be in
suitable rooms with plenty Of food. A board
OF visitors is provided for, consisting of two
ladies and two gentlemen. who shall report
to the Governor and council. J. X Earring
ton, superintendent of the school appeared
in opposition.
OS finance
The proposition re-imbursing towns for
taxes paid was considered. The constitution
provides that valuation shall be made every
ten years No valuation commission was as
pointed in 1879, consequently a new valua-
ton was not made for 1880. The legisIa-
ture decided that the valuation for the last
decay should be the valuation for 1885, Un-
der the new valuation of the valuation COM
mission reported in 1881, certain towns were
shown to have overpaid iD 1881 nearly $50
900 and other towns to have undergrad some
$4,000. Representative Smith of Stockton
appeared for Stockton, Representative Park
er Spoford and Senator McAllister for
Bucksport, Mr.. Stetson for Damariseo,ta,
and Representative Luce for New Vineyard
Each of these towns claimed that they
should be reimbursed for taxes overpaid.
The committee came to no decision. Wash
ingt0n Plantation and Fairfield asked for
reduction of their valuation, the latter town
on account of the destructive fires which
have ragged there. The committee took no
vote this matter.
