Stewart and Dreamer.

Stewart, who was arrested here on suspicion
OF being concerned in the Bath murder, and
Moore, alias Dreamer, who has been employed
at the Preble House. were arrested in Bath
last fall for breaking in and stealing fish nets
and blankets from Albion X. Psrriss fish
house. But when the case came to trial the
writ, it was found, stated that the goods be-
longed to calvin" K. Paris, instead of Albion
X. Paris, and on this error the men were
discharged. A new writ was obtained after
Stewart was arrested in Portland They win

reporter for the PRESS hearing that when,
on former occasions, the engineers office of
the army was located in Boston, branch office
was kept in Portland with the valuable works
established here, made some inquiries yester-
day, and found that, with one exception, his
information was correct. Just before the war
Capt. Franklin-now Maj Gen. Franklin-was
the engineer, and Mr.. W. A. Goodwin-pres-
emit city civil engineer-was assistant. Gen.
"Baldy" Smith followed Franklin. Capt
Turnbull, now dead, followed, and he decided
to give up the branch office in Portland. This
was just as the war broke out, but before the
change could be effected, he, Turnbull, was or
dered off and the government appointed Mr..
W. A. Goodwin acting engineer in charge,
with headquarters at Boston, and Mr.. W. e.
Edwards assistant in charge of the branch Of
fee here. Since then the head Office has been
located at Portland. The reason was obvious
In the consolidated first and second lighthouse
districts there are 40 lights south and
west of Boston, embracing a distance
of 1876 miles, all of which lights are
easily accessible by rail. East of Bos-
ton to st. Croix, distance of 1927 miles,
tuoio arc - lSutcB d largo uuuuor VI WulCu
are accessible only by steamer. Almost all the
important lights begin with the lights on Isle of
Shoals, off Portsmouth, and include Hallway
Rock, Seguin, Matinicus and Monhegan. 1t
would, therefore, seem as if the engineers Of
fee should be located here, nearer the centre
of the district than Boston.
If Portland is abandoned, the important
works at Fort Scanned (where lanterns for the
lights are manufactured, and large portion of
the work used in constructing lighthouses is
made,) will be removed to Boston, thus throw
ing out of employment many worthy men who
reside here with their families. So important
are these works that Gen. Duane sends for
their products for his district at New York.
The tender, Myrtle, will also have to go.
1t would seem as if this matter was one that
came within the province of our Board Of
Trade. If that body should investigate the
matter and properly present the same to our
representatives in Congress, it is possible that
the unfortunate and unreasonable action of
the lighthouse board may be corrected.

WoOdfOrds,


The Woodfords Congregational church and
parish gave their pastor, Rev. S. Winchester
Adriance a reception at the church vestry
Wednesday evening, he having just returned
from his vacation. There was large num-
Der present. The social intercourse and good
feeling were most strikingly manifest every
one being in the best of spirits. The church
is in a prosperous condition, there being a
marked unanlmity between pastor and people;
united in heart and voice, seeking to bring
souls into the kingdom. Nearly fifty have
united with the church since January.
The vestry was trimmed with flowers, and
over the desk was the word "Come,'' which
was the subject of the pastors Sabbath morn
ing sermon. During the evening Miss Clara
B. Kimpall made speech of welcome; one OF
the lady members, in behalf of the church,
presente d the pastor with beautiful basket of
sweet peas, after which a bountiful supply OF
refreshments were served, the good time con-
tinuing until ten o'clock, when all went home
happy.

M Enrmer nnd the Tariff.

PrGtectionists' organs are wont to
dwell upon the great value Of protective
tariff TO the farmer, claiming that it af-
fords him "home market for his
produce. and enables him TO clOthe
himself and live more comfortably
than he could under a different
system Of taxation. The South
ern advocates Of protection have
taken up the refrain, and are continually
piping to the planters upon the beauties
Of the ''hOme market" Elsewhere in this
issue we present a complete REPUTATION of
the sOphistries of the protectiOnists
in an address delivered before
the Massachusetts State Board Of
Agriculture by Joseph Story Fay, Esq, Of
Boston. Mr.. Fay's address possesses ad-
ditiOnal interest from the fact that prior
to the war he was member Of the well
known firm of Padelford, Fay q Co, Of
this CITY. as well as Pres
ident of the Union Society, and
identified with various enterprises of pub
lie Importance. Mr.. Fay was an ardent
Wing and firm believer in the tenets Of
Henry Clay.
Twenty years study Of our peculiar
system Of taxation, developed since the
opening of the war, has con-
WINGED Mr.. Fay that protection works to
the detriment OF the farmer, and a careful
reading of his views as presented in his
address viii beget agreement with him
upon the part Of every clear
headed tiller of the soil. His
argument is succession of
sound premises and inevitable conclu-
siOns. and whoever reads it will be at no
loss to see wherein the remedy lies for the
ills which our agricultural interests suf-
fer at the hands Of protection. Mr.. Fay,
though, is not a radical reformef.
He favors a gradual but sure removal of
the burdens Of taxation until the load is
equitably adjusted, and in this proposal
he voices the sentiment Of every true
statesman and fair-minded citizen.

The railway companies Of the State will,
no doubt. present. a solid front in opposition
to the Rankin bill. The main features of
the bill are. first. that all railway cOmpa-
MES are required TO make a return to the
tax receivers of the counties in which
they have property Of all the property
they have in said counties, and to pay
taxes thereon just the same as in the case
Of individual tax payers; and, second, to
make a sworn return TO the Comptroller
General annually Of all their rolling
stock. The County Commissioners Of
the counties through which the
roads run are to notify the COmptrol-
Ter General annually Of their rate of tax
alton for county purposes, and the Comp
troIIer General is TO levy and collect the
tax on the rolling stock and to turn it
over to the proper county treasurers,
The railway companies will oppose the
bill because if passed it Will largely in
crease the amount of their taxes. We
should not be surprised, however,
if this bill, or a modification of
il. were to pass. Governor
Mcdaniel in his message favored some
such measure, and the growing tendency
is TO make the railways bear their full
share of the burdens of taxation. 1t is
said that railway passes are plentiful in
Atlanta, but there is probably no con-
nection between this fact and the Rankin
bill.

brought to the doors of Communicating
neighbors, and that they viii pay no more
for our products than for them. We even
know that Western produce goes to de-
press the value Of what we raise.
In spite of this, however. let our aim be
to extend our markets. while we tighten
the burdens of taxation, and thus cheaper
the cost of our living, and of production.
Let US approach the subject, not in the
spirit of partisanship or sectionalisH, but
as patriots, and intelligent, thinking men.
Let us try TO cast aside prejudice and
inherited notions and look at the things
around US by the light of facts, and
broaden our views, and endeavor to bring
if about that there shall be no favored
classes. but that we shall all stand on
the broad platform of equal rights, equal
burdens, equal privileges.
