LINCOLN.
On Monday last two little boys, Harold Lit
tlefeld and Fred Dearborn, each aged about
ten years, while skating en- MatGanawcook
stream, broke through the ice and would have
been drowned but for the fortunate presence
of two Indians in the vicinity, Joseph Dana
and Tomah Sabatis, the former over 70 years
and the latter over 60 years of age, who
plunged into the water, which was some ten
or twelve feet deep, and succeeded in rescuing
them, after. however, the Littlefield boy bad
sunk for the third time. He was wholly un-
conscious when taken from the water, but was

Current Comment.
Free Raw Materials.


A free trade meeting was held in Now York,
Thursday evening, which was addressed by
Hon. d. A. Wells, Mr.. Beecher and Mr..
Watterson of the Louisville Journal. Resolu-
tions were adopted in favor Of free raw matsri-
als-such as wool, lumber, lime, potatoes,
hay, etc, and large reduction of duties ON all
manufactured goods. We imagine that this
attempt to put Maine producers who expend
labor in producing wool, lumber, lime, pota-
toes, hay, etc., into unrestricted competition
with Canadians and other foreigners who pro-
duce these identical articles with cheaper cost
labor, would be likely to lsad such producers
to inquire why their labor isn't as deserving OF
reasonable protection as the labor Of those eu-
ployed in converting their products into othsr
uses. Nothing is strictly raw material ex-
cept matter in a state of nature before human
labor has been employed to adapt it TO mans
use. Such raw materials are now free.
Too Old TO Reform.
[Biddeford Journal
The Democratic papers say the elections
have taught them that their party cannot af-
ford TO blunder. Oh but it Is of little use to
take lessons in etiquette after ones habits are
formed. Twenty-Five years of stupid blundsr-
ing is e. cd enough warrant that the poor old
party will go right on repeating itself to the
end OF the chapter.
