We're anxious that the arguments should be

Drummond should make the first argument

everything has been waiting for the argument
now being printed. The case seems to have
been unnecessarily delayed. Since the suit wa,
brought, thirty-three thousand 1888 000) have
accumulated in the treasury of the railroad
twenty-five thousand ($25,000) of which sun

vaults of the bank. From the semi-annua
rental due in May ten or eleven thousand dol

Its influence against the Republicans. Not
many weeks ago it was advising the Democrats

candidates. The election of Mr.. Carlisle to the

pouring hot shot into the ranks of its former
allies, and with deadly effect. Look at the
present political situation in this State' asks

The general tendency throughout the State
for some years past, as shown by the Statistics
of Maine recently issued, has been toward the
reduction of county and municipal debts. Last
week mention was made of the report of the
Treasurer of Washington county, which shows
no liabilities and a cash balance on hand of
nearly $4,000. The financial statement of
Aroostook County for 1888, soon to be publish
ed, will show an excess of resources of over
$1,000, against an excess of liabilities in 1882, of
about $1,000. Gain during the year, $4,000.
Waldo county, on the other hand, has incurred
debt of 1854 during the past year, with the
certainty of further increase unless stop is
put to existing abuses
