Lewiston and Auburn were treated to
lively contests New Years day between the
street car companies and the municipal au-
thoritles. The car companies insisted on
clearing off the snow from their tracks with
scraper and the authorities insisted on
pushing 1t back with snowplow, and the
citizens stood around and enjoyed the sport.
Victory finally perched upon the scraper.

A Safeguard.

The fatal rapidity with which slight
Colds and Coughs frequently develop
into the gravest maladies of the throat
and lungs, is consideration which should
iimpel every prudent person to keep at
hand, as household remedy, bottle of
AYERS CHERRY PICTORIAL.
Nothing else gives such immediate relief
and works SO sure cure in all affections
of this class. That eminent physician,
Prof. F. Sweetzer, of the Maine Medical
School, Brunswick, Me-, says
"Medical science has produced no other ano-
dyne expectorant SO good as AYERS CHERRY
PEcToRAL.. 1t is invaluable for diseases of the
throat and lungs"
The same opinion is expressed by the
well-Anown DR.. L. j. Addison, of Chicago,
ILL.,, who says
81 have never found, in thirty-ive years of
continuous study and practice of medicine, any
preparation of so great value as AYER's CHERRY
PICTORIAL, for treatment of diseases of the
throat and lungs. 1t not only breaks up colds
and cures severe coughs, but is more effective
than anything else in relieving even the most
serious bronchial and pulmonary affections

The moral aspect of dancing is under dis
cussion in the town of Dexter in this State
The discussion originated in peculiar way.
The selectmen of the town recently laid a
new floor in the town hall, the old one having
been worn so badly that local paper says it
was difficult for anyone TO walk across it
without sticking splinter into his heel.
The new floor was apparently an excellent
one and was regarded with great satisfaction
until some one, either innocently or with
malice, suggested that it was good floor to
dance on. Since this unfortunate remark
there has been warm discussion as to the
morality of dancing and the propriety of al
lowing ii on the new floor.

Friends of the proposition for the State of
New York to purchase the Adirondack will
derness think they have devised scheme to
compel the landholders to sell at reasonable
price. Their plan is to get the Legislature TO
pass law prohibiting future grants of frap-
ehises or rightof way to corporations or indi-
vidualS, and another to prevent the damming
OF water courses which is necessary to enable
the lumbermen to carry on their operations.
With these two laws it is believed the prop
erty will become go proitless that the owners
will be glad to sell at any price they can get.

Mr.. Herbert Blake, the Hallowell lawyer
who has brought suit against the treasurers
Of a large number of Maine corporations, to
recover the penalty for neglecting to publish
statements of the condition of the corpo-
rations may possibly be actuated purely by
regard for the public welfare. The general
opinion, however, is likely to be that Mr..
Blake is actuated by no higher motive than
to put money into his own pocket. If he re-
covers the penalties which he sues for he
will be thousands of dollars richer than he
is to-day, and the delinquent treasurers SO
much poorer, as the penalty is a personal
one. There are good many legal questions
TO be decided before Mr.. Blake gets his
money, and it is by no means certain that
they will be decided in his favor.

The counsel in the legal tender case which
is to come before the Supreme Court this
month have decided to submit it without
argument. Gen. Butler, who claims that the
government has the right to issue legal ten
der notes in time of peace, while ago was
very anxious to be heard, but recently his
zeal has cooled and he was very willing that
the case should be submitted without -argu-
ment. 1t is surmised that, the Greenback
party being no longer prominent factor in
politics, the General is not anxious to be
known as a Greenbacker. Fears are ex-
pressed, how well grounded does not APP
pear, that the court may decide the case on
some technical point and leave the main
question unsettled.

Cherry PICTORIAL

Is not new claimant for popular conf
dence, but a medicine which is to-day
saving the lives of the third generation
who have come into being since it was
first offered to the public.
There is not household in which this
invaluable remedy has once been in
troduced where its use has ever been
abandoned, and there is not person
who has ever given it a proper trial
for any throat or lung disease suscep-
tible of cure, who has not been made
well by it.
AYERS CHERRY PICTORIAL has,
in numberless instances, cured obstinate
cases of chronic Bronchitis, Larnygitis,
and even acute Pneumonia, and has
saved many patients in the earlier stages
of Pulmonary Consumption. 1t is q
medicine that only requires to be taken in
small doses, is pleasant to the taste, and Is
needed in every house where there are
children, as there is nothing SO good as
AYERS CHERRY PICTORIAL for treat
ment of Group and Whooping Cough.
These are all plain facts, which can be
verified by anybody, and should be re-
membered by everybody.

Apropos the slanderous story abou, labor in
these Islands, going the rounds OF the Idaho
and other American papers, Mr. H. VI. Moore
writes to the State Republic, Of Colorado
Springs, as follows
Having read an article in the Denver Trib.
une Of July 10th, headed Americans in Bond.
sgeinthe Sandwich Islands, and being somewhat
posted in the Hawaiian statistics through a
residence Of FIVE years in the kingdom, I seek
through the Republic TO state few facts in re-
gard to matters spoken Of in the Tribune article.
"To begin with, it is stated that there are
nearly ago, 600 souls held in bondage in the
Islands. This is certainly great error as there
are not more than 10000 people in the entire
kingdom. There are aboIt 1900 natives,
probably 10000 Americans and Europeans
and the balance is divided among Chinese and
natives Of various countries.
For two years was engaged in one Of the
largest business houses in Honolulu. that Of
Castle & Cooke, they being plantation agents
and owners. | had good opportunities TO gain
experience and knowledge that could not have
got otherwise. As for shipping plantation,
help, have been on hand when Cinnamon and
South Sea Islanders were engaged and posi-
lively know that as ignorant as they are, they
thoroughly understood their contracts before
going to work.
"Chnamen seldom work in the field more than
three years when they start to rice planting OF
enter some kind Of business for themselves
This they could not do II held in bondage as
stated. South Sea Islanders are returned to
their native country in three years from the time
they arrive in Hawaii As for Americans work
ing in the field, i, is very seldom they can be
found. have brother now in the West who,
when he first wen, to Hawaii, was engaged as
luna, or, as the author Of the Tribune article
would call him, boss" for some time. His
business was to take charge ola gang ofield hands
and see that they performed the work laid out
for them. He never had to carry pistol OF
club, and do otthinkits common occurrence
for lunas to do So.
"ln regard to labor living--I have sold and
shipped thousands Of pounds Of salmon, meat
and crackers for various plantations--I will not
claim the best was purchased, bu, will say it
had to be good, as poor was no, received. Mr..
c. K Bishop, the banker, and owner Of the
plantation particularly spoken of, is not and
never was minister, nor is Mr.. c. p. Jones;
they are both members Of wha. is known there
as the Fort-St Congregational church and MI
Jones is a merchant representing Boston house
known as c. Brewer & Co. am surprised at
the way it is claimed the help has to quarter on
the b. & J. plantation as in my stay and travels
in the country never heard Of such an outrage,
and truly believe that il such is the case the
owners are ignorant Of the fact as they would
not tolerate such doings. do not write this
because Of any interest have there, for am
entirely separated from the country or its inter
ests Hoping you will give this public notice,
! am yours, very truly.
