An effort was made to deny the paternity
of the 3-year-old child Clara, but some
vigorous prodding blythe prosecution broke

Whore Shall the Loss Fall?

EDS. RECoRD-UNIoN The bill introduced
into the Legislature to relieve the County
Treasures from loss arising from the a.
D. January embezzlements is causing some
discussion pro and con concerning the mat
ter 1t seems TO me that the case is a very
clear one, and requires only practical con-
sideration to convince of the justice OF the
bill introduced. The. money was left in
what was considered the very safest place,
viz: in the State Treasurer's Office. Sup
pose County Treasurer goes to the capital
TO make his settlement with, say, $4,000.
He goes first TO the State Treasurer, depOs-
its the money, then to the Controller, who
is nor able &c &c prepare the papers the same
dav, and consequently the money is left
over night with the State Treasurer. The
next morning our County Treasurer is in
formed that some one in the State Treas
urer's office, an employee of the State, has
gambled the money of. Should not, in
such a case, the State protect the County
Treasurer? The difference between this
case, and those who now apply for relief, is
simply in the length of time the money is
permitted to remain in the treasury. One
is for twelve hours, and the other for say
three months. One for settlement at the
time; the other on account of next settle
ment. In both cases money was left with
the State Treasurer. Again: Was the iden-
teal money taken in the January case
which had been left by County Treas
urers ON account of the next settle
ment? In every instance the Treasur-
ers either deposited coin or the State Con-
troller's warrants. 1t is an open secret that
the money gambed off by young January
was mostly gold notes and currency. 1t
would be absurd to believe that the $4,000
or 81, 900 gambled off in San Francisco was
carried down there by him in coin.
There can be no reasonable doubt but
currency and gold notes which were in the
State Treasury vault were stolen, and re-
placed by money that the State Treasurer
had received from the County Treasures
on account Of settlements yet to be made.
In one case, at least, not dollar in money
was deposited by the County Treasurer,
but warrants were surrendered to the State
Treasurer who received them on account
of next settlement. 1t is my opinion that
County Treasures and their bondsmen
should not suffer because the State Treas
ury was not properly guarded by checks.

General Edward T. Smith, e linsal descend
ant o: "ParsOn" Smith 81 Yesterday morning,
nome ,OnUs-ss IarRR RRprii 2ist, aged n years.
Gen. Smith had been q partial invalid for
many years in consequences OF disease OF the
heart His confirmed habits of industry would
not allow him to be an idle spectator Of what
was going on about him, and he has always
been busy about the affairs of the farm and the
other routine business Of an active life. Re-
Gently he suffered from the effects OF paraly-
tic shock, which confined him to his house for
several months.
Gen. Smith was the son Of Colonel John 7.
Smith of Gorham, Of distinguished ancestry,
who died in 1895, aged "a years; man who
was universally respected. His brother, the
late Wendall P. Smith, was once a resident Of
Portland, and was for many years conspicuous
in military circles and an influential member
OF the old Democratic party. Gen. Edward T.
Smith married Margaret Foster, daughter Of
the late William H. Foster of Gorhsm, who is
still kindly remembered by the Oldest citizens.
Mrs Smith and an only son, Capt. E. f.
Smith, are left to mourn the loss Of q worthy
and devoted husband and father.
Gen. Smith has always taken deep interest
in the affairs of Gorham. He was always pre-
sent at its town meetings and ready to take
any responsibility, and do his part for the well
fare OF his native town. Ne was an active
member of the First Parish and generous
contributor to the Congregational society. In
| social life his influence has always been on the
| right side. His example in favor OF temper
1 anoe and his influence in favor Of great moral
| questions have always beon commendable.
| Gen. Smith was by nature and education de-
| voted to the military, and when in the service
l OF the State was a rigid disciplinarian and
/ true soldier In the early history OF our State
militia in Cumberland county he bore an hon.
| orable and conspicuous part. and was popular
| amcng those who participated in our annual
| musters. He was independent in his political
| action, for although he had full confidence In
/ the principles of the Democratic party, he
| sometimes allowed his friendship, and other
| Just considerations, to influence his vote. No
| man owned him, for he was governed by his
| own convictions Of right. He was an intelli-
| gent, diligent and progressive farmer, and dRr-
ing his whole life walked between the handles
| of the plough.
He was man of kind heart and was highly
respected by his fellow townsmen. He never
| sought office or position, which he invariably
declined when offered him. Thus passes away
| another of the few remaining links, which
| have held us nearer to the people and events
| of earlier times We shall long remember the
dignity of character, and the commanding
manly presence of a fellow citizen and friend,
| who always had q great love and veneration
| for his native town of Gorham. CIVIs.
