that question, at present, to our own
or to our readers satisfaction, we
consider it due to the enterprise of
the Chinese to say that many of their
methods are so eminently successful
in their results that other nationali-
ties would consult their own interests
by taking leaf or two out of Johns
book; and it is also due to the in.
terests of civilized society to lay
before the public a few of the facts
and causes that operate against the
success of the white mans enter
prises. And first among the ele-
ments of Chinese success is their
cohesion as people. Their busi-
ness with other races is only to secure
patronage; while, in dispensing their
custom, they take care to give the
preference to their own countrymen.
When failure occurs, the creditors
of the broken down firm are care
fully excluded from the Chinese
ranks. 1t is almost invariably the
white merchant that gets stuck"
The insuperable difficulties thst meet
the non-Chinese creditors of Chinese
insolvents afford presumptive evil
dence of collusion among them for
the purpose of fleeing those outside
of the Celestial ring. Instead of
heavily stocked establishments,
which indulgent creditors viewed
as good collateral security for ac-
commodation, imposing but beggarly
arrays of empty boxes have been
discovered. Traders who demand
immunity from payment of their
lawful debts owing to business re-
verses over which they claim to have
had no control, are expected to make
good their pleas by showing their
accounts to all whom they may con-
Germ. The Chinaman is practically
exempt from this very mild restric-
ton, by keeping accounts in his
own awful hieroglyphics.
A large share of the patronage of
white families is dispensed in Chi
nese stores to the detriment of other
traders interests. The pale faced
races are expected to support the
institutions of civilized society with
both time and money. Collectors
of funds for religious and benevo-
lent purposes count on liberal contri-
buttons from all nationalities except
from the Chinese. Exempt from
contributions to civilized institutions,
aud exempt from the plainest re-
quirements of civilized life in modes
of living, the Chinese merchant un.
dersells his rival and thus COM
mands the patronage of the very
families who, if it were not for the
advantages of civilized institutions,
would not remain in the Kingdom
day. Many buyers who patronize
cheapness forget that cheapness is
too often procured at the expense of
their existence as members of their
own society. Our white citizens
who go shopping on the cheap basis
among Chinese stores, forget that
they are paying premiums on hide
Gus architecture and pestilential
closes, into which they never would
enter as visitors. Money is power,
aud white families whose custom
adds to the sum total of Mongolian
power forget that they are adding
just so much to the force that is
steadily but surely, if not soon
counteracted, pressing them and
their kin to the wall; and the newt
able tendency of which is to drive
them from the Kingdom.

The Old Fort Kent Block House

The veteran Maj. Dickey, Representative
from Fort Kent, is very much interested in
having the Legislature purchase the old
block house in his town. which, as is known,
was named in honor of Gov Kent. The
Major thus expressed himself TO a Portland
Press reporter in relation to the matter
Il want to have it saved as a historical
relic OF the memorable Msdawa>ks war for

house. 1t was named after Gov. Kent Ii is
situated at the mouth and west side of Fish
river. at the junction of Fish river with the
ST. John river, on a high elevation of land
known as Horseback" There are about
ten acres of land on which it is situated, in
the village of Fort Kent. In 1857 the United
States relinquished all its right and Interest
in it to the State of Maine. The State subse-
quently sold it through their land agent, Noah

after stating that it is desirable that all land
marks concerning the past history of this
country should be preserved TO posterity
adopted resolve, which was as follows:
That the members of the Bangor Histori-
cal Society respectfully ask the Legislature
OF Maine to make suitable appropriation for
the purpose of repairing the old block house
at Fort Kent"

Major Dickey, something about the erection
OF this block house, and the Madswaska war
You see State troops went from the capital
and marched for the seat of war. Portions of
them were quartered at Masardis through the
winter. Another portion of the same troops
marched through the wilderness until they
reached within five miles of Fort Kent. Here
they quartered for the winter. In the mean
time the United States sent regular troops
through to Fort Kent. There was regiment
of them about 1000 strong. They were under
the command of Gen. Windsor, who had
charge of the rebel prison at Andersonville
during the late war. His quartermaster was
Maj. Donellson. Gen. Joe Hooker, who
distinguished himself during the rebellion
in fighting the battle above the clouds
at Lookout Mountain. was a lieutenant
The next summer, 1912, the legislature had
special session, called by Gov. Fairfield,
and the legislature agreed to accept of a GER
tain stipulation from the United States, to
take the St. John and st. Francis rivers as

Probably fatal illness of Senator Bridges
has again seriously complicated the affairs
here and made very uncertrin the date when
the vote can be taken on the United States
senatorship. An effort will be made by the
democrats to induce the senator to resign
The district is overwhelmingly democratic.
Should Mr.. Bridges resign or die an election
cannot take place for three or four weeks
In the meantime little or no business will be
transacted as it is admitted the democrats
will filibuster to prevent the election of a
senator. This they can do by breaking the
quorum every day in joint convention and if
all their members withdraw or refuse to vote
they can leave the House without a quorum
and then of course the joint convention can
