A MeritOriOus Bill.

The New Age of the 9TH inst. requests
the Kennebac delegation to procure the
passage of law placing the City Marshal
of Augusta and Judge Of the Municipal
Court on salary. Such a measure would
be good one, but the New Age is late in
its advice. Saturday, January 31st, re-
preventative Heath of this city introduced
a measure more sweeping than the idea
of the New Age. The Heath bill compels
all cities and towns in Kennebec county,
having municipal courts, to place their
Judges, City Marshals, and Chiefs of
police on fixed salaries 1t further pro-
vides that no police officer receiving per
diem shall draw fees from the county.
This bill was discussed at length at the
meeting of the delegation Wednesday eve
ming. Feb. 4, and met the approval of
every member present. The County Com
missioners and County Treasurer Rollins
spoke heartily in favor of the bill. The
hearing was continued to the adjourned
meeting to be held next Tuesday. Mr..
Heath expressed the opinion that the bill
would result in quite saving to the coun-
ty. without doing any injustice to the
cities and towns to be affected
Knowing that this bill was pending be-
fore the delegation, the New Age with it's
usual hypocrisy rushes in and pretends to
start reform already started by Others
At some pains we have looked up the
dates of this matter, that we might expose
the humbuggery Of the New Age. The
people will soon learn that our members
from Kennebec county are as anxious for
good government in this county as the
gentleman from Bangor who edits (9) the
! New AGE.

MOnrQe Denman, an industrious
and prosperous young farmer, living
a short distance north Of this city,
brought to this office MordqY a
sample Of sorghum mOlnsses that he
made this year US an experiment,
which, in appearance and taste, Is
far superior 10 the black, thick sOr-
ghum mOlasses 80 common in west
ern Illinois twenty-five Years ago.
Mr.. Denim IN and his nelghbors put
IN only a few hills Of sorghum this
year, not knQwing how the plant
would succeed in this soil, hgt the
result on . small scale has proved 70
satisfactory, even with the crude al
pliances ut hand for extracting and
handling the juice, that several Of
them propose to plant considerable
ground next year, and experiment
in sorghum making on large scale.
This first attempt encourages them,
and we believe that time will prove
that as good sorghum syrup can be
manufactured here as anywhere in
the United States.

THE people Of PalOuse city are In
earnest In their endeavors to induce
the construction Of a road from their
city northward to Spokane Falls, or
rather from the N. P. road at this
point southwark. 1t. Is a feeling
that exists 10 an Intense degree all
through the country to the south Of
US. The project Is one We all hope
to see carried out and that at once.
The building Of such a line would
lnfuse into this part Of the territory
new life and would open up farm
ing section the equal Of which Is not
to be found anywhere outdoors. Let
our people work hand In hand with
the people Of the Palouse country
and endeayor to induce the railroad
to supply this great want. The
PalOuse Relcs under the head Of
"Wanted'' says;
,.That we have great and urgent
need tDr'a railroad extending from
-Four Mile north to Spokane Falls;
that no more natural mute exists IN
the Pacific slope upon which 70 build
Il railroad; that the tins has cume
when every citizen along iOOthills "
The COPur dAltine mOnai4ins should
make an exertlOn to lsf6cure the
speedy construction uf railroad
through the hegTt Of the finest body
OF agricultural land In the famGlls
Pal1use eOultr are facts that should
cause our citizens to act with an
diAcrity that will leave no doubt in
the premises" d.

Members baving the privilege Of en-

found the association valuable rs a
means through which to obtain sub
