The Belfast Journal reproves the "Maine
papers generally" for copying without
credit an account Of the recent adventure
of two Portland runners, first published In
the Somerset REPORTER. The report was
verified by the Advertisers reporter, who
questioned the drummers themselves here,
and partially re-wrote the article. Never
theless the original report was good
piece of work and the diligence OF the
Somerset paper should have been recog-
niz.d.- Portland Advertiser.
We have no reason to find fault with the
Advertiser, as we consider 1t one OF the
most honorable papers iu the state, as far
% giving credit Is concerned. We know
Of our own knowledge that they did re-
write our article. The Lewiston journal
however, stole 1t wholesale IS is their Gus
tom and used 1t as original matter. They
are not likely to deny 1t either, but will
probably Ia, It of on come understrapper

Speaking about the power of the X. K.
Commissioners reminds me OF some things
they might do that they do not. They are
allowing the New Brunswick Railway to
operate the road from Presque Isle to Carl
bou. while 1t is In an unsafe condition,
according to all reports. The other morn
Ing the train stopped once to fix broken
rail, and soon after, while running to make
up the lost time, broke another rail and
the passenger car was thrown from the
track and narrowly escaped going into the
river many feet below. brother drum
mer who was on board and had his first
experience In a raj way accident, described
the affair to me most graphicy. The
trouble with the road is that the rails are
small narrow gauge iron, and the frost has
thrown the seepers in all directions. Ii
before this letter is printed the Commits
sioners take this matter in hand, we wish
to take back all that we have said, for they
are all most competent gentlemen and al
ways really to do their duty when 1t Is
made plain To I!em.

The Penobscot lumber cut for the past
winter has been placed all along at one
hundred millions, but now there are people
who put it as low as ninety and others who
think one hundred and ten would not be
too high to set the amount. Dillgent In

these estimates, which may be summarized
