the stumps and roots that remain in the
forests after the timber has been cut. These
are subjected to a process of dry distilla-
ton, and besides wood-oil many other pro-
ducts are obtained, among wDich turpen-
tine, creosote, acetic acid, wood charcoal,
tar-oils, etc. This oil can not be used in
ordinary lamps, as containing large pro-
portion OF carbon it gives off great deal
of smoke during combustion. When
mixed with benzine, however, it may be
used in ordinary benzine lamps, but when
burned alone special lamp must be
adopted. The trees that furnish the greatest
amount of oil are the pine and fir. There
are now about forty establishments engaged
in this manufacture in Sweden.-Foreigs

AUGUSTA, Nov. 26, 1886
MBssRs. VEAZIE e. PRICE, BIoN W. Russell
and others, Weston, Maine.
Gentlemen: Your petition to the Hon.
Governor and Council with statement of facts
alleging irregularities in the holding of the
town meeting in Weston for election of State
and county officers Sept Is, SO, has been re-
ceived.
The returns from your town for State and
county officers are regular in form and com.
ply with the requirements of the law.
Under the decision of the Supreme Judicial
Court in answsr to Question asked by Gov
ernor Garcelon the Court said:
1.-The Governor and Council must act upon
the returns forwarded to the Secretary of
State. If they purport to be made, signed
and sealed up in open plantation or town
meeting, they constitute the basis of the ac-
ton of the canvassIng board. No provision
10 found in the constitution or in any statute
of this State, by virtue of which they would
be authoriz, d to receive evidence to negative
the facts therein act forth. They, therefore,
have no such p,wer rhe state .nent of the
municipal officers l. IN that respect conclu-
sive."
A letter from one of your number to the
Governor and Council states that on election
day, voting did not commence until after 4
o'clock 2. M, and then without warrant or
constable's return. no constable being pres
ent.
Now if your constable, to whom the NUM-
cipal officers issued the warrant calling the
meeting, failed to do his duty, he is liable in
damages. Or. s Chap. 4, Sec. CD
Notwithstanding the facts stated IN the pc.
tition aud in the letter referred the returns
being regular the Governor and Council have
no authority in the premises, but must follow
the returns.
II by the course pursued at your election
you have lost your candidate for representa-
tive, as by the returns, the seat of the gem
tleman to whom the summons is issued can
be contested as provided in Chap. 4, r s
Sec. 81 and 81 The House of Representa-
lives is the fins judge of the election and
qualification of its own members.
Yours truly,
JOSEPH A. LOCKE,
For the Governor and Council.

extended notice of Col. L. +. Copeland's
eloquent and entertaining lecture at
Granite Hall last evening on "Snobs and
Snobbery." He protested against cast and
snobbery of every kind and declared against
aristocracy of wealth. blue blood or title.
Character and worth were his aristocracy.
He objected to cast of learning of conceited
illiteracy, of dress. He payed his respects
to the doctors, lawyers and editors; and was
especially severe on the snobbery in the pews
of our churches. The dude and dudlne came
in for a share of his attention. Cast was
contrary to the law of God and among the
grandest words ever spoken are those found
in the command, Love your neghbor as your
self. The audience was oftentimes in roar
of laughter.

The first case in order for trial was Haskell
vs. Fletcher which came to this court on APP
neal from the judgment for the plaintiff given
nv .Jndce Lancaster of the Municipal Court
for the club. 1t was an action of trover To
recover the value of book OF records of
the club alleged to have been wrongly taken
from the plaintiff by the defendant and con
yerted to his own use September 27. The
plaintjff claimed that he was elected Secretary
of the club at the regular meeting September
and that the constitution of the club made him
a. such officer the sole custodian OF its rec
ords. Defendants claimed LIST, that he was
the legally elected secretary and admitted the
taking of the book but claimed To hold it as
such secretary snd refused to return 1t to the
pla,ptiff: Fad, that even if he was not the
LEGALLY elected secretary he was tenant in
common with the plaintiff in the property aud
that trover would not lie against MN; o1'
that even if the plaintiff were the legally
elected secretary of the club the holding OF
that office gave him no special property In the
book that would form the basis OF an acton
of trover against the defendeut. After hearing
the testimony and the arguments of the coun-
sci the jury under the instruction OF the court
in matter of law brought in a verdict for the
plaintiff assessing nominal damages.
