An Invitation.

Our readers are invited to read the
advertisements in the TRIBUNE before
they 90 anywhere else for what they
want Our object is threefold in making
this requ st, First, if a man advertises
his business it is very good evidence
that he is enterprising aud successful
and knows the benefits to be derived
theretrom. His store is generally well
stocked and he takes pleasure in waiting
on you-he sells rapidly and therefore
can afford to sell chsap'y The second
object akin to the first is our d sire to
benefit the subscribers and readers Of
TRIBUNE by showing them the way to
save money by going where they can
purchase or have their work done most
reasonably. 1t fellows that if both
classes OF our patrons are benefited by
the paper they will support us to a
greater extent, which is our third OBJ
ject. Reflect and you will do as we
request.

Prospective Legislation.

Among the schemes and propositions
that are likely to come before the Maine
Legislature the coming session we learn
from various sources, the following will
come up for consideration:
Hon. A. W. Paine, of Bangor, will
again try to get his bill allowing voting
by proxy considered also has measure
designed to work justice to illegetmate
children The labor question, the ten
hour law, imprisonment for debt will re-
ccive their full share of attention.
The proposed prohibitory legislation is
To- put in several more teeth in the law
already reasonably full OF them, to fur
Their restrict the sale of cider and to make
Imprisonment the penalty for the first vlo-
l.tion Of the law, taking away the dis
erection OF the Court. Women Suiirag SITS
are organizing for effective work and Will
make the greatest effort in the history Of
the State to secure equal rights with the
lords of creation. There is no good reas-
IN why they should not have them, in
tluulllS SuHldsc aS t1iiN a. NY ''''
want 1t.
The Megantic Railroad company have
given notice that they will ask permission
I, build line parallel with the Bangor
rnd Piscataquis road, for a short distance
thin ten miles of it. 1t is said the
Bangor people will oppose this measure,
unless .he Canadian road makes rms
with them. Among the changes in school
l,ws is a proposition to have a state
board of education made up of members
from each county with the Supcrintend-
ent of Schools as Secretary thereof An
organized effort to abolish the district sys-
tenn is probable A proposition Is
preached to abolish the Brigade system
Of the State Militia, and have the two reg
iments hold regimental encampments an
nually, instead of general muster. The
Tax law will be considered and an effort
made to equalize the burden so that real
estate may not bear more than its just
proportion. The corporation laws OF
Maine are exceedingly loose ones and are
to receive attention. The Maine Benefit
Association Of Auburn, will ask the priv
ilege Of investigating the reserve
required to be deposited in the State
Treasury. Veterans will ask the appropri
alton of s. 900 for the erection Of tablets
ut Gettysburg, in honor of the eleven reg
iments and three batteries that participant
cd in that great battle. 1t is said that al
attack will be made to break down thu
Maine State College, by Withholding ap
preparations. The reprieve of Mr. Bar
rows, the York County murdcrcrs unit
after the adjournment of the legislature
will naturally bring up the well worI
question of capital punishment
The consideration of special and loca
measures usually take more time than tina
of public ones, and the coming session
will undoubtedly be busy one.
