The Age spoiled an otherwise sensible arti-
Gle on the Sebasticook and Moosehead Lake
Railroad by the childish paragraph quoted
above. Messrs. Frye and Miliken were men
toned AS among the speakers invited, and we
do not see VIII, consratulatory speeches Oh the
opening of a new railroad should be confined
to ''prominent railroad men," or what grounds
there can be for the suspicion of the Age that
TINS was to be partisan affair. 1t Is of course,
nothing OF the kind, but the Inauguration of a
purely business enterprise which cannot help
