A hearing was had at the Court House on
Friday and Saturday before Judge Danforth
in an equity suit brought by Charles d. York
of Gardiner, against David A. Kincaid and
others in Cape Elizabeth, to obtain recon-
veyance of dwelling house and lot in Gar
diner alleged to be held in trust by the de-
PENDANTS for the plaintiff. A decision was
rendered in favor of the complainant and de-
cree for reconveyance of the property with
costs. Baker, Baker 4 Cornish appeared for
the complainant, and w. r. Authoine of
Portland for respondent.
Capt. John Haley of the Fort Popham life
saving station, is not a man who is frightened
at any ordinary occurrence, but one night
recently he says that for brief space he was
somewhat terrified. The gentleman had been
to Portland and was returning home. He
came to Bath on the evening train and there
took his boat and proceeded to row down the
river to his residence. The night was per-
fectly dark and after he had made
portion of the distance and was pull
ing quietly along with no thought that any
harm could reach him, something struck him
stunning blow in the back of the head and
knocked him down into the bottom of the
boat. He scrambled up the best he could,
with his hair. as our informant, an Augusta
citizen, expressed it. bristling out like the
quilts of a fretful porcupine, and looked
about him with dismay. But his feel
ings were relieved when he found that
fishy puglist in the shape of fifteen
pound sturgeon had done the deed and lay in
the boat Topping about. This energetic fish
IN his antics had evidently taken leap out
ofhis natural element and in his flight through
the air struck the gentleman As related.

The CoUNTY TICKET.

industrious efforts are being made in Re-
publican quarters to create the impression
that there is dissatisfaction among Demo
Gratis respecting the county ticket, and the
assertion has been made that the GLOBE
will not give cordial support to some of
the nominees. and particularly Mr.. OCoN-
NOR, the nominee for clerk. There is no
foundation for the assertion. There is no
Democratic disSension, and the GLOBE has
said that the county ticket is fairly repre-
sentative one and deserved support in its
entirety. Mr.. O'CoNNOR is an honorable,
upright gentleman, a sterling Democrat,
and has made a faithful public official, and
there is no reason why he should not be en-
titled to the support of every Democrat
in Ramsey county. He is young man OF
fine abilities, scholarly attalnmentS. good
character, and possesses all the qualifica-
tons that are essential to the discharge of
the duties of any Office that the people OF
Ramsey county may confer upon him. His
record as a member of the city council is
without spot. He has been faithful, ear
nest Democratic worker. who deserves all
that his party can bestow upon him, and
will be elected by an immense majority.
What is true OF Mr.. O'CoNNoB is equally
true of every other nominee on the county
ticket. There is not a man on it who is
not worthy of the support of the voters of
Ramsey county, and who will not credita-
oily fill the position for which he has been
mentioned as candidate. The Republi-
cans need give themselves no worry about
Democratic dissensions. There are none.
Ramsey county Democrats are going to vote
the Democratic ticket this year, and they
are going to vote it straight. And so far
as the GLOBES influence is welded, it will
be in favor of the Democratic ticket, the
whole ticket, and nothing but the ticket
without dot or scratch on it. This is
Republican year for scratching. Demo
Gratis will take theirs straight.

RELIGIOUS NEWS.
The UniVersaIisfs.

CLEVELAND. o., Oct. 21.-A special
from Akron says: The work of the Uni
verSalists general convention to-day was
largely preliminary to final action on many
matters which Will come up again to-mor-
row. An Invitation, signed by all the Uni
verSalst churches of New ork, to hold the
next yearly meeting there, was presented
and referred. The need OF constantly re-
cruitlng the ranks of the Universalist MN
lstry, was emphasized in the report OF the
committee Oh increase OF the ministry.
Among the resolutions which were submit
ted by Rev. NJ. l.. Edwards, of Iowa. was
the following:
Resolved, That while we rejoice that chat
Tel slavery, as 1t existed in portion of our
country When this convention assembled
mere IN 1913 and uttered its protest against
IT, we are compelled to recognize the fact
that human nature remains essentially the
same; that the greed and pride and ambition
wnich mt dc such slavery possible, are ever
at work and active in devising other forms of
serYitude which tend to reduce great
masses of the people to the condition of
neWers OF wood AMI drawers of water for
otners' and we lament the obvious fact that
some OF the laws, Institutions and customs,
ana some OF the organizations and economic
FORCES now at work in the community are
directly or indirectly producing results and
conditions between man and man contrary to
the plainest principles of natural Justice and
Christian law, and especially subyersive Of
that golden rule, which teaches to do unto
others as we would that others should do
unto US.

REPUBLICAN HARMONY.

The Republican brethren seem to find it
harder every day to dwell together in unity.
Beginning with the disgraceful proceedings
of the state convention, the disposition to
stir up the monkey and parrot sort of time
whenever possible has seemed to break
forth on the slightest provocation. Follow
ing the example thus set the Republican
organs soon became at loggerheadS, and at
least two of our esteemed contemporaries
now do not speak as they pass by. while
between local morning journal and another
in Minneapolis of the same political faith
there is a GOODNESS which is little short of
Arctic in its character and which makes
even Candidate GILFILLAN shiver as he
observes it. With the necessity devolving
upon them of supporting candidates who
possess so little calculated to commend
them to the favor of thinking men, it is no
wonder that the organs pipe somewhat out
of tune and give false pitch to their fol-
lowers. The sort of discord which they
seem fond of producing is rapidly
spreading all over the state and the
Republican structure is fast becoming
house divided against itself. Of course it
was to be expected that those Republicans
who retained sufficient manliness to break
loose from the vile methods of the ring, and
whose independence prompted them to visit
it with severe condemnation, would receive
the vituperative abuse of their more un-
principled brethren, but the result exceeds
even the widest anticipation. Discord
reigns supreme in the Republican
ranks. 1t penetrates every district
and county in the state, and the wheat
ring. with its arrogant assumption of dicta-
torship. is responsible. 1t is heaIthful in
dication that Republicans by the score are
refusing to obey its mandates. and it is
something which the Democrats have good
reason for viewing with unalloyed satisfac-
ton. With earnest effort on their part it
will result in the election on the I'd of No
vember of DR.. ANEs as the next governor
of Minnesota.

THE STAIN IS THERE.

Mr.. MCGILL is still unable to wash the
stain of the wheat ring from his hands,
PILLsBURY and FLETCHER have their can
didate masquerading around over the state
as the farmers favorite, but somehow they
manage to keep him away from the agri-
cultural districts and will not let him
appear on the stump where the farmers can
get chance to catechize him. Some
farmer might want to know of Mr.. MCGILL,
if he is such a friend to the farmer as he
processes to be, why it is that he is sand
wiched into the canvass between two such
eminent members of the Millers' assoca-
ton as Messrs. PLLsBURY and FLETCHER
Such question would be very embarrassing
to Mr.. McGILL, and for fear that it might
be propounded he manages to keep so Tar
away that the farmers can't speak to him.

FORCE OLE HABIT.

The force of habit is wonderfully strong,
as is illustrated by the way in which the
two Republican organs are throwing dirt
at each other. They have been mudsling-
ing so long that they can't quit it. After
WINDOWS bad break at Branerd the ring
bosses concluded to let up on the mudsling
ing business for awhile, and issued orders
accordingly. But our Republican brethren
of the press couldn't quit. The habit was
too strong for sudden break off. They
had to throw mud or die, so they turned
around and went to Singing dirt at each
other. One calls the other a double
twisted traitor and the other retorts by
pronouncing his brother Republican editor
an alien and meddler. This is a free
country, and mudslinging is constitutional
privilege guaranteed to people who are fond
of it. Go in

MISS CLEyELAND,s STRIKE.

has been stricken with the strike fever.
Itddn't take the lady long to catch on to
the Chicago methods. Scarcely was she
installed in her new place as editor of
Literary Life when she went On a strike
and demanded an increase of wages. There
is, however, a singular modesty in Miss
CLEvELAND's demands that can only be
accounted for upon the theory that she
hasn't lived in Chicago long enough to learn
how to hog Whole persinmon. In addi-
ton to an advance of $500 month in her
salary, Miss CLEVELAND wants half in

of it is that she didn't ask for it all. The
proprietor of Literary Life is making a
stout resistance to the demands of this

day. however, the Rock Island has been
taking stock for eastern points at the same
rate which is made by the other roads on
long distance hauls. The Burlington and
the Northwestern representatives are badly
excited over the Rock Islands action and a
general cut on live stock rates is threatened.

A woRK1NGMAN,s QUESTION.

During the late political campaign in
Maine there was political meeting at
Portland and Mr.. BLAINE was addressing
the crowd. He was making a speech on
the tariff, when a nottingham who stood
in the crowd interrupted him with this
query: ''Mr. BLAINE, who is protected?
recently examined the payroll of the
miners Of the Hooking valley and there was
an average of from S12 to SIS per month.
There was small army of PINKERToN's
hugs going about with whole arsenal of
weapons strapped upon them, who were
, watching these miners, and yet the miners
were supposed to be protected by duty of
SO cents ton upon the coal they risked
their lives to mine. For twenty-five years
we have had this protection Mr.. BLAINE
offers US. and we have made more million
aires and more paupers under that system
than were ever made in any civilized coun-
try on the earth in the same time before
Now, who is protected?" Mr.. BLAINE did
not answer the question then, nor has he
answered it since. And he never will at
tempt to answer it. And yet this is the
same kind of protection Mr.. GILFILLAN
voted for, and to the perpetuation of which
he to-day stands committed. The work
ingmen are singing that same question into
Mr.. GuFILLAN's ears to-day. But he
doesn't answer it, nor will he attempt to
answer it. And yet the Republican bosses
and organs say that GILFILLAN ought to
be elected.

OF COuRSE 1T DID.

The Pioneer Press owns up that it had a
partisan purpose for patting Mr.. RICE on
the back and was not actuated by princ-
pie. Its tariff reform professions all go for
nothing where partisan contest is in
volved. So far as Mayor RICE is individu-
ally concerned he is probably to be congrat-
uIated that the Pioneer Press was not in
earnest in its supposed support of him. In
view of the fact that it SO rarely, if ever,
supports a successful candidate, there was
some apprehension that the disposition re-
Gently manifested by the Pioneer Press to
support Mr.. RICE's candidacy would be det-
to him. 1t is all right now and
Mr.. RICE will henceforth have clear sailing.
The Pioneer Press comes out fiat-foOted for
GILFILLAN and swallows his protection
record without gulping.
