1t would be difficult to crowd more silly
misstatements into piece Of the same length
than is to be found in despatch sent from
Portland to the Boston Post regarding the
city election. mo one," observes this des-
patch, regards the result as party victory
but decision rendered by the people against
the prohibitory law" 1t is not quite clear
what this means but if it means, as it proba-
bly, does, to assert that everybody or
majority of the people of Portland regards
the result as declaration against the pro-
hibitory law it is grossly untrue. Again
this despatch declares, This issue was di-
rectly presented to the people. Shall the
prohibitory law be enforced?'" 1t is true
that that was presented as the issue by GER
tain Third Party Prohibitionists and certain
Democrats, but the existence of such an
issue was not admitted by the Republicans,
and they did not vote on any such question
at all. Again says the despatch, 1.-THE pop
ular verdict against the prohibitory system
was given in way not to be questioned"
1t is questioned by a large majority of the
voters of Portland. The truth is the cleo
ton neither contained any very important
lesson nor decided any important question
except the question of who is to be the
Mayor OF Portland the coming year.
1t showed that the Democratic managers Of
Portland are very absurd set of politicians
but that was known before, though perhaps
not so widely.

tho woods and prairies, the danger of exter-
,,,ina,;op seemed remote. When Lewis and
1gark made their explorations, and later
when Fremont crossed the continent the
bison which roamed over our Western plains
were estimated at millions. The prairies Of
the Upper Missouri and the Yellowstone
were feeding grounds specially favored by
large herds. Two years ago the ranchmen
Of that region reported that in their opinion
the buffalo were extinct there. About this
time the Scientists>of the Smithsonian Insti-
tute awoke to the fact of the disappearance
of the buffalo, and desiring to preserve by
the taxerdermist's art the form and appear
ance of this wonderful animal, sent a hunt
ing party into the northwest In wild and
sequestered tract in Montana, south of the
Missouri river, they found herd of about
fifty animals, from which they obtained
their specimens. Since then the ranchmen
have gone into that region, and the last
refuge of the bison in Montana is in Yellow
stone Park, where few herds still exist.
There are also said to be a few lonesome
remnants of herds yet ranging along the
foothills of the Rocky mountains. The
doom of these cannot be but few years dis
tant unless some protective measures not yet
thought of can be devised. To the moose at
the same time the Smithsonian scientists
have been giving their attention, though its
disappearance from favorte haunts has not
been SO rapid as to call for the same eners
getic measures that were taken to preserve
for the future the knowledge Of the buffalo.
But whenever large moose has been killed
in Maine they have taken pains 20 aseer-
tain as accurately as possible Its size,
weight and proportions, and have secured
several skins to be mounted against
the time when the great American
elk shall no longer exist. The latest
Smithsonian report says that in a few years
more the moose, deer, mountain sheep and
goat, the last OF the great game animals, will
be wholly exterminated. Whether the game
laws of Maine will be able to put this proph-
ccy to naught so far as the moose and deer
are concerned, will depend very much on
how well they are enforced. 1t is certain
that the deer and moose are much more nu-
merous in our northern forests than they
were few years ago. The moose especial
ly, which few years ago apparently dis
appeared, are here again in considerable
numbers, either having multiplied under
protective laws. or drifted back from harass-
ment in Canadian haunts The deer have
unquestionably increased because they have
been protected; and from border CAMPS this
winter have come reports that their enemies
the wolves have returned. tempted back
probably by the increase of game. From
present appearances the Smithsonian scien-
lists may study the Maine moose at their lei
sure. We hope to have him with us some
time longer

All things considered, the greatest throne
on earth to-day is undoubtedly the throne of
Germany. Its dominion over the greatest
military power Of the world, as well as the
conspicuous abilities and illustrious tradi-
tions Of the family that has furnished its oc-
,cupants for more than a century, combine to
elevate its influence far above OTHER Euro
pean thrones, for which might be claimed
either more renowned antiquity or more alb
solute dominion. Perhaps no chrome in mod
ern times has received so much from aud adj
ded so little to the personality Of the family
that has occupied it. Few royal families
have been preserved so well as the family Of
Hohenzolern, that has given the Great Elec-
tor and the Great Frederick to one century
and Kaiser William to another. All the
more melancholy by contrast becomes the
situation to which that house and throne now
come. The Emperor William, weighed down
with the weight of more than ninety years,
can rest his weary eyes nowhere but ON these
objects: his empire taxed almost beyond en-
durance to maintain the ornaments which
alone alone keep Germany's enemies from
her borders; the heir to his throne, on whom
his own hopes and the hopes of the nation
have rested for years, dying of a mortal dis
ease; and the young Prince William, to
whose uncertain hands may be intrusted at
any moment the seeptre that has been none
too light for the frmest heroes of his race. A
more impressive example of the instability
of human power is rarely offered than the
clouded fortunes of the family that year ago
seemed SO well prepared to face for Germa-
ny the contingencies OF the future. OF Prince
William many different things are said.
Those gossips who omit to mention his esca-
pades are pretty certain to dwell upon his
bodily deformities; and those who credit
him with military ardor debit him to good
judgment and discretion. Independence OF
others influence is a trait Of his character
but there is much doubt whether this is be-
cause he is headstrong OF has strong head.
On the WHOLE the character Of Prince VIII
liam seems TO be far from the least OF the un
certainties that beset the throne Of the do
henzollerns.

Portland as a summer Resort.

We print elsewhere an article from the
Albany Evening Journal upon the beauties
of Portlands sea coast and the advantages
which her matchless surroundings offer to
summer tourists and persons seeking seaside
residences of permanent character There
can be no doubt that it is only question of
time when our islands and the shores along
the Falmouth Foreside and Cape Elizabeth
will be thickly dotted with the villas and cot
tages of persons coming from other States to
enjoy the delightful scenery and health-giv-
ing breezes of Casco Bay, which is I'M
matched by any place of equal extent upon
the globe. One important step to secure
summer travel to Portland will be the cree
tion of first class hotel on one of our
Promenades; the Western Promenade at
first, and perhaps later, another on the East
ern. A hotel located upon our Western
Promenade commanding the matchless
views of the surrounding country would
draw people here for temporary res
idence, many of whom would be-
come in time permanent summer resi-
dents here. Such hotel could not fail
to be good investment. 1t would not only
have about it scenery quite as fine on the
country side as that to be seen from the
Poland Springs house, but also an extensive
view of the Atlantic, and the islands and
shores of the bay; besides being near some
of the most beautiful drives in the world.
Here indeed, can be found everything which
one can desire: beautiful drives, fine fishing,
delightful scenery and health giving breezes,
close to city where all the luxuries Of life
can be obtained. Aladdin with his marvel
Gus lamp could not create greater attrac-
lions than lie around the Forest City await
ing the advent Of beauty seekers. Another
thing needed is an attractive and convenient
waiting place for persons using the island
and seashore steamers, which ply at all
hours in the bay. Why could not such
place be created at the foot of Congress street,
near Curtiss shipyard, to which the cars
could run? A large wharf could be built
here with waiting rooms at the head of it
from which car could start Immediately
after the arrival of the boat, and in five min
utes land passengers in the vicinity of-the
post office, and in eight minutes in Congress
Square. Some dredging would be necessary
and the Grand Trunk railroad would
have to be bridged; all matters of no great
cost. In places much smaller than Portland,
and without half Of its attractions, much
more elaborate and costly facilities for sum-
mer travel are created. These matters
better hotel accommodations and better
waiting places for persons using our harbor
steamers-are important for our merchants
to discuss.

The VANISHING came animals,

The State of Maine is the last secure
refuge of one Of the most important of the
great game animals found on this continent
by the early discoveries. The tall and un-
calmly form of the moose, noblest game of
the northern forests, was a spectacle that
left upon the imaginations of the voyagers
an effect only equalled by those almost in
terminable herds of bison that on the prai-
ries sometimes stretched from horizon to
horizon. So long as the Indian hunter with
his primitive weapons was the only foe of
the buffalo and the moose, and indeed, long
after the white hunters had begun to range
