A Divorce Suit Breaks up the Plans OF
Some York Democrats.

lBudeI0rd Times.
Bldde1ord people have wondered at the
mushroom like rapidly with which electric
lights have been springing up all oyer the
city during the past few months. 1t was
only necessary for Thomas, Richard and
Henry to sign their names to a statement
that an electric light was needed at this cor
ner or that and the next morning 1t was
there. Such promptitude to meet more than
hall way the desires of the people was never
before known in the history of the city. 1t
was evident to disinterested and intelligent
onlookers that there was black man in the
place somewhere, but it was not until this
morning that 1.-THE darkey was accidentally
discovered The twoschief manipulators OF
the game whereby the city has been MIXED
find themselves on the opposite sides OF an
unsavory domestic squabble, and the result
is that the secret is out. The long and short
of the matter Is that Mr.. Jere G. Shaw and
Mr.. .Orrin II. Staples, with an investment or
liability OF $500 in the stock Of the Trad
ers' Electric Light Company. have made
net profitin year of $500, or about one
hundred and fifteen per cent on their money
The major part Of this immense proht mas
come or will come directly from the pockets
of the taxpayers of Biddeford.
The composition OF the committee of the
city council on street lights, taken in con-
junction with the compassionate theiElectric
Light company and the relations existing be-
tween the latter and majority of the Tor
mer, furnish the key to the situation, and
explain the prosperous" condition OF the
Traders company. An interesting query In
this connection, is the intended ultimate des-
| tination of the plumber 1t may be that the
parties were only playing into each others
hands. but it seems more probable that there
was a well formed political purpose at the
bottom of the scheme. As to this we can
only conjecture, but the near conjunction OF
the announcement that Democratic daily
| paper was to be started, and the disclosures
made in Saco today ARE, to say the least,
| highly suggestive.
Was there an understanding among the
| Democratic bosses that the extra profits the
| Traders company should be allowed to fitch
| from the city treasurer should be devoted to
the purpose of founding or assisting the new
organ?
But as Bobby Burns says, The best laid
