AUGUSTA, Oct 3l.-The notorious Wetzler
gang of Hallowell has at last been brought
to grief. Their plan has been to steal bag
gage checks from the railroad and steamboat
companies and claim baggage on them, suing
the company for its recovery. They have
brought one or more suits against the Maine
Central Railroad Company. Last fall, Jacob
Wetzler of Hallowell shipped quantity of
baggage from Hallowell to Boston on the
steamer Star of the East The boat arrived
early In the morning, and Wetzler sent his
boy to the wharf with check, and obtained
one piece Of bagge. About 10 o'clock in the
forenoon, his son-in-law, named Cohen. an
peared with two more checks, and wante d
two additional pieces of baggage. One was
given him, but the second could not be found
Wetzer accordingly commenced suit for
damages against the steamboat company. but
before the case could come to trial the com
pany had him indicted for obtaining goods
under false pretences, and he was tried and
convicted In Boston, the case commit TO trial

NORTH MONMOUTH, Oct. 30. 1888

NORTH MONMOUTH, Oct. ~, 1888.
To the Editor of the Press:
saw, in the "PREss" of Oct 18th, this
straw"
"a canvass of the political preferences Of the
passengers bound for Gettysburg. on the late
excursion, resulted in a vote Of las for Harrison
and Morton, and "a for Cleveland aud Thur
man."
Now no man can conscientiously assert
that the Democrats ,of any part of this
country have improved In moral principle In
the last decade, while the past three years Of
their administration of the affairs of ou
government has been a pointed illustration
of the proverb, "The wicked walk on every
side when the vilest men are exalted" and
our moonlight party, who ''yote as they
pray" seem anxious to continue the iliustra-
tion. Lest any soldier should be so be-
nighted In these days of political enlight-
ment, as to record his desire for the further
prosperity Of the Democratic party, by his
vote in November; let him remember that
what Democrats will do in Ohio, they will
do in Maine, or any other state In the Union !;
therefore we commend to him careful and
considerate reading of the following clipping
from "Maine State PRESS" Of 1878.
orphans are to expect from Democratic Congress
or legislatures may be reasonably well made out
In advance from the specimen OF Democratic
legislation respecting soldiers, widows and
orphans in Ohio. In May last, the legislature OF
Ohio, wellnign twothirds Democratic, BY a
strict party vote, enacted a law introduced BY a
deserter, bounty jumper and convict by profession
and confession, to destroy the Soldiers Orphan
Home at Xenia. This in effect, for 1t specif-
cally provides that no child of soldier "shall be
received into, or retrained in. the Home unless 1t
has attained the age Of twelve years, and It's
father, In his lifetime drew a pension" This
effsctually bars the doors Of that institution
against the very class Of children who need its
aid. Hitherto the Home has received all soldiers
orphans between the ages Of three and sixteen
years, without any questions.
But there is another provision worse than the
one above recited. IL discriminates against poor
soldiers widows who have children in the Home
by compelling them either TO take their children
out, or go themselves TO the Home. Without
respect OF party, the soldiers denounce this law
and are petitioning the legislature TO repeal It,"
If were a soldier how l would devote
myself night and day to party that were
continually presenting such tricks as that
for.the inspection Of the whole country.
