Kennebec Ice Men Talk of the Pros
poets of the Season.

AUGUSTA, Jan. 14.-The winters ice busi-
ness on the Kennebec has begun. Fridays
storm brought host of teams and larger
number of workmen to Augusta, and "thingc
were humming" on the Kennebec on Satur-
day. member Of one of the largest ice
firms on the river say that, by the first
of next week, the Kennebec near Augusta
will be the scene of tho liveliest campaign
work in Maine, and the ice men suggest that
it will rival the next gubernatorial campaign.
1t is estimated by gentlemen interested in
the business that, next week, there will be an
army Of between 5000 and 1000 men and 1000
to 1900 horses:pulling and cutting and hoist
ing and hustling hundreds of tons of ice into
the mammoth ice sheds that line the banks
of the Kennebec from Bowdoinham to with
in sight of the capital city. On Thursday Of
this week the first crew went to work on the
river, and the crowd has been growing big
ger every day, and will grow bigger for sew
eral days to come, when the whole of the
crews of the great ice concerns on the Ken
nebec will cover this great ice field and hew
out acres and acres OF Ice.

Commissioner Stanley Talks of the
Increase Of Came.

AUGUSTA, Jan. 144Fish Commissioner
Stanley, who is in town, says that hardly a
day goes by that he does not receive letters
from parties living in different sections in
Maine, and in Massachusetts. too, request
ing copies of the fish and game laws of the
State. SIT is surprising what an amount of
interest is manifested in our game
and fish," says Mr. Stanley. "Ey-
cry year l find that people who have held to
the opinion that they ought to be allowed to
hunt and fish without any restrictions what
ever, and have claimed thatit was nonsense
for the State to enact laws for the protection
of her fish and game, are disposed to take a
most common sense view of the thing, and
are manifesting disposition to keep the
law. There has been less poaching in
Maine during the past year than in former
years, and yet we have had altogether more
of it than has been agreeable"
Within the last three years, Mr.. Stanley
SAYS, the number of deer in this State has
doubled. Caribou have largely increased
within that time Moose are not as plenti-
full, of course, as are deer and caribou, but
there is no doubt of decided increase in
the number of moose in this State within a
few years past This agreeable condition Of
things is regarded by Mr.. Stanley, and by
many sportsmen throughout the State as en-
tirely due to the protective game laws.

BERLIN, Jan. 14.-The Cars failure to

Temperance instruction In the
Schools.

We find the following in the Lewiston
Journal
mostly heartily approve of every word of
the sixty-fourth section of the laws relating
to public schools, compiled and published in
1875; and conceive it to be in reality, the most
important section Of the %; to be most
zealously guarded by the school committee.
But If your circular intends by the phrase
Temperance instruction in the public
schools" to refer to the use Of special text
books on the physiological effects Of alcohol,
must say that / think the effect of such
books, will, in the end. be injurious. unless
they are prepared with more care than is at
all likely to be bestowed upon them. If the
phrase refers to books advocating the sys-
tenn of public laws known as
the ''prohfbitory" system, / must
confess that l regard that system as
threatening to produce far greater evils than
it removes TO carry the advocacy of it
into the public schools would be to turn the
attention of teachers from the spirit which
giveth life in that grand sixty-fOnrth section
and fasten it upon an absurd pervsion of a
small portion of its letter The spirit of the
law emphatically requires that teachers with
or without anything in the text books to sug-
gcst it, should kindly and earnestly warn
