Here and There.

The 'Bowdoin Orient thinks the editor
of the 'Rockland Opinion appears Ito be In
n very frantic and chaotic state of mind
"ludging from an article which recently ap-
peared in that paper "He seems" saws the
Orient, Ito labor under the delusion that
President Hyde has been terribly insulted
by the Republicans of this college" Quot
ing from the Opinion its "fanatical and in
cendiary" declaration that "the next man
who tries it" (bulldozing) whether Prof 4,
Student, OF Brunswick rough should be
put under the pump, and its belief
that the Democratic students should
"clean out the whole Federal W hip-
Black-Republican shebang," the Orient
quotes the expression of a Democratic stu
dent that such language lis an insult to the
intelligence of the college"
The Orient further declares that "the
practice of putting the Professors under the
pump has quite gone out of fashion" at
Bowdoin, and that when "a student feels the
exhiliratng effects of precipitated humidity II
is always from some other cause than his politi-
cal opinions" Continuing it says: "As a mat
ter of fact the President has been snb bjected to
no insult by the Republicans of the college
They may differ from his political views, but
a difference of opinion has yet to be recog-
nized as an insult And among the stu
dents, too, there is the most perfect harmony
and the campaign clubs have yet to stir up
the slightest animosity among those of diff
ferent political views. Each respects the
opinions of the other, recognizing the fact
that the Bowdoin student. be he Democrat
or Republican, is first of all a gentleman"

FRATERNAL COOPERATION
To be Attempted Among All the Labor
Organizations Of the Country.
Powderly Makes tha. First Move in a
Telegram to Chief Arthur

PHILADELPHIA, Oct 10.
The Call this evening says: An effort to
secure the fraternal cooperation of all labor
organizations in the country is being made
with very fair prospect of success. 1t has
been known for some time that the leaders
of the several large organizations were ready
TO accept an olive branch from the heads of
the kindred societies but up to today no one
has taken the initiative. The general mas
ter workman made the first move today by
sending kilograms to Chief Arthur of the
Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers, who
are holding convention at Richmond, Va,
and to the convention of the Brotherhood of
Railway Brakemen. The telegram to Ar
thur is as follows:
PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 10, 1888.
p. NJ. Arthur, G. c. E., b. L. E., Rich
mond, Va:
Accept my fraternal greetings and best
wishes for successful session. Will your
convention consent to fraternal co-opera-
tion to the end that all disputes may be prop
erly and equitably adjusted. The time is
now at hand when all labor organizations on
this continent, forgetful of the past, should
cooperate on essentials for the welfare of
all. Our hand is extended in friendship.

A despatch to the Brakemen's Brotherhood

Cannot steps be taken to affect An under

Our State College Letter

ORoNo, Oct, l9.
As soon as the news that the Coburn Ca
diets had challenged any military company in
the State to competitive drill, reached
Lewiston. the Neatly Rifles appointed pri-
yate +, L. Edgecomb, to visit the Cadets
and accept their challenge, and he arrived
at the college Wednesday morning. A num-
her of propositions were talked over. Capt.
Cushman of the Cadets offered in behalf of
his company to drill either in Bangor or
Lewiston any time before Nov. 20. each
side to bear one-half the expenses and re-
ceive half the gate receipts. Mr. Edgecomb
could not accept this on his own responsible
;,v but said he would refer it his company
who would he thought agree to the proposal
I, is expected that the Rifles will soon be
heard again on the subject.
Whether any company except the Nealey
Rifles will accept the challenge remains to
he seen, but it is to be hoped that some
one will. not that We are so confident OF
winning, IAN hour day is all the time we
can have. while. doubtless. other companies
could spend more, but the ''more the mer-

A LITTLE ADVICE.
Which John Bull Profferg Regarding
Our Chinese Relations.

NEW YORK, Oct. 10.
A special from London to the Tribune says
A little lecture to Americans on their treat
ment of the Chinese may be found in yes
terday's Times. Americans who value JUS
tice must, in the opinion of this writer, feel
greatly ashamed of what is going on. If,
however, they reside in districts much fire.
quented by the Chinese, they are not ex-
pected to have sense of shame. The re-
lection of the Washington convention at
Pekin is not here thought justification for
the arbitrary exclusion of the Chinese in
violation of the existing treaty. Englishn!en
in Australia have troubles of their own with
the Chinese and are as eager as the Pacific
States in America to keep out the celestials.
But, says the Times, public opinion in
England would not sanction an attempt like
that now making iii America to override
treaty stipulations by domestic legislation.
The courts in Victoria, unlike the courts in
California, uphold the rights of the hated
Cinnamon and decided against their own
government, which claimed the prerogative
to prohibit the landing of immigrants The
Australian press and public accepted this
judicial decision. America is to 90 and do
likewise, lest Pekin, which is capable of
quiet obstinacy in the end, prove more than
a match for Washington.

MISS wILLARD'S ADDRESS.
She Considers Neither of the Two Great
Parties Good Enough for Her.

New YORK, Oct. 10.
Miss Willard, in her annual address, urged
the establishment by the state, of homes for
adult incapacities. such as infirm inebriates
victims of the tobacco, opium and chloral
habits. She suggested that the convention
ask for the appointment of Mrs. Elizabeth
Thompson as one of the peace commission
ers to be designated by the President She
discussed the political side of temperance.
The republican party. she said, according to
the testimony of the brewers, has done all
they asked for the brewing interest," while
the democratic party has openly espoused
the liquor traffic. The prohibition party was
the party to support.
At the evening session 5000 women were
in the building. Mayor Hewitt's appearance
on the stage aroused demonstration. The
mayor was introduced by Miss Willard as
great and good man" He made felicit-
GUS speech, welcoming the ladies to New
York, eulogizing their work, declaring that
the opinion of the world is getting better
every day, announcing himself friend of
temperance regardless of the need of votes
just now, crediting the women with the most
of the good done in the world.

The overseers of the poor received yester-
day a letter from the authorities of the town
of Hamden stating that John Mayo of Au-
gusta, had been found living in the outskirts
of the village in very destitute condition.
Mayo is a French Canadian about 81 years of
age, who for a long while lived at the city
farm. About two weeks ago female pau
per who had been many years at the farm
died of old age, but it was impossible to con-
vince Mayo, who is partially insane, Of her
decease. At length when he saw her coffin
arrive he became persuaded that the town
authorities had become tired of supporting
the old lady and were about to bury her
alive. Fearing the same fate himself, after
alarming several of his friends with the direful
tale of premature interment,he decamped for
parts unknown and has not been heard of
till the present time. Mayo is partially par
alyzed. The city authorities will soon have
him returned to the aims house in this city.

Whilst truth was one day bathing in lin
pid river, Falsehood happened to pass, and
noticing the garments of Truth on the bank
of the stream, conceived the idea of exchang-
ing his clothing for that of the bather. who
came from the bath and mourned the loss
sustained, but disdaining Falsehood's garb,
has since gone naked through the world.
Whether the origin of the xpression-''The
naked truths mythical or otherwise, it is
universally known to be the naked truth"
