The people of Maine have been familiar
for years with the names of land and invest
ment companies in all parts Of the West and
South; and it is welcome change to notice
now the formation Of such company as was
organized yesterday, for the development
and sale of lands In this State and around
this city. 1t Is not week since Wagner
Palace car, managed by a smooth-tongued
hired agent, took load of Maine capitalists
out to an Indiana town in the hope of get
ting from them capital to develop that place.
There are in and about this city and In this
county many unimproved lots of land that
are as worthy inducements to capitalists
as the lots in the remote towns of Indiana !;
but they need advertising abroad and the
help of persistent and shrewd management.
The formation Of company of local business
men to do this is a new and welcome de-
parture. and their success will be awaited
with general interest.

To one remaining at the battlefield of
Gettysburg through the last year the pill
grimases Of veterans must have taken on
the aspect of one grand review of the veter-
ans Of all the armies Of the Union. State
after State has been dedicating its monu-
ments with the accomplishments of veteran
parades. This week fifty or sixty monu-
ments erected by Pennsylvanians have been
dedicated, and the survivors Of sixty-six in
fsntry regiments, nine cavalry regiments and
seven batteries that took part in the battle
Joined In the parade. The first of next
month the Maine veterans will be there to
dedicate their monuments; and the Maine
Commissioners announce In our advertising
columns the particulars Of an excursion that
will doubtless take several hundred Maine
veterans to the ceremonies. And so goes on
thi. increasing coming and going at The great
battlefield that is becoming, more than any
other battlefield, the Mecca of patriots.
