NOTE AND COMMENT.

The cause of woman suffrage is
advancing. The United States Sen
ate committee on woman suffrage
has made a favorable report, all re-
publican senator's agreeing.
Commenting on Chairman Quay's
silence to Representative Kennedy's
charges a republican senator is
quoted as saying, eve seem to be
swimming in scandals. l don't won
der Vermont almost went democratic
and l shall wonder if Pennsylvania
goes republican.
The Canadian congress have adopt
ed a resolution that demands the
right of election of their governor in
stead of having one appointed by the
British government. This is a bold
step for a colony to take and looks
as if they were trying to free them
selves from the British yoke.
Fruit growing in southern Califor
mia has a promising outlook, as the
following incident will show: A Los
Angeles man has sold 5512 pounds
of fruit from IS peach trees at the
rate of 1914 a tree. Counting 81
trees to the acre, the same yield and
price would have given him an in
come from his fruit of $54O.96 per
acre

ELECTION ECHOES.

One of the most memorable con-
tests in this section for town repre-
sentative occurred at Barton where
II ballots were taken before the
election was secured. The contest
ended at 4 O'Clock Wednesday morn
ing when W. l. Robinson, republican,
was elected by a majority of FIVE.
Besides democratic opponent the
farmers alliance had a candidate in
the field who led for nearly a dozen
ballots.
Our republican contemporaries all
deny that national issues had any
thing to do with the decreased repub-
lican vote. Yet at every democratic
rally the national issues were dis
cussed while the platforms of both
state conventions treated of national
issues. Certainly the Lodge bill and
Mckinley bill had something to do
with the increased democratic vote
in this state though not as much as
some of the outside dailies would
have us believe
Our correspondent at Waterford
has served this notice on the citizens
of that town: eff the 20 republic
cans who voted last Tuesday for the
democratic candidate for representa-
tive expect to make anything out of
it i'll a political sense, they may find
themselves mistaken at the town
meeting next March" We do not
know anything about the circum-
stances in this case but if the 20 men
referred to voted according to their
convictions they are not likely to be
disenfranchised at the March meet

THE SILENT QUA

Representative Kennedy, a re-
publican congressman from Ohio,
has been heard from and in another
column is printed liberal extracts
from his scathing reviews of Senator
Quay's crookedness Mr. Kennedy
was provoked because Mr.. Quay had
action on the Lodge election bill
postponed in the Senate. Mr.. Ken
nedy read his speech in so low a
tone that but few members of the
House heard it, and some think the
speaker did not hear it else he would
have called Mr.. Kennedy to order
In this case the innocent suffer with
the quietly and the able and upright
Senators are classed with the mil
lionaires who buy their seats, and
those like Matt Quay whom Mr..
Kennedy called "a branded criminal"
To all the charges Mr.. Quay main
tains a contemptuous silence and
thus strengthens the proof of his
guilt in the minds of many

Our South Ryegate correspondent
furnishes the following account of a
most successful country fair:
This fair was held at East Corinth
on the Sd, 4th and 5th of this month
Last winter an agricultural society
was formed, shares of stock issued at
So, vast amount of labor contribu-
ted, and the whole movement repre-
scented a desire on the part of the
farmers in this section to have a
good honest fair at home. No large
village is near and the towns of
Corinth, Topsham and Newbury are
the central ones to furnish the exhibit
ton.
The old muster ground lying near
East Corinth was leased. In old mil
tia times these grounds were popular
and the names of Gen. Ransom, Gen.
Thomas, Col. Page, Col. Taplin and
others are sacred in the memory of
the men who were the soldiers of
those good old times.
The first day was devoted to en-
tries of stock and in filling the halls
The second was the great day for
stock of all kinds. One hundred yoke
of cattle made show not surpassed
very often in this country and only
two towns produced them. Tops
ham had 60 yoke and Corinth 40.
There was a good show of horses,
colts, some fine sheep and other neat
stock, poultry, etc. The ladies were
not backward in doing their part and
the fine things in floral hall are too
numerous to mention. Agood show
H.
early date fine show of vegetables
were noted. The maple products
were the finest we ever saw, but alto
gether too small for such a sweet
producing section as this. In many
ways the farmers can assist in max
ing a good fair, but to have d good
show let every one bring out some
thing that he thinks is good.
The last day there was a parade of
the Grand Army, trotting and a cav
alcade of all horses on exhibition, etc.
Hon. Asa Dickey was introduced in
neat speech by Judge Sargent and
gave brief but spirited speech. 1t
was for the farmers and dwelt upon
the present depression in agriculture.
He pointed out as some of its causes
the present heavy rates OF taxation
and the general extravaganza of the
people. South Ryegate cornet band
furnished good music. The officers
were courteous and good order pre-
vailed. There was much to do and
the time was short as the fair was
held earlier than at first contempla-
ted, hence some mistakes were made
which will be corrected in the future.
We trust the kind of side shows will
receive close attention and that the
horse race will not be too prominent
in future exhibitions. We believe
that if the earnest spirit which has
pushed the enterprise thus far con-
tinues and strictly impartial decisions
are made and all are given exact and
even justice that this society made up
almost entirely of farmers will have
successful future

CANYONS CHANCES.

For the past week the New York
Sun has been daily printing life-like
pictures of the mouth of Representa-
tive Cannon of Illinois, who, it will
be remembered, was guilty of such
vulgarity in the House two weeks
ago. Mr. Cannon is a candidate for
reelection, but his foul language is
likely to cause his defeat. Fourteen
republican newspapers in his district
are opposed to him as well as the
farmers and the soldiers. The latter
remember that when Cannon was
asked in 1862 why he didn't go to
war that he replied with an oath,
There isn't money enough in it. !"
The democrats have put up Gen.
Samuel T. Busey, the commander of
the 10th Illinois regiment. Mr.. Can
non has been in Congress Is years
and was one of the candidates for
speaker of the present House
