From the existing condition of things In
this city and vicinity 1t appears that the
city council has done wisely In voting to pur-
chase another steam fire-engne At first
sight and considering only the size of the city
1t appears to be a peculiarly useless piece of
extravaganza; but when other facts are con-
sidered the wisdom of the action becomes
apparent. Portland Is in a great measure
dependent upon internal resources for her
IRE protection. Quite frequently fires occur
that tax the present force to its utmost limit,
Ii any new turn of affairs occurred at such
times fire would become the master and
larger portion OF the city would be laid
waste. An additional engine on the ground
would be worth millions in such case, for
no help outside of the city could be had un-
der one hours time. Saco is our nearest
neighbor that could spare any steamers. In
securing aid for this city train would have
to be sent from Portland and then returned.
and this could not be done much under an
hour. Lewiston and Bath are the next
nearest available points. Here too, locomo-
tives and cars are kept only part of the
time SO that again time would be consumed
In getting the help we needed. Far better
have an engine in the city that is not used
oftener than once in year, If on that one
occasion, 1t saves houses and stores from de.
struction. In regard to fires, to quote the
words of an authority, 1--WE are dealing with
an unknown quantity that must not be tri
fled with-it is far better to have twice as
much apparatus as we need, than not to have
enough"

The suggestions of Mr.. B. Walker Nc
Keen contained in letter in another COL
umn as to the ways in which the State can
assist the agricultural community will be
read with interest. One suggestion in par
ticular, that farmers who improve their
buildings and farms be not subjected to ad-
dltlon taxation on that account deserves
good deal of careful consideration. As it is
now the farmer hesitates to patch up hole
In the roof of his d yelling, lest the assessor

The object of the Democratic filibustering
tactics was to keep the Republican congress-
man from Virginia, who had been fairly
elected, but counted out out of his seat They
failed, and Mr.. Smith was seated on Mon
day in spite of all these disreputable ma
neuvres. Their experience ought to have
taught the Democrats that their
policy Of obstruction while Mr.. Reed
is Speaker and the Republicans
soildly sustain him, was destined to ig.
nominlous failure and had better be aban-
doned. But Bourbons learn nothing and
forget nothing, so they started in again yes

The action of Speaker Reed during the ex-
citing events OF the past week has been mag
nifcent. His courage. ability and calmness
cannot be too highly praised. He has made
the whole country his debtor in striking at
the very vitals of the dragon of filibuster-
ing that has wasted millions of public mon
ey and been the most formidable enemy to
legislation for the public interests His de-
meanor under the impotent abuse of mouth
ing demagogues, who see their occupation
gone, has been superb throughout, and no
state has ever had greater reason to be proud
of a great citizen than has Maine to be proud
today Of the indomitable and intellectual
power of the Speaker of the Fifty-first Cen
gress. He is battling for the best interests
of the people who, In spite of the silly til
rades of the Democratic press, understand
the issue involved and cordially approve the
course and admire the strict fidelity to duty,
