Bath men are on the broad grin over q

that city recently cleared Ella per ton on =
big ice deal with New York brewers. They
say that while . humber Of the solid men

newspaper fake.
A certain reporter at Maine baby show
had the tenerity to declare that nothing
particularly remarkable in the way of ba-
bies was present. Strange to say he is
still alive.
But few towns ia Maine can be found
where all the heaviest tax payers will come
out and vote to tax themselves as they do in
Caribou. and as they did in school district
No. 2, last week, when fifty Of them voted
10 raise $40 900 to build school house. 1t
Is such public spirit as gives these Aroos-
!ook towns the splendid reputation they
have as "hnstling places, and which make 8
outsiders anxious to get into them to
make homes and help build up business.
These are glorious days of rest for the

We will say for the information Of the
New Age that Mr.. George X. Smith, OF
Winthrop. the Republican nominee for
Register Of Deeds. was q soldier and a good
one. The Age by inference at least en-
deavors to convey contrary impression.
The last issue of the New Age pays a
very feeling tribute to the late Francis W.
Hill. 1t says;
What Mr.. Hill was TO his home, only
those could know who knew him best. In
the business world, among its giants, he
was regarded, by the strongest, as the most
striking example of q strong man; but IN
his home circle, among his best beloved,
there he was the strongest and the tender
est, the gentlest and the kindest. With the
strength of his character, the breadth and
keenness of his ability as everywhere rec
ognized. and withal so absolute in his own
convictions, he yet possessed q pleasing and
charming personality. in his open sincerity
and frankness, and in the warmth and
kindliness of his manner.
Notwithstanding the "original package
the Portland police officials still have an
occasional "spilling-day.r On one such
occasion last week they emptied into the
Back Bay nine barrels, two half barrels
and "a sprinklers of ale; nine jugs, 81
quarts and five pints of hard liquors, and
1884 dozen bottles of lager beer. This is
good sample of how Maine prohibition
prohibits.
A thrilling accident occurred at East
Dedham one day last week when four

plank found the child being dashed sgsins,

taken out unconscious, but was resuscita-

The Republican Journal does not antici-
pate any very great spread of smallpox al
Searsport. Only three persons have it and
ia two Of them at least it is in the form Of
