A statement appeared In one Of the
Sunday papers yesterday TO the effect
that the Governor had appointed his wife
iady commissioner Is he wosId's fair.
This statement IL absolutely false. Its
motive and Inspiration are apparent II
u Of . piece with other mean asd dis
pieabIe attempts which have been made
10 certain quarters Of late, ~ write dovn
the Governor. The Governors Of States
hare absolutely n0shinx 70 do with these
appointments. They are made exctu-
sively by General Palmer, the Presadent
of the commission. The ladies' selected
are pSid b. the United States govern
mens by the day for the time actually
devoted 10 The work. The wives Of the
Governors Of several states are among
President Paimers appointments. 1t
may be that mean and despieabie false
hoods like the one just noted may be
made TO accomplish the purpose for
which they are designed, but we doubt
Il. The people OF the Eennebec valley
are not easily deceived In such matters
and have most always been found upon
the side Of truth and decency.

Above the rapids we ontinue on through
.moother water and coon come to the Sim
mona farm on the north bank of the St.
John. This farm was cleared up many
vpars ago for the purpose of raising hay
and grain for the lumber woods but lat
terly it has not been so we'll cultivated. On
the opposite side of the river we find come
splendid fly fishing at the mouth Of John
son brook and after enjoying it awhile push
on and few miles brings Us to Seven Islands.
We are now some seventy miles above
Fort Kent but find the St. John nearly as
wide here as at Woodstock. Seven Islands
has for many years been the most impor-
tant point in all this forest region aud has
long been the depot OF supplies fer large
numbering operations. The old Cary farm
ia situated on the north bank Of the river
and includes also the islands which give
the place its name, some of which contain
many acres of fertile land and produce
large crops of hay and grain. Many years
ago Hon. Shepard Cary of Houlton carried
oh an immense lumber buainess on the st
John and Allegash and cleared up this
farm for the purpose of producing supplies
aud also to serve IS depot for his
extensive operations. The house is
a large story and . half structure
standing near the river bank and
coutsining q number of ample rooms the
largest of which is the big dining room, with
lis long table, 1t which many hungry men
have been fed. In the kitchen 10 a huge
stone fire place with its long iron crane
upon which are hung the big pots in which
many a toothsome meal has been cooked.
There are a number of large barns upon the
farm the boards with which they are cover
ed having beea sawed with . whipsaw
from the clearest AMI soundest of pine
lumber. Upon the main land above the
house il large tract of level land Of great
fertility and under good cultivation. This
large farm was for years the property OF
the firm Of Cary & Cunliffe and afterwards
of the firm Of Cunliffe & Steven, during
which time large numbers Of fine blooded
animals we're kept upon the farm. The
estate nov belongs 70 Mr.. Arthur De-
Chaine. a former resident OF Caoada, who
il extensively engaged in farming and lum-
bering. On the opposite aide Of the river
IL the large farm of Mr.. Frank Currier,
which consists Of many acres of fac, pro-
ductivs land and has comnodious and well
constructed buildings. Mr.. Currier has
lived here for many years and has engaged
quite extensively ia farming and lumber
ing, in which business he has been very
successful. There are number Of other
farms in the immediate vicinity, making
quite . little settlement, the farthest from
tide water on the upper ST. John. The SET
tiers were ct one time organized - the
plantation of Seven Islands, and for num-
Der Of years the returns from Seven Islands
were snxiorsly looked for before the result
| Of an election could be formally declared.
