Biddsford Well Pleased.
T Biddsford Evening Times


The clamor for the vacancy on the Bid.
isford municipal bench. cecasioned BY the
removal Of Judge Hamilton. was brought
70 an abrupt termination Tuesday
afternoon BY Governor Burleigh's sp-
pointment Of Col. Edwin J. Cram
The news Of this appointments is hailed
with delight by very large majority of
Biddeforas good citizens, regardless OF
political affiliations. Col. Cram is not A
politician, in the sense in which that word
is commonly used. bat his Republicanism
Ia none the less genuine or deep-rooted.
The rank and file Of Biddeford
Republicans are pleased at his success,
and the representatives of the opposite
parts, almost to man, are delighted to
know OF his appointment to so exalted and
honorable an office. Col Cram is . man
whose social and political record is clean,
whose iarge-heartedness is plainly evil
denced in his daily life, and whose honesty,
intez gritty and fair -mindscness have won for
him the highest respect Of his fellow citi-
lens.
He was bora in Parsonsheid, in this
county, Oct. II. lS47. In his native town
he received = common school education and
then fitted for Bowdoin college. graduating
from that institution in the class of 1873.
While working his way through college he
taught school 10 various sections Of the state
and after his graduation from Bowdoii he
took the principaIship of the Kenpebunk high
school, which he flied with credit for seven
years. Then he turned bis attention to
iaw, entering the office Of Strout, Gsge &
Srout in Portland az student. In May,
884, he was admitted to the Cumberland
county bsr, and shortly sfterHsrd began
the practice Of his profession in this city.
For seven years he has ably officiated as
recorder of tbs Biddeford court, often oc-
oupyiug the bench in Judge Hamilton's alb
sence.
In the contest FOR the judgeship vacancy
Col. Cram has conducted himself very
quietly, honorably and with exceeding dis
crsiion, putting 10 no personal effort in his
own behalf Till the vacancy actually existed.
He hsd the backing Of large number of
warn friends in this section OF the county
and state. their personal letters, rather
than petitions, a,tesIing TO the inter
est they Rad in his behalf. Col. Cram is
man whose social and political
record is clean. whose large hearted
ness is plainly evidenced in his daily life,
snd whose honesty, integrity ard fair
mindedness have won for him the
highest respect of his fellow citizens
That his appointment meets the pop
ular spprovsi OF large majority of
York county citizens. and tbst he will pre-
side as judge Of the Biddeford municipal
court with dignity, impsrtiality and honor,
there is not the slightest shsdo~ Of doubt
Gov. Barleigh has made wise decision
and one that he will never have occasion to
regret

Grass Plots for Poultry.

IL you have laid off grass plot for
hens. one Of the most Objectionable feat
ures is the dried grass from last years
crop. Burn the plot over so as to clean
it off thoroughly, and the hens will be
less liable to become crop bound,as they
will eat the long dried grass if it is diff
cult TO find green food early in the sea

divide the plot and sow the seeds of

the purpose, and grow some kind OF
green food, changing from one yard to
the other, as occasion requires.-Mirror

Bath Times: As is to be seen by figures
given elsewhere, Bath pays the penalty of
her increased prosperity in big jump Of
her tax. But 10 1890 it is to be remember
ed We were taxed on . rate of 2 A mills,
and we now pay at the rate Of 2 3-4 mills.
II must be- remembered also that we
can's have our cake and eat it
too, however much we might wish
to. The property pays the tax,
and certainly an Increase of taxation
of s4,35l 20 in ten years is no more than
an enterprising city like Bath ought to do.
la the next decade our increase of tsxstion
will be less percepiible, for it will be steady,
and not in ten year Jumps. 1t also appears
from these figures that Bath alone psys
over half the taxes Of the whole county,
and that our ultro city friends ought not to
begrudge US two representatives.
