IT is evident, from recent intelligence,
that Maine has lost her iron mining and
smelling industry, which in years past
fourished at the Pembroke and Katah-
din iron works. Operations were sus-
pended at Pembroke long ago and in 1890
the Katahdin works were shut down.
A very fine grade of charcoal pig iron,
suitable for car wheels, was made at
the latter place, and a railroad was
built to connect the plant with the Ban
gor and Piscataquis line, but the low
prices prevailing for some time past
made it impossible to carry on the bust
ness at profit Now the machinery
has been sold and shipped to Pictou,

JOSH BILLINGS used to say of long
sermons that if you couldn't strike 'ile'
in thirty minutes it was very evident that
you were either boring in the wrong
place or had mighty poor gimlet. If
preachers generally could realize how
much their congregations appreciated
short sermons, especially in the summer
time, they would. give their ideas in a
more condensed form-would boil them
down as it were. These remarks are not
prompted on account of any complaints
here and have no local application what
ever. But we have often heard good
speeches and good sermons spoiled be-
cause the speaker did not know when to
quit. Brevity is the soul of eloquence.
The truly eloquent man is the one who
says much in few words.

AN organization of German voters is

AN organization of German voters is
perfected which will be one of the most i'm
portant factors in the politics of the state.
Delegates were present from all the larger
counties and which have large
German vote. It was christened the Ger
man-American State association and by
laws were adopted setting forth the object
and plan of the organization. The asso-
citation will be political in the sense
that it will not affiliate with any political
party, but will vote for the party and can
didates which give promise of relief
sought. The political feature of the
organization will be the repeal of the
prohibitory law.

A FIERCE battle is raging among the
peoples party and the democratic party
of Kansas in regard to the question of
fusion. A week or ten days since the
leaders of the respective parties met in
Kansas City, Missouri-just why Kansas
was not good enough soil upon which to
hold such conference we are not advised,
unless the explanation is to be found in
the fact that the prohibitory law is not
found on the statute books of Missouri,
and for that reason the democratic part
of the crowd were allowed to have their
way. They met at the Midland Hotel,
did these representatives of the laboring
men OF our state, where the rates range
from 81 to Sc per day. Perhaps this is a
trivial matter to refer to when we con-
slider that it is not the poor man DOR the
laboring man who attend these confer.
ences and make these bargains whereby
they themselves are bought, sold and
bartered like so much merchandise.
Allow us to digress long enough to ask
why it is. that these silk stockinged in
dividuaIs, who, perhaps, never did an
honest days hard toll in their lives,
should shape the policy OF the new party
which claims to be the party of reform,
and of the democratic party which claims
to be the poor mans party? Why few
political bosses, who only care to manipu-
e. e. kl,osr 81,
and who care nothing for the people ex-
cept as they can use them to advance
their own personal interests, should be
allowed to consummate, without any
authority, tsuch deal, whereby the only
idea to be considered is the distribution
of offices among themselves and their
immediate followers, is question for the
reformers to answer. Did you organize
for ideas or for Office? Is principle and
patriotism your cardinal doctrines, or Is
it patronage and the distribution of
spoils? We do not speak of these things
to discourage the fusionist in his one
idea of beating the republican party, for
the sole purpose of securing the Offices,
but we would like to ask what you-the
rank and file-expect to make out of it
for yourselves? So far as We can see it
will make but little difference to the re-
publican party whether the opposition
fuse or not. II they follow the plan
mapped out by this conference held in
Kansas City, thousands Of republicans
will return to their old party and many
of the democrats. who place principle
above spoils, will vote the ticket which
nearest represents their ideas and that is
not the peoples party either.

The Deadly Cigarette.

Despite all that has been said con-
corning the evil effects of cigarette
smoking, the pernicious habit seems to
be steadily increasing and adding con-
stantly to it's roll of victims. If cigar
cite smoking could only be cried out
against on account of the deleterious
effect it has on its devotees, it would be
bad enough in all conscience, but the
trouble is that men who smoke cigar
cites don't seem to care how offensive
they may be to others, and SO puff and
blow clouds of the noxious smoke in
the faces of people on the streets,
offices regardless of the fact that they
are making consummate nuisances of
themselves. / can understand, writes
a shrewd observer in the Detroit Free
Press, how hair-brained dudes and
boys may easily fall into the cigarette
smoking habit-a cigar or pipe
is altogether too heavy for their
use - but what puzzles me is
how great, stalwart, sensible men
can ever so far forget themselves
as to go about with one of the little
paper sticks in their mouths. It GER
tainly looks as ridiculous to see q full
grown specimen of manhood smoking
a cigarette as it would to see a stately
matron blowing soap bubbles, and still
there are any number of fine fellows
who are welded to the cigarette and
are seldom without one between their
lips. 1t is said that many of the
brands of cigarettes that are displayed
on tobacconists' shelves are tinctured
with opium, and if s1ich be the case that
may explain the fascination they have
for so many people. Within week I
read al account OF the suicide in an
eastern city of man past middle age
who was as sturdy and clearheaded q
veteran-he was a soldier for forty
years-as ever wore shoulder straps.
This man knew to be an inveterate
smoker of Turkish cigarettes that he inn
ported himself, and when learned Of
his sef-destruction the thought imme-
diately occurred to me that the habit
referred to had turned his brain and
induced condition of dependency that
led him to take his own life. Moral:
Stop cigarette smoking before it drives
Jon insane.

Last Friday evening it was announced
that Miss Emma White, a young lady
living in this town had gone off with
Mr.. A. w. Spruill, a young widcwer
of Perquimsns county, to be married.
Mr.. Edward Mccoy, to whom she
was also engaged and Mr.. Geo. Leary,
the girls step father, hearing of the run
away went in hot chase after them.
When they arrived at the point at which
the runaway couple had stopped they
found that the pair had been happily
linked.
This, of course, caused much dissaris-
faction. SO much so, that Mccoy and
Leary were both arrested, taken to
Hartford and tried for disturbing the
peace. After giving bonds for their APP
pearance to the Superior Court they
returned home.
On Monday last an officer was sent
here from Hartford to re arrest Mccoy
and Leary, there being other warrents
issued against them.
Tuesday the following charges were
brought against them:
State vs. Mccoy and Leary, carrying
concealed weapons, Leary discharged,
Mccoy guilty, fined $50 90 and costs.
