The Bangor Commercials protest
against the selection of members of the
committee on resolutions by the Demo-
cratic State committee several months
before the State convention meets seems
to be well founded. Certainly it is a
curious proceeding for party to in
dulge in which boasts that it has no
bosses, but is guided entirely by the
,,eople. But then Democratic profess
sion and performance are very different
things.

MR.. REED AS AN AUDITOR.
kate Fields Washington

When Congressman makes a speech
he thinks well of there ISM man whose
attention he appreciates as an auditor as
he does Mr.. Reeds. The ex-Speaker is
really the man at whom half the talk in
the House is aimed, and one young ora
tor says that the only regret he had
about his speech which held, the House
for a couple of hours lately was that
Tom Reed did not hear it. 1t is also
said that Mr.. Reed, for once, was a little
regretful that he had not heard it.

The Athol Water Companyis organized under
special act of the Legislature of Massachusetts,
which gives it a perpetual franchise:
Atho1 is one of the most prosperous and rap
sets, having present population of $500.
The works were built in 1876. The water,
taken from the highla DIS above Athol, is dis
by gravity to the town below.
The earnings of the Company are largely in
excess of operating expenses and interest
charges.
The present and prospective value of this
property renders these bonds attractive to in
vestors desiring a safe as well as profitable in
yestment.

The Bangor Wing suggests as posi-
BILE reason of the Bangor Commercials
protest against the selection of the COM

chosen to represent the fourth district is
Mr.. Henry Hudson Of Guilford who in
the last Democratic State convention OPP

Some time ago complaint was made by
certain Augusta Republicans that the
Kennebec Journal did not represent the
whole party, and so it was concluded to
establish an organ that should fill that
long felt want. The outcome was the
publication of The Kennebec Republican
issued once a month. We have been
favored with several copies of the paper,
and have perused it with great care in
order to learn how a newspaper
in Augusta goes to work to rep
resent the whole party. About two
thirds of each issue has been
taken up with glowing panegyrics upon
the life, character and public services of
the chairman Of the Republican State
committee, illustrated with woodcuts,
while the remaining third has been de-
voted to abuse of Gov. Burleigh and the
newspapers which are supporting his
candidacy. If this paper is repre-
senting the whole party then the
inevitable inference is that the
way to represent the whole
party in Augusta is to blow terrific and
continuous blasts in favor of one candi-
date and against the candidacy of every
body else.

The statement of the Argus that the enforce
ment of the prohibitory law under Sheriff Cram
for the past year cost the taxpayers Of the
county nearly $1,000 more than the enforce
ment of the same law did under Sheriff Webb
for the preceding year is not seriously disturbed
by the figures given in yesterdays PRESS
Argus.
1t depends upon what ones idea of
seriously disturbed is. The Argus
alleged that Sheriff Grants enforcement
had cost the county $1,000 more than the
enforcement of the year before. The
PRESS pointed out that while it had cost
more it had returned more in the shape
of fines, and that the net result of it was
that the county was IS, 900 better off than
the year before. This may not in the
Argus's opinion seriously disturb its
statement. but in the opinion of every
body else it will not only seriously dis
turb it, but completely overthrow it,

story, entitled ''ThoSe Souvenir Spoons,

A characteristic New England town
meeting is described 10y Anna c. Bracket

traced to a remote antiquity. The article
is attractively illustrated by ALB. Frost.
