There is a great boom at Northeast
Harbor, and it is almost impossible to
get room. Vice President Morton has
applied for rooms for the summer, but
could not be accommodated, as there
were not apartments to be had that were
suitable for him.

It is sometimes very convenient to be a count, official, particularly when one has to travel to some extent, in the in terest of his party organizing political clubs. If it can be managed to make official business at the points one de- sires to reach, so that he can claim mile age and his five dollars per diem, it en- ables him to perform his work of organ ization cheap-but, the taxpayers. ire spective of party, have to foot the bill. This kind of work makes the old adage, killing two birds with one stone" true. He is serving his political party and his constituency at one and the same time ; but the constituency are at all the ex- pense. Nothing like shrewdness in all the transactions of life, whether public or private.

AS was predicted by the HERALD, just after our last court. lawlessness in the county has become rampant again. It always has, and always will be so. where peace officers wink at crime and try to curry favor with the lawless element. Kid-glove treatment only emboldens such characters. They must be made to respect and fear the law. The only way to accomplish this, is to enforce the law with a strong, determined hand no halfway measures-no kid-gloved handling-no apologies for performing your plain duty. Make them know and understand that if they violate the law certain and condign punishment is sure to follow. Once law breakers realize that to be settled fact, that instant they will respect the law and fear it's officers,

THE CAPTAIN OF COMPANY B.

His Men Had Sized Him Up Long Before
He Led Them Toward the Knoll.
After the first year of the war the
rank and file sized up an officer on his
merits within ten minutes of the open
ing of battle. No matter how much
they saw of him in camp, no verdict
was rendered until he had been tried by
fire. While every man is part of a
great machine IL battle, the rank and
Tile moves only as directly commanded.
We depend not on each other, but on
the man in command He must be
brave; he must be cool; he must have
good Judgment. He must know when
he is whipped and how 10 retreat to the
best advantage.
Many officers made the mistake Of
trying to pass off bravado for the genu-
inc article For ms lance, they talked
in loud tones, not thinking that the
sharp-eared men could detect the
tremor of their voices. If bullets and
shells were flying over the line
they would control their nerves and
not duck and dodge. When they look
ed around for admiration they saw
faces wearing signs of doubt.
He is holding himself up-hes no
good!" was the criticism against each
officer, and it always had sure foun-
dalton.
Nobody had any sympathy for pri-
vate who became ratified, although lit
was not always sign of cowardice, but
there was never more pitiful sight
than the spectacle Of captain break

The legend Of the Christian Church
is that its founder was born on the 25th
OF December. Whether it IS anything
more than legend, as 20 the exact
date, is very doubtful. For a great
many years before the Christian era,
the Romans had held festival about
the same time of year. the special fea-
lures OF which were feastiDg and ex-
change of gifts. In making converts
from heathenism, the Church deemed it
wisdom to leave the people festival at
the accust med date, and associate it
with the new religion. by calling it the
birthday of Christ. The most import
ant fact connected with this day is that
it marked an era Of peace on earth
