Stevens to Mccreary.

In response to inquiries of representa-.
tive of the KENNEBEc JOURNAL, who asked
ex-Minister Stevens as to the correctnesa
Of assertions made in the House of Repre-
sentatives on Friday by Congressman Nc
Creary, rejecting on his official conduct al
Honolulu. Mr.. Stevens said most OF Mr.
McCreary's statements were entirely er'
roneous. Mr.. McCreary as reported, states
that when the marines and sailors OF the
Boston were landed there was British
man-of-war in the harbor, also Japanese
war ship. Mr.. Stevens says there was no
British war ship of any kind then at Homo
lulu and that the Japanese iron-clad did not
arrive until several weeks after the men OF
the Boston landed. On the committee OF
public safety that requested the landing OF
the men of the Boston for public security the
English residents we're represented. Other
erroneous statements of Mr.. McCreary were
the rehash of stories made up by the bittel
opponents Of American interests in Hawaii
or by ultra supporters of the dead mon
archy.

A recently invented pocket fire escape is

Artificial wood for. furniture. roofs, insu-
lators, ETC., is now made by burning mag
nestle together with wood, shavings, saw
dust, cotton, hair or wool.
A process of forming artificial whalebone
from animal hair, consisting in subjecting
the hair to softening bath, then to bath
of acetic acid, and finally placing the mass
under great pressure, has been invented.
A new head rest for dentists chairs has
been patented which is adapted for the use
Of ladies with deliberately dressed hair and
is so arranged that the head may be firmly
held without discomposing the fashionable
couture.
An Austrian has invented a flying ma
chine that moves through the air after the

by a small steam engine, but its inventor
hopes to find some way Of discarding steam
and using electricity in its place.

To the Republican party belongs the
credit of giving to our city all it, public inn
provsments. The beautiful bridge that
spans the Kennebec, the paving on Water
street, the Telfordizing Of Grove street,
and the good start which was made upon
an adequate and modern sewer system. were
all products of Republican rule. 1t is true
that they cost money and, temporarily,
caused slight increase in our tax rate;
but we apprehend that few citizens of Au-
gusta would now care to be without them.
The Republican administration of at
fairs in this city was upright, progressive
and fully alive to the best interests of the
community. A year of Democratic rule
has served to impress this fact very thor
oughly upon the people of Augusta, and at
the coming election they will be glad to
once more place the management OF city
affairs in Republican hands.

EAGER for 4 Changs.

We have now had nearly year of Demo-
cratic rule 10 Augusta, and the residents OF
this city are eagerly clamoring for change.
1t has been brief sway, and one character
lied alike by scandal and incompetence.
We are aware that our Democratic city
government 10 endeavoring to make q
great point of the fact that it
has made a small reduction in the tax rate ;
but discreetly fails to note the fact that this
has been largely rendered possible by ma
tural increase in the valuation of the city -
returned by Republican board of assess
ors. 1t has also pursued peanut policy
in all of the city departments to such an
extent that the first duty that will devolve
upon the next city government will, doubt
less, be the passage of a number of de-
ficiency bills. They will also proba-
bly, leave us legacy of several
law suits, as result of their inefficient
management. In the face of such facts
the small decrease that has been made in
the tax rate amounts to nothing. 1t is Z
very easy matter for any city government
to reduce the tax rate by failing to
keep up city improvements and permitting
= legacy of debt to run over to its successor.
What public improvement has been made
in Augusta under the present administra-
ton? The city 10 suffering for want of
decent sewerage, and, under Republican
rule,a good beginning was made upon sys-
tenn that, when completed would have been
credit to the city. What has the present
city government done in continuation of
this worthy work. As correspondent
points out in another column it, failure to
push forward this work so necessary to the
health of our citizens, has been responsi-
BILE for no little sickness, and constitutes
a constant menace to the public vel
fare. What permanent improvements
have been made on our streets? 1t is true
that some filling has been done upon the
Gage street extension; but the residents
of that growing section well know that they
are indie bted to the Republican com.
missioners of Kennebec county fol
this needed improvement and no'
to the Democratic city government
of Augusta. Never in recent years have
our streets been so poorly cared for a. they
have been since last March. During Thu
greater part Of the winter the principa
business street in the city has been in I
positively dangerous condition, and thu
number Of accidents that have occurred
because of incompetency in the street de
partment would fill = good sized volume. l
has been said that this condition Of affair
has been intentional, part in fact of
general plan by which the present Demo
cratic city government has hoped to per
petuate itself. This policy isl to permit tn
streets to 60 neglected throughout tn
whole year, menace to the safe
ty of al who use them, in Of
der that large crews of men may be pu
to work upon them week or two befor
the spring election. We do not believe tbs
thescitizsns Of Augusta win fail to STAN
their vigorous disapproval upon such
bare-faced and indefensible programme.
