A correspondent ofan exchange wants to know what bifurcated skirts or bicycle dresses are. So far as the editor has in vestigated the subject, bicycle dress for ladies is a two legged dress similar to pair of pants, only little more so. It is rather full about the hip pockets and q trife loose in the region where a man generally strikes a match, while the bottom around the ankle is tied to keep out the mice. This kind of dress cannot be put on over the head, but the wearer must sit on the floor and pull it on the same as she does pair of stock ings, one on each foot; and she must Le sure to get one foot in each skirt. She must also be sure to get the right part in front, and should remember and not get too gay imagining she is man.

but an act of common party justice to con-

That he has proved himself ian able,

well fitted him for the important duties OF
the office. Gov. Bodwell, with whom Mr..

With all this business experience, COM

fitness of Mr. B. for continuance in this

That trinity of buccaneers, Cleveland,
Chamberlain and Fithian, are after the
American merchant marine again. Our
shipbuilders will accept the gauge of
BATTLE without Understanding the
gravity of the situation. The American
ship has whipped every foreign foe she
has ever tackled and she can whip do
nestle traitors. The buccaneers control
the present discredited house by so large
majority that they can probably pass
almost any measure they decide to push.
But, in the Senate it is different. Sink
the pirate craft in the Senate Sink her
in the House. if possible, but if not, she
can and must be sunk in the Senate.
The American people don't want for
eign ships under the American flag They
know the American merchant marine can
never be rebuilt that way. They have
said so plainly enough They want Amer
lean ships built in American yards. This
is a corollary of the elections. They want
constructive, not destructive legislation
on the subject.

Prepared to Do His Duty.

The prosecuting attorney in western
Kansas village had been out with the boys
the night before and taken a leading part
in a free fight, in which one saloon had
been cleaned out and considerable damage
done to the glassware and fixtures in an
other.
In the pursuance of his regular duty as
an official he appeared before the police
magistrate the next morning, fully sobered
and ready for business. In front of him
was stack of lawbooks, and he held in
his hand a warrant for his own arrest on
the charge of drunkenness and disorderly
conduct.

The Election Of a State Assessor.
(Aroostook Republican,

Among the important State officials to
be elected by the incoming Legislature is
a member of the board of State assessors.
The act creating the board makes the term
of office six years but at the organization
the first term of the officers to be elected
was one for two years, one for four years,
and one for six years. The act also pro
vides that one member shall belong to the
leading opposition political party. At the
ensuing election, Hon. b. +. Chadbourne
of Biddeford, Democrat was chosen for
the term of two years, Hon. Frank Gilman
of Bangor, for four years, and Hon. Otis
Hayford of Canton, for six years. AT
this election, four years ago, the Republican
caucus, in order to settle a controversy
over the matter of locality, adopted resolu-
ton that the section of the State east of
the Kennebec river, should be regarded
as the eastern district. Three eastern
candidates were presented at the caucus !;
Mr.. Gilman of Bangor, c. Z. Oak of Carl
bou. and Hall c. Burleigh of Vassalboro.
After warm contest, Mr.. Gilman was
nominated and elected, Mr.. Burleigh be-
ing the leading candidate against him.
The death of Mr.. Gilman made an ap-
pointment to fill the vacancy necessary,

Burleigh and confirmed by the council.
At the next Legislature, two years ago,
Mr. Burleigh was elected by a large ma
jority as the eastern candidate, he resid
ing east of the Kenncbec. The term of
Mr.. Gilman, four years, thus filed out by
Mr.. Burleigh, expires this winter, and it
is this place upon the board which is to
be filled by the coming Legislature.
1t will be seen, therefore, that Mr.. Bur
leigh, by appointment and by election. has
| occupied his place upon the board but
about one-half the full term provided by
the act establishing the board He will
appear before the caucus as a candidate
for reelection. Why should he not be
granted reelection? Precedents for
State offices are in his favor, and, as we
have seen, the argument of locality has
been settled II he has been an able, faith

bath Enterprise, Dec. 81

With the effort constantly being made
by towns desiring to gain manufactures,
Bath or Bath people will be required to
do something handsome before it can at
tract new industries. A special town
meeting at Houlton has just voted t.
abate the taxes for ten years on all wool
working manufactures hereafter estab-
lished there with capital of $50, 900.
The vote practically insures the establish
mcnt next spring of 100000 furniture

a town meeting to see what assist
ance will be given parties who wish to
put one of the idle shoe shops there in op-

new enterprises these things must be con-

Kinds of Politicians.

The editor of THE Point of View" de-
partment of Scribners says:
We are called a nation of politicians. 1t
Is very far from being true, but there are
very many politicians among us, men
whose calling is politics, and who get
what they most care for, or try to, from
politics, and there is a larger and less OBJ
gious class who have strong interest in
lolitics because they find in it a duty that
Iolne od them like, and that some perform
I'll the more faithfully because they don't
ike it.
