The Rsvsi Against The Plum Must.

The fight between Fred Emery Became
and +. w. Plaisted for the Kennebec repre-
sentation on the Democratic State commit
tee, reveals the fact that the few remain-
ing Democrats in Kennebec county are
hopelessly disrupted. Their caucuses. in
their intense bitterness and Wild turmoil,
leave the famous Kilkenny cats quite in the
shade. The moot surprising thing about
the whole matter is tho closeness of the
vote. This 10 especially significant when

fighting the great Trust led in person
by one who has come to be considered
the crown prince Of plum pluckers. He
has arrayed against him, therefore. the whole
power Of the Federal patronage. In face of
this fact, his opponents, through the
moot strenuous efforts. and by their own
count, were only able to defeat him in
Hallowell by . majority Of less than 10
votes in total Of about 100, and in Angus

3l4.

ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING

When a sugar refinery wharf needs a
new floor the old one is not thrown away
or sold to junk dealer. but carted into
the refinery and boiled. The planks are
saturated with sugar, molasses and a
variety of other things not usually deemed
edible. The refinery process, however.
separates the absorbed sugar from the
Impurities, and the refiuers make very
handsome saving by boiling up the old
floor. Nobody need be shocked at this
economy, as sugar refining is all that the
name implies.
Colorado City is beautiful and fash
ionable place. but sojourners of sound

The hotel clerk has q hacking cough, so

boy that brushes coats and blacks boots,
SO has the news vender and the typewrit-
ing young woman. When at length the
desperate stranger takes trolley car to
visit the beauties of the little city's sub
urbs a consumptive takes his fare and
another holds the break.
In speaking of the great number Of
of successful chess players of the Jew
ish race, and of the contest between
the two Jews. Lasker and Steinitz.

the Jewish Chronicle dwells upon GER
tuin traits which are prominent in
Jewish character. 1t maintains that the
Jews are the best chess players because of
their possession Of mental qualities which
have always been useful to the race. such,
for example. as quickness Of apprehen-
sion, tenacity of purpose. readiness in the
application of resources. the power of
estimating probabilities and an intuition
which enables them to seize the oppor-
tune moment for developing action.
These traits of mind have been marked
In all the Jews who have won fame and
fortune in the playing of chess.

one accord the senators on that side have
insisted strenuously that they are not, and
have not been, interested in legislation for
