Gloucester last election telling men in line

in many cases when bona tide residents of the

PEsTH, March 9, 1S94-The Hungarian In
dependents today presented to DR.. Wekerle,
President of the Hungarian Council, a me-
mortal asking that Louis Kossuth, whose
death at Turin is imminent, be accorded the
extraordinary honors which were bestowed
upon Francis Deak the Hungarian states
man who died in 1876, by the erection of a
national monment to his memory.
Dr. Wekerue refused to have anything to
do with such movement, basing his refusal
on the ground that Kossuth had forfeited his
claim to national honors, he having repeat
edly declared that he would not recognize
Emperor Francis Joseph as King of Hun
gary The refusal of DR.. Wekerle has left
the partisans of Kossuth to do honor to their
hero in any way that pleases them.
A despatch from Turin this morning says
that Kossuth passed good night and is
slightly better today.

KEoKuK, Ia, March 9, 1S94.-The State
Council of the American Protective Associa-
tion closed a two days session in this city
last night. In his annual address. President
Jackman of Boone said d:-s.The average ex-
priest is simply leech, sucking the life
blood of the councils for his own enrich
ment. We claim in our principles
that we attack no mans religion and
make no warfare on the religious tenets OF
the Roman Catholic Church, and yet we hear
these ex-priests abuse all of the peculiar OBJ
seryances of this church, and vilify and make
fun of its observances We thereby stultify
ourselves, and bring approach upon the
order and its principles by employing these
ex priests"
The council unanimously adopted a reso-
luton favoring the plan of the President,
and hereafter no ex-priest will be employed
unless properly accredited by the President.

BUCKSPORT OBJECTS.
Wants to be Separated from the West.
ern Hancock Municipal Court.

ern Hancock Municipal Court.
Bucksport people are agitating an i'm
portant change in the statute Of 1893,
municipal court.
This court has jurisdiction over the
towns of Bucksport, Verona, Orland,
Penobscot, Castine. Dedham, Bluehill,
Brooksvile, Broohlin, Sedgwick, Deer
Isle, Isle all Haut and Swans Island
Plantation, +. f. Chase, of Bluehill,
being the Judge, and \. b. Ames, Of
Bucksport, recorder.
The legislature of 1885 will be asked 10
strike off the town OF Bucksport from
this list, allowing It to resume its former
method OF procedure under trial justice.
The reasons for asking this change
hinge upon the following story:
Two years ago, when the bill went to
the proper committee, it provided that a
recorder should be appointed, Who should
have power to try all bat the most i'm
portant cases and officlate generally in
the judges absence.
When the bill passed, however, and, as
people there claim, owing to the influence
of Judge Chase and his friends, all those
provisions comforting power upon the re
corder were cancelled, even to the smaller
details, such as receiving entries, etc. So
that officer, when appointed, found him
self in a position yielding neither power
nor income.
What the people object to, however, is
the added cost of running the judicial
machine under the present scheme.
The judge lives at Bluehill, fourteen
miles distant, and as he must be sum
moned in the most trivial cases and
receives recompense in the amount OF
three dollars day and mileage of ten
cents per mile each way, justice comes
high in Bucksport, and the indiscreet
citizen who smuggles a little liquor into
town and proceeds to get gay thereon,
may think himself fortunate if he escapes
with fine of twenty-five or thirty
dollars.
1t is said that several of the other towns
included in the jurisdiction of the court
are dissat sfied, and are anXiously waiting
to see what the fate of the Bucksport pc
tition will be. If it is granted, these
towns will bly, attempt to withdraw
and general breaking up of the court is
expected.

Died, at BROOKLYN, Oct Is, al sunny
Ledge cottage, Mrs. Henrietta Bridges,
wife OF J. j. bridges. The deceased was
in many respects remarkable woman.
Hers was most positive character, and
she had strong convictions. Her standard
Of right was very high, and with might
and main she sought to reach her high
ideal. She was thinking woman and
she put her thoughts into action; she
brought things to pass. Her presence in
the sick chamber was always blessing
and benediction.
Measured by what she did, her life was
a long one; measured by years, it was but
ffty-threc.
Her husband, her aged mother, the
church and indeed the entire community,
has met with a great loss. ROBBED in
white, We believe that she has entered
the presence chamber OF the Redeemer,
where her faith, always strong but more
especially SO during the last few days of
her life, has given place to sight.
