COUNTY OFFICIAL PAPER.
A CoWARDLY PRESIDENT.

1t is reported Of President Cleve-
land that in a conversation with Colo
mel Oates, Representative from Ala
bama,) touching the veto of the SeIgn-
forage Bill, Mr.. Cleveland said, My
God, Oatesl the bankers and bond
Lolders have got tho country by the
leg. They can drain the Treasury in
forty-eight hours"
An exchange, in commenting on
Cieveland's remarks says: There
was "a time in the history OF this
country, away back in the 3O's, when
the power Of the bankers was equally
as powerful as it is to-day, when the
money power "had the country by
the leg" A Democrat then, as now,
had possession Of the White House.
The bankers demanded that the
United States bank be ra-churtered
but jackson, who was at that time
President, did not say, ave are lost,
unless We surrender" but realizing
the responsibility Of his position, and
recognizing the necessity Of prompt
and decisive action, completely non
plussed the penurious and covetous
bankers by exclaiming in tones Of
thunder, IF you have got the country
by the leg, BY the eternal! I'll take
you by the throat"

STATE BOARD OF HEALTH.
Local Boards Urged to Report All Cases Of
Pulmonary tuberculosis.

The second quarterly meeting of the
State board of health for the current year
was held in the secretarys office in the
State House yesterday. The members
present were the president, Prof. F. c.
Robinson, DR.. G. M. Woodcock, DR.. A. R.
G. Smith and the secretary.
An encouraging report was made by the
secretary that local sanitary organizations
have been effected in some towns in which
a local board has not existed before, and in
a large number of plantations.
OF the state boards of health, ours, by
the publication of its circular, "On the
Prevention of Consumption, was the first
to make practical application Of the then
somewhat new, but we'll established fact,
that pulmonary tuberculosis, or consump.
ton, is an infectious disease. That circu-
lar has had wide distribution and has un-
doubtedly done much good in pointing out
to the public the special ways in which con-
sumption is spread and the precautions that
should be observed to prevent infection
But the State board and some of the city
boards of health feel very strongly that
something more should be done; particu,
larry it is believed that in the interest Of
this class of sick persons, and
for the safety of their friends
and attendants, every case of consump'
ton should be reported to the local board OF
health, and that the local board should
transmit such notifications to the State
board. Then there would be some assur-
ance that this circular would be put into
those hands which need it the most and just
when they do need it. The report of the
registrar of vital statistics, now in the
hands of the printer, will show that more
than 1900 persons died Of tuberculosis in
the State of Maine in 1892. The question
is: Would it not be well to know of those
cases before they are deac, and know
where they areS
Believing it would the president, DR.. G.
d. Smith offered the following, which was
adopted by the board:
Whereas, 1t is now an established fact
that pulmonary tuberculosis is not only a
dangerous, communicable disease, but also
that by measures of cleanliness and disin
lection it may be in great measure con
trolled,
"Resolved, That local b1ards of health
are hereby urged to invite the cooperation
of householders, physicians and managers
, of hospitals and other public institutions ir
the direction of reporting to such loca
boards the occurrence of all cases of pull
monary tuberculosis, that proper instruc
tons may be afforded all who have the
care of such cases for disinfecting sputs
and rooms occupied by such patients, ant
all infected articles, and that valuable sta
tistical information bearing upon this dis
ease may be obtained"
The secretary and DR.. Woodcock, gave
the history of the outbreak of smallpox il
Bangor, in which only one case occurred
and the one at the National Home at Togus
where but one secondary case followed thu
first. together with histories of the reported
outbreaks ia Clifton and Frankfort, fount
not to be smallpox.

A False Report.

The friends of Jos. M. Hays, will be glad
to hear that he was not drowned in New
York harbor, on Sunday, June "a, as has
been reported. Letters have been received
in this city, to the effect that he is alive
and well, and was calling upon friends in
Brooklyn, last week. A man was drowned
on that excursion however, having the same
name which accounts. for the mistake.

The members of the Unitarian parish are
rejoicing in possessing choice picture
which now adorns the walls of their church
parlor. 1t is done in oils and represents a
cluster of white lilies with the light from a
stained glass window falling upon them. 1t
was painted by Mrs. Austa Sturdevant of
New York, who is member of the Society
of American Artists, and was given by the
wife of former pastor of this church. In
one corner is card, with the inscription ::
"For Christ Church Parish, Augusta. In
loving remembrance. Blanche ID. Curtis. "
Many Ieople in Augusta will re-
member Mr.. Curtis, who was pastor
of this church from 1875 to 1879.
He was a prominent member of the Ma
sons, of Seth Williams Post and of the
board of directors of the Village District.
He met his death by drowning in Moose
head lake, last Sunday being the 10Th ami
versary of the sad event. The services at
the unwilling of the picture were mainly
commemorative. After a vote of thanks
|
to Mrs. Curtis was passed, and resolutions
to that effect recorded, a letter was read
from Ex-Gov. Conner, regretting his in
ability to be present, and expressing in
most eloquent terms his admiration for the
picture and his appreciation of the affection
which prompted the lovely gift. He also
| paid a fine tribute to the purity and worth
of the character of Mr.. Curtis. Judge
Whitehouse followed and in tender and
most fitting language, expressed his high
estimation of Mr.. Curtis as man and a
preacher. His citations from "Lycidas'
were most appropriate and impressive. The
meeting closed with fine tribute to Mr.
Curtis from the pen of Rev. E. E. Hale, by
Rev. Mr.. Newbert.

ELECTRIC LIGHT IN WAR
Soarchlights to be Mounted on Forti-
fications for Coast Defense.

WASHINGTON March 13.--The ordnance
bureau of the army has decided to use
the electric light as a means of coast de
feuse, and in about a month experiments
will be made Mt the Sandy Hook proving
ground to determine what class of light
is best suited for the purpose. The adop-
tion Of torpedoes as means of modern
warfare has made this innovation neces-
sary. With electric searchlights mounted
on Notifications the danger from torpe-
does at night will be greatly lessened,
and this fact has been recognized by for
eign powers. Recently the ordnance bur-
eau purchased from German firm the
big electric searchlight exhibited at the
worlds fair, which is said to be the larg-
est of its kind in the world. This will be
mounted at Sandy Hook in about a
month, and ordnance officers ope the ex-
! periments with it will not only deter
mine what character of light is best
adapted to the needs of the service, but
will also succeed in obtaining an appro-
priation for the purchase of such appar-
atus for all the Notifications in the
United States.

Gus people on the American continent,
have resumed atrocities on the river

However bloodthirsty this method may
appear in this enlightened century. it is
