Mr.. Willis of Hawaii has written let
ter to Secretary Gresham, in which he
declares that he has seen nothing to justify
Admiral Walker i'll his fears of British in
reference in Hawaiian affairs. 1t will
he remembered, though, that Mr.. Willis
is novice in diplomatic work. While
nobody will charge him with the dizziness
and astounding lack of penetration that
characterized Paramount Blount, it can
scarcely be claimed for him that he is any
match in the game Of diplomacy with the
skilled intriguers who represent the
British government In this respect he is
vastly inferior to Admiral Walker, who
has q wide knowledge of the world, and
whose long and able experience in foreign
countries has given him n power of pene-
tration not possessed by the amiable gentle
man of rather mediocre attainments who
now represents the United States at
Hawaii We have no doubt but what the
Congress of the United States will have
little difficulty in determining the relative
weight of the opinions upon the outlook
of Hawaiian affairs expressed by Mr..
Willis and Admiral Walker and their
decision will not be in favor of the diplo-
matte tyro from Kentucky.

What the Union Mutual Life Has Done.
(The Boston Standard

ne DOSUOI iotduQtTC.
While the report of the Union Mutual
Life for 1894 will probably not show as
much new business written as in 1898,
the number of policies will be about the
same, though of course, for less amounts,
which is far from being a disadvantage
when it is considered that medium sized
policies are more certain of renewal than
larger ones The company has made nc
especial push for business by offering
bonuses or any other extra allowance, it
having been the rule during the year to
reduce rather than to increase expenses.
The aggregate amount of new business
for the year will be something over IS,
000 600. The company has again been
fortunate in its death losses. In 1898 they
We're some $50, 900 less than in 1892, while
in 1894 them were some $4,000 less than
the previous year, Notwithstanding that
policy holders are continually growing
older and the amount of insurance is ON
the increase, which is an cvidnce of care
full prudence on the part of the company
in its selection of risks. 1t is too early
to obtain a detailed statement of the as
sets, liabilities, surplus, etc. but it is safe
to say that whatever the assets may be-
they are of the first class, as not single
bond owned by the company was in de-
fault of interest Jan. 1, 1895. which
speaks remarkably well for President
Richards able financiering; in fact, every
department of the company's business
shows careful and conservative manage
ment, while its fairness and promptness
in the payment of death losses commends
it to the insuring public.

Senator Frye's denomination by en-
thusiastic acclaim was a foregone conclu-
sion Lowell said it was the American
idee to make a man q man, and let him
be. 1t is the Maine idee to find the best
men for the public places and when found
to keep them in for spell. To this policy
is due the great influence in public affairs
that the Maine congressional delegation
has welded for many years. Frequent
rotation in prominent and responsible
otlic es brings mediocrity too often to the
top. Senator Frye has been in public life
almost continuously for thirty years. He
was elected representative to Congress in
1870 and served in six successive Con
crosses until elected senator to succeed
Hon. James G. Blaine in 1881. He was
reelected in 1888 and again in 1899.
His next term will expire in March, 1901,
when he will have had congressional
career of 81 years. 90 of them in the Sen

IRE of his ambition, and it is said that he
intends to retire on the completion of his
next term. 1t will be long, honorable
useful and distinguished career-it has
been that already. Senator Frye made a
characteristic speech on receiving the
nomination last evening. Referring to
financial legislation, he acknowledged
that the bullion purchase act had been a
failure, and that the financial question
was very difficult; but he laid it down
as the correct principle for the Republican
party to maintain, that American currency
should be as good as that of any other
country and should be kept at par with
gold so long as gold is the worlds stan
dard of measure. In regard to the tariff,
he believed that the next Congress would
be obliged to revise the present faulty law,
he stood by the Mckinley bill, and re-
buked what he considered an inyidious
attempt to weaken the party's protective
policy, but he finally defined that policy

The Tramp Question.

The past year has been notable among
other things for the astonishing growth OF
the tramp nuisance along criminal lines.
In former years the professional "obo''
has been looked upon as harmless mendi-
cant. This view of him is fast passing
away Society is coming to recognize the
fact that idlencss is the mother of crime,
and that no class of irresponsible men can
ing livelihood from a tolerant public,
without cndangering the welfare Of the
community.
In our own State of Maine this nuisance
has been especially notable. Professional
tramps ovcrrun our county jails to an ex-
tent that has not been known for years,
and the number of crimes committed by
the knights of the road, including in
general belief an exceedingly brutal mur-
der, has been in excess of the record made
by this class of people in any previous year
of the States history.
buns and chronic dead beats should be
dealt with promptly and severely. There
is no place in civilized society for men of
this character. The large cities of any
state, with their night and day police
forces, can i'll afford to deny to the rural
districts, not provided with such safe
guards, the strongest immunity that the
law can provide from the depredations of
this class of Migrants. The farmers of the
State, who are often obliged to be at work
in fields distant from their homes or in
forests must have some reason to believe
that their wives and daughters will be free
from the insults of class of despicable
characters whose only theory of life is
that the world owes them a living and
who exist upon the toloration of society.
There has been in past years altogether
too much mandy pambyism in dealing
with this tramp question. The people of
live in rural communities, have some
right to be heard upon this subject, and
whenever they have found opportunity to
give expression to their views they have
done so with no uncertain sound. We
sincerely hope that this question may be
dealt with in practical manner and that
in the years to come the tramp nuisance
that has been such burden upon the
taxpayers of our state during the past year,
and such menace to the peace and wei
fare of its citizens, may be effectually and
finally disposed Of.

The value of the message is apparent
frcm the estimate made of it by the Port

one or two party matters, finds itself ''on
the whole in substantial accord with
him. The Argus further says;
His words on these important matters
arc the words of thoughtful, well in
formed, public spirited man-such as
Henry B. Cleaves always has been and
doubtless always will be. In our opinion
the address, as a whole. is credit to the
man who occupies the chair of the Chief

instruction and profit to the people of the

Thursday evening, as a candidate to sue
coed himself in the United States Senate.
This of course was the expected result of

of Mr. Blaine, who entered the Garfield

BURLEiGH-PEARCE.
Quiet but Beautiful and Deeply Interesting
Wedding in Fort Fairfield.
(Fort Fairfield Beacon.)

(Fort Fairfield Beacon.)
A quiet, homelike wedding, involving
little display yet great interest and ele-
gance, took place at the residence of
Joseph Pearce, in Fort Fairfield, Tuesday
morning The contracting parties were
Preston Newell Burleigh, of Houlton,
second son of Albert A. Burleigh, presi
dent of the Bangor q Aroostook Railroad.
and Miss Kate Cook Pearce of Fort Fair
field, eldest daughter of Joseph Pearce.
The ceremony was briefly and happily
performed by Rev. G. b. Hescock, pastor
of the Congregational church of this vii
lage, of which church the bride was a
member
The bride was attired in travelling
costume, and Immediately upon the COM
pletion of the ceremony, the bridal party
started on the first regular passenger train
from Fort Fairfield on the B. & A. for
Boston. Many of Mrs. Burleigh's friends
accompanied them to the depot, and good
byes rice and old shoes went flying
through the air after them as the train
was starting New Years morning
seemed an suspicious time for two young
people to begin life journey together;
and the fact that the wedding trip was
taken on the first train over the road of
which the groOm's father was the pro-
jector and is the president, added interest
to the occasion.
Among the relatives of the groom who
were in attendance upon the wedding
We're: Mr.. and Mrs A. A. Burleigh
his parents; Everett f., and Parker p.
Burleigh his brothers; and Miss Frances
l.. Burleigh, his sister. OF the brides
connections, besides her fathers family,
were: Narney Pearce cher uncle), his
wife and daughter; Mrs. Isabelle Stevens,
her aunt; and Miss Fannie Pearce her
cousin.
The newly married couple will take up
their residence at 81 Oxford street. Cam
bridge, Mr.. Burleigh being student in
Harvard law school He will terminate
his studies there next summer, and COM
mence the practice of law at his home in
Houlton, where promising future awaits
him.
This marriage is the elimination of an
attachment formed some years ago when
the young people involved, with their
families, lived near neighbors to each
other in the wilds of north western Wis
consin.
Though the wedding was strictly pri-
vate, many outside parties showed their
appreciation of both bride and groom by
sending elegant presents and tokens of
esteem. The gifts received from both Mr..
and Mrs. Burleigh's relatives were to
express the matter briefly, most en-
phatically numerous, beautiful and cost
ly. 1t was our intention to name them in
this short sketch; but, had they been
enumerated, the brevity of the sketch
would have quickly disappeared They
were found to be so great in number and
variety, and to comprise such appropriate
and elegant selections, that in despair any
attempt at description in reasonable
space was given up; and a simple enum-

pearance and quality. But those among

Pleasant Words for Senator Frye.
A lust Tribute to His Ability.
(Biddeford Journal.)

The denomination of Senator Frye is
the natural and just tribute to his
ability. Taking the seat vacated in 1881
by James G. Blaine, he had done service
to the country and honor to the State he
represents, and his continuance in office is
the part of wisdom. Not a state in the
Union ranks higher at Washington in in
fiuence upon national affairs than old
Maine, and it is due in no small part to
her policy of recognizing the worth of
her men and rewarding their ability
The New Hampshire Republicans pro-
claim Senator Frye as the ablest political
orator in America. Maine is proud of the
compliment, and begs to assure New
Hampshire that his ability as speaker is
but one of his merits.

as equalizing the difference between
American wages and foreign wages. That,
however, can probably be accomplished
without restoring the extreme rates found
in some schedules of the Mckinley tariff.
Mr. Frye has always been radical on pro-
lection, but it is doubtful if even he would
counsel restoration of that tariff in its
entirety, after the experience of 1890 and
1899. The degree of protection indicated
by the Minneapolis platform is not ex-
IRENE but reasonable and carefully adj
justed so as to equalize differences between
here and abroad, guard our home markets
and maintain our standard of wages and
living A significant and loudly APP
plauded passage of the speech was this,
which needs no comment:
