Little Girls Original Definition In Court
Of "What Is Sin?"
An incident worth recording occurred
before Chief Judge Sedgewick of the
superior court in the trial of the action
brought in behalf Of Ida Goldberg to re-
cover SIS, 900 damages from Edward
Ridley & Sons for injuries received in
being knocked down and run ever by
one of the wagons of the firm. The girl
had her arm fractured. The defense was
that she was responsible for the acci-
dent by her own negligence.
Lottie Goldberg, sister of the plain
tiff, who is only II years of age, was
called to the witness chair to testify to
the circumstances of the accident. She
was such little child that she was
questioned as to her understanding the
nature of an oath, in order to ascertain
whether she should be allowed to testify.
"Do you understand the nature of AL
oath?"
"Yes, sir. 4"
"What is it?"
''Tt is a swear"
On cross examination the little girl
was asked:
"Wtat do yor mean when you say it
is swear?"
"Well, it IS that have to tell the
truth"
''If you don't tell the truth. what
them"
"That would be sim.
"What is a sin?''
"a bad mark from God," answered
the little one.
The venerable chief judge was visibly
touched at this answer of the child and
remarked, "This is a very intelligent
ch;!d and perfectly understands the OBJ
legations of an oath. - She was thsn al
lowed to give her testimony. New York

The Directors of the kennebec Log
Driving company met at Hotel Heselton
Monday last and assessed the tax on
logs driven by that corporation tho
present season. Assessment WAS made
on about one hundred and ten million
feet.
The tax for driving logs in the Main
River was IS cts per thousand, on the
East Branch cts, amounting to nearly
$4,000.
The tax on the Dead River logs has
been assessed at 10 cents per thousand
on Dead River North Branch at 20 cents
on Moose River from Moose River Bridge
to Moosehead Lake at AZ cents and foI
towing logs across the lake at Is cents
Thus i will appear that the expense

the inclemency of the weather, Mr.. Stet-
son wisely substituted another entitled
"Some leaders that have met
Mr.. Stetson has fine presence a well
modulated voice, aud gave in an interest
ing way some character sketches of the
great leaders he had met in this country.
and in England. Those selected were
John B. Cough, Gen. L. 5. Grant, Gen.
w. L. Sherman, Rev. c. II. Sturgeon,
Hon. W. f. Gladstone, and Josh
Billings. He had evidently made "A
careful study of those qualities in these
masterful men, which gave them their
power over their fellows. His descript-
ton of the effect of the oratory of John b.
Cough upon his audience was very
eff ctive piece of word painting. The
lecture was fresh, graphic and left with
his hearers strongly marked portraits of
the men named above.
Mr. Stetson has kindly promised to
give at some future date the lecture
originally advertised for this occasion,
and his pleasing address thus briefly
noted is a pledge of the interest and
profit of the one to follow. All Interest

Massachusetts, Politics.

GOV. Greenhalge was re-nominated for
term saturday last by the Republican
convention, receiving 1863 votes to 39l
for Congr, ssman Morse. Ex-Congress-
man George Fred Williams is the Demo
cratic candidate There is not the slight
est doubt about the re election of Green
halge. 1t is only a question as to the
size of the majority.
The Republican platform speaks out
in no uncertain terms. Its leading feat.
ures are:
No public funds for sectarian purposes
Sectarian animosities should be buried
Upholds the free public school.
Favors adequate, logical and scientific
protection.
Demands sound and honest money.
Favors international bmetallism.
Denounces prize fighting and urges
more effective legislation
Upholds the Monroe Doctrine.
Favors restricted immigration.
FAvors civil service reform.
Favors progressive temperance legisla-
ton.
Fayors wise corporation laws.
The protection plank is as follows:
First and foremost staids protection.
Our opponents when seeking votes de-
nounced it as injurious, immoral and un-
constitutional; when clothed with the
responsibility of power, they enacted a
tariff which was ayowedly and intention
ally protective. But while 1t recognizes
the principle of protection as wise and
necessary, their bill is so unequal aud
unfair as to deserve all the scathing
d,nuneiations with which they them
selves baptized it, 1t does rot give pro.
lection as right to all, but sells it as "A
favor to some. 1t is partial, sectional
and hypocIitical. The protection we up
hold is equal and universal. We are not
pledged TO any schedules. We only
pledge to each American industry such
protection as shall oqualize differences in
! the price of labor, and to that the farmer
and the miner is as much entitled as the
manufacturer and the artisan. In deter
mining that We are not bound by pre-
! cedents or by theories; We are governed
by the teachings of experience, and are
as ready to learn from the experiments
of our adversaries as ourselves, from
failure as we'll as from success.
