LETTER FROM JUDGE EMERY
He Writes of the Genoa Law Court
to Chief Justice Peters

He Writes of the Genoa Law Court
to Chief Justice Peters.
The Bangor Commercial prints the
following letter to Chief Justice Peters
from Judge L. A. Emery:
Dear Chief:
think this last month al June j. the
first month since my ma jority i'll which |
have not read sons IGW. | can not say
have not looked INTO a laS book for the
whole month"; as in Genoa | visited the
law courts and Cooked into" the few law
books saw there; but didn't read them
because | know not Italian. With this
exception ! have been absolutely shut
OF law books and law studies.
After most ravishipg and exciting days
IN Genoa. Milan and Venice, came here

restful and idyiiic life you can imag me

high order, and idle away most OF nv
time in dreaming or walking and listen

tinual feast OF beauty. We are about
1000 feet above the sea where our villa
stands.
The law court at Genoa was very inter-
tSllHBf SIX Judges SAT around q table
shaped like the letter l. They wore
robes and round, visorless caps; the coun-
sci wore robes but no caps; the papers
were all manuscript; counsel argued very
Niyaciously with much gestieuiation he
judges interrupted often and sometimes
sharply; all, the judges and counsel,
seemed much interested in the question.
There was no reading from books except
from the statutes, and, indeed, a copy of
the statutes and one text book were all
the books | could see in the court room.
Opposite the judges was an oil painting
OF Victor Emmanuel in royal robes, and
on table between the legs of the "U''
was the mace. When the court rose this
mace WAS taken away by an officer. The
judges were splendid looking men; they
looked like scholars and thinkers. The
counsel were younger men but were good
looking.

Solid for Reed.

The frantic efforts of the democratic
newspapers to stir up strife in the re
publican ranks is amusing in the ex-
IRENE. Here's the New York Sun
quoting the St. Louis Republic as say
ing that Names senators and repre-
sentatives, not to say those of the
other New England states, are against
Reed as candidate for the presiden-
tial nomination.
Senator Hale says: Il am heartily
and emphatically in favor of Reeds
nomination, and l regard his chances
as better than those Of any other can
didate"
Senator Hoar of Massachusetts says
that the talk about opposition by the
Massachusetts senators is ridiculous
stuff
Mr.. Manley predicts that the five
Yankee states will be solid fer Reed.

A Cheerful Symptom.

With an increase of over $50, 900, 900
in dntiable imports in this country dur
ing the last eight months as compared
with corresponding period of the year
before, Sir William Vernon Harcourt,
Chancellor of the British Exchequer,
was fully warranted in saying, as he
did at the Lord Mayors banquet last
week, that the present great increase
in English trade with America was
most cheerful symptom" The farmers
of the tariff of "perfdy" and "dishon,
or" will undoubtedly feel equally joy
GUS.
But the American people as whole
will fail to see where the Cheerful
symptom" comes in. Representative
Barbour, Connecticut, stated the mat
ter in nutshell at the Silk Associa-
tion's banquet when he declared that
''for every yard of cloth made in for
eign country and brought here and
sold there is a yard less cloth to be
made in this country; and for every
dollar which we pay for foreign labor
we pay dollar less to our own wage
earners." However, let the British
people rejoice while they may. A Brit
ish Ministry will not always be in
power at Washington. There will be
an appeal to the country" in this Re-
public next year, and then it will be
the turn for the American people to
laugh. Morning Advertiser.

Pillows for Summer DAYS.

Hammock pillows of hay mixed with
dried sweet smelling herbs is the ideal
cushion for hammock or veranda use,
and if forgotten and left outin summer
rain has only to be emptied of its con-
tents, which, dried in the sun, will be
as good as new and more fragrant than
ever. The hay is pleasant to the touch
and is not heating like feathers or
down. One of the prettiest of the pill
lows is of old pink linen. On it are
some big tumbling chrysanthemums,
simply outlined with heavy white linen
floss, and its three inch hem is supplied
with eyelet holes, through which the
lacing is easily run.
Another pleasing pillow is linen in
the natural, undyed, unbleached color
familiar in grass cloth and is embroid-
cred in white and green. The design
in this instance is dogwood, and the
blossoms are worked in long and short
stitches in place of mere outline. The
lacing is a heavy white cord and the
effect is most delightful one. In con-
trast with the pink it makes charm.
ing picture, and it would be difficult to
find any hammock better equipped.

Eloquent Figures.

The new Democratic tariff continues
to carry delight to the enemies of
American industries and dismay to
American toilers.
From September 1, 1894, to March /,
1895, dutiable imports increased over
$SO,OOO,00O as compared with the cor.
responding period of the year before,
when the Mckinley tariff was in force.
Free imports at the same time fell off
over Sl2,000,0O0.
A similar comparison shows that un
der the Wilson German "BiIl of Sale, ~
a measure expressly designed by it's
authors TO extend our foreign trade, ex.
ports are nearly $7O,OOO,OOO less than
they were under the Mckinley law.
The tariff of 'perfidy" "and "dishonor''
cuts American producers and wage
earners both ways. 1t cuts down the
demand for American goods both
abroad and at home. 1t closes foreign
markets to American products and
opens our own markets to foreign
products.
And meanwhile the deficit in Federal
revenue daily grows apace. 1t is now
over S5O,OOO,OOO.
Such is Democratic statesmanship.
Such is tariff for revenue only" Such
is the way that the Democratic party
"lightens" taxation and unshackles
American enterprise and skill.
This Republic has been entrapped and
hoodwinked by Democratic tariff re-
form" for the last time Morning Ad.
