IN authority on the subject saws:

An authority on the subject says:
The very first item in the treatment OF
q sprain is perfect rest of the limb until a
surgeon can be summoned. Reduce the
swelling by hot lamentations rs hot as can
be endured. Change as often rs once in
three hours. If piece of rubber cloth be
not at hand, use common newspaper.
Wind it ON carefully outside the hot cloth,
This will prevent the escape of the steam
and keep the cloth from cooling. A good
way to prevent the hands from being scald-
ed is to place the hot dripping flannel in a
towel, then taking hold of each end of the
towel wiring it until the flannel is dry
enough to spply. Avoid violent move
ments of the joint for some weeks after
the injury. If the joint becomes stiff,
move it gently each day; also rub gently
with some stimulating lotion, such as
ammonia liniment. In some cases serious
disease of the bone may follow. This is
the result of the original accident and can
not be avcrtcd by treatment. In any case,
however slight, it pays to keep perfectly
still until the injury is repaired.

The treasury receipts for the first ten
days in June show a decided improve
ment but demonstrate at the same time
that Notwithstanding the Senate bill pro-
yided for about fifty millions more in
revenue than the Wilson bill, it is in
sufficient. The revenue the past ten days
was greater because of the increased sugar
imports and the fact that the whiskey
which was allowed to escape the new law
is nearly disposed of and the new stock
is being taken out of bond. There is no
prospect that the average In the revenue
will much exceed that OF the past ten
DAYS and there will be deficit of little
less than fifty millions for the year. 1t is
generally conceded that some change will
have to. be made in the tariff law in order
to meet the expenditures of the govern
ment. Had the Wilson bill become law
there would have been deficit of nearly
one hundred millions the first year, fair
sample of what may be termed Democratic
craftsmanship. The people of this cOun-
try must have short memories indeed If
they allow the Democratic party to again
get an opportunity to tinker the tariff,
imperil industry and pay political debts
by the grossest favoritism.

will be almost the absolute master of

will compose the committees in accor-

may not be able to bring about precisely
such legislation as he would quite wis h

be able to prevent any legislation that he
distinctly disapproves. In any event the
public mind will associate him with
the record of the next House, and On
that record he will go before the conven-

The Need Of 4 Drill Hall.

One of the most imperative needs OF the
city of Augusta at this time is suitable
drill hall for the Capital Guards. 1t is
in this city that the annual State mus
ter is held. Here, too is located the States
permanent muster field, but notwithstand-
ing all this the fact remains that Angus
ta-the capital city of Maine-is doing
less for its military organization than any
other city in the State.
The following places in Maine have,
during the past year, provided new armor-
les for their local military companies: :
Bath, Skowhegan. Waterville, Bangor,
Houlton and Auburn. Portland has COM
menced the building Of a $50, 900 ar
mory, having already appropriated s25,-
900 toward its construction and a COM
mittee of the Lewiston city government
has reported unanimously In favor of q
new armory for that city to cost about $685.
600. The Auburn company has recently
moved into splendid new armory cost
ing about $4,000. In view of these facts
we submit that the city Of Augusta can
not afford to let the Capital Guards con-
tinue without proper home while every
other military company in Maine is COM
fortably housed. At the present time the
company is using the Red Mems hall for
drill purposes. The accommodations here,
however, are wholly inadequate, and, as
a result, good drill work is almost an
impossibility. Again every good armory
should be provided with a separate room
where each soldier may have his own in
dividual locker, and where the property
of the State may be safely stored and suit
ably cared for.
But there is. another phase of this mat
ter that appeals with peculiar force to
Augusta people. There is today in our
city no hall sufficiently commodious to
meet the needs of a large political or re-
ligiols convention, or even brilliant
social occasion like a governors reception.
These events mean something to city
A large convention will put a great many
dollars into local circulation, and stimulate
the city's prosperity. In the old days.
before Granite hall was transformed into
our present beautiful and comfortable
opera house, Augusta was favorite city
for big conventions. Its central location
gave it special advantages for this pur-
pose. Since that time, however, we have
had none of these gatherings for the
simple reason that We had no hall large
enough to accommodate them.
In building hall for an armory, why
not have it also constructed to meet the
requirements of any large convention or
other gathering that may desire to meet in
our city? We believe that one story
wooden building large enough for both
purposes can be constructed at cost Of
between three and five thousand dollars,
and we believe, in view of all the circum-
stances bearing upon the matter, that
such an outlay would be in the nature Of
an exceedingly profitable Investment for
the City,

Thou did'st not give cent,

Madly the sore-heads flew,

At thy devoted crew,
And, as their numbers grew,
Swore till the air was blue

Dreaming they wear his clothes,

Matt Quay is reported as saying that
the Republican party has made mistake
in opposing free silver at this time and
should have devoted all it's political breath
to the tariff. Before ever Matt Quay was
heard Of outside his own circle the Re-
publican party came into power, held that
power and exercised it with vigor and in
telligence, and the characteristics which
commended it to the country, which
rallied to its support the best elements of
society, were its sound principles and the
fearlessness with which it advocated and
sustained them. At this critical time the
vast majority of the Republican does
not believe that free silver coinage at a
ratio of 16 to / and undertaken by this
country alone would be to the advantage
Of the country, but on the contrary would
establish silver recommendation by driving
out the gold and would bring on a finan
cial crisis the like of which we have
never SEEN Does Mr.. Quay presume to
tell tho Republican party 1t should take
no heed of these things? We think he must
have been misquoted. The tariff is
vital issue as Mr.. Quay suggests but it
isn't the only one by any means; BESIDES
the inequalities and iniustices of the
present makeshift law are bringing about
their own retribution. The Republican
party realizes that the principle Of pro-
lection to American industries is as ne
cessary to the welfare of this government
as 1t ever has been; neither will the party
lose sight Of 1t to please tho Democrats
or anybody else Mr.. Quay need not fear
for the principle Of protectionism but If
he assumes that in currency crisis the
party is to 'crawflsb, his lack of COM
prehension of true Republicanism is rs
surprising as it is discreditablc.

We wonder If Secretary of State Olncy,
and Postmaster General Wilson have ever
made up the difference that grew out of
Mr.. Olneys boorishness of manner. The
incident will readily be recalled. Olney
had given orders to his colored servant to
admit no one to his private room unless
he had previously brought in the callers
card, and ascertained whether or not the
great man desired to see them. When
Mr.. Wilson called upon the attorney gen
eral the colored watchman Of the inner
shrine, thought he might venture to dis
regard this injunction. He accordingly
ushed Mr.. Wilson unannounced into the
august presence Of his master. Mr.. Olney
was busily employed at his desk. He
barely deigned to give Mr.. Wilson
glance from under his shaggy brows, and
went on with his work. When ho had
finished his page he turned upon the
bapless tarkey, and thundered out
What do you mean sir by disregarding
my instructions? Haven't told you to
brink no one In here without first an
nouncing themg" The servant endeavored
to explain that he did not think these in
structions were meant to apply to gentle-
man Of Mr.. Wilson's prominence, but his
master cut him short with the frowning
remark: "It makes no difference who the
caller is, sir, want you to observe my
instructions" Mr.. Wilson. who is the
soul of courtesy, listened to this churlish
speech with amazement. and for once
forgot his customary urbanity. Rising
to his feet he expressed his opinion of Mr.
Olney in Language both pointed and Wig
orous and strobe out of the department.
Whether these two distinguished gentle
men have since buried their differences and
smoked the pipe of peace history has not
been recorded; but there is good reason to
believe that, in the deep recesses of his inner
consciousness, Mr.. Wilson is not a pro-
found admirer of the Massachusetts, states
man.
