The New Railroad Commissioner.

The nomination of Hon. Joseph
b. Peaks of Dover, for chairman of
the board of railroad commissioners,
will be very gratifying, not only to
his many friends in Eastern Maine,
but throughout the entire State. Col
Peaks is a seif-inade man. He was born
in Charleston, Maine, educated in the
common schools and at East Corinth
academy. He has held many positions of
public trust and responsibility, ending
with his election to the Senate of 1898.
Col Peaks won an honorable record in the
war of the Rebellion. He went to the
front as member of the Sixth Massa-
chnsotts Regiment, which was mobbed in
Baltimore. He afterward served two
years in the First Maine Cavalry and was
taken prisoner ut Brandy Station, and
escaped. He was wounded at the battle

of Aide, where Col. Douty was killed
For three years he served upon Governor
Connor's staff. In all these positions
Col Peaks acquitted himself well.
He is one of the most energetic men IN
the State, self-reliant, and an indefati-
gable worker in whatever business claims
his attention. He is one OF the best
lawyers in the State and has been highly
successful in his chosen profession. we
predict that Col Peaks will make record
in his new field of labor that will be alike
honorable to himself and to the State

That Congressman Boutelle is an able,
forceful and eloquent speaker even his
squirming political opponents admit. But
he made a speech in Chicago on the occa-
sion of Gen. Grants birthday anniversary
last week that political opponents us well
as political friends enjoyed. 1t was a
speech that captivated the audience at the
first and held it until the last. 1t is diff
cult to select any part of his remarks to
afford adequate impression of the whole
but We take these closing words relative
to the character of Gen. Grant:
He was great captain He was
great American, and tho great power that
finished the impulse for his military sue
cess was his devotion to the best interests
of his country without regard to its
effects upon himself. He subtracted no
time that belonged to the cause to look
after personal interest
No more beautiful chapter in the rela-
tions of men with one another can be
found than that simple, almost stole
like, but so manly as to be Godlikc,
affection that existed and was maintained
between Grant and Sherman and Sheri-
dan from the beginning to the end.
He never sought to attract attention,
but there never was soldier of the Wes-
tern army or the army OF the Potomac
who ever caught sight of that calm, quiet,
impassive but forceful face who did not
feel his arm strengthened and his heart
quickened for still greater execution in
behalf of his country.
There is one fact in connection with the
final overthrow of the rebellion that to
my mind distinguishes General Grant
from almost all other men whom have
known, and that is his refraining from
entering the conquered city after Rich
mond bad fallen. (Applause.) 1 can con-
coive no greater NANTES tations of self
control, of the grandeur of self attain
ment, of the absolute subordination of all
that makes pride in man, that was ex
hibited by General Grant when he turned
from the most memorable event in the
history of the American republic, where
he had received the surrender of the mill
tary representative of fallen Confeder-
acy, and calmly proceeded back to Wash
ington to tell the President all about it.
He was a great man. He rises higher
and grander with every passing year.
There are more such assemblages as these
being held with every year that comes and
goes, and as long as American patriotism
shall be a living essence the name and the
fame Of tho quiet tanner of Galena, the
greatest military captain of this age, shall
DO held in reverence and affection by the
American people.

A HOUSECLEANINE SONG.

II is coming, sisters, coming.
Don't you hear the distant humming
or the mop and broom and dustpan
In wild, fantastic jig,
With the carpets, tacks and hammer
Keeping up constant clamor,
While we don the dingy dampness
OF -outwash-d day rig?
Happy we as pigs in clover:
Let the silvery suds slop over,
And never mind the puddes,
On the parlor floor, my dear.
Cold left-Overs warmed for dinner,
Husband swears by saint and sinner
That it's all the "blankest nuisance"
For house cleaning time is here.
For all that you mustn't mind him,
But Just hunt around and find him
His collar studs and kerch efs
Mixed up in the general tous;
And Revenge is sweet" just mention
with casual inattention
That when he lets YOU vote YOU won't
Have time for cleaning house.
And it's conf G, sisters, coming,
That is what he distant humming
Of your fin de steele woman's
Congress means as sure as fate
Then well drop the mop and buster.

Won't we have Jolly tumble when
We clean the Ship of State!

The Press and Sound Money.
(Iowa State r egister. }


Whatever differences may exist among
Dcs Moines newspapers, the four dailies
of this city are of one mind on the cur
rency question-they are all for sound
money. For a while it looked as though
the Leader would hesitate to take firm
and positive position on this question,
but it has decided to stand With those
who oppose the free coinage of silver at
a ratio of Is to /. Newspapers do not
make public opinion as much as they re-
fleet it. There are times when a news
paper must stand out boldly for hat it
believes in, even if It's subscribers do not
believe as it does, but generally speaking
a paper is with it's readers. An editor
does not do all the editing. Every man
who reads oxerts an influence in that d.
rection. A newspaper is partnership
affair to that extent. We believe that it
is best for all interests that the question
of currency be not made one of party di-
vision. We are all interested in money,
an abundance of it, and every dollar a
good one The business and commercial
interests of this country demand stabili-
~ and confidence Tinkering with the
currency and the dire results which fol-
lowed, during the session of the last Con-
gress, has taught even the Democratic
party some sound sense.

who happened to be an eyewitness of the
recent freight train collision, says that he
has always wished and hoped to see two
trains smash together, but he never cx-
pected to have his desire gratifed. TO
what extent can he be held responsible for
the accident? And speaking of this sub
ject, a man who lives in that part of Paris
variously known as Pleasant Valley and
Hungry Hollow, says that he has on three
separate occasions had very vivid dream
of a train going off the embankment into

He isn't at all superstitious, but wouldn't

Now if that should occur, would any
share of the moral responsibility attach

The Ellsworth Enterprise thinks that
within a few years Maine will be shipping
cattle to the westward and be making a
good profit therefrom We are inclined
to think that it will be a number of years
yet. if ever. Should that time come it
will be because that western people come
to appreciate that the beef raised in Maine
is of a better quality for the same reasons
that our dairy products are of better
quality than those of the West. We do
think. however. that the time is at band
when little attention should be given in
this State to the raising of beef cattle No
doubt some of the increase in prices of
beef is due to scarcity. No doubt also
is that the area of land In the West which
may now be profitably used for grazing
purposes is considerably less than a few
years ago. This condition is likely to be
felt more and more. Perhaps beef may
never go back to the former low prices
but it cannot remain long at its present
altitude. There may not be big returns
from raising beef cattle in Maine for Sow
eral years yet but we believe that time is
sure to como.
