A Promising Enterprise.
(Presque Isle Star-Herald.)

1t is understood that Hon. Albert A.
Burleigh has secured charter of incorpo-
ration for company organized for the
purpose of carrying into effect the land
settlement project which was outlined in
the columns of the Star-Herald some
months ago
This scheme of Mr.. Burleigh is in sub
stance, to form stock company for the
purpose OF purchasing township of good
land for settlement, selecting one whose
price, quality of soil and location make it
desirable for the purpose in view. Mr..
Burleigh believes there are we'll located
townships of fine clearing land which can
be purchased for 81 per acre or possibly
less. Having bought the township his
plan is to have it lotted out, and then to
survey and construct roads throughout
the tract in such manner as will best &C.
commodate settlers. This preliminary
work done, the lots will be thrown open
to purchasers for actual settlement at
price that will be within reach of the class
who seek such an opening. and yet such
as will afford a reasonable margin of
profit to the company after paying for the
land and subsequent outlay incidental to
putting the township in readiness for set
Element.
In this movement President Burleigh
is proceeding upon plan fraught with
the same originality and practical wis
dom that characterized his plan for
a railroad 1t is based on sound, business
principles and promises, when put into
practical operation, to be entirely success
full and full of abundant benefit to the
county. The railroad being completed,
the great problem that arises is how the
county is most speedily and economically
to open the vast tracts of fertile soil,
now covered with forest, to desirable
settlers. How are these wild town ships,
scores of them as full of native wealth as
those already settled, to be made available
to actual settlers, and offered to them on
terms that will start toward Aroostook
large tide of immigration: All things con-
sidered the most feasible plan yet
preached is the one inaugurated by Presi-
dent Burleigh. Should the State under
take such an enterprise the selection of
a location for settlement would be less likely
to be well chosen; the movement would
invite efforts and influences savoring of
jobbery and manipulation, the plan would
create suspicion of favoritism, and give
rise to jcalousies and wrangling between
different sections. Finally, the class of set
tiers thus admitted to a township would
be of u mixed character, and far below the
standard in thrift and intelligence that a
company organized on the plan proposed
by Mr. Burleigh would be able to main
tain.

Fears are entertained in Hawaii that
Japan, when she shall have terminated

Japan could rely upon the negative sup

A recent accident in New York, the

take, although the person who COM
pounded it was graduate of a college
Of pharmacy and should have been able to
read the Latin. If 1t can be shown. and
there are good reasons for believing it can
be, that mistakes are more liable to occur
when the prescriptions are written in
Latin than otherwise it will not be long
before they are written otherwise, al

that the price cannot long stay above
