A Very Strong Commission.
Bangor Commercial

Gov. Clcaves has seen fit to give Bangor
no representation upon the commission
which is to direct the building of the
Eastern Maine Insane Hospital, because,
it is said, he did not care to choose be
tween the two local candidates for the
position. While We believe that our
citizens will generally regret that there is
to be no resident commissioner, they
must give the Governor credit for having
selected very strong commission. Mes
srs. Little, Bird and Campbell are all
gentlemen whose business ability, integ-
rity and generally good Judgment need no
demonstration at this late day and we feel
certain that they will handle this extern
tive public work with credit to themselves
and the State. To this end we are safe in
promising them the cordial cooperation of
the people of Bangor whenever it may be
desired.

Dealing With The Dead.
On. Y. Tribune.)

1.-THE evil that men do lives after them. -
Wherefore it is about as well that we
should recognize the "nihil nisi bonum"
rule as the musty fraud it is. Every SEN
timent of humanity demands decent re-
spect for the memory of the dead. And
Justice requires that charges against q
man who, living or dead. is past all power
to answer them shall never be made light
ly nor without most serious purpose But
it is not always well to impair the inter
ests of the living many in order that the
record of the one dead may be spared. II
man in his lifetime commit great public
wrongs it is idle and worse to say those
wrongs shall not be righted after he is
dead. If he bring dishonor upon his
name, his name must hear the burden,
whether inscribed upon the rolls of the
state or upon coffin-lid The name of
Benedict Arnold is no less hateful, and
his treason no less detested, because for
many years he has been no more among
the living. And is the opening Of a
states treasury to thieves and plunderers,
and the sale Of its law and justice, less
treason than the yielding of its fortresses
to an open foe?
There is another consideration, even
more forcible and pertinent. 1t is this,
that the tomb of dead man must not be
place of refuge for living criminals
That, above all else, is to be borne In
mind today at Trenton. The stern inves-
tigation there is not held to blacken Leon
Abbett's memory 1t is held to correct
the hideous evils that grew up under his
administration, and to expose and bring
tn,t f,.sf . a; o., 90 n
who for years have been fattening upon
the public interests of the state. But
when those criminals skulk behind their
dead leaders gravestone and cry Spare
his memory y no rational man will
listen to their appeal And when the
friends of the dead man interpose and
seek to check the inquest, lest facts di s.
creditable to him shall be revealed, there

PRESS COMM ENTS.
CAMDEN TO AUGUSTA
And Thence to Connect With the Grand
Trunk.

The talk of a railroad between Angus
ia and Camden has been revived and the
promoters of the scheme feel much en-
couraged at the way the people along the
proposed route talk about the matter.
The Legislature granted charter to the
Lewiston, Augusta 81 Camden Railroad
Company with G. f. Macomber, J. w.
Chase, Elias Milliken p. o. Vickery, NJ.
V. b. Chase. j. w. North. F. e. South
ard, W. H. Williams and Fl M. Hamlin
as incorporators. The route as laid out
was from Lewiston, through The towns of
Webster, Wales, Bowdoin, Litchfield,
West Gardiner, Farmingdale, Gardiner,
Hallowell to Augusta and from the CAPT
tai city through Windsor China, Somer-
vile, Palermo, Liberty. Appleton, Wash
ington, Union, Hope to Camden. At
the last session of the Legislature the. char
ter was renewed for three years and
amended so that the terminus could be
either Camden or Rockland. The road
would be about 20 miles and through rich
farming country. The towns through
which the road would pass are very en-
thusiastic over the scheme and it is con-
fidently expected that should anything be
done money enough could be raised in
these towns to build the road
Camden people especially want the road
For years this progressive town has
longed for railroad connection with the
great busy world and have always been
ready to pay very liberal price for the
privilege. One good feature of this road
would be the excellent connections to be
made with the Grand Trunk and the
Grand Trunk people say they will lend
all the aid in their power to have such
road constructed, for it would give them
direct communication with the sea, some
thing they have been wanting for long
time. Rockland men are interested and
the road and the terminus should be at
Rockland. The charter allows the cleo
tricity or steam for motive power.-Cou-
rier-Gazette.

are somewhat conflicting, that
Augustus and Hezckiah Reeves,
brothers, had a difficulty during
the day, when Barrett went to the
saloon to place him under arrest
Reeves being in an intoxicated
condition at the time, eyinced q
disposition to resist arrest. The
officer went off, armed himself and
returned to the scene Of the dis
turbance. When he returned, he
ordered Reeves to throw up his
hands, with which he refused to
comply, but stepped out of the
crowd and told Barrett to shoot if
he SO desired, whereupon he raised
his rifle and fired twice, one shot
lodging in the gallery post aud the
other taking effect i'll tho right arm
of Reeves above the elbow and
breaking the bone, which uecessi-
tated amputation the next day, the
operation being successfully per
