STATE HOUSE.
Odd Bits OF News Jotted Down From the

r. +. Chalk of A ugusta, State inspector
of factories and workshops, is in Knox
county on his official visit He found
everything in good shape at the State of

The object of his visit, however is to in
vestigate the condition of the lime rock
duarries and see if something could not
be done to render them safer for workmen.
Within the past few year there have been
number of accidents due to rock falling
from the high cliffs which would be
loosenud by the action of fir. s and the jar
occasioned by constant blasting. This
will happen in spite of great care upon
the part Of quarry owners but Mr.. Chalk

overcome the menace.

PICTURES OF MAINE.
What State Photographer Gay Proposes to Do
For Our State.

w. H. Gay, State photographer, was in
the city, yesterday, and made call at the
Journal office. In conversation with one
Of the Journal editors, Mr.. Gay made an
explanation of the plan he has to adyer-
tiss this State through photography.
He has received from the State on ap-
preparation of $3.50 to perform this work.
The method which he will adopt is to visit
all the towns and cities, more especially
along the seacoast, and take photographs
of places of special interest These will
be very large in many cases and of such
dimensions as to convey good idea of the
scenes pictured.
Along the coast Mr.. Gay will procure
many very handsome views, and the large
steamers will all be photographed. The
Maine summer resorts will receive special
attention and the inland resorts too will
be visited and pictures procured with
great care.
In this work Mr. Gay will have the CO.
operation of everybody who can in any
way aid him. 1t is his purpose to go all
over the State The object of this work
Is to procure photographs which will be
sent throughout the United States to
boards Of trade, hotels, cafes, railroad sta
tions and all places where such pictures
would have tendency to advertise the
Pine Tree State. Today, Mr.. Gay will ap-
pear before the Governor and Council
and explain to them the plan which he
proposes to carry out.

RAILROAD BOOM.
Hon. P. 0. vickery will Put Several Thousand
Dollars Into Proposed Line.

Eyes. the board of trade of this city
will consider the proposition of building
the Lewiston, Augusta and Camden pro-
posed line of railroad at its meeting, this
evening"" said one of the leading men OF
this city to Journal man, yesterday, and
he continued talking in an enthusiastic
manner in the interests of the new line.
~ think that the road can be built and
I believe that if the Grand Trunk people
are consulted and tho Lewiston CAPITALISTS
interested in the matter the line will be
run over this section as now planned The
fact that the Camden people are growing
warm over it is evidence that now is the
time to push the matter.
Possibly some of the Camden people
will be in attendance at the meeting of
the board of trade, this evening, and have
something to say on the subject, and If so
1t will have tendency to increase the
enthusiasm among the members of the
board and the business men of this city
The Camden business men appointed a
committee the other evening at bust
ness mems meeting and this committee
may be present, this evening, to talk with
the board of trade Of this place.
Zone reason why l think this road
should be built is because it would give
Augusta two lines of railroad to the
Portland wharves and tide water at
Camden. The line would connect with the
Grand Trunk at Lewiston and large
amount of the -four now consumed in this
vicinity would be placed here at a much
lower rate than at the present time.
Competition is the life of business
and this new road would increase the
business Of the Maine capital. In my
opinion the majority of the business men
of this city would favor the building Of
the proposed road and would subscribe for
stock if the matter is correctly brought
before them"
A Journal man interviewed Hon. 2. o.
II am in favor of the road being built
and l will subscribe several thousand
dollars to the stock. 1t will be good
thing for Augusta and l think should at
once receive the attention of her business
men,
At the meeting of the board of trade
this evening Mr.. A. w. Brooks will make
an address in which he will speak of the
building of this line of railway. Follow
ing his remarks the meeting will be open
to any one who wishes to speak and it is
expected that the metting will be a very
lively one Every member of tho board is
urgently requested to be in attendance at
the meeting.

OkKWOOD PARK.
Col. H. G. Staples Interviewed About Opening
II Tor Coming Season.

There has been quite number of rum
ors, about lakewood park this spring, as
to whether it would be opened or closed
for the season. A Journal man called
upon Col. H. G. Staples, the proprietor,
Saturday, and after a brief conversation
asked,
Colonel will Oakwood be kept open
during the summer"
Mr.. Staples hesitated little previous to
answering and then said
''That depends mainly upon the senti-
ment OF the people, l do not include
those whose unreasoning minds lead them
to think that this world was made for
them only. 1t would not be good judg-
ment to undertake to force anything upon
the people that they do not want. 1t is
not my purpose to do so.
The vigorous attempt to create unjust
prejudice against the park by all sorts of
misstatements, unklnd and ungencrous
remarks has always been met by the
management in kindly spirit In my
opinion the over Jealous sometimes do
harm under the name Of doing good.
Suspicious minds are not safe for guild
ance or counsel. If Oakw God park is
closed, depend upon it none will be the
better for it. 1t only means more people
on the streets, disorder in secluded places,
more police service, more trouble.
"Thc people will have some sort of
recreation on Sundays. Their natural
inclinati ons are to do no wrong, if
suitable places of resort are provided at
home | hold it will tend largely to deter
them from entering into temptations that
besct thcm in places of seclGsion in out
laying districts. This may not be good
reasoning, but venture to submit it,
Let the would DO reformcrs see to it that
nothing moro demoralizing than lakewood
park is permitted to go on unnoticed.

THE \. c. II. X. LEASE.

It is greatly to be hoped that the
Acknowledgement can see his way clear
toward taking the desired action 50
that the mooted question of the legal
ity Of the lease Of the North Carolina
r. r. can be judicially determined He
has heard both sides and will give the
matter careful consideration before
making decision. There are many
who believe the lease both Illegal and
unfair 10 the State. There are others
who believe it both legal and fair. In
this division Of sentiment. il Attorney
General Osborne lends his name 10 the
proceeding il viii hasten a judicial de-
cison, and settle one" for all the
question Of legality; and from every
standpoint the sooner this question is
finally settled the better il viii be for
all parties interested
The position of this paper on the
wisdom of the lease is well known. We
have seen no reason to change that
position. As 10 the legality, we have
expressed no opinion, hoping that this
question will at an early date be sub
mitted to the courts.
