Papers and Periodicals.

The Boston Herald's sem-centannial edi-
ton issued last Sunday was a big success,
But this is invariably true Of their regular
Sunday edition. If anything it is too much
OF a good thing, but in quality it ranks
above many OF its competitors.
1t is interesting to note that Senator
Stewart of Nevada, the silver mine mil
lionaire, who is so anxious for the welfare of
the laboring man, publishes the free silver
organ at Alexandria. just across the river
from Washington, because there is no labor
union there, and printers have to work for
one-half the union price.
Mr.. Henry A. Wing, who has been acting
for some time as the Boston Herald CORE
spondent from Lewiston and Auburn, has
been assigned to the Grand Trunk line. and
Central Maine as far east as Augusta for
that paper. Mr.. Wing is capable and ex-
perlenced newspaper man and his extensive
acquaintance in the section which he will
cover, Will enable him to give the Herald a
superior service.

10 the Farmers Of Waldo Co.:

The time is near at hand when the new
crop Of hay will be ready for market, and it
is essentially necessary that the same should
be pressed III such manner as to command
the highest market price. This can best be
accomplished by using Dedrick Column
bian Press, three Of which are now ready to
start in the vicinity of Belfast. Hay put up
by these presses is sought for and aclnowl
edged by all dealers to bring higher prices
than the same quality of hay put up by other
presses. From twelve to thirteen tons of
Dedrick pressed hay can be loaded in a
common box car at a saving IN freight of 50
per cent. to the shippers and 20 per cent.
more hay can be pressed in a given time
than with the old style presses
These presses are being introduced and
placed within the reach of the farmers at
considerable expense by the owners and we
ask the farmers of Belfast and vicinity to
cooperate with us in this matter and make
the standard Of Waldo county hay equal in
preparation to that of any section of the
country from which hay is shipped.
The Dedrick presses will be managed by
Freeman Ellis & Sons, South Brooks; Her
bert Hamlin South Brooks, and Charles
Barnes of Waldo. Communications to any
of the above parties will receive prompt at
tentiOn.

1t is said that the sultan declares that
not single Christian in Turkey shall be
permitted to live if any hostile warships
attempt, to force their way through the
Dardanelles. The ruler who is willing to
carry on war by wholesale massacre is a
monstrous anomaly in this 10Th century.
The very fact that the sultan is capable
of making such threat as this is an IN
answerable reason why he sh ould be de-
throned. Boston Globe.

In the wise providence of Almighty God
he has been called to a higher service in a
heavenly school, free from all the trials and
temptations of this earthly life, to be hence
forth under the blessed guidance of his
heavenly Father and to be admitted to that
divine wisdom and peace which no soul on
earth can know or understand
