Strout, J.-Bill in equity to determine
whether plaintiff or defendant was elect
ed a common councilman of Belfast.
The printed ballots contained the names
of Edgar NJ Cunningham and under 1t
the name of William W. Gates; blank,
as required by law, was left under the
last name. Certain ballots were cast,
with a sticker. SO called. ON which was
printed the name of this plaintiff /, this
sticker WAS placed over the name of the
ueIendant. Inc questlon Is wnetner sucn
ballot was legal, and entitled to be
counted for plaintiff. The statute law of
1891. chapter luz, section 10, provides
that 81 blank space shall be left after
the names of the candidates for each
different office in which the voter may
insert the name of any person, not
printed on the ballot, for whom he de.
sires to vote. "
1t is the opinion of the court tn at the
statute requires the name of the person
desired to be voted for, and not printed
ON the ballot. to be inserted in the blank
space left for Ethat purpose-and that a
sticker placed over one of the printed
names is not in compliance with statute
Rejecting such votes, the defendant was

The result of the election in Vermont
can but havezthe effect Of giving strong
impulse to the Indianapolis Democratic
movement. A good many Democrats
have been inclined to suppo rt Bryan be-
cause they thought he was going to be
elected; notwithstanding their sympa-
shies were with the opponents of The Chi
caRo platform. Now that the Vermont
verdict has shown that Bryan's election
is hardly possibility, the attraction of
the Bryan ticket for them Ewill be gone,
and their reason and judgment are like
ly to.assert themselves land carry them
into the camp Of the boilers.

Major Hanson of Belfast has been max
ing some curious talk at Pittsfleld if the
Kennebec Journal reports him correctly.
He said that his own party in Belfast
contained pretty large purchasable..vote
that vote buying was SO common there
that from $40 to $500 were paid for votes
and that.in his eleotions.for mayor recent
ay, he had advised the mem bers of his
own party and friends to receive the
bride whether 1t was SO, barrel of
-four or a pair of boots, and then cheat
the per son buying the vote by voting rs
they pleased. He told the Pittsfield vot.
ers to sell their votes If they had an op-
portunity, and advised them to accept
the bride as they then would not get any
more than belonged to them.
1t is not strange perhaps, when you
think of it, that man who thinks that
advice to go in for cheap money to clear
creditors Is likely to be popular witt the
people should also think that a sugges-
tion to them to sell their votes would be
popular too.

MAKING THE BEST OF 1T.
Bangor Commercial (Silver. }

The news from Vermont is seized upon
by the Republican papers as the signal
for Jubilation just as it has been for
10 these twenty years. AS matter OF
fact, the result of the election there is
just what everybody anticipated. Yer.
mont is still welded to her idols. 1t is q
queer state, the only one, we believe, to
which Geo. Washington was not acoepta-
bio as Presidential candidate Ever
since it was raided by the Fenians, it
has been taught that Republioanism " as
its only defense from a raid from the ter
rible southern rebels and SO the Green
MouDtaineers cling to the o. O. D. re-
CARELESS of issues, candidates or princi-
pies. Democrats are so scarce in the state
that they are an object of interest who,
found, which recalls remark of ex-Dis-
trict Attorney Stearns, of Massachusetts,
who, when invited to go to Vermont tt
address Democratic meeting, replied
that he was very busy at that time witt
his law practice but if the Democrats O.
Vermont would gather in his backyard
and the yard was an exceedingly small
one it would give him great pleasure t.

The Populistio leaders are now saying
that the result in Vermont does not sur
prise them, that they expected nothing
better, and thet no significance attaches
to Vermont's vote anyhow. This ia
doubtless the best consolation they can
offer, but to anyone who is. familiar with
Vermont elections and their relation to
the general result it will prove very poor
kind. The Green Mountain State is al
ways strongly Republican, just the ma
jority rises and falls and in years past it's

: NAVY COST.

Paymaster General Stewards annual
report to Secretary Herbert states that
the cost of the United States Navy to
the Government last year was SIS, 404,-
S62. This figure does not include any
increase in the navy or the perma-
nent improvements to yards and
docks. For arms and equipment for
the naval militia the money and ma
terial expended amounted to S27, 1856.
The report commends the present sys-
TEN of concentrating naval stores in
one general stock, and shows that the
expense from this department. has
been constantly decreasing from Sill
100000 to S7,0OO00O Barges for the
prompt delivery of naval stores are
recommended. Special stores for the
reserve feet, which will be estab-
lished, are contemplated.

Christmas is coming on
apace and the people with
elegant foresight are looking
around for suitable gifts for
the season. In our stock we
have hundreds of articles
which are of the ornamental
variety and suitable for Christ
mas gifts. This year we have
been careful to select a variety
of goods-s snowy and substan-
tial articles-for all classes of
society. We have no more for
the rich than the poor. We
cater to the tastes of all, and
the result has been very salts
factory to us in a business
way.
We have a number of
statuettes in Parian marble,
one of which would be an
acquisition to any home. The
list comprises: Lady Godiva,
Early Struggles, Robinette,
Europa, Comus, Ophelia, The
Sisters, Apollo as a Shepherd
Boy, Maidenhood, Venus de
Medici, The French Model,
Diana Abandoned. These are
of good size for the table or
center piece on a mantel.
Another neat gift is a cup
and saucer in Grown Derby.
These are entirely new here
and Of beautiful design and
quality. We have also some
rich and elegant articles in
Royal Worcester and Solid
Silver Ware. A glance at our
windows will give you an idea
of the excellence Of the assort-
ment.
A number of articles in
Bric-a-Brac and Glass Vases,
Crockery and Glassware are
selected for general use and
will make acceptable presents.

idea that she would resent suggestion
of amendment as to details is absurd.
Hawaii is able to present the very
strongest reasons and the most con-
vincing argument on behalf of certain
desired alterations in the present
agreements. Hawaii is an independ-
ent Government, the peer of other
states of The family of nations and
withal having somewhat of a record
in the business of diplomatic dealing.
That she should be backward in pre-
senting or opening any question is a
confessin of weakness that is not war
ranted. This country should not need
lessly anger Japan, but should that
country lose temper in the course of
any negotiations, there is one Govern
ment at least that would stand by to
see fair play. There are other Govern
ments known all about that would be
more than ready to advantage them
selves of any situation in which Japan
might have serious attention diverted
to the west.
There should exist and be manifest
the courage to seek new treaty
should such a step be deemed advis-
able from the Hawaiian standpoint.
There must be no fast and loose gal.
Looping, but there should be firmness
and confidence in these premises.

ONE ON A "YANK."

At gathering in New Haven DR..
Watson (Ian Maclaren) told story
about his trip to the Holy Land, to
which he had been looking forward
for number of years with pleasur-
able anticipation. AS he was nearing
the center of historic Palestine he
met an American who was making all
haste to get away. After few greet
ing such as two English speaking men
meeting in a foreign country might
exchange, the American asked DR..
Watson where he was going. "To
Jerusalem" was the reply. "Jerusa-
lem!" exclaimed the American in tones
of unfeigned disgust; 'you don't want
to go there. I've just come away. It's
n slow town. Why. theresisn't a daily
newspaper in the whole .place!"

ENGLAND'S ROADS.

When General Stone delivered an adj
dress recently, on good roads and their
relation to progress and civilization
before the Educators Convention held
at Buffalo, n. Y, the New York Trib-
une called attention to it as a circum-
stance significant that road science
should engage the attention and in
terest of such body of representative
people, where few years ago the sug-
gestion that any concourse desired to
be instructed upon the subject would
have been considered an absurdity.
This same address by Gen. Stone, it
seems, has attracted attention in Eng
land and the Tribune's London cores
pendent recently'used the fact to point
a moral in reference to the necessity
for constant watchfulness over roads
when once constructed, so as to keep
them in perfect order. Yet England
has perhaps the best roads in the
world. possibly even outdoing France.
Her roads excite the admiration of all
travellers, and their perfection is due
to the diligence given to repairs. A
defect or an injury to roadways is not
neglected an hour. Trained repairers.

Everything that constitutes
a high grade bicycle is found
in these wheels. The year
1896 has placed them ahead of
any wheel on the market at a
price that invites every pur-
chaser's attention. In make,
finish and easy running quail
ties they excel all others.
The merits of a wheel are
not all apparent by an ex-

something more than good
looks to make good wheel,
and especially is it not only
essential that the material used
in boys wheels be Of the best,
but by the combination of the
best matrrial with the best
ideas in construction, and able
workmanship in putting these
factors together, the produc-
ton is a wheel at once beauti-

as any wheel.
