Mr.. Perkins Offer Of Free Stone
and Location for the Crusher.
Valuable Highway Improvements II the
Town Can Pay for Them.

Highway Commissioner OF district Mol
Henry e. Gorton, will today complete
the crushing OF stone at the crusher In
its presen. location near Silver Lake. 1T
10 probable that the machine Will be re-
moved from it's present site TO the prem
ises Of Frederick Z. Perkins off Central
Pike. Mr.. Perkins, who was elected COM
missioner of district No. 3, at the recent
Division OF the town into highway dis
tricts, has offered TO furnish a location
for the crusher free and supply free what
ever stone 30 town may see fit TO crush.
Stone ready for crushing, hauled to
the crusher, has cost the town an aver
age OF 90 cents per ton heretofore. The
capacity of the crusber Is 100 tons per day.
The offer OF Mr.. Perkins Is favorably
considered, provided the Council can
see their way clear TO provide funds 10
pay for the la Dor of operating the crusher.
Mr.. Perkins, President Phillips and the
council highway committee are 10 meet
In a fow days to consider the matter.
At this meeting another highway project
will be discussed, that Is of interest to
those who have occasion to use the Gen.
trail Pike or ars concerned about good
roads. The w. l.. Smith hill, as 1t Is
designated, ON the Centra, Pike, Is
known, by all who have ever had occss-
ion to traverse this tboroughfare, as one
of the hardest IN the State. When this
road was built the engineers evidently
gave no attention. to the elevation over
which the highway was laid out and 1t
ascends Neutokonkinut hill at q nigh
elevation. Just north of It's present
line, IL run in zigzag course, an
easy ascent could be made which by
filing at the bottom OF the rise from
point near Smiths avenue additional re-
lief could be given and q compari-
lively easy grade established. A
number of farmers and residents alcng
this road have signited their willingness
to contribute to this work either in cash
or with their teams. How the work can
be accomplished with the present con-
dition of finances will be a problem for
the Council TO solve.

our beloved state OF Maine. which We all
love so we'll But 1t is a greater pleasure
to return 70 our old city Of Bath to meet
my old associates and the friends with
whom have passed my life.
1T is not fitting, and you do not ex-
pect me at this time TO make long
speech. but there Is one thought which
has so filled my mind that / feel that
you will pardon my speaking of 1t here.
We have had a convention, and 1t Is or
that / would speak TO you. IT was a
great convention. yet IL did not seem TO
me 10 be partisan one; II seemed more
like the uprising Of the people, and they
seemed TO be controlled by one idea
on idea that filed me for years. They
know that this country is In deep dis
tress, that II has been In distress for
years, and that great multitudes be-
lleved II. / believe that the great trou-
BILE is with our monetary system. and
they believe as / believe, that there Is
bu one remedy. They entertain no
dishonest or dishonorable idea. but they
demand that we be carried back TO the
money OF our fathers. To that monetary
system under which this government
Gourished for so many years"

years. The Sewall mansion and sur
rounding grounds. which were thrown
open TO the public. were brilliantly dec
Grated. Mr. Sewall here made a short
speech. again expressing his apprecia-
ton OF the reception. Then the process
