to down the music Of the Republican
band and for ten minutes each organi-
zation blew its loudest.

down to the vicinity of the Bryan ban

for minute later out came new flag
bearing the names of Palmer and

Then the Repu blioans went to the Ala

sarcasm. humor and common sense
was delivered by Hon. Lee Fairchild of
California. The Democrats gathered
in Sagadahoo square, where free silver
speech was made by Hon. Thomas JET

sentative TO the legislature in opposition
to Editor John o. Patten of the Bath

this evening attempted to make the
people believe that he was allied with
the A.P.A. He said thatlhe was not
pledged to any organization, secret, pub
lie or political, and if elected he would
do his best for the interests of Bath.

That fact was pretty good indication
that someone was rigging a derrick for
Bangor, but 1t seemed hardly possible.
Fall River lays it's claim to the PEN
nant on the ground that the New Bed
ford game of Friday was forfeited to Fall
River, because the home team had no
balls on the ground and by claiming the
game played. in Fall River SaturdayEfore-
noon, which was scheduled in Paw

that a game cannot be transferred from
one city to another except by the con-
sent of all the clubs. OF course there are
no grounds for allowing either of these
claims and to do So would he such a
fragrant piece of dishonesty and crooked
ness that it is hardly possible the officials
who have the awarding of the cham
