To THE EDITOR OF The Journal: You
spoke in recent issue of c. b. Piper of
Belfast, who had voted 16 times for Presi-
dent. Mr.. Charles Sargent of Monroe, 96
years old, cast his twentieth Presidential
vote Nov Sd, for Mckinley. He has always
attended the State elections and has voted
every year since he could lawfully do so.
He has lived under the administration of
every President except Washington and is
interested and posted in the current events
of the day both at home and abroad The
past year, he prepared all the wood for fam
lily use and is now building and caring for
the daily fires. He gathered his apples,
made his garden, etc. He has always been
strictly temperate, never used tobacco in
any form, and it is hoped that he may round
out the century. He was born in 1900

SOUTHWEST HARBoR, Nov. g. 1896. The
land, who was capsized in a row boat while
going from Northeast Harbor to his home
on Sutton Island during the northeast gale
of Oct. 10Th, have never been recovered. A
reward of 500 dollars was offered by his
wife for the recovery of the body and dill
gent search has been made, but without sue
cess. Mr.. Gilley for some years had been
supplying the cottagers at Northeast Har-
Dor with vegetables and milk and this was
! to have been his last trip of the season.
Mrs. Catherine Stanley is spending few
weeks in Waltham, Mass, with her daugh-
tiers.
| After the election had been settled and
Mckinley and Hobart had been declared
elected, Mr. Daniel F. Norwood and Emery
Parker prepared can of powder connected
with long fuze and placed it in a field nea r

regularly occupied, except by some campers.
A hole was dug in the earth and the powder
| placed therein and covered with earth and
sods, and in the evening it was touched off,
causing very heavy report, which was
| heard and felt for miles around. 1t caused
considerable damage to window glass in

Scramble for New York City Bonds

The scramble of bankers and investors
Nov. 9Th fol New York city bonds affords
a striking ILLUSTRATION of the extent to
which confluence has been restored by the
defeat of Organism.
When the bonds We're offered before
election the bids were very few and so low
that none could be accepted. Now, in
less than week after the people have de-
claled that dollar is to remain dollar.
no less than sixteen millions of bonds are
otteled-and what happens?
The entire amount is bid for many times
over, and they can be awarded at prices
so high that the city will have to pay lit
tie more than three per cent on the Dor
rowed money. The bonds are payable in
gold, but notwithstanding this fact, and
despite the high credit of New York, they
could not be sold so long as there was any
fear that the American people would
countenance a policy of reputation.
By the force Of the present reaction on
every side we can judge of the danger that
we have escaped. New York Herald.

FISH AND GAME. The Portland Ad-
vertser says the mackerel catch has been
about two thirds of what it usually is
The fish received now come mostly from
Block Island. Although the catch of
1896 has fallen below that of 1895, the
quality has been better, prices higher and
the fishermen have in general made more
money, so that the season has been, on
the whole, fairly satisfactory. The her
ring fisheries have as whole been better.
The fish have sold BETTER specially for
the western markets. For the first time
the business has been largely in the hands
of shippers of small steamers. Small boat
fishermen have not done quite as well of
late, the weather having been unfavorable.
1t may surprise some to know that at
least 3, 900 people ON the Maine coast are
directly engaged in the local fisheries.
The men who are employed in the deep
sea fisheries are not included in the esti-
mate. There are entire Maine commune
ties wholly dependent on the lobster bust
ness; Monhegan, for example. There is
no other business on the island, and it is
one of the most thriving settlements in the
State. -. United States fish commission

POLITICAL POINTS. Reviewing and
Analysing the Presidential election in re-
gard to population, wealth and iltelli-
gence, the New York Post finds in the
solid block of eighteen Mckinley States
from Maine to Iowa, not including others
that have given him electoral votes, SO
per cent Of the population, more than "a
per cent. of the nation S wealth, and nine
tenths of its great commercial centres;
while it has but 6 per cent. of illiteracy
against 10 to 81 per cent. in the States
that went for Bryan. This shows that
Mckinley was elected by something more
than mere Plumbers He had the brains
and the material interests of the country
with him.. Crazy headed Kansas covers
herself again with ridicule and more deep
ly than ever, if possible. Untaught by
her experience of Populist rule upder
Governor Llewelling few years ago, she
PUSHES back into that mess like rescued
horse into the burning stable. Kansas
needed above all things the repair of her
damaged credit, but her plurality of 49,
600 for free silver, and her election of
State officers and legislature of the same
complexion, are the reverse of reassuring
to capital seeking investment. The final
figures for President in the city of New
York give Mckinley 1856, S4s and Bryan
1874, 932, a Republican majority of 20, 9lG,
the first time in history that the Republi-
cans have carried New y ork city,. Hon.
William S. Holman is re-elected from his
old Indiana district, and is one of the
lucky four out of the thirteen Democratic
candidates in the State. Mr.. Holman was
among those buried in the landslide of
1894. .. Mckinley carried Delaware by
nearly 1000 but the Democrats elect
Congressman and Governor by about the
same plurality and majority of the leg

gins Addicks factional fight and the run

It keeps Addcks out of the national Sen
ATE, which is not to be regretted, but if
the upshot is the election of a free silver
Senator it will be an evil quite as great.
..... Complete returns show Mckinley S
plurality in Pennsylvania to be 291, O03....
-Four years ago the Republican majority
in New Hampshire was about $500; this
