voters at large to come to the relief of
the already over-burdened taxpayers
and vote for the constitutional amend
ment.
The GAZETTE is of the opinion that
whatever agitation is done on behalf
of the amendment will have to be
done by the country press. 1t fears
that the daily press of the city will
not lend a willing hand for this effort
on behalf of the people. 1t is there
fore necessary for every country paper
in the State to at once commence agi-
tating the question and asking their
readers to not only vote for the anne i'd
ment, but also to see that all of their
neighbors and friends vote for it. The
work must commence at once. Let it
be thoroughly done. Let the people
override the already organized corpor-
ate power.

The rumor is again going around
that the United States is trying to pur
chase the island of St. Thomas, one of
a group of three islands in the West
Indies belonging to Denmark. The
island only has about 36 square miles
of territory but it's importance as a
naval station cannot be overestimated.
The sooner the United States obtains
possession of the island the better will
it be for the Union in times of war
with Eastern powers.

THE DEVILS MASK.

AS could reasonably be expected
the Pioneer Press and J. L. MacDon-
aid are the mediums through which
the railroad corporations hope to de-
feat the amendment to the constitu-
ton providing for a taxation of rail
road lands. There are no mediums
more ready to serve the interests of
the corporations than these two-one
man repudiated by his COMPRESSION
al district, and the other corporation
paper, controlled by men like James
J. Hill ct al, who own a large quanti-
ty of the railroad land which the pro-
posed amendment to the constitution
proposes to tax. They are fit parties to
commence the agitation against the
amendment on account of their facul-
ties to defend the corporations.
But it happens that the people of this
commonwealth are so we'll aware of
the subserviency of the two, of the
corporate control of the one and the
cringing obsequiousness of the other,
that new introduction to them under
their new masks will be quite suffici-
ent to instruct the people to cast their
votes against anything they propose.
The Pioneer Press apologies for Mac
Donald by claiming that he is an anti
corporation attorney. Ask the people
in St. Paul who know Macdonald best
what they think of him and they will
laugh at this apology of the corpora
ton sheet. Ask the people of the
Third Congressional district what
Macdonald is and they will tell you
that as an attorney, he is always ready
to receive his fee from a corporation
aud like all attorneys works for his
client
The principal cry of these people
writing and talking on behalf of the
corporations and against the people is
that the taxation of the lands would
result in repeal of the gross earn
ings tax, which is similar to the per
sonal property tax now being paid by
the people. This same cry was raised
in the senate of this State where the
railroad corporations concentrated
their efforts two years ago in attempt
ing to defeat the bill, after it hao
passed the house, through which body
the corporations allowed it to pass on
account Of the expense of fighting tho
bill in body with large member
ship. They used this repeal cry fol
all that there was in it, and the senat
ors who bowed to the corporations
hid behind this screen when attacked
by their constituents. Attorney Gen
eral Childs and other eminent at
torneYs, far more eminent than thu
attorney backed up by The
Pioneer Press, held that there was NJ
foundation for this cry-that the gross
earnings tax and the land tax woulc
both be constitutional. The very FACT
that the railroad corporations were
fighting the land tax was conclusive
evidence conclusive evidence-that
both taxes are as constitutional as thu
personal and real estate tax imposed
upon the people at the present time

Populists, in the eloquent language of
one of its leaders, called upon the
porations claimed that the vote of
Senator Day, as President pro tenn of
the Senate, cast in order that the bill
favoring the tax might be passed, was
unconstitutional, and that they would
fight the same. But strange, nothing
has been heard of their threat to fight
it up to the present time. All these
threats, not carried out, should prove
to every voter that the gross earnings
tax and the land tax are constitution
al, and that corporations should pay
two taxes as we'll as farmers and other
individuals.
There are thousands and thousands
of acres of railroad land in this State
not taxed at the present time. They
will continue in the hands of these
corporations until tax is imposed,
or until property owners around these
lands build up the values of them to
such high rate that the land COM
panies will finally SELL Then they
will sell under contract and it will be
more years before a tax is imposed.
The farmers will create the value and
the corporation will reap the benefit.
In the name of justice The GAZETTE
appeals to the voters of Minnesota to
compel these corporations to pay
their just share of the taxes.
The proposition to tax railroad lands
was originally Republican PROPOSE
ton The Republican party of Min
nesota, 10 conventions assembled. has
for the past four or six years, declared
in favor of the taxation of these corpo-
rate lands. Six years ago an attempt
was made to pass the bill but as usual,
the corporations concentrated their
power and wealth in the senate, and
defeated the bill, after it had passed
the more representative body-the
house without opposition. 1t was
tried again four years ago and defeat
ed by the same power in the same
place. Two years ago the Republi-
can party declared emphatically for
the proposition again and Rep
resentative Anderson of Chisago, in
troduced the bill into the legislature OF
1895 as party measure. 1t passed
the house practically without oppo-
siton. 1t went to the senate. Here
the corporate octopus again awaited
it's appearance with the gangrene Of
corporate influence. 1t became no
longer party measure, but measure
of the people, and the bill, after one
of the worst fights ever seen in the
senate, finally became law with just
one majority. Here it is proper tc

A Reception at Isle au Haut.

A very pretty reception was given by Mr..
and Mrs. J. E. Barter last Saturday evening
in honor of their son Arthur and lady friend
Miss Jones of Boston. The house was bril-
iantly lighted and tastefully decorated with
wild flowers. During the evening many
novel games were INDUCED i'll, mach to the
enjoyment of the company present The
next part of the programme was also pleas
ant one when the party was invited into the
dining room, where first of all California
"Cold Lunch was served and after regain
ing their self composure all partool heartily
of the many delicacies set before them.
The table looked very attractive decked
in nasturtiums ferns and fine flowers feast
for the eyes as we'll as the inner man. The
young people then adjourned to the drawing
room and We're very pleasantly entertained
by listening to a few vocal selections render
ed by Mrs. Geo. F. Kengott of Lowell, after
which college songs held full sway.
Among the guests present We're Mrs. G. F.
Kengott, Miss Loura Symonds, Miss Hattie
Turner, Rev. W. L. BARLEY and Mr.. W. Z.

and were only too sorry when the time

The Democratic State convention will
reconyene at Waterville to-day and nomi-
nate a candidate for Governor in place of
Mr.. Winslow, resigned. This decision was
arrived at at meeting of the State COM

but six of the sixteen members were pres
ent, the others being represented by
proxy. Few prominent Democrats were
present and the gold Democrats We're con-

yer men wanted the convention held in
Bangor and the Cumberland committee
men voted for Portland, and the selection
of Waterville was compromise. The
impression is that the convention will
nominate silver candidate on the nation
al platform, which would seem to be the
only logical conclusion. Mayor Hanson
is making desperate effort to secure the
nomination; but there appears to be a
good deal of opposition to him, ami Hon.
NJ. P. Frank is thought to be the coming
candidate. The Rockland Daily Star says ::

notice was given as to the time and place
of the meeting. Had such notice been
given the hall would have been filled to
overflowing. Hon. I.lewellyn Powers,
the Republican candidate for Governor,
addressed Belfast audience for the first
time and made a most favorable impress

questions, contrasted the records of the
Republican and Democratic parties, and
made many telling points. He was listen

ceived frequent and hearty applause.
His glowing tribute to the men who saved
the Union was highly appreciated by the
many veterans present. Hon. S. L. Mil

change of name for Green S Landing. 1t
says that the pay roll on the granite quar-
ries alone has reached S75, 900 in single
year, to say nothing of the sardine fac
tories and fishing industries, and that any
place on the Maine coast where there is a
wharf or fish stand may be properly
called landing. The Rockland Opinion
treats of the matter somewhat sarcastical-
ly and suggests Gneiss as new name for
the village. A correspondent of the Ca
zette proposes the name of Rockledge as
easy to spell. write and pronounce, and as
applicable to the place and much of its
business. Whatever name is adopted it

Nervous

People often wonder why their nerves are
so weak; why they get tired so easily;
why they start at every slight but
sudden sound; why they do not sleep
naturally; why they have frequent
headaches, indigestion and
PaIpitation of the Heart.
The explanation is simple. 1t is found in
that impure blood which is contin
ually feeding the nerves upon refuse
instead of the elements of strength and
vigor. In such condition opiate and
nerve compounds simply deaden and
do not cure. Hoods Sarsaparilla feeds
the nerves pure, rich, red blood; gives
natural sleep, perfect digestion, self
control, vigorous health, and is the
true remedy for all nervous troubles.

One of the most remarkable devices
resorted to by wild things for their own
protection is that of shamming death.
A beetle Or spider will double in its
legs and lie as if dead. The reason for
this is obvious. It may then be passed
over, mistaken for bit of leaf or stick.
But it is more difficult to account for
this practice in birds.
A moor hen or land rail Will feign
death, lying in the hand perfectly limp
and to all appearances unconscious. 1t
has been suggested that the idea is that,
being already dead, the captor will not
trouble to kill them.
More probably it is merely a ruse in
the hope that by lying still they may
be forgotten and crawl off presently IN
observed. Another reason is suggested
by the fact that cats and the cat tribe
do not often touch their prey unless it
moves.-London Standard.

Has a Moon on His Neck.

The queerest birthmark which the au-
thorities tell anything about is on the
back of Joseph Rotherman's neck. 10
seph is a resident of Connellsville, Pa
and his odd mark is a moon. When the
moon is new the mark is hardly notice
able, but by the end of the first quarter
it is an angry looking crescent, daily
increasing i'll size. When the moon is at
the full Rotherman's birthmark has also
attained it's maximum size. 1t decreases
as the moon wanes and by the time of
old OF new moon is again scarcely no.
