two years ago as a republican. The

ANOTHER OF TONNES
wHOPPERS.

SAUK CENTRE, MIMI, Oct. Ito the
Editor: Tonight at the Grand Opera House
Charles A. Towne, discussed the political issues
from free silver standpoint The audience
was composed mostly of gold men, who gave
him respectful attention. During his speech
he made the following statement: "Within the
last forty. eight hours know that there has
been placed in the hands of two men in the
Sixth district the sum of $1,000 for the pur-
pose of defeating me-" He wanted this re-
ported to the Pioneer Press so it might com
ment upon it. A. L. KINNAMoN.
Why didn't Mr.. Towne make it a
million dollars while he was about it!
The one statement would be just about
as preposterous as the other. We have
been told that $50. 600 has been Ilaced
to Mr.. Towne's credit as a campaign
fund in certain banks. We don't believe
the story. Although it is far more pro
babe and rests en- far better grounds
than his statement that he knows that
100000 has been placed in the hands
OF two men IN the Sixth district for the
purpose CT defeating him. OF course he
doesn ''know" anything of the kind
If he had any such knowledge he would
have the proofs in his possession on
which it was based. And he would
have named the men in whose hands
this money had been placed and stated
knowledge. When lie saws specifically
that he knows" it without being able
to state single fact in support of the
assertion, it is plain that he invented
the story purely for campaign effect,
just as he invented the story that some
OF the laboring men in his district had
been coerced by their employers into
taking ground against silver, 1t was a
good story to tell for electioneering pur-
poses especially when the campaign is
getting desperate: but when people in
desperate need of votes manufacture
such yarns for the purpose of exciting
sympathy. they should at least be pre-
pared with some facts to substantiate |!
them. Mr.. Towne, we are sorry to say,
has told so many whoppers during this
that he can hardly expect |
people to take snch improbable stories
upon the unsupported assertion. We
very much doubt it the opponents of
Mr.. Towne have a quarter OF the money
at their disposal for campaign purposes
that the silver combine has contributed
to Mr.. Towne's campaign expenses

HE CREASED THE TRACK.
The EIectrics Made Short Work of Poor
Piggy.

Yesterday morning as one of the cleo
trio cars of the Cape Elizabeth railroad
was on the way from sELigonia to Port
land great fat pig, Weighing over two
hundred pounds, ran out from the
grounds of a residence adjoining the track
and with defiant grunt and closely braid
ed tail, planted itself suddenly on the
centre of the tracks, and braced itself for
an encounter with the strange machine.
The motorman, who had seen the track
clear for quite distance, and was letting
the car go at "A lively rate, put on the
brake to stop the momentum. But that
car chad pace on'' and it struck piggy
fair and square. Such blood Cur fling
yell has not been heard in that vicinity
for some time, and the sound, together
with the conclusion, raised the hair of
about all the passengers who thought
they had encountered stock yard. Pig.
" was 'just fat enough to kill'' and he
laTded the rails for about an eighth of a
mile before the car was stopped and piggy
removed. No damage was done, except
to the pig who will be missed by it's
brothers and sisters for some time to
come. The pig belonged to the superin-
tendent Of the oil works and there will be
a good opportunity for some one to secure
good fresh pork.
