Ihe locomotive drawing train Il which
left Bangor Saturday morning for St.
John, blew out cylinder head at Old
Town and the train was held there until
another engine was Ssent from Bangor
to proceed with the train.
The developments appear TO be justify
ing Manager Grams early claim of the
Importance of the Ashland branch line,
and the need of its construction. Mr..
Cram held from the first that in proper
ton to outlay involved, the Ashland re-
gion WAS more inviting field for rail
road than the Eastern portion of the
county, and his statement seems likely
to be verified. The present bright pros
poets of the Ashland branch must also be
gratifying to all who advocated that the
county lend its aid TO the enterprise. 1t
is proper to be just and fair, even at
some sacrifice, but it is especially pleasant
when the Investment pays in dollars and
cents. The Industries now
i'll sight which are developing along the
line of the B. & A. railroad in AIoos-
took this season, will give employment
to between 500 and 1. 600 men, and work
up material resources which have hereto
fore either been carried out of the coun-
ty, to add to the wealth and prosperity
of ether communities, or which have Jain
dormant and unutilized at home. The
new railroad is constantly furnishing new
evidence OF its immense value to ARGOS
took as an agency of progress and devel-
opment, and there are also pleasant signs
on all hands that the people are beginn-
ing to realize these facts. -Presque Isle

LEGISLATIVE DIsCOURTRsI

Tho Legislature passed a leo bill
few days ago, and the Governor 70.
turned II with his veto, based on OBJ
Jec,ions which virtually stated that
the bill gave evidence OF haste In prep
sration from tho fact that II was %
imperfect ~ not TO cover the situation
Intended. Upon receipt OF this mes
sage the House Judiciary committee
made 4 report that the bill DO pass oil
over the Governors veto, and
this vas done by vote Of twenty
four to nine, notwithsls nding the
pleadinga Of some OF tho members that
they be given one days further time TO
examine the measure more critically.
In view Of the circumstances under
which this action was taken, II can bo
given no designation milder than that
the proceeding was manifeslly dis
courteous to the Governor a. the rep.
resentative OF the people OF tho entire
State; and this lack OF courtesy is az.
gravated by the fact, II the statement
made during the debate Ia correct, that
the vetoed bill had not been printed

II would have been only just TO have
given \ little further time, as asked,
that the provisions OF the bill might
have bsen more carefully scanned.
But the disposition to be even moro
than discourteous, anu TO DO reckless,
Ia dlspl lyed In the report OF the ludloi.
ary committee ON which the veto was
ovefruled. There arc several points Of
this character which might be named,
but We will refer to one only, Reply.

mittee says: "lt there be any doubt
