The following is from the ques-
ton and answer column of the
Tacoma Ledger:
Can the United States acquire
territory by conquest? For ex-
ample, is there any law on our
statute books or anywhere else
that would allow the United
States to take forcibIe possession
of and hold for our own benefit
for all time the island of Cuba ?
Why did we not appropriate
Mexico, or rather why did we not
annex her at the time of our war
with her Pc. d.
There is nothing in the consti.
tuition or statute books on the
subject of conquest because
nothing is needed. The right of
conquest is inherent in every
sovereign country; it requires on
ly physical force, not legal back
ing. The United States did not
annex Mexico after they had con-
quered her, because they didn't
want to. They took Texas and
part of the northern territory of
Mexico, but left the conquered
country practically whole. There
is nothing in the way of law to
| prevent us from conquering Cuba,

Joseph L. Hobson, of Saco, Me, a
brother of Nathan Hobson, died at Saco
last Friday, aged 90 years. We take the
following from the Biddeford Daily Jour
nall
MIR. Hobson had been sick for about
three months, and for the past week his
death had been almost hourly expected.
The cause of his death was a general
breaking down of health. Since the death
of his wife and son about year ago he
had been greatly discouraged and APP
peared to have no desire to fight the
battle of life.
Mr.. Hobson was the son of William
and Annie Hobson, and was born in
Hollis, January IS, 1928. His education
was acquired in the common schools OF
his native town, and when a young man
he came to Saco and entered the employ
of Joseph Hobson, the lumber king of
York county. He began working in the
lumber yard. but proved so valuable and
learned the business so rapidly that he
was shortly afterwards made superin-
tendent of this large plant, and served as
such for nearly thirty-two years. After
retiring from the lumber business he en-
gagged in business in the little blue store
on Main street i'll Saco, where he remain
ed for four wears, selling out to Edward
ID. Thomas, some two years ago. Since
that time lie has done little or no work
owing to i'll health.
He was life long Republican, and has
always been an active worker in the
party. He never aspred for any office
but two years ago he was prevailed upon
to serve as councilman, and was reelected
last March. For two years he was over
seer of the poor.
| He was member of Saco lodge of Ma
sons, having joined the order some 80
years ago.
He was kind father, a loving husband
and a good citizen. He was honest and
upright i'll all his dealings and was highly
esteemed by all who had the pleasure Of
his acquaintance. While engaged in the
lumber business he became acquainted
with men from all parts OF the county
and by his straightforward dealings he
made friends with all who met him.
He leaves two daughters, Mrs Ella
/ Cole and Mrs. Willis Roberts. also three
brothers, Nathan Hobson of Island Pond
and Charles and Alvin of West Buxton.
The funeral occurred last Monday
morning under the auspices of the ma
sonic fraternity.

An amusing incident occurred here last
Saturday. A visitor stopping at the
Stewart House was reading an account
of the tearing down of the American flag
at st. John, N. B., and happening to
look up from his paper his eye rested on
the British flag flying from the Canadian
Custom House. This raised his ire, and
believing in retaliation out he started to
see if that flag couldn't come down.
Curiously enough the first man he met
was Mr.. Joseph Williams. the Canadian
customs officer, to whom he poured out
his Indignation, suggesting that that
- dirty rag ought to be torn
down. Mr.. Williams listened very pa
tiently and courteousy to the strangers
TRADE, and then replied that he (Mr.
Wiliams) had raised that flag, and why
it was there, and limited so emphatlcally
that it would not be wise on the
mans part to attempt to fear 1T down,
that the latter suddenly had business
elsewhere, grieved to think that as a
patriotic American he could not avenge
the indignity offered to our flag.

While it is we'll known that the Burgess
Sulphite Fibre CO. of Berlin, N. H. :, some
months since bought large tracts OF land
in this vicinity from 6. H. Fitzgerald and
others, it may perhaps not be so well
known of the immensely of their pulp
wood business. Soon after their purchase
they engaged Judge H. Fl. Lucas as their
agent. with headquarters at Island Pond.
Mr.. Lucas, who is a very capable man
for the company, is in the woods large
portion of the time looking over the
work, locating jobbers, running lines and
the like. H. W. Marsh of Norton has a
big contract. He has now in his employ
$50 men, located in different camps be-
tween Averill and Island Pond. His bro
ther, r. E. Marsh, has charge of his bust
ness in this town and the adjoining town
of Morgan, and the pulp wood will be
loaded on the cars at Norton, Lake and
Island Pond. T. Spaulding & Co. have

His presence here this week means bust

size and output of canned stock, which
will be a good thing for the town, and
it would not be surprising to us to see
the factory again enlarged two years
hence. The business of the firm of Log
