MAINE HOTEL PR0pRleT0Rs
Association Will Hold Meeting in This City,
Next Friday.

The 18th annual convention of the
Maine Hotel Proprietors' Association
will be held in this city, next Friday,
commencing at 2 O'Clock in the after
ifoon. The meetings will be held at the
Augusta House, and a very pleasant
time, such as hotel proprietors, the
hosts of hosts. know how to enjoy.
The following is taken from the cir
cular letter sent by the secretary and
treasurer of the association, Mr.. Will
II. Mcdonald:
AS our association advances in years
we note the many benefits the hotels
and hotel men throughout the State
have derived from it's resolutions, its
rules. and the laws it has established.
We meet yearly and devise new
methods and new principles whereby
we may better serve the public and by
so doing make ourselves more capable
of improving our hotels and bringing
the business to higher standard from
year to year.
Growth and improvement are one of
our highest aims, and the larger and
more enthusiastic our meetings are the
more we can attain to these high
ideals. At our last annual meeting the
resolutions passed in our convention in
regard to our employment bureau are
one of the most beneficial things we
have ever done.
Let every member come this year
with some new idea and some new
method that he can introduce whereby
we can all be benefited. The very
place of the meeting in Augusta at this
time during the Legislature should
alone insure larger convention than
we have ever had before.
An invitation is extended to all hotel
men in the State, whether members or
not

Secretary McKeen of the board of
agriculture received an interesting let
ter. yesterday, from Seward Dill of
Sequel, Cal. Mr.. Dill was formerly a
citizen of Phillips, Me-, and was one
of the founders and early leaders of the
State agricultural society, and is still
a frequent contributor to the bulletins
of the board. The letter was written
on Mr.. Dill's seth birthday. and full of
gossip about Californian agricultural
conditions. This is the sowing season
for the farmers there. but the rains
have delayed them somewhat. With
his letter Mr.. Dill sent two packages of
seed, both new to Mr.. McKeen. One
is sample of Californian wild clover.
and the other a sample of wild peas
which grow in abundance there. The
PEAS grow over six feet high and quick
ly grow again if moved down. They
are covered with pods from bottom to
top which are much used for fall feed
for cows.

Some of the most important and in
teresting committee hearings of the
winter are on the programme for this
afternoon. The Engel railroad bill will
be considered by the railroad commit
tee, the hearing having been postponed
from last Wednesday,. Much interest
centers around this. At the same hour,
P. NJ. the fish and game hearing
takes place in Representatives hall,
and will probably draw the largest
crowd yet. There will be some able
speakers present. The matter of reg
istering guides and requiring them to
make certain returns, also the appro-
priation for the protection of fish and
game will be considered. The friends
of Bangor Children's Home and the ST.
Elizabeth Orphan Asylum will present
their request for STATE aid before the
finance committee. The committees on
judiciary, legal affairs, claims, ways
and bridges. salaries and insurance
also have important hearings, this
