CURRENT COMMENT.
MUNICIPAL SHADOWS AND
LIGHTS.
(LeNiston Journal. }

The most discouraging event in Maine
municipal politics for some time IS that
upwards OF ZOO Of P0ltianu's vots1s
should turn out to caucuses ana Turn
down suoL candidate as Mr.. baxter.
Mr.. Baxter was defeated, however, mere
iy by small margin of less than Per
cent OF the total vote cast. ". n.
Randall wins by l13 votes. Mayor bax-
ter was supported. generally by the bust
DOESN'T enjoy this result, though presum-
ably he was not anxious again 10 lie In
the seas OF trouble But the special
reason why outsiders should fail to ENJOY
the turning down of an official so aole
and efficient. 1t seems TO US, is the dis
closure which this event makes that Guy
rent city governments are not what boss
es make them but what the people order.
Bosses are not SO much a cause as AL
effect. And if people are subjected to
unsolentitic public expenditure and II
they pay LAVISH tribute uf taxation to
half-baAed ideas in municipal govern
ment, tbs toll that is taken. is not OF
nature. put of man. After bitter eXpe-
rience the caucus and elections will
eventually express more advanced SOCIAL
ideas and economies. But it is unfOrtu-
ing experience charges such high prices.
The experiment OF self-goverment, how
ever, IL ust not tie regarded to he fa1l-
ure because there is so mucn waste and
loss, so much spoilisnl and deficiency of
public spirit. You can fool ell of the
people some of the time, and some of the
people all of the time, but you cannot
fool all the people all of the time" On
this rock the development OF municipal
and otEer American government rests.
We are gaining, on the whole, as New
York and many other cities show, but
there is yet lot of room at the top.
We congratulate Mayor Baxter on the
record he has made; we see no reason to
congratulate the gentleman most active
in turning him Gown for having turned
that record down. But it almost always
happens that man who has progressive
views, runs against many snags Of con-
servatisru. The progressive man, however,
is apt to live as far in the present and
future as the conservative man III the
past, and especially is this true in this
country of rapid social manifestations.
We shall, accordingly, expect to meet
Mr.. Baxter again.
The recaIcitrant Portland politician
evidently wants something else in may
or besides self devotion, zeal, philnn.
thropy, progress and reform. 1t is to be
hoped that Portland knows exactly what
she does want.
The Portland daily press., 1897-02-17

Though defeated for the nomination.
Mayor Baxter has every reason to feel
gratifed at the showing he made in the
caucuses. His candidacy Was not an
nounoed until a short time before the
caucuses, after many men who would
naturally have supported him had been
committed to another candidate, there
WAS little time for organization, the
"workers" so-called, were generally ar
rgyed against him, and be bad 10 meet
the opposition. which every mayor has to
meet who does his duty, of men who
had wanted something which they
did not get, or who got less than they
thought was their desert. Nevertheless,
in spite Of these serious draw backs. he
carried the three most reliable Republi-
can wards in the city, and in the others
was beaten only by narrow margin.
His support came largely from business
men, was purely voluntary and was
iotated oy what they believed to be for
g best interests of the city. There was
element of self-seekiug in it.

WAR OF BLUE BLOOD.
New York Society of the War of 1872
Wants Rival Dissolved.

| Attorney Gen. Hancock will have q
novel question to decide. The question
| is novel for three reasons. One is that
the states legal officer has never been
called upon to solve a similar puzzle; an
other is because upon the attorney gen
erals decision will hang the corp crate
existence Of society which dates its an
| csstry back. TO the days of 1912, and the
third reason is that the action is brought
by another society which has headquar-
tiers in New York city and which claims
that society having headquarters in
| this city has stolen its name.
When the Sons OF the Revolution, the
Daughters of the Revolution, the Colon
NAL Danes. the Daughters of the Colon
NAL Danes, The Sons Of the Daughters
| of Colonial Danes, and the societies OF
u dozen different wars, each OF which
claimed that its membe had ancestors
who had come over in the Mayfiower,
had organized, the people of the state
| thought that about all the titles under
| the sun had been used up.
| Then it was that the societyfof the War
of 1919, with Major Asa Bird Gardiner OF
New York at its head, came into exis-
tence, and filed it's Incorporation papers
with the secretary of state here.
| The society, It'll said, was progressing
swimmingly. Members through whose
veins blue blood was. coursing we're join.
| ing at every meeting. Family trees, al
| most unprecedented in height, were being
donated, through its members, to the
society every month.
| This activity continued up to month
or SO age Then the New York svoiety
was thrown into CONSERVATION by re.
port that another society, with just az
| good blood ard just as many big family
trees had organized in Albany. and thai
| it EN- braced among its members persons
who thought that their ancestors had
done the lighting during the war of 1912
| Insult was added to injury when 6
rumor reached New York that the an.
cestors of the Albany society though,
| that the ancestors of the New York So
Getty had done more looking on thar
| fighting about the days Of 1879.
| This insult was not to be borne. The
fighting blood of the ancestors of the
New York society was, aroused. AS blood
could not legally be made to flow, and as
| the mem bers of both societies valued
their particular blood because it was
scarce. enough of it having been spilled
| for the country in 1912, the only thing
| for the insulted society to do was to re-
sort to the law. They chose as their par
| ticulsr knight to do battle one of theil
legal lights, Asa Bird Gardiner.
| Mr. '3ardiner opened the fight by fling
at the attorney generals office here an
| application for the dissolution of the AL
bany society andsrequested sthe attorney
general to allow q hearing.-New YorL

1t is reported, that there is opposition
to the homestead settlement bill that
passed the Senate and is now in the com
mittee on public lands of the house from
people who are interested in education,
on the ground that the ENACTMENT
would endanger payments under the Nor
rill law. It is alleged that agricultural
colleges throughout the country have
adjusted their work. to the limit of assis-
lance received under that law, and to
withdraw it nowEwould seriously cripple
