hold him to account. There was
no time for dickering. Quick ac-
ton was the event of the hour.
1t was a question OF who could
pour oil on the troubled waters ::
aud in all the State, Samuel d.
MeEnery was the only man upon
whom the contestants would unite.
While Governor Foster may be
candidate for the United States
Scnate-in fact we dare say he is,
and intended to be at that time
but at that time we believe he act
ed from purely patriotic motives;
with an eye single to the best in
terest of the Democratic party.
And then again; to take Sena-
tor McEnery's side of the question.
To accept Clarion's view, is to ar
raign his intelligence: at least his
political acumen. For the Sena-
tor certainly must KAYE known that
he was in a position to reject any
and all attempts to entangle him
into a dicker. His party asked
him to step in, heal the breach,
and preserve her autonomy.
And brother, while we know
there is little that is noble in the
battle Of politics; little that is en-
nobling in it's school: yet when
we see an act of patriotism, let us
give due credit, and thank God |
that the sentiment is not entirely |
dead.

HE Is WELL QUALIFIED TO SERVE.
Mr.. E. P. Jones, weather observer at
the Portland station, has applied to the
chief OF the weather bureau for active
service as signal officer. 1t is under
stood that those members of the weather
observation service who have had prac-
tlcal instruction as signal men in the
army will be taken into active service to
serve with the militia aud naval reserves
as signal officers along the coast. Mr.
Jones served for nearly year at Fort
Myers, Virginia, in the signal corps Of
the army. While at that post he received
instruction in practical signalling and is
we'll qualified to serve in that capacity
now. He is anxious to do what he can at
this time to improve the signal service
along the Maine coast and was among the
nrst signal men who are now in the gov
eminent meteorological service to apply
Tor duty. So far Mr.. Jones has not re-
celVed any answer to his application.
he is most efficient observer and stands
way up on the list of those in the meteor
olgical bureau.

| THE NEW HARBOR REGULA TIONS
AND THE STEA MERS.

The order of Major Hoxie, United
States Engineers, closing the harbor, via
the main channel, to vessels between the
house of p. M. and a. n. aroused a
question as to whether the order would
cause change in sailing and arrival
time Of the steamers to and from this
port.
1t is probable that the Frank Jones.
that sails to eastern ports, will remain at
Portland over night and sails to eastern
ports, will remain at Portland over night
and sail for the eastward on her regular
trips at 5 a. m. wished of II r. m, and
remain at Rockland after her arrival
there until twelve midnight, when she
will leave for Portland instead of her
present sailing hour.
There will probably be no change in the
hours of the Maine Steamship company
or the Portland Steam Packet company.
Their boats sail before eight p. M, and
arrive before that hour, or in the case of
the latter company, about a. m.
The Falmouth Foreside and Freeport
Steamboat company's steamer, the Made
leine and Phantom can no longer, make
landings at Freeport, Bustins island,
Mere Point, Harspwell Center or Little
Johns. At Great Chebeague they are
obliged to abandon Hamiltons landing
and go to Sunset pier on the other end of
the island.
The Harpswell Steamboat company has
to omit Little Chebeague and two Long
island landings
The Rockland boat Me1ryconeag and
the Boothbay boats Selacia and Enterprise
now have to come into the harbor through
ship channel instead of using the White
Head passage as heretofore.
The Percy ", which runs to Cundy's
Harbor does not lose any landings, but,
instead OF going through the inside pas
sage is obliged to go through ship channel
