BELLlcosE MOOSE.
Tackling Locomotives and Things Tht
Move Too Fast in Maine

Tackling Locomotives and Things That
Move Too Fast in Maine
Though large moose are scarce IN
Maine, the few which survive seem to
be doing the best they can to wreck
the railroads and destroy all forms OF
property that are capable of motion.
Last August an engine on the Maine
Central railroad, in charge of Frank
Brown, was met by a moose just out
of Vanceboro, and after a brief but
valiant battle the oos succumbed,
though the train was delayed nearly
an hour before the remains OF the con-
fict could be removed from the track.
On October s the same engine, IN
charge of Engineer Gilbert, met
another moose near Forest City and
won again after a short conflict. A
Maine Central freight engine was de-
rallied by al angry moose near Lincoln
last September.
While the Maine Central has a good
record as 4moose slayer, the Bangor
& Aroostook probably has killed more
game offthis species than any other
road inlthis country. George Gar
MONS train, which runs on alternate
nights between Old Town and Carl
bou, has killed three moose and two
deer and cut off the headquarters of a
two-year old bear. George Michaud's
train on the same line has captured
two moose and one deer. Tom Hag-
gerty's train has killed one moose and
one bear, and Charles York's has two
moose and one caribou to it's credit.
There is hardly q train running to the
Maine backwoods that does not kill
more big game every year than the
law allows q man to take.
This year the bull moose seems to
have got the suicidal mania in its
worst form. Not only do they attack
engines, but most of them seem in
clined to commit assault and battery
upon any object that shows symptoms
of life. Jared Sharp of Linneus, Me-,
owns a windmill. It is on a low frame
and earns it's keep by saving wood,
churning butter, and thrashing grain.
Last week while MI. Sharp's hired
man was grinding an TX by wind
power an 800-pound moose came down
upon the windmill. breaking of
two fans, overturning the grind.
stone, and badly soaring the hired
man. After bringing all the machinery
to a standstill the moose trotted back
to the woods, trailing forty feet of six
inch betting from it's antlers.-New

MAKING THE SUNSHINE GROW.

Smother, what makes the sunshine grow2"
My darling said one day,
As DER the hills the heavenly glow
Came speeding Oh its way,
Breaking the slumbers Of the night,
Flooding the earth with golden light,
And clothing mountains, dome and spire
With the baptismal robe Of fire.
"From q kind Fathers hand, my love,
The precious gift is poured.
In the vast treasure-house above
The glorious light is stored.
It shines for us-it shines for all,
In lowly cot or princely hall
And many a sorrow doth begu1le
With the rare sweetness of its smile.
"If I could make the sunshine grow,
How happy 1 should be.
No cruel blasts, no wintry woe,
Our fair green earth should see.
All the long year should summers reign 4.
Make glad the fields Of ripening grain; -
All the long year should flowers blow,
II l could make the sunshine grow.
"God rules and guides the heavenly light
With wisdom more than ours;
But we can make dark places bright
And deserts bloom with flowers.
A cheerful heart, kind words and deeds,
True sympathy for others needs,
Pure thought that from pure fountains
flow.
These make the blessed sunshine grow"

Western Prosperity,

The United States Investor OF Bos-
ton, one Of the leading journals Of the
country devoted to investments, says;
Representatives of Chicago bond
houses are travelling through Eastern
Kansas and Oklahoma looking for
municipal bonds, and placing great
deal of money in them. This is in
somewhat marked contrast to the sit
uation in the East where there has
not been any eagerness to buy the
best local municipal securities since
the war scare became acute. Apart
from the confidence on the part Of the
bond dealers which our Kansas CORES
pondent's statement indicates, it is
interesting to learn that transmits.
souri, cities and towns are beginning
to feel SO rich that they think they
oan at last afford good many much
needed improvements. From all &C.
counts, the West has the bulge on the
East this year in the matter Of pros.
perity."

Amending the Constitution.

Three constitutional amendments
are pending in congress, all Of which
ought to receive the necessary two
thirds vote Of both houses, which is
essential before they can be submit
ted to the state legislatures. 1t will
then require three-fourths vote on
the part Of the state Legislatures to
adopt them before they become part
OF the constitution.
One Of these amendments, which
passed the senate on Tuesday, is in
tended TO change the presidential in
auguration day from March A to May
4, and provides that The present pres
idential term shall not expire until
May 4, 1901, at noon, 1t also pro-
vides for the extension of the term OF
the next congress to the same time,
Another amendment which is still
more desirable from the peoples
standpoint passed the house on Wed.
nesday. II provides for the election
Of senators by popular vote instead
Of by the state legislatures. This
amendment has long been demanded
by the people Of the various states,
but it hitherto has failed in obtaining
the requisite vote in the senate.
The third amendment concerns the
presidency, and is intended to pro-
vide for certain emergencies not GOV.
cred by the constitution as it stands,
but which might occur.
For instance, the electoral vote for
president and vice president is can
vassed at joint meeting of both
houses Of congress on the first Wed.
nesday Of February. Now II they
should both die before the 4th Of
March there would be no person to
take the presidency, and anarchy
might prevail. 1t is to meet this case
that the amendment is proposed.
All Of these amendments are OF the
highest Importance and ought to re.
ceive the consent OF both houses oil
congress and Of the state legislatures.

One Sound Democrat.

Barney Sheridan, the honestest and
ablest Democratic editor in Kansas,
in signed article in his paper, the
Paola Spirit, makes the following as
sertions and predictions which we
commend to our Democratic or for
merly Democratic, readers here in
Dickinson county:
Populism is heresy, a fad. 1t is
wrong and the Democratic party can
not afford to encourage it or support
it, directly or indirectly. Fusion
means half Of 1t or part Of It or all Of
it. At the Democratic State conven-
ton Of 1890 at Wichita ] fought it and
again in Topeka in 1892 fought it.
Two years later was against it and
with the help of ADLER men straight
Democratic ticket was nominated with
Overmyer at the head. The Miami
delegation opposed it at Hutchinson
in 1896. went contrary to my con.
victions in 1892 and put up the Lew
cling ticket in the Spirit because |
hated and dreaded to assume an atti-
tude Of defiance to party will, though
| didn't put up the Leedy ticket in
1896. Even now it is with feelings of
regret that boldly and positively
say that the Democratic Western
Spirit will not support any fusion
ticket that Democratic conventions
may put up. But the welfare of the
Democratic party demands that as an
editor must take this position. The
future will justify my course. The
fusion State ticket will be beaten next
fall not less than fifteen thousand,
perhaps twenty-five thousand. In
deed, l shall not be surprised il it
goes under by forty thousand. This
will end it and next year the Demo-
Gratis can begin to get in shape for
1900. B. }. SHERIDAN.
