THE INDEPENDENT NATIVE

The down east native caters to the summer colony not only as the land lord of the rented cottages and the keeper of the hotels and boarding houses, but as livery stableman. gro- cer, butcher marketman, apothecary. and doctor; there is not one foreign accent in any of these callings. He is, perhaps, more complex than he seems: he is certainly much more self-suffic- ing than might have been expected. The summer folks are the material from which his prosperity is wrought, but he is not dependent, and very far from submissive. As in all right con- ditions, it is here the employer who asks for work, not the employee, and the work must be respectivefully ask ed for. There are many stories to this effect, as for instance that of the lady who said to summer visitor critical of the weeks wash she had brought home. "I'll wash you and I'll iron you, but I won't take none of your jaw The native compliance with any sum- mer1visiting request is common in some such form as Well, don't know but what I can," or T guess there ain't anything to hinder me"
 This compliance is so rarely, if ever, carried to the point of domestic ser vice that it may fairly be said that all the domestic service, at least of the cottagers, is imported. The natives will wait at the hotel tables; they will come in ito accommodate" but they will not live out" l was one day witness of the extreme failure of a friend whose city cook had suddenly abandoned him, and who applied to a friendly farmers wife in the vain hope that she might help him to some one who would help his family out in their strait. Why, there ain't girl in the Hollow

EAGER TO EXPLAIN,

Washington, January 29-The Republi-
can senators who voted in opposition to
their party on the Teller resolution will
probably seek an opportunity next week
to explain their position at length, and
in doing SO they will seek to have the
further consideration OF the Hawaiian
treaty postponed. Very few of them
made speeches while the resolution was
before the Senate, but some of them
now feel that there was an effort to put
them in false positions and they owe it
to themselves to have their position
thoroughly understood. While these sena-
tora are all favorable to the treaty some
of them speak quite indifferently as to
it's present fate. and it Is even intimated
that they would like to hold it up tenn
norarily in order to emphasize their an
taaonism to Secretary Cages financial
nosition at the expense of the treaty. One
Of the leaders OF the coterie said today
UThere Is no intention even on the part of
the warmest friends of the treaty to
vote on it for a month, yet we see no rea-
son for pressing the debate upon it. Hence
the Republican bimatallists will an
taoonize any effort to proceed immedi-
eteiv with it's considerations. -
10 said that resolution would be in
+roduced and made the basis of the
financial discussion which they intend
to start.

FRYET LKs.
Thinks Gage Better Banker Than Poll
tlcian.

Boston, January 29.-In the course of
a talk with Globe reporter today, Sena-
tor Frye of Maine made plain that ne
thought Secretary Cages insistence as
to a single gold standard precipitated
the silver men to the fight which they
made yesterday. The Senator said:
ssIf the amendment of Senator Nelson
to the Teller resolution had not been
voted down, the effect of the adoption OF
the resolution would have been nothing.
"The amendment was that the govei n
ment should maintain the parity of gold
and silver. AS that Is already part OF
the Sherman bill, which has never been
repealed, the effect of 1t would have been
to nullify the Teller resolution.
'sOf course 1t was voted down by the
silver men, and as result they put the
Teller resolution through for all 1t was
worth.
"The effect of the resolution will be to
square the silver men for their fight in
1907. That is what 1t is for. They were
doubtless spurred on to their present
activity by the attitude Of Gage in urg-
ing the acceptance of the single gold
standard.
eff Mr. Gage had been politician as
we'll as banker, he probably would
not have insisted on a declaration in IA
vor Of single gold standard. 1t was
all right for him to submit hia oheme
specific about the single gold standard.

at the recent dinner at New York, voiced

A severe storm which struck the camp

manned by Siawashes, from an adjacent
island. Upon her return he convened the

Elder were close behind the Danube and
would relieve them, the Danube proceed

ment.

Haverhill, Mass. January 29.-Orlin
W. Bradford, station agent for the Bos-
ton & Maine railroad at Georgetown, was
placed under arrest this forenoon by
Deputy Sheriff David N. Briggs, and
Detective John A. Mahoney. There are a
number Of charges against Bradford. one
alleging forgery, another embezzlement
and third charges him with breaking
into safe and stealing $3.50.
Bradford has been @ resident of George
town for the past ten years and has been
employed by the railroad for nearly all
that time. He has taken a prominent part
in the affairs of the town, having been
constable for several years. The evidence
on which the arrest was made is being
guarded very carefully by the officials,
but it has been learned that the affairs of
the office have been under inspection
for several weeks. In fact, q special officer
of the Boston & Maine railroad has been
at work since last November accumulat-
ing evidence in connection with the rob-
berry of the safe at Georgetown station,
which occurred November Goth. At that
time the station was entered, the safe ap-
parently blown open and rebate, checks,
tickets, and sl30 in cash was taken.
Inc ueteCtlVe Oh bak1HS up the CASE
found that while the safe had been drilled
to all appearances, the lock forced care
full examination showed that this was not
the case, but that while the lock had been
tempered with, it had not been broken
open. Other evidence was discovered,
which, when submitted to the officials of
the road, led to today's arrest. Bradford
was arraigned in tie police court this
afternoon, before Judge Abbott, and held
in 81 200 until Tuesday. He pleaded
guilty to a charge of breaking and enter
Ing, and the same plea was entered to the
charge of forgery. On the latter charge
DIT is understood that there is as many as
twenty counts against Bradford.
