Ever since the commission began to ex-
anime the minor officers who were much
more familiar with the condition of the
camp than the commanders could have
been, 1t has been getting unfavorable
reports, yet it shows no disposition to
stop the Investigation in that quarter, a
fact that goes to prove that the insinua-
tions that the commission was white
washing body were ISLANDERS.

The voters in Saco did great deal of
splitting of tickets in the recent election.
and yet. says the Biddeford Record, only
one in forty of the ballots was found de-
fectiye, and the errors were made not by
voters who could be regarded as ignorant,
but by Intelligent kues, who blundersd
simply because they assumed to 'tknow it
aIl,'' and therefore did not take the
trouble to post themselves as to the prop
er way of marking the ballot. If the tg-
norant can handle the ballot it shows that
it is notthe system that disfranchises,
but the voters own carelessness or neg
lect to inform themselves. Against
these things voters ought not to be pro-
tected, further than their own intelli-
gence can protect them.

If the Philippines were valuable to
Spain why can't they be made valuable
to US, is sometimes asked. The answer is
that they were not valuable to Spain
peeuniarily. They constantly ran the
country in debt. We could in time
doubtless manage them better than Spain,
but that we could make them return any
thing above the cost of holding and gov
erning them is highly improbable.

probable, but it is not impossible. The

But even if she is ashore at Cat Island it
by no means follows that she can be

\ NARROW ESCAPE.

The inhabitants of North Main street
were tryated last night to a very eNcit-
iag incident which nearly terminated in
the serious injury Of Edward Barr.
Tie was lcisnrely riding down the
street behind team driven by a Mr..
Young when one Of the bystanders call
ed to Barr something about racing with
'lae tenn, whereupon he gritted his
teeth, got down to work and it appcarcd
10 be an exciting race as Mr.. Young
was driving pretty fast horse.
Several people along the street were
watching with interest the progress of
affairs when they were brought to n
sudden climax and everyone held their
breath expecting to find that Barr had
met with sudden death.
Mr.. Young not realizing that Barr
was so close to him turned into the yard
at o. j. IIowes' place with] the result
that the cyclist came in contact with the
horse and was thrown about ten fcoi
over the handle-bars and struck his
back squaroly across the four-colnercd
electric wire pole. Had he struck his
head in like manner there is no doubt
that he would have been instantly killed
Mr.. Young felt very badly over the
accident for which he was in 10 way TO
blame aaA he offered to carry Mr.. Barr
home in his buggy, but the latter be-
You'd being very badly bruised was not
seriously injured.
