Tire County Convention.


The republican county convention is
called 10 meet at Ellsworth next We'd
nesday. June %. This convention
will nominate candidates for two SEN
ators, clerk of courts, Judge of
probate, a sheriff, a county attorney,
a couEty commissioner, register of
deeds and county treasurer.
For many years Hancock county has
followed the commendable practice of
continuing in office men who have
shown themselves competent in the
positions to which they have been
chosen. There have been few excep-
tons to this policy, and whenever it
has been departed from it has not
proved advantageous either to the
business interest of the county or to
the welfare of the dominant party.
1t is to be hoped that this year har-
mony will characterize the coming
convention. So far as now appears
there will be no contest except on the
nomination of a candidate for sheriff,
referred to below.
For senators DR.. R. P. Grindle, of
Bluehill, will doubtless be nominated
from the western district, and from
the eastern district we have heard of
no candidate against Col. H. E. Ham.
lin, of Ellsworth.
John F. Knowlton will, of course, be
renominated for clerk of courts, O. P.

An eleven year old school girl at South
west Harbor has caught the prevailing
war spirit and produces the following
poem as school composition:
Twas in eighteen handred and ninety eight
They said that Cuba we must take,
So Sampson, he went down TO see
If he could set the Cubans free.
1t was in April when they had
A fight that made the Spaniards sad;
We tore down forts and broke their guns,
And for their lives they had TO run
Dewey sailed right into Manila bay,
And soon the forts they did give way;
And Dewey he felt very smart
Because he made the Spaniards start.
He sent his fire all over the town,
And some of the spaniards he did drown;
Some of their ships went off in fright,
While others stayed to finish the fight.
And now they're fighting at Porto Rique;
l hope they will their matches meet.
I've got no more time to spend,
SO will bring my verse to an end.

acres Of land below and near Winter Har-

crew OF men engaged in completing the
road up Schoodic mountain, which work
was begun last fall, and soon will begin

SATURDAYS PRIMARIES.

The Republican primaries to be held
Saturday will include the selection OF
delegates to the State, Judicial and
County conventions and also the cleo
tion of a Central Committeeman for
each precinct. In the selection OF
State and Judicial delegates a new
plan has been adopted and unless care
fully noted some confusion is likely to
result Under the official call the
county is divided into eleven districts,
each composed of two or more precincts
and each entitled to one delegate and
one alternate to the State convention
and one delegate and one alternate to
the Judicial convention. Each pre-
cinct will vote separately, but returns
must be made to the County Central
Committee to determine from the to-
tails what delegates are elected.

DAISY LETTERS PORTRAIT.
Has Been Hung in the Royal Gallery,
L63acn, ar Is Greatly Admired
ia by American Artist.

The picture OF Miss Daisy Letter,
which has been painted by Sargent, the
American artist, now hangs in the royal
gallery in London and is greatly ad-
mired. Like the portraits of Mrs. and
Miss Letter, this one is full leI 9Th, while
that of Mrs. Curzon is three-quarters
length. The London press, comment
ing in fattering manner on the por-
trait Of the beautiful American, COM
p2res the work of Sargent to that of
Millais, and the subject with its flutter-
ing draperies, its captivating express
sion. and momentary action, is said to
make other portraits in the room with
it look garish, posed, or &C Smonplace.
Mr.. Curzon has returned to the hcusc
of commons in London. Mrs. Letter
says his breakdown, that was reported
in the papers at Londan, was caused by
overwork. His enforced absence has
had most beneficial effect upon his
health. He was cheered enthusiastical-
ly when he returned to his place in par
lament. The London papers spoke of
this as an evidence of Mr.. Curzonis popu-
larity, saying further that he was al
most overwhelmed with congratula-
tions by his colleagues.
