Letter to Gov. Powers from Senator Hale Saws
Coast viii! Be Guarded.

Governor Powers has for some time
been in active communication with our
senators and representatives in Con
Sress, and With the departments at
Washington, relative to better or more
adequate provision for the protection of
our cities and towns, along the line OF
thing possible will be done by the gov
eminent to protect the people, and
property of such towns, though the
government does not anticipate any
immediate or remote danger, from the
incursions OF Spanish cruisers.
Among the letters received by the
Governor, is the following from Senator
Hale, which Will convey an idea of
what is being accomplished:
United States Senate,
Washington. -. G., April ~, 1895.
My dear Governor:
Yours received. We are. and have
been, doing everything we can to haze
may he. OF course as we have beel
crowded into war, We lack both guns
and water craft in sufficient supply 20
protect our long shore, but both the
war and the navy departments are
alive to the situation, and every effort
possible is being made 10 insure safety.
! have spent a good deal OF time 1T
the navy department. with the score
tary and others. and a plan has beer
matured for Il double line Of patrol
along the whole coast, the outer line be-
ing at sea, and ON watch fur amy hos
tile craft, while there will be an inner
shore line. with armed vessels. located
at different points along our coast.
especially those most likely to be as
sailed, like the exposed points in Wash
inSton county, Ear iIarbor and Mi.
Desert Island. including the western
land. the mouth Of the kennebcc ANA
Portland, although the latter is pretty
Well cared for by its batteries.
Gen. Wilson told me. last night. that
he had sent Col. HoXie into the eastern
part of the State, to locate batteries
whenever guns can he procured.
You and all our people, may be sura
that all will be done that can be with
the appliances at hand. The navy de-
partment is. all the while buying SUCH
ships as can have guns mounted upon
them for the patrol purposes indicated,
and we shall soon have large fleet of
this kind.
Now that the war has come, there
is nothing Ia do but to strengthen the
administration, ana make ii as sharp
and short as is possible.
Yours truly,
(Signed EUGENE. HALE.

HANG OUT OLD GLORY.
Let Every Augustan Show His Al
legiance to the Flag.
SNOW the Stars and Stripes. Emblem OF Lib.
erty the World Over!
PUT OUT OLD GLORY!

PUT OUT OLD GLORY!
Isn't it about time for Augusta 70
SNOW some patriotism?
There it enough of it among our cit
izens-no city or town in Maine has
more-but it is time to show it,
Therefore, put out OLD GLORY,
Almost every city in the State is re-
ported to be decked with the Stars and
Stripes and gay bunting, yet but a
comparatively few buildings in our be-
loved city show a flag.
PUT OUT OLD GLORY.
1t Is time when every American cit
iZen is facing a situation a thousand
fold more serious than any since the
days of 1861. At that time Old Glory
waved from the home and business
place of every patriotic citizen. We
are now all patriotic
PUT OUT OLD GLORY,
The flag is represented on the high
seas by the finest fleet America ever
possessed and will soon be flying at
the head of over 10000 regulars and
$4,000 volunteers, with millions more
ready to step to the front Would you
be backward?
PUT OUT OLD GLORY,
No one regrets it--no one demands
it-no one commands it-but is il not
time that all of us show our allegiance
To the Stars and Stripes by at least
llinSing her glorious folds to the breeze
from every building and flagstaff in the
city We are in the midst of war
stern, cruel war. Let us show our pat
rintism by
HANGING OUT OLD GLORY!
In a few days the troops viii arri"e
here and they should see on every
building the proud emblem of the coun-
try to whose service they are pledgins
their lives. The flag should float every
where now that our country is involved
in a foreign war. Flags are inexpen-
sive and those who do not possess one
should make Il purchase at once and
keep it flying to the breeze. Thosa
who have shown their colors already
have set a good example to follow, and
both in the business and residential
portions of the city hundreds of flags
should be kept flying every day.
SO HANG OUT OLD GLORY.

Commissary General George l..

ing other necessary preparations and
plans. He will he assisted in his work
BY a man who is a practical grocer and
meat buyer, being able to cut the meat
if necessary. The meats used during
the coming encampment will be bought
in bulk. and Will be cut into slices at
the camp, instead of at the stores.

set, Wednesday, by d crew of II. r.
.Randail'S men.
The field is in very good condition for
so short time after the rain storm,
being of a sandy nature, yet it is very
damp and would be cold for the Guard.
The situation of the Grounds is such
that all the wind strikes them directly,
and to those who were not hard at
work. the day seemed cold one,
With the board floors, and the good
canvass tents, the Guard should be
fairly comfortable by another week, but
the wisdom Of the Governor in delay
ing on the account of the cold, damp
weather is certainly apparent
A Waterman was on duty all Wednes-
day night, and more will be added as
soon as the tents are erected. and other
cduipments moved to the grounds.
The developments at the headquar-
ters of the Guard at the State House,
were not very Important Wednesday,
and consisted in what would naturally
follow an order for the concentration
of the troops.
The regular orders We're sent to the
commanding officers: the greater part
of the transportation tickets We're
mailed to the companies: the legSinSs
were sent by express to the companies
and Adjutant General Richards put IN
busy day in answering correspond
ence. which is much greater than any
one would suppose, and consulting with
the other officers.
