Reeds Farewell.

Before leaving for New FORK, on Sat-
day Hon. Thomas B. Reed addressed the
following letter to the Republicans of
he First Maine District:
To the Republicans of the First Maine
District:
While am naturally reluctant to OBJ
trude myself again upon public atten
ton even here at home; | am sure no
one would expect me to leave the First
Maine District after so long service
without some words expressing to you
my appreciation of your friendship and
my gratitude for your generous treat
ment. Words alone are quite inadequate
and | must appeal to your memories.
During three and twenty years of polit-
cal life, not always peaceful, you have
never questioned single public act of
mine. Other men have had to look after
their districts My district has looked
after me. This In the place where | WAS
born, where you know my short com
ings as well as do myself, gives me a
right to be proud Of my relations with
you. No honors are ever quite like
those which come from home. 1t would
not be just for me to withhold my
thanks from those Democrats who have
so often given me their votes. This
friendship can acknowledge with all
propiety even in letter to Republicans
for both they and you know that | have
never trimmed sail to catch the pass
ing breeze or ever flown doubtful flag.
Office as "a ribbon to stick in your
coat" is worth nobody's consideration.
Office as AN opportunity is worth all
consideration. That opportunity you
have given me untrammelled in the
fullest and amplest measure and | re-
turn you sincerest thanks. If have de.
served any praise it belongs of right to
you.
Whatever may happen am sure that
the First Maine District will always be
true to the principles of Liberty, Self
government and the Rights of Man.

Moderate Drinking.

Few things are more Amazing than the
lack of sense OF responsibility, in r.
gard 10 the evils OF intemperahc", 50
often found among portion OF The So
called upper classes" Nothing can be
more utterly shallow than the position
Of those who advocate moderate drink
ing and talk Of drawing "lhe line be-
tween use and abuse Nothing is more
Inconsistent than the heavy eOndemna-
ton which the moderate drinker usually
visits upon the drunkard or upon the
improperly committed under the in
tluence of drink. Whether the moderate
drinker becomes immoderate in his
drinking habits depends very much
upon his Inherited tendencies, his Ell
vironmept and the condition OF his
stomach and nerves. 1t may be gues-
tioued whether any man ever received
his first temptation TO drink from q
druukard. 1t is the moderate user
who first leads another 10 the downward
path. And no man ever became a
drunkard all at once. He first takes a
preparatory course In the ranks OF the
"mOderate' drinkers; and SO every man
who gives countenanee, by theory or
practice, to the moderate drinkers
habits is doing something, it may be
much, to swell the ranks of the immod-
crate drinkers; and so has some respon-
sibility for the degradation and suffering
resulting from this great evil.
The Somerset reporter., 1899-09-21

A notable gathering of prominent men
Interested in electric railways was held
at Merrymeeting Park, Thursday last, at
which consolidation of certain roads and
extension was the problem under con-
sideration. OF course Amos Gerald of
Fairfield, the pioneer in the construction
of trolley roads In Maine, was there and
led off In the proposed connection of
the different lines in western Maine by
the construction of road between
Brunswick and Yarmouth, which would
connect the lewiston system with
the Portland Y armouth system. Sur
veys are being made over this route,
there is much interest in it and its
friends are confident that 1t will be con-
structed, early. There are rumors of
other parties being ready to make other
connections in order to anticipate this
attempt of Maine to reach the metropolis
OF Massachusetts by trolley. The pre-
diction is made that by the latter part
of next summer it will be possible to
ride from Lewiston to Boston by the
electrics. 1t will be necessary to build
only few links.
