The miners unions Of this state
unite 1000 votes by fraternal ties
and they have been permanently
united against Sieunenbergism
from date prior to last election.

The delay in the contamination
of the Big Buffalo transfer has
been the occasion Of general com
ment since June Ist. The break
in the transaction has caused q
general business disturbance.
The restlessness, however, Is due
to a nisconcepiion of the true con-
di.ions. The statement is freely
made that the great mine has not
lost value by the development.
The ore still shows high values,
and the quantity is assured by the
explorations. The failure of the
contamination of the big deal is
the result Of contention on the part
OF the promoters. 1t Is generally
believed that Sweeney and Clark
who forfeited the bond, will still
become the purchasers Of the mine
and the original owners will receive
the full amount of the considera.

Prof A. B. Leckenby, an expert OF
,he United States Department of Ag-
riculture; visited vineland the other
day. Prof. Reckenby had four years
experience as chief advisor and irri-
cation expert to the great Kern
County Land company of California,
and has spent many years III study
of colony work on irrigated lands.
1t is therefore of great interest 10
know that he endorses the methods
of the management as being the
best he has seen in vogue in
any similar enterprise, and worthy
of emulation by managers of other
companies. The policy of the Vine
land company is to encourage and
assist the thrifty settler in all proper
ways; not with money, but with easy
payments for the lands, furnishing
employment for surplus labor, and
especially in giving each settler the
benefit OF years of study and exper-
fence in irrigation farming, and home
building, while never interfering
with mans independence in thought
and action. Careful restrictions in
the contracts aud deeds mutually pro-
tect all of the settlers, as well as the
company, and are found to work well
in practice.

City Council Meeting.

The city council met in regular session
Monday night. The question Of license
for meat peddlers came up in petition
presented by Attorney Mcfarland. An
ordinance was asked by the established
ratail butchers fixing a license Of four
dollars day. This rate was considered
prohibitive and after discussions an
amendment was passed fixing the license
at $50 quarter. The city attorney was
instructed to prepare an ordinance to be
passed at the next meeting. This action
will permit peddlers to take out license
for shorter time than quarter at
proporiionate rates.
The usual monthly reports of officials
and running expenses were read an ap-
proved or referred to appropriate COM
mittees.
The reports Of the justices Of peace
revealed the fact that Justice McConkey
imposes only the light fine of one dollar
upon ordinary drunks. This fine was
generally paid with the costs. Justice
Sweets regular charge seems to have
been from five TO ten dollars for the same
ofiense with very few cash payments.
The city had an entirely new source Of
expense during the past month. A pes,
house had been established on Snake
river two miles above the city and three
patients had been committed. DIR. Shat
explained that these men had not been
been afflicted with small pox or any
other dangerous disease but II became
necessary to isolate them because they
presented suspicious appearance and
the public demanded their removal from
the city. Two Of the patients have re
covered and the third will be discharged
in few days.
The question Of the use of cement
gravel upon the streets. deposit OF
which has been found within the city
limits was suggested by COMMISSIONS,
Miller and endorsed by Councilman
Wilkinson. The mayor and others did
not favor expenditure Of public money
for such work. Others chimed in for q
more pretentious pavement or none.
The question Of an arc light at the ap
proach OF the Snake river bridge wa,
favorably considered and the light com
mittee was authorized to have ons
established at some point to meet thi,
demand.
Health oficer Sterling reported tn.
existence Of cesspools in connection
with ianndries different parts Of the city
that we're a menace to the health of tn,
residence of these districts surrounding
them. The health committee wa
instructed TO abate the nuisance. Som,
Of these laandries are located in districts
that cannot he drained on account of tn,
high water in the rivers.
The street commissioners called at
tention TO the fact that Wood stree
which had recently been established hal
never been opened. He was instructed
to open the same and put in the necessar,
cross walks,
The question OF the dedication OF tn,
city park in accordance with the vote o
the council at a former meeting was pass
ed till the special meeting OF wednesda,
night when the attorney will prepare an
ordinance setting apart the tract at the
head Of Fifth street grade for a public
park. The council adjourned to NEE,
Wednesday June I4th as a canvassine
board and to attend other business which
might properly come before them.

Maine Fish and Game Notes.

About 1900 bushels of herring were TAX
en- in the various weirs at North Haven
last week. This is the first catch Of any
consequence of the season.
James o. Storer, superintendent Of the
WaldOboro fish stream, reports that ne
has caught PA barrels of alewives, and
has them ready for shipment.
Little Johnnie Rowe of South Atkinson.
aged six years, caught sixteen good sized
fish in Perley's mill pond last week. 1t
was his first attempt at fishing and he Is
quite elated over his good success.
1t is rarely that a Pittsfield angler re
turns home from fishing trip without
being in position to show to his friends
that his jaunt is to be in no way conSlu-
cred a dismal failure. A shining example
of this fact was recently displayed by @.
Il. Warner and w. a. ErSkine in return
ing from trip to the Bracket brook.
They had but one fish, good sized one.
1t was kept wrapt up in paper and was
occasionally drawn forth and held up to
the astonished gaze of those of an en-
quiring mind anxious to know of their
success. No one was allowed to look at
it long or scrutiniZe it at short range.
ID. NJ. Parks. however, saw the fish, not
ed its spots and told them that they had
done well but it was the first time that
he had ever been led to suspect that rock
cod inhabited the waters of the brook. A
fish pedder supplied the catch.-Bangor
