Although Maine crops are not al
they should be this year Massachusetts
is no better off in that respect.
Massachusetts crops according To
the July report of the state
board of agriculture are practi-
cally a failure. That does not mean
there are no crops. but it means that
the drouth of the early summer caused
the hay crop to be about half the usu-
al yield. the apple and the pear crops
small and the peach crop complete
failure. Forage crops make a better
showing and potatoes are good, but
fewer than the average.

Hon. Luther +. Mckinney of Bridg
ton evidently is not man to be cas-
lily cast down. He tells the Biddeford
Record that he thinks there is a great
chance for the Democrats in the First
district. He figures it out that no
other candidate can secure the vote that
Mr.. Reed has received, and that being
a special election there will be little in
tereSt which will give the Democrats
a chance. AS for himself the Record
quotes Mr.. Mckinney as saying. 1T is
for the party to mourn the candidate"
which evidently is a Typographical err
ror. compositors on Democratic papers
being 50 accustomed to mourning that
the word sort of drops in of itself.
What Mr.. Mckinney really said is
shown in the next sentence: 1T is
something that | never believed in and
never did. this going around seeking n

Mckinney will be the man.
