the American people. 1t has already
changed it's tune under the new manage
ment, but it is an uphill undertaking to
regain public favor after it has been once
lost. A New York correspondent says:
1t was at one time supposed that Nc
Clure would be the man for the Harper s,
but the fact that he was publisher of a
rival magazine at lower price, proved a
decided objection. Mcclure will now en-
deavor to make his magazine still more
powerful rival. Other rivals may also
spring into existence, as there seems no
end to these periodical issues. Yes,
reader, the number of monthles and illus
trated weeklies in this country is now by
exact count three hundred and twenty
four, and if SO many can be sustained why
not more? True enough, and the cry is
still they come. The only way the Har-
pers can meet the present condition is to
start low priced monthly, and perhaps
they will turn their present weekly into
that shape. This will enable them to
head off Mcclure, whose refusal to become
a partner renders him still more formid-
able and no doubt Harvey will carry out
my suggestion. He is the only man that
can match Mcclure and the literary world
will be deeply interested in this battle Of
the giants

PITTsFIELD. Thanksgiving has passed
with its usual home gathering Of families
and friends, and tables laden with turkey g.
ducks, chickens, etc, and all the good things
which the land affords. Now preparations
are being made for Christmas. -. The Uni
versalist people are preparing very elaborate
ly for great festival and fair the present
week. They have large amount of room
in their new church for such gatherings, a
large and beautiful parlor, large dinning
room, kitchen, etc, and many competent
ladies to conduct such an affair and make it
success, -. The Free Will Ba ptst and
Methodist people are holding a series of
meetings conducted by evangelist Gale, who,
OF course, is assisted by our local preachers.
The meetings thus far have been very in
teresting and successful. Our town library
has been moved from the Perkins block to
the front room of the Osborne block. The
library will be open on Tuesdays, Wednes-
days and Saturdays... Mr.. j. S. Davis is
confined to the house for day or two with
severe cold. Mrs. Davis has had several

but is recovering from them. Our town
schools began Monday. Mr.. Martin Ames
moved his family from Athens recently, to

1t is noticeable that the leaders of the
sO-called anti cxpansionists - the men
who are ''agin the government t''-are al
most without exception ex office holders
men who had fed at the public crib
and been honored with public station for
years, but who, for one cause or another,
have been left out in the cold. This may
OF may not be looked upon as favoring
the perpetuation of a class of office hold :
ers 1t is entirely safe to say that if
Schurz, Boutwell,, and others who are en-
gagged in giving aid and comfort to Agun-
aldo, were holding high official positions
to- day under the present Administration
they would be rallying under Old Glory
rather than trying to bring it to the dust
and to humiliate before the civilized
world the country of which it is the proud
emblem. The Journal looks at it as an
argument against an office holding class.
II does not believe in patriotism that is
conditional on holding salaried positions
under the government. And if, as it APP
pears at the present time, the longer such
men have been in Office the bitterer foes
Of their country they become when turned
out we should favor shortening their terms
OF office very materially. This of course
does not apply to members of Congress or
of State legislatures, in which positions
long experience tells; but when man has
he no longer represents his constituents,
he should be promptly retired.

The Silver Republicans (?) have decided
to continue as an annex to the Democratic

The use of such a prefix to Republican

very suggestive of brass.

The news of the financial embarrass-

houses of this country. 1t has had in its
service as editors and contributors the
best literary and journalistic as well as ar

the firm should have to-day liabilities Of
about s5, 500, 900 is not clearly explained.

At meeting held Nov. 29th the Uni

mously to abolish hazing Tie action
was taken, not through any instigaton of
the faculty or any outside influence, but
the students simply came TO the conclu-
sion that there has been too much hazing
going on in the college and determined to
act for themselves.
The U. of NJ students are entitled to
credit for this manly and sensible action.
Tue so-called hazing is not only silly
ia the extreme but is sometimes attended
with serious and even fatal results, and no
good can possibly come from it. If this
position is adhered to there is sure to be
an increased attendance at the University
Of Maine, with a lesser attendance at col
Ieges where hazing is permitted,

A. A. Littlefeld address by W. W. Stetson,
State superintendent of schools; remarks
and recitations; singing America by the au-
dience.. The friends of the East Maine
Conference Seminary dt Bucksport are
highly encouraged at the prospect of decid.
ed accessions to the school property by the
liberality of Mrs. John G. Moore, acting
upon the wishes of her late husband. who
was student of the Z. NJ. G. S. in 1864-65
and had always been tavorably inclined
towards the school and town. Mrs. Moore
was in town some two months ago and look
ed over the school in company with some of
the trustees She seemed favorably i'm
pressed and left with the unders tanding
that an architect would be sent later. Last
week w. W. Kent of New York an architect
for. many years in the employ of the Moores'
arrived in town and in company with Hon.
Parker Spofford made a very thorough ex-
of the present buildings and
grounds, taking copious notes, sketches and
measurements. The architect appeared
much interested in the prospective work and
intimated that his recommendation would be
for new memorial building, to be erected
between the present domitory and the chapel,
to contain chapel or assembly hall and
spacious gymnasium. He also thought it
probable that soma changes and improve
ments might be made upon the present
buildings

The State election is nearly year off,
but the political pot is already on the
fire-in some places simmering slowly, in
others bubbling fiercely, and elsewhere
not yet warmed up. The Governorship is
not likely to be bone of contention next
year, as it seems foregone conclusion
that the Powers that be will be succeeded
by DR.. Hill of Augusta--a place famous
for its hills. With the visionary second
term in view future asprants for the
Gube.natorial chair will have to keep
their ambition on ice for nearly five years.
Possibly candidate may show up at the
next State convention, but he would have
an up hill time of it.
Up to- date, Waldo county is quiescent.
There has been some talk of new candi-
dates for the Senatorship, but if Senator
Perce desires reelection it will no
doubt be conceded to him. He made a
good record at Augusta last winter and
can do better service in his second term
than would be possible for new man.
This is also true of representatives; but
under the present class system, each town
naming the representatives in turn, only
one term is possible. With the cities it is
different; they can return their represen-
tative as often as they choose and thus
have in the legislature men of experience,
who are the controlling element at Angus
ia. They have the Speakership and head
all the important committees, while the
representatives from the country towns,
men of equal or even greater ability, get
none of the honors and have comparative
ly no influence.
In Congress the situation is the same.
While it is tlattering to our State pride
to assume that our Congressional dele
cation has led all others in ability, this
is not altogether true. 1t is the expert
ence gained by long service that has given
the Maine delegation in Congress the
great influence universally conceded it,
As to the Legislature, while it may not
be practicable to change the present sys-
TEN of re electing representatives, the fact
remains that the House is controlled
and legislation shaped by the city delega-
tions, who are not handicapped by the
one term rule which applies to the towns
