Fast Day In N. IL.

Gov. Rollins of New Hampshire
created something of a stir by his refer.
enee in his fast day proclamation to the
decadence of religion in the rural dis
tricts.
Governor Rollins attended a union
religious service at Concord, the State
capital, Thursday last, joined in by the
several denominations, in which he was
one of the speakers and in explanation
of his proclamation, among other re.
marks, said
"A point which think has been large
ly overlooked, il, that Christianity is
fundamental, that is to say, without it,
representative government at least, aud
in my Judgment, government of all
kinds, woul fall to the ground. This
basic fact being granted, Is there any
subject which can more pertinently oc-
cupy our attention than the subject of
the religious conGition Of the people of
the State? Aud if am right Ia my
statement that religious belief aud Oh
servance and church attendance are upon
the decline, is it not my duty TO call
public attention to it?
The holding of high office brings with
it great responsibilities which may not
be avoided, and, believing as do that
the conditions which | have outlined
exist in the State, feel it my duty to
call attention to them in a public man
ner. Undoubtedly the conditions which
have outlined exist throughout the
country, but am not in q position to
speak authoratively as to other States.
The Somerset reporter., 1899-04-20
The Lumber Outlook.

IL has been many years since the lum-
Der business In Maine has looked so
promising at this time IN the lumber
season. The only small speck on the
scene is the lateness OF the driving SEN
son, ard this may be more apparent
than real. long, VI run rain would
bring 1t along in a hurry.
The cut of spruce has been heavy on
the kennetec and the price is the best
for years. Most OF the cuts have been
sold at $500 or above, that is, those that
were for sale. The owners Of mills
along the river were the heaviest opera
tors, and they have no logs for sale, the
price for lumber IN the markets being
such that they can run their mills with a
fair margin for manufacturing and read
sale. The demand is excellent Mills
have been full Of orders for several
weeks and the proprietors have not been
able to f1l them Ms fast as they were
wanted.
1t IL understood that but eight mills
will be operated on the river against
double that number two years ago.
These are owned by the following con.
germs NJ. G. Shaw Lumber Co., Bath
South Gardiner Lumber Co.; Lawrence
Bros, South Gardiner; Joshua Gray &
Sons, Gardiner; Berlin Mills Co., Farm.
ingdale; Augusta Lumber Co., Lawrence,
Newhall & Co., Shawmut. The Rich.
mond mill owned by Elias Milliken will
saw some logs for M. G. Shaw, and Levi
Weston at Skowhegan will saw a guam
tity for local consumption and the gen
eral market. The reason why the mills
which will remain idle do not operate is
because they have not got the logs and
cannot purchase 80 as to make fair
profit in saving them.
The price of spruce has risen 81 above
the figure before the boom started. The
mills do not derive the full advantage of
this advance. This does not represent
80 on thousand profit, because pre-
viously business was done at loss, so
that now it is only a healthy business.
The price for which lumber is sold in
New York and sound ports. means that
the seller pays the freight, which, be-
cause Of great losses to shipping in the
last ak months, is lik. ly to be much
higher than last year.
The absorption of spruce wood and
logs by the pulp industry is factor in
the land and lumber question. The de-
mand for spruce from this source is
enormous aud growing rapidly.

Democratic Dinners.

The ten dollar plate dinner In the
Metropolitan Opera House III New York,
Thursday evening, in honor of the ami
versary of the birth Of Thomas j, fferson,
was a very magnificent affair. Ii was
anything but a representative OF j, fer
sonian simplicity. 1900 guests partici-
pated and large number OF spectators
occupied the galleries and boxes. The
80 tables were masses of flowers, to that
extent that guests could hardly look
across the tables to those on the other
side. Even the Hon. Perry Belmont
said there WAS rather too much In the
way of floral display for dinner for
men. He WAS solicitous in regard to The
way the plain Democrats In the West
would take 1t. Mr.. Justice Van Wyck,
the last Democratic candidate for gov
ernor, was the principal speaker. 1t
was Croker's show and he was exceed
ingly happy.
A Jefferson banquet was also held in
Milwaukee, Wisconsin, addressed by
Col VIM. j. Bryan, not 40 elaborate and
pluto-cratic as the New York affair, but
very wide of the supposed Jeffersonian
idea. Mr.. Bryan still believes in the en-
forced 10 to dollar, otherwise called
free coinage, and If that Ia not an issue
In 1900 1t will not be his fault.
The Somerset reporter., 1899-04-20
Mining In Concord,

There have been many stories In cir.
culstion aud some 10 print Ia regard o
the mining business In Concord, some Of
which have been very wide Of the truth.
w. \. Robinson Of Concord. was ia
town, last week, and gave The REPORTER
some information in regard 10 the worl
In his mine and In the Mcclure minr
about one-half mile from his place NJ
Robinson has six men ut work on The
ore bearing vein ia his ledge which j.
about feet vide. His shaft has been
run In on he brow Of hill and he has
sunk II " feet perpendicular from In
surface aud drift.d out to the surface on
the side hill He first discovered this lead
Nov. ID, 1897 and has traced 1t by crop.
pings IL miles y. K. and :. W. There
are several other leads, he states, run
ming parallel with the one on his farm.
Mr.. Robinson has sent samples every
week TO brother in Denver and exhibit.
ed to us the report OF the assay upon Il
sample be sent March 2. This showed
SO ounces of silver with d trace Of
gold and lead and would yield 1888 40 per
ton. The last assay received Apr 10 b.
gave at the rate of So in silver, S42 In
gold and $50 in lead to the ton.
Mr.. Mcclure has some ten men at
work mining ore and. about weeks ago,
shipped car load of SO bbls. TO New
Jersey to be worked. 1t is expected
that the result of this shipment will be-
known within week or so and it IL
awaited with much interest by the pro-
prietors OF mines in Concord and by
many other people.
The Somerset reporter., 1899-04-20
Fifty-Six Dead.

Disease was busy among Names
troops In the Spanish war If they did not
see fighting.
The total death rate of Maine men in
the Spanish war, as given at the office of
the adjutant general was sc, divided as
follows: First Regiment, 43; batteries,
10; Signal Corps, 3. The names of the
First Regiment and of the Signal Corps
who died have been given heretofore
The men of the batteries who died
were: John NJ. Gilbert, Battery c.,
Bangor; Ralph E. Bush, Battery d,
Lisbon Falls; Harry Al. Houston, G,
Gardiner; Forrest Hussey, D, Norridge-
wock; Peter A. Crockedle, B, West
field; Albert l.. Hamlius A, Lewiston ;
Ardaction Smith, c, Oakland; George II.
Bailey, b, Bangor; Wilbur fl. Savage,
d, Madison; Ernest c. Wade, D, Nor
ridgewock.
1t will be seen that Somerset county
furnished three Of these men In the ar
tillery who died, and Norrldgewock, two
of the three. This brings the casualties
Of war very near home.
A suggestion Ia made that the graves
of these fallen soldiers be decorated on
Memorial day this year. The sugges-
ton is good one and will doubtless be
acted upon.
