Leaves Behind a Wife and Three
Children.
Had Sent Them Into
the Country.
SuppOsed TO Have Collected In
surance Money Due Him.

welsford A. Moshier. who for many
ysars past has been most skil'fol line
man ON the Cape Elizabeth branch Of
what Is now the Portland railroad. seem
to have disappeared, much to the anxiety
of his wife ana three children.
Mrs. Moshier was seen yesterday by a
reporter OF the PRESS. She was at the
home of her ister, Mrs Sweeney, on East
High street, south Portland, and her
deep anxiety as to the whereabouts Of her
husband was most visibly depicted on he'
face. Surrounded by two Of her children
she told this story:
About one month ago we were burned
out. Our home was In South Portland
not far from broadway near Pine street.
After we lost our home We stayed for
about two weeks ut a. Clark street In
Portland. Just two weeks ago last Tues
day MIR. Moshier took me and my three
children to Union station and sent us to
visit A.. L.. Vannah Of Cumberland
Center. Leaving mo he said: Il will be
sure and be out Saturday night, perhaps
uncle will drive you In. Take $3-this
will do you until Saturday
"Mr. Moshisr not appearing as l e1'
pected, naturally 1 got anxious and early
in the next week l wrote letter to a
relative In Woodfords to s,e II she could
learn anything us to Mr.. Moshier's 8 where
abouts. My friend was busy and didn''
have the time to look into the matter, SO
sat down and wrote letter to Mr..
Mcshisr whose address was knightville.
No reply was received and at length
wrote a second letter and gave It to my
cousin with request that 1t bs delivered
to a motornsn Of the road who possibly
would know something about my hus'
band.
"The motorman looking ut the address
on the letter said Il don't know any thing
about the man except that he has left
town"
''Tbis news almost staggered me and
tuesday morning went to the knight
willie post Office and found that my letters
my husband were still unoalled for.
went to our old home In South Portland
and found that the apartments In the
barn which l supposed In my absence
were teing prepared were not ready fol
use. Returning to the Knightville cffics
I asked the postmaster If he had seen Mr.,
Moshisr lately. The reply was. Not since
Wednesday, n week or more ago.. On
that day MIR. Moshisr was at Knlghtville
and asked If he wanted any letters, said
'No. don't want to be bothered with
them. "
Closing her interview Mrs. Moshier
said, "This Is the last trace have been
able to get of my husband
1t is understood that when MIR.
Moshier's house was burned there was All
Insurance of $500 on the furniture and
$1,000 on the house. How much Of this he
may have collected is not now known &c
q certainty.

There is at least one class OF army
contractors who will never again
have an opportunity to rob Uncle
Sam. 1t is those who made the
uniforms for the army and navy.
Within three months the govern
ment will have in operation two
large factories for the manufacture
of clothing for enlisted men. Con
gress set apart $l5O,OOO for the
work, and the buildings would have
been completed a year age but for
the war with Spain. One factory
will be situated in the navy yard in
California and the other in New
York. With the new factories the
government will be independent OF
the private dealers and there will
always be on hand a large stock OF
clothing for emergencies, such as
the Spanish war presented,-EX-

Hon. Joe W. Baily, of Gainesville,
Texas, arrived here last night and
was met by a delegation of his
friends and admirers and taken to
the Randolf, where a suit of rooms
was given to him for his disposal.
We learn from listning to those who
have heretofore shaped Bowie coun-
ty politics and who have pull with
the voter, that Mr.. Baily is the
man who will capture the InstruC-
tion for U. S. Senator from this
county, how this may be we know
not, but we do know that the CON
gresham has made some strong
friends here among the politicians
and when man is looking for an
office, these are the kind of friends
he first wants to meet and get solid
with. Joe Baily is no mans fool
and he is not out making speeches
just to hear his own sweet melodi-
Gus voice. We welcome the distin

AN APPEAL TO LABOR.
WOrkingmen Asked to Unite and De-
feat President Mckinley.

Boston, Sept. Is. NJ. T.-Geo.
S. Boutwell,, ex-secretary and treas
urer. who was prominent in the
auti-imperialist movement, in a let
ter made public at labor cele0ra-
tion last night, calls upon labor to
unite and defeat President Mchin-
ley. He says in part:
"To me and to you one topic is
supreme over all others when ques-
tions Of public Importance are un-
der consideration The nation is
passing through crisis, or rather
| it is in a crisis, which portends all
of evil to the laboring population
that can over come to them; thei:
downfall from a condition of indie
pendence, of power in the affairs OF
the country, to a state OF servlllty
through competition of the millions
of the Oriental world.
If the Philippines are ever TO oe
surrendered, so says the president
they are to be conquered and they
are to be kept within or under the
| jurisdiction of the United States
The laboring population of the
country have no means of averting
the evil, and do not hesitate in ad
vancing it. Let them unitedly anc
with energy oppose the reelection
of President Mckinley and theil
days Of toll will be ended and the
country will be saved from the
grasp of imperialism.

America Advancing

American locomotives are hauling
English trains, and the English
trains and Euglishmen are rolling
over American steel rails. Ourma
chinery is sold all over the world. A
great American remedy, Hostel
ter's Stomach Bitters, is gradually
working it's way to all parts of the
globe where dyspepsia and indiges-
tion thrive. Like all American
products, it is honest, and does just
what it claims to do The most
stubborn cases of constipation bill
iousness, nervousness, liver and kid
ney troubles must yield to it. 1t is
the most perfect remedy ever de-
vised for weak stomachs, For fifty
years it has heen famous for its as
tonishing efficacy. 1t is a perfectly
natural remedy, and there is moth
ing to equal It, See that a private

We endorse the following from the
Arkansas Democrat: In the opin-
ion of the Democrat the imposition
of a bread-and water sentence OF
any court or jury is out of keeping
with modern civilization. Such a
punishment will naturally subject
the victim to physical ills. There is
not sufficient nourishment in bread
and water to protect the human
system from disease 1t is not the
purpose Of the law to inAiCt cruel
or inhuman punishment upon any
one. If such law remains on our
statutes it certainly does not speak
well for the legislative department
of the government. We believe in
enforcing the law as a general thing
but there are exceptions. Let us
not infict upon a vagrant seVerer
punishment than upon a murderer
awaiting execution. The latter is
well fed Notwithstanding ne may
have committed a diaboliCal crime,
and the same may be said of the
convict serving a life sentence. OF
course the vagrant should be pun
ished. The man who is able to work
and won't work when employment
can be had Notwithstanding his
needs, ought to be punished, but
we must not return to the barbar-
Gus methods of long years ago in
the punishment of our criminals. -
