THE MAINE CIVIC LEAGUE.
Field Secretary Assured OF Sufficient
Financial Backing.

To representative Of the Boston Her
aid, who interviewed him Saturday, Rev
W. +. Berry Of Portland, field secretary
of the Maine Civic League, said he had
not yet fully decided where to establish
headquarters. but probably he should To-
cate in waterville, from which city he
was sent by the Maine Methodist confer
ence to his present pastorate, two years
ago. His wife will, for time at least,
assist him In the capacity of Office clerk.
"Our progress will necessarily be slow
at first" said he. "but we shall aim at
thorougbness in what we do. We do not
expect to be able to close all the rum
shops. and secure an impartial execution
of other laws, in q single year, or even in
i've years; yet believe that we will be
able to accomplish enough to convince
the Christian people of Maine of the eflici-
ency Of our plan"
The executive officers OF the league got
together in this city one day last week
ana discussed In a general way the affairs
of the organization. but the chief object
of their conference was to fix up the
financial end of the project. The mem
hers OF the executive committee who at
tended the meeting were: President
George G. burlington of Huntington,
who is at the head of the Pennington
normal school; Rev. DIR. A. I. Dunn Of
Waterville, secretary of the Maine Bap-
fist convention; Rev. j. III. Frost, pastor
of the Grace Methodist church, Bangor;
q II Oxran nf the RnntiSt
church at Houlton; Horace Purington
of Waterville, treasurer of the league; ;
Hiram Knowlton and Rev. W. +. Berry
of Portland.
=. The proposition made by Secretary
Berry, when the executive committee first
requested him to take up the field work
of the league, wasi that he would devote
his full time to the office, providing
suffic lent pledges of support could be
raised to insure vigorous prosecution
of the work, for period OF not less than
five years. He believed that. $1,000 year
would be enough to pay the salary of
secretary and clerk, Office rent, travel,
portage. printing and other necessary
expenses.
At the conference Of executive officers
last week, his proposition was accepted
and assurance was given that 5000
year for five years will be raised in &C.
oordance with his request. Rev. c. K
