The outlook for Names winter crop is
good. Last Saturday rain affected the
ice but little and has merely delayed the
harvest a short time. After the thaw
there was 10 inches of good clear, black
ice on the kennebec. On the Hudson the
r ain dealt the ice crop a hard blow from
which it may not recover. Thus far not
a pound of ice has been taken from the
Hudson river north of Poughkeepsie and
but small amount from the creeks and
still water. Several thousand tons Of last

The Congressional committee investi-

and then e1pel him. The minority may

it requires a two-thiIds vote to expel, and

liz a recent interview Geo. S. Boutwell,,
the head of the so called Anti Imperiaist
League, is reported as saying of the Phil
ippines that he would remove the troops
and ships as soon as possible and leave
the islands to take care of themselves.
Of the Filipinos he said: Il would give
them freedom, and l regard them as cap
able of self government as are the people
of Maine.' 1t would hardly be seemly
to express in public print the opinion of
he people Of Maine of the author of this
remark. They may, in the opinion of
Mr.. Boutwell,, be no more capable of self
government than the half barbarians of
the Philippines, but their loyalty to their
country will hardly be questioned even by
