The United States Consul at Mag

The United States Consul at Mag
deburg, Germany, describes an
electrical farm operated in Ger
many, in which the power for gen
Grating the electric current was de-
rived from a steam whose waters
were damned up to secure the nee
essary fall to turn a large turbine
wheel. Nearly all the farm machin-
cry, including pumps, harvesters,
feed cutters, thrashing machines,
churns and ploughs, we're operated
by the electricity thus generated,
which was conducted to all parts OF
the farm on overhead wires.

SENATOR NELSON.

One of the first acts of the coming
session Of the legislature will be
the reelection to the United States
Senate of Hon. Knute Nelson. The
party is unanimous on this subject,
and every Republican member of
the Legislature is anxious to have
the time arrive when the vote can
be cast. and Mr.. Nelson made the
unanimous nominee Of the Republi-
can caucus.
Senator Nelson is deserving of it.
Few first termers in the United
Senate have as good a record as the
junior senator from Minnesota. He
has stood for wise and conservative
legislation and has made worthy
counsellor for his colleagues in that
body.
Senator Nelson has been safe
party man at home, and his speeches
have contributedEm much to the sue
cess of his party in this State, par
ticularly his wise discourse on the
Philippine problem, which was
translated into several different
tongues and used all over the Unit
ed States. His work on the stump
has assisted materially in electing a
body of Legislators overwhelmingly
Republican, and they will all cast
their vote for the man who helped
elect them.

Inasmuch as there are always
about one half of the State and coun-
ty ballots returned to the county
auditor after election, why would it
not be good plan to have those
leftover ballots turned over to the
schools OF the county about six
months or more after election, and
give the pupils biennial lesson in
voting. By doing this the boys,
when they arrive at the age OF q
years, would be thoroughly educat-
ed in marking their ballots, and also
on how to conduct an election. THE
GAZETTE believes that this is one of
the best educational features that
could be added to the public school
system,

ton the basis of representation is,
however, little likely to receive
much serious support for two rea-
sons. First. it is contrary to the
provisions of the Federal Constitr..

distinctly and unfairly to the bene-
fit of those States, like Colorado
and Idaho. in which women have
the right of suffrage on terms OF
equality with mer. Under such a
system the more liberal the election
laws of State the larger would
be it's representation.

by begging the father not to vote

AT HE STATE PRISON.
Inmates Now Number 22O-The Various In
dustries Are Prospecting

p. l.. Dennison, clerk of the Maine
State prison, says:
We have pretty full house now.
There are 220 inmates. which is only
10 below out high water mark. There
are 20 who Will leave the institution
between now and the first of June.

from the spring terms Of court-they
are always productive Of quite fair
crop. though the winter has been
comparatively light one for crime.
The health of the prisoners is excel
lent. We have had no sickness to
speak Of, and things are moving very
smoothly
Mr.. DrnnisOn says that the old man
knights, who is in his S3rd year Of
life and his Ard year of servitude, is
as clipper as ever. He is in his Gus
tomary health and has abandoned the
idea that he wants to leave the prison
and go and hunt up his surviving rel
atiVes. At one time some of his peo-
pla used to write letters to the old man
and urge him to try and get pardon.
but the officials discontinued this line
Of communication. telling them that
it only served to make the prisoner dis
contented and stir up ideas of liberty
which he had forgotten.
They saw the force of the argument
and since then have striven to cheer
him up without suggesting his release.
Old and childish as he is now, he would
not enjoy the outside world, and it
would all be so new and strange to
him that he could not find his way
round his old haunts, and would find
no one that he knew if he did. Since
then knight has become resigned to
life behind the bars and never suggests
such a thing as wanting to look again
on the scenes of his earlier years.
Mr.. Dennison says that the state Is
going to make a handsome profit on
its harnesses. this year. Under the
Supervision of Charles f. Shorey the
harness department has become sure
dividend producer and the State prison
harnesses are always in demand. The
force is working as hard as it can, but

Will Saver Connection With His Church
When His Present Year Ends.

Rev. T.. S. Stackpole will not continue
as the pastor of the Green Street Meth
odist church, after the close of the
present conference year in April. A
majority of the church officials have
urged him to return for another year.
and nearly all the members of his
parish are very earnest in desiring to
keep him here, but inasmuch as there
is not perfect unanimity in the matter.
and for various other reasons of per
sonal nature, DR.. Stackpole has an
nounced to the church his decision.
Dr. Stackpole came here from Au-
burn. two years ago, and has been
very successful in his work. His de
parture will be a distinct loss to the
church and to the city. where he has
made many friends. He is man of
broad culture, of exceptionally scholar
" attainments, and is a polished
speaker of much force and eloquence-
The Methodists of Maine recognize him

nomination. That he has decided to
leave Augusta will be deeply regretted

Through Augusta.

special train passed through the
city at 80, Friday afternoon. in
charge Of Conductor Clement that
contained a conelomerate mass of
humanity such as one seldom sees.
There We're eight coaches and a bag
gage car, and on the train We're be-
tween 800 and GOO Russian Jews.
These immigrants came from London
by steamer. ana left st. John, y. T.,
by rail, at o'clock. Friday night
They We're bound to Boston, New York
and other points West. This was the
third train load Of these people who
have been taken West this winter.
There We're Of the entire lot. but two
who could speak English. and they
found ample opportunity to answer
questions While the train stopped at
the station. Among other questions
asked of one Of them was if he left
England to escape the possibility Of
being sent out to fight the Beers.
'Oh, no. he said, "zere was no

Another amusing feature during
their stay here was to see them hang
around in search of bread and other
eatables. They swooped down on
Viewers restaurant and bought every
loaf they could get. And at the same
time others sought something to drink
presumably tea-armed with tin
coffee pots. large and small sized. dip
pers and earthenware mugs. They
must have caused quite a little boom
in trade.
In point of dress they displayed 4
great variety of costumes, some Of
them almost beyond conception. There
was to be seen every type Of Jewish
nationality. and altogether they We're
