JANETTE H. KNOX

is recognized as one of the fore
most educators of the north
west. She has had long ex-
perience as school teacher,
having taught about forty
terms in the public schools and
nine years in college. She has
degrees from some of the best
colleges in the east and not
merely a re-hash that is given
in a normal school. She is we'll
known throughout the state
and particularly in Richland
county, where she together
with her husband, DIR. Knox of
this city, have for several years
taught in the University here.
She has more college degrees
than any other woman in the
state, and is most eminently
qualified to take charge of our
schools. Nothing is too good
for the growing population
that will soon be casting the
vote of our. commonwealth.
We have an opportunity to put
our schools in the charge of
this lady who stands head and
shoulders above her opponent.
Lets do it. Vote for her and
have your wife do likewise;
you will never regret it.
ID. c.. STEELE
of Fairmount is our choice for

toned. He will make a good
coroner.
The candidates for the house
of representatives are E.
Hunger, H. f. Crandall and
N. ArntsOn.
E. HUNGER
was born in Germany in
1849. In 1879 he moved
to America and settled in

servative man and is we'll and

Miss Authony's sOth Birthday.

To celebrate adequately the four score

La the evening there will be card
reception for Mss Anthony, at when
she will r. ceive with some members oil
the birthday committee. The occasion
will be one of especial interest ia several
ways which the committee at present
refuses to divuge. Evidently the wo-
men who compose it are determined to
disprove the old saying that women can

thousands of women who have reached
the point of realizing even in limited

necessary TO help them To the points OF

opportunity to testify by their presence

Stndeut Rumanis m.

A short time ago The Sophomore class
of a Massachusetts college, in an attempt
to break up Freshman class supper,
came into open collision with the police,
whom they largely outnumbered, and beat
the officers with their own clubs. Two
or three days ago the Sophomore class OF
small Pennsylvania college dragged two
Freshmen from their beds in their night
clothes, gagged them, lashed them TO trees,
and beat them with clubs and barrel slaves
until they became unconscious.
1t is i'm possible to follow the workings
of a college students mind, and to under
stand by what process of reasoning such
proceedings as these are made TO appear
anything other than lawlessness and
brutality. The offence. in the one case,
was that of resisting the police; in The
other it was murderous assault, and OF
particularly cowardly type. as the assailants
heavily outnumbered the victims. The
inc idents referred to are. unfortunately
not exceptional There was degree
more of violence than usual, but 10 their
essential features, they are typical of many
student demonstrations which are excused
on The ground of the exuberance OF youth,
and go unpunished, uoiess by mud
exercise of college discipline.
This is a serious mistake. Noblesse

men in colleges enjoy place them under

Since the purchase of the power on the
30 NJ lie rips, about three miles from this
village on the direct road to Waterville,
the surmises are many among the busi-
ness men in this village as for what pur-
pose or purposes the power will be
utilized. IL is understood that manufac
turing plants of some kind, probably a
wooden mill or pdlp mill, will be built
there, and many are the rumors that
power will be generated at that place to
be used for electric lighting purposes in
this village. Not few have the idea
that power will be furnished there for
an electric railroad from Benton to Ban
gor, thus connecting Waterville and
Bangor. The report is being circulated
that the roadbed as constructed by the
management of the Wiscasset & Quebec
Railroad will be purchased between
Burnham and this village, this to be
utilized in constructing an electric. 1t
ia an acknowledged fact that this IS one
of the best water powers on the river
and it is expected that it will be fully
utilized in the near future.

Keep the Cow Clean.

While the udder of the COW should be
washed at every milking to insure perfect
cleanliness of the milk, yet the COW should
be kept where she will be clean. The
dairyman who allows his stalls to be in
such condition that the sides OF the COWS
become plastered with filth and the udders
and teats smeared with the liquids of the
stalls is guilty of neglect. The use o.
straw for several successive days ano
nights without change is mis- AXE. II
shr edded cornstalks and cut straw are put
in the stalls every day, using only fresh
