HEADQUARTERS
REPUBLICAN STATE COMMITTEE,
AUGUSTA, MAINE, JAN. 4, 1900.
TO the Republicans of Maine Prior
to 1892 two Presidential electors at large,
corresponding to the two United States
senators, were nominated in State con-
vention, and the remaining electors, cor
responding to the members of the United
States House of Representatives were
nominated by the several congressional
district conventions.
The passage of the Australian Ballot
law entirely changed tie procedure. I'm
der the law, all Conventions are por-
ton of our election system, and this
ballot act requires that candidates to be
voted for by the Voters throughout the
whole State must be placed in nominal
ton by convention representing no less
constituency than the whole State.
Hence, all the candidates of a party for
Presidential electors must be nominated
in State Convention, and | have there
fore included in the call six electors.

50 Bishop Potter Tells Newspaper
Reporters.
Filipinos Not Fit for
Self Govt.
AguinaldO's Friends Not Look
ing for Success.

New York, March lp.--Bishop Potter
talked to newspaper reporters today. DIR.
Potter has Just returned from q five
months tour which included visits to
the Philippines. Japan ami India. The
trip was maze ct the Instance Of the
committee for increased respon slbilities
of the Protestant Episcopal church. He
was most interested, he said, In the CON-
dition OF affairs In Japan and China.
He noticed . gradual frisndiiness be.
tween the two nations and prophesied
that when Japan had taught the Chinese
the art Of war neither England, Russia,
nor Germany would decide the fate OF
the East. The Chinese do not love the
japanese, but rsoOanizinx that they have
nothing TO hope from the European
nations, are gladly establishing an en-
tents cortiale with the japanese.
referring to ths Philippine situation,
In an attitude of antagonism. He de-
ciined to say whether his opinions had
altered, but said he recognized the
question 40 a purely academic one.
"WhAtsver we might have done, he
said. "a year o. more back, there 10 but
one thing for rs to do now. and that is
to holi on to the islands and ass ume the
responsibility for their future.
"The military administration OF the
island Ia beyond praise. Gen. Otis has
not received the recognition to which
he Is entitled. New questions are arising
daily and he has handled them all With
discretion.
"Ons thing Is evident and that 10 that
the Bilipinos are In no condition for self
government. II civil government was
imposed 1t would need q large military
force to maintain it,"
'sevsral friends of ARuinaldo," con-
tinusd thu Bishop, "oallsd upon me In
Hong Kong, and they told me that they
were satisfied that there could be NO
success Tor his undertakings. The better
class OF FLIP mos are satisfied that Anne
rioan occupation means Increased pros
psrity and are not raising any objsc-
tions.'
Bishop Potter told Of visit he made
to q factory In Manila where about 450
Filipino boys and girls were spinning
cotton cloth. The overseer told him they
had learned to work the looms in about
six weeks, whereas Irish ami Scotch chill
dren took as many months before they
were OF any service.
Asked about the future Of the Anglican
church in the islands. Bishop Potter
said he saw no reason why 1t should not
successfully be introduced to the natives.
He had found. he said, no evidence Of
any pagan religion. Inc Roman Cstho-
lilo religion was pretty generally OBJ
served and as education spread. the tsnets
of the Anglican church would receive
general acceptance.

Trouble is Feared Because of the Rott,,no
Houses.
But a short time ago, Bayside fisher
men had their beer delivered 20 them bv
wagon. Those days not vast quantity
OF 1t was used there. Then a small bot
tling establishment was put up there and
there was evidence Of drunkenness when
the men were ashore. This year Bayside
Is TO be wide open. There are to be three
or 1our bottling houses, and the pro-
prletors ofall Of them expect to live.
Or course under the law, these places
cannot sell less than two cases but then
the people are often forgetful of what the
law is. The men who have the money
invested in fisheries down there, view the
increase in the beer business with alarm,
Ii the men, many of them foreigners, are
drinking and carousing ali night they
are not in very good shape for the work
, during the day. Then there is trouble
among the men on the fishing trips, for
with beer handy they are bound to
smuggle the stuff aboard and take it out
with them. There should be some way
to break up this business. How? Well.
that's another question.

ment Thursday, quite number of the
friends and members of the Fairtnn
Presbyterian Church gathered to cele.
brate the fiftieth anniversary of the
church. The afternoon service com
menced at three O'Clock. Many regrets
were expressed because of the absence of
the Rev. Symmes, former pastor of the
church. who was not able to be present
on account of illness in his family. TIE
Rev. R. Hillard Gage, of Wenonah
preached most instructive and inspir-
ing sermon. taking for his theme "The
Towers of Zion," based on Ps. 48:l2-l3.
Then followed plain, practical, and
most helpful address on Some of the
things Presbyterianism stands for" by
the Rev. S. w. Beach, of Bridgeton,
After this the new annex to the Sunday
School room was dedicated with appro-
pirate exercises conducted by the pastor.
Rev. J. N. Wagenhurst.
At the close of the afternoon service an
informal reception was held ana a lunch
was served by the ladies of the church.
In the evening quite large audience
gathered, and most eloquent sermon
was preached by the Rev. Geo. n. Hert-
zog, ofCedarville, on'The Test Question
from Luke 9: 20.
The Rev. Heber Fl. Beadle in his usual
interesting way gave short talk on,
why am Christian?" The services
were interspersed with several beautiful
anthems by the choir. A quartet by the
Misses Rae Livingston, Nella Starn and
Messrs. Parvin Connor, Byron Clark
was especially enjoyed. At the offerings
OF the day, enough money was received

At one O'Clock the patients had their
first dinner served in the main dining
rooms, most substantial meal being
prepared. They all seemed to be hungry
and ate all that was provided for them.
Supt. Elwell provided dinner for the
attendants from Trenton and the Trustees
in the family dining room.
Everyi hing is moving along smoothly
now. The patients are we'll cared for.
the attendants seem to be very earnest
and anxious to please, and Supt. and Mrs
Elwell are grasping the situation with an
understanding that is pleasing and
promises successful management.
DIR Smith was at the institution much
of the afternoon, and has arranged his
work most satisfac ory.
Supt. and Mrs. Ward, of Trenton, were
greatly pleased with the institution here,
and expressed themselves as feeling that
the patients who have so long been under
their care will be we'll looked after here.
Many of the patients who came here are
great workers and want to be actively
employed. One or two are expert bed
Makers and one woman has for years
had personal charge of the dining room
at Trenton. She wants to look after the
one here.
Others of the men are experts in work
ing about the grounds and they will do
much to beantfy the grounds surround
ing the institution.
The transfer was the greatest possible
success. The Board of Trustees deserve
all credit
