The Situation in Saco.

SACo, December Is. Rev. E. c. Strout,
pastor of the Saco Methodist church, who
created great sensation two weeks ago by
his lecture on "The Gates of He'll in Saco,''
continued the lecture this evening and spoke
to 500 people on :Who Is Responsible?' %
He said he spoke for Saco alone and not
for the press of New England, and that dur
ing the past two weeks he had received moth
ing but words of warmest praise from the
business men of Saco for the address and
for the stand he had taken in regard to en-
forcing the laws. He said the responsible
ity for the enforcement of the laws rested
on the city and county officials.
The speaker asserted that in Biddeford
and Saco there are between 100 and 200 sa-
loon and gambling dens and that their exist
ence is the cause of the dull times complain
ed of by the merchants.

The Anti-Canteen Law.

Should the anti-canteen law pass con-
gress and become fixture, many questions
will have to be considered at the soldiers
home in. our own State. There are hun
dreds of veterans there who drink their
beer daily. Does anybody suppose they
will stop this drinking by the passing of
this law? If there are any who think so,
their ignorance is to be pitied. Should the
sale of beer be stopped at home it will only
cause the veterans to buy elsewhere. For
buy it they will and many may be turned to
buying something stronger 1t may be the
passing of this law will be a great boon to
the rumsellers of Kennebec county They
are quite handy to the home, and some one
will sell liquor to the veterans. Another

SENATOR SCOTT STAYS IN.
COMMITTEE REPORTS IN HIS IA
yoR IN CONTEST PROCEEDING.
Declares the state senate the Only
Judge of the Qualifications of Its
Own Members-There Is Nothing
10 Warrant yitiatIon of Action.

WASHINGTON. March Ex-senator Nc
Comas, from the senat committee on
privileges and elections, today presented
the report Of that committee on the mat
ter Of the protest against the continuance
OF Hon. N. b. Scott, OF West Virginia, ia
his seat as a senator from that state. The
report IL eoncurred in by all the members
Of the committee except senator Pettus,
and It recommends the adoption OF the
following resolution:
Resolved. That Nathan b. Scott has
been duly elected as a senator from the
state Of West Virginia FOR the term Of
SIX years commencing on the 4th Of
March, 1893. and that he is entitled to a
seat in the senate as such.
The committee discussed all the obiec-
tfons Of the protestants, but the greater
part OF the report is devoted 10 the charg-
g that the two hold-over senators,
Messrs. G~etzendanner and Pearson. voted
Tor Mr. Scott while they held commissions
In the volunteer army, and that the agree
ment whereby contests in the legislature
were suspended, while a Joint assembly
FOR the election OF n senator was held, was
void as against public policy"
The nrst of these points IL dismissed
upon The ground that the state senate
passed favorah.y upon the qualifications
as members of the two soldier senators.
On this point the committee says:
The senate of West Virginia is the only
tribunal which could either hear or de-
termtne lawfully these objections TO the
qualifications of senators Getzendanner
and Pearson. IT'S judgment in their favor
IS hnaL The senate Of the United States
has no authority to originate, hear or do
termine any objections 10 the qualinca-
tons OF those who acted and voted as
members Of the senate of the state"
on the point raised as to the joint as
sembly, the committee says:
IT maybe hat wrong and injustice to
members and contestants was done and
intended 70 De done, upon one side or the
other. or on both sides. There is no evil
