Spencer Wilkinson on Col. Broad

LONDON, April 4.-Spencer Wilkinson
discussing the attack on Col. Broad
woods party, in the Morning Post, says:
"The attack was well planned and well
executed. Col Broadwood however,
skillfully evaded the stroke aimed at him.
Possibly Lord Aoberts has retired his
infantry, with a view of encouraging
the Beers to advance and continue the
attack. Probably nothing would suit him
better than that they should attempt to
move toward the railway, or to attack
in the direction of Bloemfontein. He Is
Possibly Lord Roberts has retired his
to be In readiness for a renewal of the
general advance. and he will not be
drawn away. II the Beers venture too
far south they will receive punishment. +"

THURSDAY NIGHTS RALLY.
Why Augusia's Citizens Should Attend The
Meeting En- Masse.

The interest awakened by the recent
political meetings in this city makes it
certain that Thursday nights rally at
City hall will have an extra large at
tendance. In the long list of speakers
assigned to Maine none are more In
touch with the policy Of the admins
tratiun than Postmaster General
Smith. who is TO address the meeting.
and, who. besides being one Of the mos
brilliant editors ana orators in thc
country, is one Of the most progrcs-
sive business statesmen in active po-
litical life.
Under the peculiar position President
Mckinley is in as a candidate for re-
election, he cannot with good taste
speak publicly. as he did. four years
ago. on every occasion; but relies on
his friends. Recognizing in the post
master general the accomplished ora
tor Of the highest political judgment,
he has sent him on many occasions u
voice the sentiments Of the admins
tration On public questions. In the
present assignment tp Maine, Genera
Smith will speak Of the living Ameri-
can history which President Mckinley
and his cabinet are making every day
NJ person could speak on this subject
with more authority ur better knUwl-
edge than himself
While these facts alone would insure
him a large audience, there is another
thing which should cause Augusta peo-
ple in particular to BE- eager to wclcom"
him. In his high official position n
has been able to favor this city through
the postal service here and the ann
vancemcnt of its employees. ana hc ha+
shown every willingness to assist in
attaining an improved public building.
In these things he has proven Of ma
torial aid 10 our city ana il is to ho
hoped he VIII have a rousing reception.
ana that our citizens will show that
they appreciate his efforts,
Let cvcrynn" turn out and hear him

STATE ROUSE.
Changes Observed in The Methods Of Cor
Quoting Lumbernu Business.

I'll" state assessors, during thcir
trips through different parts Of the
State. have discovered that the meth
ods NJ numbering arc gradually chang
ing ail through Maine. Formerly all
most amy oIo who had few dollars
could hrrcmc an operator Now it Is
only tEc person with great capital at
his disposal or a company that can du
the work.
This is du" simply to the change Of
conditions Formerly, before there
was such z demand for lumber. the
greater part uf the timber WAS cut Nv
the shores If the streams ana then
driven down 10 the mills or places
where 1t was wanted. As the trees be
side the streams began To grow less
in number owing to the operations WI
the lumhcrmcn, it became necessary ~
20 farther back into the woods. ~
the timber became cut away, it was
found that the operators could unt
work tn advantage where il was ncr-
essary for them to work more than
seven miles from stream or lake on
which the logs could be- driven. Th,u
il became necessary fur the smaller ui-
orators IL stop their work
The man Of property. however. found
that he could by building dams ana
railroads. get his timber out to advau-
taEo. even though il were located some
distance from a stream. 1t took capt.
tai to DO this ana the smaller opcvd-
tors found it necessary e. either COM
hinc with other operators of a limited
capital ur else abandon the work
As the result Of tho experience the
smaller streams are being used more
and more and the operators plan ais
much on building dams that shall holl
the water back. III the spring. that il
il may b. used when wanted, as for
any other part Of the work.
In other places where it is not pos
siblr to use streams tn advantage. thy
operators are arranging for building
cheap railroads. that is. roads used
simply for Transporting logs to places
where they may hc shipped to the mar
kctS. This II especially true in Frank-
lin ana oxford counties. ana from ths
talk Of the railroad men there is pros
pcct that this Will Lo, done more AMI
