Any Day Will Do.

The Democratic State Central
Committee made call for Primaries
to be held in the different counties
on Saturday the 25th of August for
purpose of electing delegates to the
State Convention. In all other coun-
ties in the State with the exception
of Lincoln notices have been given
in accordance with the call and Pri-
maries are to be held on the day de-
signated, and in such Counties
where there will be no Primaries
held the County Central Committee
will appoint on that day. Here in
Lincoln, the Democrats have taken
time by the force lock, have already
met an appointed the Delegates, sell
Getting a day of their own. No doubt
they want tolbe different. and such
small matters as this will not bother
them at all. What would be the
consequence if Primaries were held
in some of the precincts and dele
gates elected under the call by the
State Central Committee. We doubt
if the appointed ones would be
seated.

SALT LAKE AND
LOS ANGELES ROAD.

A special to the Salt Lake Tribune
from Los Angeles says;
Los Angeles, Cal, Aug 20-Tht
Times will say tomorrow that foi
several days past various rumors
have filled the air that the Terminal
railroad has been sold. The arrival
here last week of President Leighton
caused these rumors to fly in focks.
The story that the road had been
sold to the Southern Pacific quickly
evaporated. The latest and most
ponderable report is that the Ter
minal has been bought by W. A.
Clark, the Montana ex-senator and
mining king, and one of the richest
men in the world, who proposes to
head the construction of new line
across the continent.
Perhaps it is best to state at the
out set that I. e. Gibbon, vice pre-
sident of the road, asserts positively
that the sale has been made. Tech
nically this deal must be true, or
Gibbon would not make it. But
still rumors lift their voices higher
and more frequently in railroad
offices, and their sources are of such
high responsibility that is impossible
to ignore them.
The story is that Clark has en-
tered into an agreement to buy tue
whole Terminal property, and that
he has put up the matter of quarter
of million dollars to bind the bar
gain; that it will take two or three
weeks to close the deal, and that by
that time all the world will know
the whole story of the transaction.
If that were all it would not be of
great significance. But other chapters
go on to recite that it means, at a
very early day. the beginning of work
on the long-talked-of Los Angeles
& Salt Lake railroad, long link in
new and Independent transcon-
k,Oaoko1 I,oo hotwoo, +bn E,eL onl
the West. That is what the Terminal
was intended to be. The farsighted
and courageous men who put their
money into the venture put it there
with clear conception of what it
value would some day be as terminal
facilities for what was sure to come
sooner or later--a road from Salt
Lake to Los Angeles. The enter
ance of Clark into this gigantic en-
terprise has not been taken with
out careful consideration. The route
is all laid out on paper. The plough
share is in shape for vigorous work
at no distant day. Clark is about
the only man in the country who has
capital enough of his own, and suffi-
GENTLY free from entanglements with
other railroads, to be able to take
hold of this vast undertaking. If,
as is believed by many railroad
people there is solid foundation be-
meath these rumors, this means
great spirit for Los Angeles. When
the road is down it means a COM
peting route to the East--the short
est, easiest, most comfortable from
a climatic point of view, of all the
lines. 1t means the opening of 500
miles of territory rich in mineral
and agricultural possibilities. 1t
will provide constant, growing
market and will bring to tidewater
the coal and iron ores of southern
Utah and Nevada, and insure the
building of great iron industries
here.

The Waldo County W. c. T. Unions.

l lately visited the unions in the northern
part of the county. Twenty-Five miles
brought me to West Troy, where the meet
ing was held with one of Troy's teachers.
Nearly every member was present, one COM
ing four miles from the next town. One
new member was received.
The next day at North Troy l was the
guest of our county treasurer, and made as
many calls as the weather allowed. Re-
turning to Freedom, with a brief call at
Unity, found a room full of ladies waiting
for me. This Union has doubled its mem
bership since it was organized in June, and
has a dozen or more honoraries.
The various unions of Waldo county are
doing various things, and all are holding on.
We have gained twelve or fifteen members
since the State convention, and hope Maine
will have a part in Benefit Night at the
National convention in Washington, Dec
81.
Any one can take advantage of the low

High School Lecture Course.

The teachers of the Belfast High school
are planning for a course of lectures to be
given this winter for the benefit of the
school library, art works, etc. An effort
has been made to secure variety and excel
lence in the lectures themselves and to
bring the colleges to the notice of our city
and school, by securing as lecturers men,
who, in each of our Maine colleges, are au-
thorities upon the subjects of which they
treat. That we are enabled to secure such
men, is subject for congratulation; and
we trust that due appreciation may be
shown by a hearty response to the young
people who will soon canvass the town.
The lectures will be given either in the
Opera House, or in Memorial Hall, as the
result of the canvass may warrant. Course
tickets, one dollar single ticket, twenty-five
cents. We hope the following program
may appeal to many:
