A Terrific Tornado.

An appalling disaster occurred on the
Texas coast, which appeared to be CEN
trail at Galveston, the great seaport of
that State, saturday last
six hundred to one Thousand persons
killed, city almost in ruins, the whaif
front entirely gone, every ocean steamer
stranded, and death and destruction on
every hand, with the money loss that
cannot be estimated now, is, SO far as
can be learned at this hour, the result
of the appalling calamity that has be
fallen Galveston. The great storm has
left her helpless, and her stricken peo-
pie are compelled to appeal to the out
side world for aid. The estimates of
loss of life vary between the figures
given. but an accurate count OF the
dead is impossible now, and the real
mum Der killed in the storm will prOba-
bly, never be known. No one attempts
to estimate the damage to business and
residence property. The tine steamer
Alamo lies upon the top of the Mallory
wharf, and big English cotton laden
steamer was driven to Texas ity
Other vessels are around in different
pdTt5 VI tuC ooJ1 oo'hO h"Po'ooSiJ
wrecked. The tug Louise is under
water at Bed Fish. Two of the crew
were drowned, the remainder escaping
in life boats.
At Texas ity the wharves are des-
troyed and the water front for mile is
Uttered with ruins, much of the debris
having been blown there from Calves
ton. At Texas City three lives were
ha rni tranR 10 wal pd
and the only exit was by foot and con-
veyance to La Marque on the Interna
tional and Great Northern Railroad
The storm commenced raging between
8 and 10 o'clock saturday morning and
by noon the waters from the gulf had
inundated the island rs far inland as
Twelfth street. From here the waters
gradually encroached farther inland,
rising about fifteen inches an hour . AT
D. M there was SO inches of water in
the Hobbies of the fremont hotel and
the highest point in the city
Governor Sayers appealed to President
Mckinley for aid This appeal was met
with prompt response from the Presi-
dent, who stated that ten thousand tents
and 5000 rations had been ordered to
Galveston Gov. Sayers also addressed
an appeal to each municipality in the
State asking for prompt assistance in
caring for the sufferers. kilograms of
inquiry and sympathy have been pour
ing in throughout day and night from
every state in the union and in almost
every instance substantial relief has
been offered, Reports from the interior
confirm the loss of life and destruction
of property reported.
The Associated Press state that "a
conservative estimate of the loss of
life is that it will reach 5000; at least
5000 families are shelterless and wholly
destitute The entire remainder of the
population is suffering in greater or less
degree. Not a single church, school or
charitable institution, of which Calves
ton had so many, is left intact. Not a
building escaped damage and half the
whole number were entirely obliterated.

The home of Mr.. and Mrs. E. l..
Walker, Turner Ave, was the scene of
a pretty home wedding the morning of

land. The ceremony was performed by
Rev. H. w. Kimball la the presence of
relatives and near friends.
To the strains of the wedding march,
played by Mrs. W. G. Pencil, the
wedding party entered the room which
had been tastefully decorated with ferns
and flowers. The full episcopal cere-
mony was used. Following the cere-
mony wedding breakfast was served
by caterer Fairbrother.
The bride is one of our best known
young ladies, graduate of the Skowhe-
gan high school, class of '95, and for
several years she has been stenographer

The Maine Election.

The Maine election OF Monday last,
resulted In the choice of John F.
Hill, tie Republican nominee for gov
ernor, by about $4,000 plurality and
nearly 10000 majority.
The Lewiston journal makes the
following statement.
The vote for 476 towns-all the State
save SO towns and plantations, which in
1898, cast lilo Republican and 675
Democratic votes-last Monday was as
follows:
Hill. 72,4l2; Lord, 39,319; Rogers,
3037; Lermond 44S; Hills majority
29,6Os; Hill plurality 1908.
In 1898, the same towns voted as fol.
lows: Powers, 52.9S8; Lord, 27.S10:
Ladd, 2272; Gerry 63s; Lermond, 313;
Powers majority, 2l,955; Powers plu.
rality, 25,l7s,
Republican congressman have been
elected in each Of the four districts by
msorities that aggregate about the same
as that given for Hill for governor. Hon.
Edwin C. Burleigh in this district was
elected by larger majority than ever
before.
Every county of the State, with one
exception, has given good majority on
the right side except Knox county in
which Democrats prevailed, electing
Lindley Murray Staples, E,q., of Wash.
ington, senator, and most of the county
officers. This gives one member of the
State senate to the opposition. The
House is strongly Republican AS usual
1t now appears that Democrats will
have but Is members of that body.
The election of s. F. Pearson, Prohib'-
zionist, as sheriff of Cumberland county
was surprise to Republicans and Dem
ocrats and probably to the winning
party. 1t was remonstrance againsi
the disregard for and lax enforcement
Of law, and, protest against the fee sys
TEN. There are lots of people in Cum
berland county who want to see $
change in this regard and they are by NJ
means confined to that county.
The election in Maine is an emphatic
endorsement of President Mckinley
administration. 1t was fought on ns
tional issues and is sterling victory fo
Republican principles.

Imperialism Is the favorite term of the
CAMPAIGN with our Democratic orators.
,0f course It Is a false issue raised for
political purposes. There is no such
thing as Imperialism as applied TO our
form of government. without all i'm
peral government there can be no i'm
perlalism. The term applies to Russia
0rGermany or China where there are
superors or expresses and to other
nations where the rule is by hereditary
nonarchs, but 1t cannot be made to
apply to Republican form of govern
nent where the people choose their
rulers and lawmakers. Therefore Inn
perialsm is not an issue, the term is a
nlsnomer. What our Democratic friends
sre butting their heads against is ex-
pansion. 1t does not have such an
ouinous sound as the word imperialism
nod Is not so good scare-word, yet 1t Is
nentty. There has been and Is expan-
''on in our country and people naturally
nave different opinions 10 regard to the
right and policy Of the expansion OF
errltory that has taken place during the
lour years past. This is Legitimate
issue but Imperialism is no real issue.
