deserve one.

to properly take care of the weeds
which infest the highways, and that is
to put the surface Of the sides Of the
road in such shape that mower may
be used upon them, running the ma

soon be exterminated and nice blue

A PERFECT PLANK.

A unique curiosity in this city is a phenomenal plank of redwood cut from one of the famous California giant trees, with dimensions two inches thick, six feet wide and seventeen feet long. The most interesting feature connected with this is it's immense size and abso- lute perfectness a combination eXcep- tiOnally rare in ,h5 wood world.
 While there have been. perhaps. @s large pieces of redwood as this one ex- hibited, it is said that they Were n5t without some imp rfections either la tent or patent, CT else were made up Of sectional pieces to represent one. This is probably without exception the big gest perfect, solid plank in the world. T. is the property Cf MT. Charles Her bert Carr of this city.
 This piece of wood contains exactly 2O4 square feet. board measure. and weighs 9l0 pounds II is a pleasing sigh; to stand beside the plank and ob- rve the strange. watery effect pro duced by the grain of the wood aeains- its pinllish red background. for such is the color of re3wood.-Eew York Her aid.

disorder. Dishonesty and Dishonor. .

The blow delivered the, Democracy
by Governor Roosevelt in his great
speech at st. Paul went home with
telling force. 1t was the blunt truth
and it cannot be lodged, and its effect
is shown by the writing and snarling
that it has evoked. In one telling
sentence Governor Roosevelt ar
raigned the Kansas City platform in a
manner that will not be forgotten. He
said:
Study the Kansas City platform and
you cannot help realizing that their
policy is the policy of infamy, that
their triumph would mean misery SO
widespread that it is almost unthink-
able, and a disgrace so lasting that
more than a generation would have to
pass before it could be wiped out.
They stand for lawlessness and dis
order, for dishonesty and dishonor, for
license and disaster at home and
cowardly shrinking from duty abroad
That isn't a pleasant characterize
ton for the Democrats of 1900. but So
long as tney Stanu on the NaiSdS lily
platform, which embodies every plank
of the Chicago platform. it is true in
every particular. If the plank de-
nOuncing government by injunction
doesn't stand for lawlessness and dis
order, then what does? If the fraud of
free silver is not dishonesty, then there
is nothing dishonest in the world. If
the proposed surrender to the Agun-
honor never faced a nation. The
phrase, disorder, dishonesty and dis
Populistic Democracy of 1900, and it
will stick.

Since misery Is ever fond of COM
pany, it will be mo small consolation
to the Maine Democracy to know that
among the granite hills, beyond our
western boundary line, the Democrats
are also lost in the fog. Their state
convention, this week, is described in
the press dispatches as having 1.-The
smallest attendance of delegates
ldeewn ja the 1history of the party"
Until the surrender to Populism in 1896
drove him out, the New Hampshire
Democracy : had one conspicuously
strong man. Hem Frank Jones. The
substantial Democratic business men
and many of the wage earners have
followed. I'm into the Republican
ranks. ahp the shrunken size Of the
stffce formidable New HAMPSHIRE. De-
mocracy is one of the pathetic features
of the campaign. New Hampshire is
no longer close state, fighting
State; it is as safely and soiidly Re
publican as the noble old states that
stand to the east and the west of it.
A comic feature of the gathering Of
the remnants of the New Hampshire
Democracy was the characteristic in
consistency of it's conduct. For in
stance, the delegates denounced mill
tarism" and nominated Il former naval
officer and cOmrade of Dewey, Samp-
son, Schley and Remey for Governor.
They deprecated the creation of a
great standing army" and yet uttered
an indignant protest against 'the ces-
sion Of an inch of American territory
to any foreign Power" But then. no.
body expects consistency of the Bryan
lied Democracy. 1t is an impossibility
for it to know its own mind in New
Hampshire, any more than in Maine.

The Fourteenth Atlantic Cable.

With the completion of the cable be-

which work has just begun, there will
be IA cables extending under the At
There is more than ordinary interest in
the new cable for it is the first one
to afford direct communication with
Germany and also to the Azores, the
latter being an important consdera-
ton in shipping circles. The great
value of the cable will be in stimulat-
ing trade relations between this coun-
try and Germany, for it has often been
shown in the past that whatever cables
have been constructed they have
proved a decided stimulus to trade.
The volume Il this trade is at present
enormous and there is every reason to
expect a steady increase. It's effect in
