Funeral Of Rev. +. w. Flood.

The funeral OF Rev. Fred w. Flood Was
held at the home OF his parents last
Thursday afternoon. The large attend
ance and the beautiful floral tributes told
OF the esteem in which the deceased was
held.
President Hyde, of Bowdoin college,
officiated, assisted by Fred E. Hartshorn,
of New Haven, a former friend and
neigh bor. MIR. Hartshorn, who had
known the deceased from childhood,
spoke words OF comfort, paying a splen-
did tribute to his character and worth.
President Hyde's remarks were hig hly
eulogistic.
The whole ceremony was very impress
sive and grand testimonial to the young
man, "whose best portion OF life was his
little, nameless, aforementioned acts of
kindness and love-" Miss Mabel Mona
CHAN sang most sweetly "Come unto
Him., from Handel's Messiah.
The pallbearers were Rev. Albert j.
Lord, Rev. Henry w. Conley, Hoyt A..
Moore and Benjamin B. Whitcomb. In
terment was In the family cemetery.

The "Imperialism" Rugaboo.

''Imperialism," says Secretary OF
Agriculture Wilson, lis a new word
added to the vocabulary Of our peo-
pie since the time when Aguinaldo
had arranged to cut the Threats OF
every white person in Manila and the
American soldiers and officers pre-
vented it, punished the Filipinos and
drove them back to the hills. A man
who proclaimed himself dictator,
killed or spared as he saw fit, had his
enemies murdered when he pleased
that is an imperialist."
We may form an idea of what i'm
perialism is by what is now going on
in China. The Empress is an imperi-
alist; Prince Tuan is an imperialist.
They do what they please without
constitutional limitations. They only
waste their breath who imagine that
our people are so ignorant that they
cannot understand the difference be-
tween republican government as we
have it and imperialism" as we don't
have it. The intelligent voters of the

The Hon. George Fred Williams
will begin his stamping excursion in
Vermont this week, and next week he
will strive to fire the Pine Tree heart.
The national democratic committee
has determined to make as lively n
canvass as it can in Vermont and
Maine. II a good many republican
voters of those September states are
lazy enough to stay away from the
polls, the democratic managers will
point joyously to the thinned republi-
can pluralities and yell: Look at
Vermont, Look at Maine! Old re-
publican states repudiate the policy
of despotism. The administration re-
buked by its friends, Our country
rises for Bryan" and so on. Grave
republican losses in Vermont and
Maine might have an unfortunate or
disastrous effect upon the republican
campaign in some OF the western
states and elsewhere. AT any rate
they would hearten the democrats
and bear the stock market. But the
republicans of Vermont and Maine
know what their duty TO the country
and to the republican party is, and We
are confident that they will do it,

You know This Man.

Among interviews issued recently
from national republican headquar-
tiers was one in which people of this
section will be particularly interested.
The man interviewed was William
keneiick, of Kansas City, the railroad
contractor who built the western sec
ton OF The Washington County rail-
road, from Washington Junction to
Machias.
All who came in contact with Mr..
kenefick during his stay here were
impressed by his business perception
as much as by his genial personality.
With such, any statement emanating
from MIR. Kenefick will have great
weight. This is what he says:
"My business depends entirely upon pros
p.rity. Before can get any rusiness we mus,

"After a great wave of advancing

others grew faint hearted and declared
the ministers in Picking were dead,
the United States persisted in believ-
ing they were alive, and redoubled its
efforts for their relief. When others
hesitated at the threat of Ii Hung
Chang that the march of the allies on
Picking would sound the doom of the
ministers, the United States refused
to temporize, and the legations were
saved.
1t has been, we repeat, grand
triumph for American diplomacy.
Ellsworth American. [volume] (Ellsworth, Me.) 1855-current, 1900-08-22

Events in China during the past
week have been OF a most important
and most satisfactory nature. The
relief of the ministers at Picking ter
inmates the first period of the cam
paign. The next step is yet to be de-
cided upon-it may be military; it
probably will be diplomatic. Picking
is in possession of the allies, the en-
peror and empress are fugitives, and
Ii Hung Chang is suing for peace.
This government has refused to en-
terrain the proposition for an inter-
national peace commission, for the
reason that, with the emperor and
empress in hiding, there is no evil
of China with which to treat or which
would be responsible for terms made.
Evidence of Chinese duplicity accu-
mulates. The repeated assertions of
Ii Hung Chang that the ministers
were being protected by the imperial
troops; again that they were held as
hostages, and still again that they had
left Picking with a Chinese escort,
have all been proven to be mere sub
terfuges to prevent or delay the adj
vance of the allies on Picking. and thus
accomplish the destruction of the le-
cations. The relief column found the
legations still on the defensive against
the imperial troops which had been
represented as protecting them. The
very night before the allies entered
She city desperate attack was made
on the legations.
And in the face of these disclosures
of his hideous deceit, Earl Ii smiles
blandly, and asks the foreign powers
20 cease hostilities.
The success of the campaign SO far
is more than vindication of this gov
ernment's policy in China-it is
triumph. The United States assumed
the initiative in defining the policy to
be pursued, which policy was imme-
diately adopted by the Powers. When

recently was DR.. Sanger, Of Manila,
who has practiced medicine there for
the past eleven years, and is thereto, e
intimate with the people and the
conditions throughout the Philippine
archipelago. He declared that the
present disorders in the island are
kept up by guerilla bands of one or
two tribes, and that hopes OF republi-

all that sustain them. DIR. Sanger de-
clared that the majority of the inhab-

France Againin
Danger Of Disturbance

New York, Nov. 1.-The outlook for
social and political disturbances in
france is becoming graver every day,
says Paris dispatch to the Times.
In the North 100000 miners are on
strike and the recent socialistic talk
from members of the Government
seems to have encouraged violent an
revolutionary spirit.
Moreover, the Catholics are becoming
very bitter at the declared intention Of
the Government to close official careers
to all who have been educated in reii-
gious institutions. The Catholic press
is very bitter, and the clergy are max
ing common cause with the other enc
mics Of the Government. Only the fact
that the Government controls the
church funds prevents the clergy ex-
pressing their opinion vigorously on
the matter.

FRENCH CABINET CRISIS.

New York, Oct. 30.-A dispatch to the
Times from Paris says: The greatest
part of the French press Is very hos
tile in its criticisms OF Premier Wal
deck-Rousseau's speech at Toulouse
yesterday. 1t is regarded as too radical
and socialistic in tendency. Papers
like lie Temps and lie Figaro, which
represent the great body OF moderate
opinion, are especially hostile, and 1t Is
evident that the Premier has against
him many who have hitherto supported
him. The fall of the present Govern
ment is anticipated in a week or two,
and the close Of the exposition seems 10
indicate a period Of considerable poll
teal unrest. Lively times are anti
cipated when the chambers open on
November 9th. The universal feeling
is that the Government will not last
long.

Mr.. McAllister started the mill aboIt
six years ago for the benefit Of Walter.
II was his desire to give his son a
chance to succeed In business and build
up a first class plant. Walter was
manager an dalthough the firm was
known as James McAllister & Co., he
was the head at the mill. About six y
persons were employed. Business was
good until two weeks ago, or until Wal
ter was arrested on the charge of mr--
der The father had the spools all run

AGREEMENT PROGRESS
ACCEPTANCE HAS NOT
BEN GENERAL YET
France and United States Find Stun
bling Block TO Prompt ActlOn---
Japan's Acceptance is
Unconditional.

Washington. Nov. The align
German agreement is now practically
completed. Russia being the only gov
eminent remaining to be heard from.
Aside from Italy and Austria, whose
adherence to the agreement was ca
pected owing to their relations wi'h
Germany, Japan is the only one of the
powers who has given unconditional
assent to the agreement. As the mater
now stands, five Of the powers are unit
ed in all the terms Of the agreement.
viz: Great Britain, Germany, Italy,
Austria and Japan. Two Of the pow
ers. the United States and France. ac-
cept the clauses relating to the open
door and the territorial integrity OF
China but withhold action on the third
clause relating to future procedure In
case any power seizes territory. The
course OF Russia is not known so far
as officials here are advised, as neither
the State Department nor the Russian
Embassy has received information Of
any Russian answer. II has been their
opinion that the Russian response
would be similar to that Of the United
States and France, although this view
has been somewhat shaken by the per-
sistent reports from Berlin that Rus
STA would concur with the agreement.
The effect OF the exchange has been
in bringing five OF the powers to IN
agreement to respect the open door"
and the integrity OF China, and to con-
suit among themselves as to future
course In case any Of the other powers
sought to take Chinese territory. These
other powers" as the negotiations
have now shaped, are the United States
France and probably Russia. As to the
United States, there is no possibility Of
an initiative in taking territory so that
terms Of the third clause would appeal
to France and Russia and would bring
about concurrent action of the five
powers in case either of these sought to
extend their domain in China.
