generally get into fairly comfortable
quarters, but it is a different thing for
schooners, and two have been lost. For
tunately in neither case was there loss
of life. Though there have been cases
where wrecks have resulted fatally on
our shores, they are rare. The schoon-
err Warwick disappeared with all her
crew many years ago. The Dauntless
turned turtle losing all her crew in the
Hawaii channel, and there have been
a few other cases, but as a rule when
any local wreck occurs the crew gets
ashore.

If A. G. NJ. Robertson is able to sub
stantiate his charge that the bailiff act
of the last Legislature was improperly
passed, it will make confusion worse
COMPOUNDED in the courts. 1t would
yitiate all the findings of the grand
juries and of petit juries drawn by the
bailiffs appointed by the Circuit Court
under that act OF course every one
convicted under such circumstances
would have to be set free or retired.
1t really seems as if it is the hardest
thing in the world to hold a criminal
when once he is convicted. At all
events, in former times, the criminal
once convicted had to work out his
sentence. Now he seems to have as
many chances of escaping the conse-
quences of his crime as a cat is said to
have lives. The theory Of escape seems
to be the one the lawyers are devoting
themselves to. Meantime the expense
upon the Territory is very large in
deed. All legal proceedings are expen-
sive to the state. But trying men, and
retrying them adds very largely to this
expense.

Some interesting comparisons of Inc
amounts of money spent on luuof boz
Ieadina countries are contained BOZ a re.
cent publication off the British Board
of Trade aud noted by the London
standard. oud quoted by Budstrects:
Tho United Kingdom leads the quartet
of nations which furnish the largest
returns from liquor taxes The pro-
portion that taxation bears TO the total
collections ifs 36 per cent. as compared
with only % per cent in the United
states and 40 per cent and IS per cent
respectively I'm France and Germany,
n which countries apparently the liz
uor interests are not singled out for
las heavy taxation as they are I'm Great
Britain or the United states.
The United Kingdom is compare
lively small wine consumer almost
as small as the United States, the con-
sumption per head being placed, i'm
fact at .39 Of a gallon, as against .33
of gallon in our own country. on
the other hand, France is the wine
consumer of the first rank as shown
by the fact that 25.4 gallons per head
of population are consumed there. In
Germany the consumption is only Las
per head of population. Wine consump-
ton naturally appears TO be largest in
the wine-producing countries. For in
stance, in Portugal, Spain Italy, Swift
zerland and Austria Hungary the con-
sumption varies from a maximum Of
20 gallons per head of population in
Portugal to as low as gallons per
head i'm Austria Hungary.
In the matter of beer consumption
the United Kingdom easily comes first
in the list Of four countries with 81
gallons per head Of population, follow
ed closely by Germany with 2L5 per
head of population and at a greater
distance by the United States with 1873
gallons per head of population. The
consumption of beer in France is
placed at only So gallons per head,
cheap and abundant wines apparently
leaving only small place for beer in
that country. 1t may be a surprise to
some, however, to learn that Belgium
is easily first in the item of beer con-
sumption with nearly AZ gallons per
head Of population. Some statistics of
consumption in different German states
however, exceed any Of these totals.
In Bavaria, for instance, the total con-
sumption is placed at "a gallons per
head. In all countries the tendency of
late years is apparently to an increase
of beer consumption. This will certain
ly be true of this Territory, for the
consumption of beer must have in
creased considerably since the estab-
lishment of the local brewery, and the
opening out of so many beer saloons
The consumption Of spirits appears
to be the largest in France, 2.O2 gallons
being used, against 1.94 gallons per
head i'm Germany, LIP i'm the United
Kingdom and LOG gallons per head in
the United States.

The Circuit Court has not practiced
much economy in its expenditures.
What the court will do when the appro-
priation is exhausted is not clear. 1t
may take vacation or it may insist
on an extra session. There is never

do.

he had ignored the claims. OF the great
steamboat interests with representatives
in New York city The matter OF send
ing something like $4,000 Spanlards to
Spain came up and the general adVer-
tised for bids for transportation. The
tenders of the different. companies, sub
tives were exactly alike-so much for
officers of a certain rarilz SO much for
other officers and so much for privates-
showing a com binaton and agreement
between the companies The bids which
the general received from Spain were
less than half of those offered by the
New York syndicate and the contracts
were therefore awarded to the Spanish
vessels. That was the turning point in
the assault against the general, because
he would not tOady to the companies
represented in New York and show
them special favorS- The press direct
ed its veno1nous attacks at me because
I defended Gen. Alger.
Il use this as an illustration to show
how powerful is the influence of those
who have resolved on the policy of rule
or ruin This has been my experience
while holding the Office Of governor. Ezv-
cry large interest that I have antagon-
lied during my fight for equal taxation
has been arrayed against me, and the
allies of those interests, the newspapers
OF the state have lost no opportunity to
attempt to draw the minds OF the peo-
pie from the real issue by making per-
sona1 attacks on me and publishing ma
licious and Wilful libels, and to belittle
my efforts and bring me into disrepute
in order that the present system of un-
just, inequitable and Ubiquitous laws
might still remain in force, to the detri-
ment of the great masses of the laboring
classes and farmers and those of small
properties, who are unable to speak and
act for themselves.
Il make the prediction that, unless
those in charge and in whose hands leg
islation is rsposed, change the present
system of inequality, in less than
quarter of a century there will be
bloody revolution in this great country
of ours
At the conclusion of Mr.. Pingree's
message, Governor Bliss message was
read
Governor Bliss in his message urged
economy in all appropriations and sug-
in the interest of economy. On the sub
1ect of taxation, Governor Bliss said:
Believing that the people desire that
all property now paying specific taxes
shall be assessed in like manner with
other property, recommend that the
legislature provide the necessary ma
chinery for the assessment and colIec
ton of taxes on this property upon an
advalorem basis. There should be no
hasty consideration of this question, for
the interests of hundreds of millions Of
property is no slight one.'
Among things the legislature was rec
commended to give its attention to is the
sale Of cigarettes. On this subject Gov
ernOr Bliss said
L advise the most stringent legisIa-
ton possible, in order that the sale of
cigarettes may be discouraged, if not
prohibited

A MAD MOOSE
Invades a Minnesota Town. and Kills
Several Animals.

Cass Lake, Mimi, Jan. 3.--One man
probably fatally injured, three dogs and
two cows killed and several hundred
dollars worth of property destroyed Is
the result of the visit of mad bull
moose to the little town of F'arris, four
miles from here, on New Years day.
The animal, a giant of his tribe, APP
peared on the streets about noon, and
charged directly at little knot of men
standing in front Of the only store of
THE town. 1T WAS seen that the brute
was in a violent temper, SO every one
made rush for safety John Olson, a
settler, failed to escape, however, and
was SO severely trampled by the moose
that he will probably die.
After leaving the man the animal
turned his attention to a lot of dogs at
lacking him, and speedily killed three of
the number, his sharp hoOfS cutting
them almost to pieces.
BY this time several rifles had been
turned upon the animal, and many bull
let's found a lodging place in his body.
This seemed but to increase the anger
of the brute, and he started on a general
raid. Two cows walking along the
street attracted his attention. and he
attacked them, killing them both in
short order. Then he made a rush for
the store building, in which seven or
eight men were taking refuge. and each
fired his rife as rapidly as he could at
the animal Although fearfully wound
ed. the moose managed to break all the
glass in the front windows, batter down
part of the wall, break in the door ana
smash two show cases into bits
BY this time the loss of blood began
to tell upon him, and while trying to
get over the counter behind which the
men had taken refuge he dropped to the
floor, where his throat was cut by Alex.
Pearson, one of the men in the place.
The carcass of the animal weighed al
most 1000 pounds, and in the body were
found 80 bullets, almost any one of
which under ordinary circumstances
would have proved fatal.

WOMEN SEEK FREEDOM.
Organize Club to Advance the So

Binghamton, n. z, Jan. "A Twenti-
eth Century club was formed here today,
emhodying a score Of society girls who
have pledged themselves to advance the
social interests of their sex in every way.
and especially to aid in forming and fol-
lowing the ideas of greater social free
dom among women 1t is held that the
customs Of the last century especially
those of counting were not only foolish.
but peculiarly detrimental to women
Each member OF the club has pledged
herself to seriously propose marriage to
some unmarried eligible man within a
year.
Sections of the bylaws forbid certain
modes Of dress, including the. wearing of
corsets, and the object OF the club is
stated to be not to make the coming
woman more masculine, but to make her
more Womanly. Girls of is or more are
eligible for membership, and one Of the
obligations imposed is a pledge to do q
certain amount Of reading each day, the
subjects to be selected quarterly BY the

Deer lacking with a Tugboat.
IFrom the New York SUM-

From the New York Sun.
So far as is known the first instance
on record of deer being lacked by an
ocean going tugboat happened on the
last day of open time this year on the
shore of Fort Point Cove at the mouth
OF the PenobScOt river. The cove is a
general exchange for shipping bound
UP or out of the river. 1t is here that
the ocean tugs drop their tows for the
river boats to take to Bangor and here
they come for the ice barges ready for
sea. The country in the vicinity of the
cove is sparsely settled and on the west
ern side begins the vast range of for
ests which extend for miles across Han
cock and Washington counties Deer
are plentiful farther back but are rarely
seen near the shore.
It was not for deer that young Jud-
son Perkins loaded up his fatheS's cid
musket with a handful OF slugs and
went down to the shore after school. 1t
was seal upon which Judson had in
tentiOnS- The small river or bay seals
are plentiful in the cove and are a great
pest 20 the fishermen in robbing their
nets and weirS of the choicest of the
catch. A boy is considered to have won
his spurs when he has shot a seal, for
its shyness is remarkable. The crow is
dull in discovering the presence of dam
ger compared with a bay seal. And SO
it happened that Judson was down on
the shore with gun that afternoon
After waiting and watching in vain for
his quarry, he started for home in the
darkness.
he was only a rev steps from the
shore when a big tug shot in by the
point and played her searchlight upon
the fleet Of schooners and barges at
anchor there. Then the big ray search
ed along the shore until It caught judi
son full in the face Turning about to
avoid the binding ray, he looked toward
the woods and saw a sight which rooted
him to the spot for an instant. There
in the path of the big white ray, with
head and antlers above a small bush,
stood the finest buck deer seen in those
parts for years.
The deer seemed fascinated, standing
with cleaning eyebalis and quivering
nostrils. trembling. Judson quickly re
covered his wits raised his gun and
fired. At that moment the light went
ont but at the report, back it came and
flickered back and forth like a dog look
ing for a lost scent. Had the men on
the boat been q little nearer they might
have seen a boy standing over a big
deer and gazing at it as if he could
hardly believe his senses AS soon as
he was assured that the deer was really
dead he ran to the house as fast as his
legs could carry him, but had desperate
work to make the hired man understand
that it was a load for the steers and
drag Judson is probably the only
hunter in Maine who ever shot a deer
with the aid of q 500-ton steel ocean
going tow boat.
