THE TARIFF.

There is general acquiescence in our pres
ent tariff system as a national policy. The
first requisite to our prosperity is the con-
tinuity and stability of this economic pol
lev. Nothing could be more unwise than
to disturb the business interests of the
country by any general tariff change at this
time Yet it is not only possible, but emf
mently desrable;, to combine with the

Our fishing party returned from Eliots
vile Monday night. We are glad to say
that the boys are entirely free from the
habit of exaggeration so common in re-

bear the stamp of absolute truthfulness. A
residence in Brooks always does that for
anybody. We learn that, contrary to the
general opinion, there are no mo squit0s OF
black flies there, but it is necessary to keep
a smudge going nights to keep warm. The
weather is deli htfully cool and agreeable
indeed, the only fault that can be found
with the climate is that it is too bracing in
the afternoon. After weeks diet limited
to Dacotah reds, square tail trout and pond
water none of the party show any signs Of
malaria. The measurements Of the fish
were all made with the naked eye, unassist
ed by glasses, and are guaranteed exact.

An injunction issued by a Connecticut
court last week has attracted a good
deal of attention as it restraints 400
strikers in every conceivable manner.
The machinists of the Farrell foundry
and machine company left their employ
May 10Th and the company has now
obtained an injunction which restraints
the striking machinists and roll turner's
from interfering with the men taking
their places and even employing pickets
1t also attaches all property owned by
them in the sum of $40, 900 each to COM
pei them to obey the courts mandate
Connecticut attorneys consider the in
junction remarkable. The labor unions
involved are Ansonia and Alert lodges,
l. a. NJ. The carpenters and joiners'
union, not being incorporated, could
not be reached through the law. There
fore the members individually. and sym
pathiZers known to have taken part in
labor demonstrations, are named. They
are 149 in all. A dispatch from Derby,
Conn.,, to the Boston Globe gives the
following additional particulars:
Briefly the injunction restraints them
under penalty of $4,000 from committing
acts calculated to cause any workman
to leave the foundry's employ; from
bOycOtting the company, or from any
way interfering with persons dealing
with the company; from lettering near
the foundry; from making loud and
bOiSterouS noises in its vicinity; from
stationing pickets; from preventing
free access and egress; from disturbing
in any way the operation OF the works;
from every conceivable act tending to
injure the company.
A peculiar feature is that should any
person named disobey the injunction,
through the influence of those named,
the latter's property can be claimed for
damages.
OF the 70 homes attached, nearly all
have been obtained only after long
years of labor and thrift in the Farrell
shops. The handsomest house belongs
to Bella Whiting. 1t cost So, 600.
Recreation park, Ansonia's chief
pleasure resort, was about to be sold by
Jason Wright to syndicate which plan
ned cycle racing, vaudeville, dancing,
etc. The injunction prevents the sale,
and the park will remain closed all
| summer.
James Kelley had just bought 20
acres of land on the front to the new
Derby & New Haven trolley line. This
was to be cut into building lots, sub
urb laid out, and eventually incorpor-
ated with the city of Derby. Not a lot
can now be sold.
P. E. Carmody's confectionery and
grocery store, which has been in the
market, cannot now change hands.
| Nearly all the homes attached are
pretty cottages. The act of one man
may subject them all to seizure by the
sheriff.
1t is said the foundry will now i'm.
port full force of non-uniOn men. II

datiOns for 100.

A Rockland business man, who has
made the subject somewhat of study,
says the Bay Point being closed this
summer means at least 5000 a day less
in the shape of cash purchases in Rock
land. Figuring $500 a week there
will be about $4,000 less in circulation
at the end of the season than for pre-
vious summers. With some discount
the above figures might represent Bel
fast's loss in not having such hotel as
the Crosby Inn to accommodate summer
visitors. When the Inn was burned
some of our retail stores noticed a
marked decrease in their cash sales
from previous seasons.

A shower of frogs is occasionally re-
ported, and Bath, New York, had one
July 10Th, when street in the village
was almost covered with frogs imme-
diately after heavy shower. Some of
them were scarcely half an inch long,
but all were lively There were so many
of. the frogs in the roadway that bicy-
clists found riding difficult. Prof. Rob
erts of Cornell, who was asked for an
explanation oil the phenomenon, said
that it is generally accepted now by the
scientific world that frog spawn could
be carried up in the atmosphere, hatch.
ed out in the clouds, and that shower
of frogs would result.

FRED A. JOHNSON, Masonic Temple
Bangor Wharves Deserted.

BANGOR, July 20. The past two weeks
has been the dullest time on record in
any shipping season at the port Of Ban
gor and hundreds of men and many
vessels are idle. The spruce mills are
all shut down except one, the old log
supply having been exhausted and the
new logs not having arrived on account
of delay to the drives. In the past nine
days there have been but Is arrivals at
this port of sailing vessels of fair size,
while usually at this time of the year
that number arrives in a single day.
There is no lumber for the coasters to
carry away and many of the vessels
have gone into the stone trade and
other lines of business. Even when new
logs come in, which will be within a
week, the manufacturers are not likely,
except in one or two instances, to start
the mills because the market is not in
condition to stand any largely increased
supply of produce, prices being barely
maintained at fair level with the pres
ent light supply. Some Of the mills will
start in August, but the outlook is of
the continued dull times until the
usual fall activity in the lumber trade.
The wharves OF Bangor are almost de-
serted.

Those who imagined that William J.
Bryan would be discouraged by the re-
verse which his cause received in the
Ohio convention were astray. Immedi-
ately after the convention he said in St.
Louis, Il do not object to having it dis
tinctly understood that l intend to fight
to the bitter end every effort to force the
abandonment of the Chicago and Kan
sas City platforms. He has just sent
out warning from Nebraska to the re-
organizers of the Democratic party
that 'the money question is not yet out
of politics. Every session of Congress
will have to deal with it," and he has de-
clared that "the Democratic party can
not be made plutocratic party" He
adds that there was time under the
Cleveland regime when the party lead
ers used general and ambiguous phrases
to deceive the voters, but that scheme
can not be worked again.

The Maine Lobster Fisheries.

George Moore, from Washington, D. c..
U. S. Fish Statistician was at New Harbor
for two days last week, the guest of Warden
Hanna. His business has been to secure
full and complete statistics of the lobster
fisheries on the coast of Maine, taking the
statistics of each county, the number OF
men employed and their names, number of
boats and their value and names, number Of
traps used by each man, their value and
the number of cars, with the full number OF
Holsters caught for the year, gross and per
man. The lobster fisheries on the coast OF
Maine have become of such vast importance
that the department at Washington has de
cided to do all it can in their interests.

Charles A. Town OF Minnesota,
silver Republican and Populist, has
"struck lie" in Texas and is out of
politics. He says the free silver ques-
ton is absolutely dead in the west, and
thinks it will not be mentioned in the
next Democratic platform. He is also
inclined to think that David B. Hill
will be nominated by the Democrats on
an extremely reactionary from Bryan
ism platform, and that Mr. Bryan will
lead third party ''in support of the
issues to which he is still loyal" This
prophecy gives the Boston Herald the
cold shivers: and it exclaims. "what
hope is there for the Democratic
party in this prospect" 1t would
certainly put the Democrats in a
hard position, as neither candidate
would represent the better element of
the Democratic party, while Bryan has
demonstrated his untitness for the posi-
ton for which he has twice been can
didate.

chusetts is the Society for the Protec-

the Boston Herald we'll says, "that
should appeal to all lovers of nature" "
Many of our most cherished wild flow
ers and native plants are becoming very
rare, and are in danger of extermina-
ton. Not only are the flowers wanton-
ly plucked and thrown down to fade,
but the plants themselves are torn up
by the roots. This is particularly true
of the trailing arbutus, or Mayfower,
which has been eradicated from various
regions where it once abounded and is
becoming scarcer in others. Success to
the new society.
