ELLSWORTH.
Dear Sir: Rockland, Maine. is a scacoast
town; hard place for paint. About seventeen
years ago, Farrand. Spear Il Co, Rockland. be.
gan with Devoe. Their first sale was to paint
the Harrington residence. well known there.
Mr.. Farrand says the house appears. from the
street. TO be well painted now, and has never
been reprinted.
We should like TO know more definitely about
job OF paint that has lasted seventeen years
on sea. side house. 1t is the longest time we
have had a report on.
Lead and oil lasts three years-a first-rate job
and nobody says 1t lasts longer. We are con-
tent to say that Devoe lead and zinc lasts twice
as long ;but we know of houses innumerable,
on which our paint has exceeded six years,
Yours truly,
A 20 r. w. DEyoE Il Co.

president thought he was treading on
uncertain ground. As you read them
you cannot help but think Of a long
train Of cars passing slowly over a
somewhat unsafe trcstle or long
bridge. In the main his views are
wise and proper. Cooperation has tax
en- the place of competition. What
are called trusts have come to stay.
Society must regulate, but cannot
destroy them. They have not only
come to stay, hut are capable Of
much good. In our commercial en-
terprises, especially in foreign mar
kets, thoy furnish the compact but
flexible means by which those enter
prisrs can be inaugurated, maintained
and contaminated. Large capital
cannot be otherwise employed TO its
best advantage The evils are pointed
out by the president not with the
vigor ana cloarness which mark GER
tain other portions Of his message.
We cordially are with him that all
corporations ought To be subjected 10
the visitorial power Of the sovereign
which incorporates them. and pei
haps also by the sovereign in whose
territory they undertake TO transact
business. We cordially agree with
him that the public are entitled to
know the truth concerning the prop
erty, assets, conduct and expenditures
of corpoIaticns As we have quite
often said in these columns, the state
ment of the Massachusetts, statesman
tist "public.t5 was the police man CT
the nineteenth century" has in il
much wisdom II proper laws could
be enacted by congress- within the
scope OF federal power and by each Of
the states within tho domain Of state
powers, and those laws could be fair
ly, Justly and impartially admins
tered, by which the affairs of every
could be made public, the
remedies for oyer-oapitalzation and
for other evils growing out of large
should be easily ascer-
tained and readily applied"

The charitable people OF Paducah
will have ample opportunity this year
to help the poo Heretofore the city
has furnished food, fuel and trans
portation to scores Of unfortunates.
but this year there are. no funds, as
there were in other years. The
money has been spent for other pur-
poses. Mayor Lang was always
generous with the destitute, believing
that often il was cheaper to furnish
them food and medicine than to send
them to the city hospital, and often
that there is more to be saved by send
ing them to relatives elsewhere than
by refusing and having them to take
care Of.
The county Is not expected to care
for the city's destitute, and unless the
good people devise some means Of re-
lieyiDg the distressed there is likely to
be much suffering here this winter.
1t is expected ihat the various benev-
olent societies. appreeiatipg the COL
ditions that exist. will lose no time in
getting TO WORK IL is Hobable that
the new administration. when mopey
is appropriated for charity In the fu-
ture, will allow it all to be disposed Of
through the civic federation, the mem
bers Of which were taken from various
other organizations.
