Something That Will Do You Good.

be of more service to our readers than
to tell them Of something that will be
of real good to them. For this reason

it has become a household necessity.

The Maine Must Be Raised.

Saturday, February Is, was the
of the battleship Maine in Havana har-
Dor. After the first horror and grief Of
that bastard crime had subsidized the
cry went up from all over the land that
the battered wreck must be raised
and rescued from the mud Of the har-
bor's bottom. Engineers declared it
possible and many contractors pro-
fessed to be ready to undertake the
task. Four years have passed and
there the warped and rusted hull still
lies. its mast and a part of the twisted
debris of the deck still showing above
first morning broke after the hellish
deed Of treachery had been committed.
contract has indeed been let to Chi
cago parties by the war department for
raising the wreck, but the time limit
given the contractors has long since
expired. and they had made not a sin
gle step toward beginning the work.
The agreement with them was that
they should take he wreck as remu-
Grafton and should give the govern
ment 3 per cent. of the proceeds from
the sale of the ships material in the
form of souvenirs, not a wholly pleas
ing stipulation to the patriotic mind. 1t
In now said that new propositions for
raising the Maine will soon be called
for and it Is to be hoped that the gov
eminent will not make another con-
tract of that kind. The shattered
wreck of the Maine should be kept in
tact and remain government property,
patriotic shrine for generations to
come and should not be manufactured
into souvenirs"
At first the reasons advanced for
raising the Maine were mainly senti-
mental and these are still of no little
weight But there are other and more
important reasons. The wreck is a Sc
rious menace to navigation in Havana
harbor. Not only is there constant dam
ger of collision with this reef of steel,
but our engineers and divers have es-
timated that fully nine-tenths of the
explosives in the magazines were not
disturbed when the vessel was sunk.
and are still capable Of working awful
havoc among the shipping and water
front of the city. And there is still an
other reason. for the hull Of the Maine
is the tomb of 100 American sailors and
marines. The mute appeal Of their
whitening bones, If nothing else, should
stir the government to speedy action In
the matter.

An objectionable Plagiarism.

A year or more ago the Journal no.
ticed in the Hartford (Conn). Courant
poem Battle Flags" credited to
Francis Gallagher. 1t was word for
word the poem so famous and well
beloved in this State, The Returned
Maine Battle Flags" written about
1868, by the late Moses Owen Of
Bath. A framed copy of these verses
hangs in the rotunda of the State
House beside the tattered and faded
flags which inspired the beautiful
lines, where it has been read by every
visitor to the Capitol for many years.
In the February number of that excel
lent publication. Current Literature,
the same poem appears. taken from
the Courant, and still credited to this
cheerful, .plagiarist Gallagher. We
spoke of the manner in which the
Courant had been imposed upon, at
the time the poem appeared in its coll
umns, and other papers did the same.
The Courant and Current Literature
are hardly to be blamed, but Francis
Gallagher, whoever he is. should lose
no time in explaining how this poem,
not word of which is his own, hap
pens to be circulating over his name.
1t is not conceivable that he is labor
ing under the delusion that he wrote
the poem. Possibly there is blunder
or misunderstanding somewhere and
he may not be to blame for the UNI
fortunate injustice which the Courant
and Current Literature are doing the
memory of the Maine poet. But on
the face of it, it is an outrageous and
utterly objectionable piece Of pla-
giarism which should be fully ex-
posed without delay.
Maine has no intention Of allowing
this precious poem to be appropriated
as his own, either accidentally or in
tentionally, by Francis Gallagher or
anybody else. Moses owen, who
wrote it,. third of century ago,
was one of the brightest young men
that Maine ever produced, a veritable
genius. and his untimely and pathetic
death, a few years after his gradua-
ton from Bowdoin college, cut short
what gave every promise of being a
brilliant and successful career in lit
erature. ~ ET rT -

Bates Great Victory.

City hail at Lewiston, Friday evening.
a report Of which appeared on the first
page of Saturdays Journal. 1t Is an
honor for a college to win athletic
laurels: but it is more Of an honor to
win distinction in contests that call for
the highest exercise of the intellectual
abilities and attainments.
The high character OF the dis
t!nguished gentlemen who officiated as
judges. is a sufficient guarantee that
Eates won this great contest strictly
upon its merits.
Unquestionably the high standing
which debaters at Bates have been able
to attain. is due in large measure, to
the interest taken in the discussion OF
public questions, in the college So
cieties. Not only have these discus
sions been generally participated in by
the students: but they have also had
the benefits that came from the stimu-
lus of society rivalry. Moreover, the
college gives debating every encourage
ment
Ii is scarcely possible to overesti-
mate the value and Importance of
such forensic training. Too often, col
lege authorities have been disposed to
accord it scant attention. We hope
that debating contests may be-
come more frequent in our State,
and that out of them may come
more general interest among
the young men of our State in &C
quiring the ability to express their
views in public with ease and clear
ness.
In winning their contest with Har-
ward the Bates boys have more than
realized the most sanguine expecta-
tions of their friends. They have, in
this signal triumph, reflected great
honor upon themselves. their college,
and their State.

At the gathering of the National
WOman's Suffrage association at
Washington. last week. some inter-
esting facts were brought out as to
the progress of the movement in for
eign lands. This convention. in fact,
was a landmark in suffrage history
because it heralds the expansion Of
permanent organization to include the
whole round world. A federation was
confirmed at this meeting which in

means to the United States. Many
other countries have fallen in line. it

the last International Council of Wo-
men in London there were representa-
tives of ten countries where women
have received partial suffrage. with
full franchises in three since 1870. 1t
was only in 1869 that public agitation
for suffrage was begun in England.
That was the entering wedge, for in
that year. il transpires, John Stuart
Mill presented the subject to parlia-
ment and all Europe has since dis
cussed the practicability Of woman
suffrage. Few people know perhaps
that in New Zealand. South Australia
