ADemocratic House Needed.

With the increased representation i'll
the next House of Congress it will re-
Quire 1914 members TO make majority.
There are now 156 Democrats in the
House, SO that presuming all of their
seats will be retained in the elections
of this year, the Democrats will still
need to gain thirty-eight new members
in order to have q majority.
The question the Democratic cam
,aign managers have to figure on is
where they can most surely make
nights with the prospect of winning
those thirty-eight seats. A careful re-
view of the votes cast at the election
of 1900 shows that there are many
more than tEirty-eight congressional
districts as they are now formed, and
in spite of recent Republican gerry
manders. in which the Democrats nave
fighting chances against majorit:es
ranging from 16 votes to 200 votes.
With the dissatisfaction that Is per-
vading Republican ranks in the West.
with the great strikes on in the East,
and with the beef trust revolt affect
ing the people in every part of -ae
country, the Democrats feel that the
current Is with them and that they
may fairly expect to win the majority
of the next House.

publicans a battle to the last ditch In
every doubtful district in the Union.

Republican Philippine Secrets.

Senator Culberson Of Texas has
caused a deal of fiuttering In and
around the War Department by his
revelation of official documents relat-
ing to the Philippines which seem to
have been withheld from publicity with
the greatest care. These documents
contain, it is true. fresh evidence Of
revolving cruelties practiced upon the
natives by subordinate officers. doubt
less without the approval or knOwl-
edge of their superiors. But what Is
the occasion Of all the official secrecy
documents to which Congress is en-
titled?
Secretary Root has apparently mani
tested much frankness in submitting to
the Senate such official reports from
the islands as have come to his hands.
Yet Senator Culberson has several
times endeavored to secure the passage
of a resolution calling upon the Secre-
tary for the papers in the Arnold-Weir
case. and each time he has been baftied
by the Republican majority of the
Senate But now. when he has secured
the documents by some leakage in the
War Department. the Indignation over
the matter In administration circles
goes far to encourage the suspicion OF
evil thinkers that there are other doc
uments of like character which are sed.
ulously kept from the light.

Invoke the Criminal Law.

W. j. Bryan. i'm his paper. addresses
a letter to President Roosevelt. urging
him to cause criminal proceedings to
be started against the alleged beef
trust Incidentally Mr.. Bryan declares
the President courageous man. He
begins by quoting the provisions of the
Sherman antitrust law. and continues:
You are the chief executive of this
nation, and as such are not only EN-
powered but are required To enforce
the law. BY commencing a civil action
against the members of the beef trust
you declared that the members of that
trust are. in your opinion. guilty of a
violation of the law. Why do you hes
itate to commence criminal action!
The penalty fixed in the statute is in
significant compared with the penalty
prescribed for violation of less i'm
portant statutes. If the members OF
the beef trust have raised the price of
meat one cent per pound, they have laid
a tax of millions of dollars upon the
people of the United States.
1T is publicly stated that some of the
capitalists have condemned you for at
tempting to enforce the antitrust law
even by civil process; it is even limited
that they threaten to oppose your re-
nomination if you show the strenu-
BUSINESS in this direction that You have
shown toward the FilipinOs, but can
you be scared by such threats? Will
you fear to face concentrated wealth!
Civil suits may annoy the captains Of
industry, but IL you are going to
shackle cunning you will have to
shackle it with criminal laws. A
prison cell will prove more effective
in the prevention of monopoly than
judgments or DEGREES for the payment
Of money. You have chance to show
that you were in earnest when you
made that Minneapolis speech"

The Democracy of Indiana.

ne democracy Oh 1Hulauas
The Indiana Democratic convention
was as harmonious and enthusiastic
as such gatherings ever are when they
address themselves solely to the prin-
ciples of the Democracy There are
but four Democratic members from
Indiana in the present Congress, the
total membership from that State be-
ing thirteen. Under the new Congress
siOnal appOrtionment it is possible that
the Democrats may carry two or three
additional districts.
The Republican gerrymander of the
State lacked material elements of
strength. In trying to make more
''sure districts" than the popular vote
warranted the Republican majorities
were spread out thinly even under the
landslide vote Of 1900. All the close
districts are likely to elect Democratic
members this year
The Indiana Democratic platform re-
verts to indisputable Democratic prin-
ciples. The spirit Of the convention
in all its stages was pledge of har-
mony. efficiency in the campaign and
an old-fashioned Democratic move
ment with reasonable assurances Of
success at the polls.
1t is a noteworthy fact that the In
diana Populists also held State con-
vention on Wednesday, nominated a
full State ticket and adopted a regula-
ton Populistic platform. As they are
going in a direction different from that
which the Democrats have taken, both
parties wisely dropped the idea of a
fusion.-Chicago Chronicle.

lire AT RUMFoRo FALLS.

Fire Thursday evening made almost a
total loss of the planning mill of V. A.
Linnell on Congress Street, Rumford
Falls. The building was practically
destroyed and most of the machinery
was too badly burned to be of any use.
Some tools and tool chests were not
seriously damaged.
The fire department responded prompt
" TO the alarm, and did good work in
holding the flames within bounds.
Curneil's large stable, situated beside
the mill, was threatened and about
everything was removed from it, but il
was saved without damage.
1t is supposed that the fire caught
from the stove. Loss about $500; in
surance 5000. 1t is not known whether
Mr.. Linnell will rebuild.

TEAM STRUCK BY TRAIN.
TWO WOMEN SERIOUSLY HURT AT
BUCKFIELD. NARROW ESCAPE
FROM DEATH.
BrCKFIELD. Jan. 1

BCCkFIELD, Jan. {.
An accident occurred here Wednesday
afternoon which gave a great shock to
the whole village. As Mrs. Victor Pear
son and daughter of West Buckfield
were coming over crossing, the $40
northbound train crashed into the
team, throwing the occupants and
sleigh one side of the track, while the
horse landed some distance away on the
other side. Mrs. Pearson came out
with a broken arm and other wounds.
The daughter was carried several feet,
her head bruised, some of her hair was
cut from her head, fur cape was shorn,
leaving only about six inches in depth ;
her clothes torn and smeared with wheel
grease. She lay in close proximity to
the rails, unconscious.
They were taken into the home of A.
W. Libby and kindly cared for until
physicians were called; as it happened
at the time there were none in the viii
lage. 1t was not long ere Drs. Head,
Caldwell and Andrews were on hand,
when everything was attended to. The
daughter soon recovered consciousness,
and matters appear favorable for an
early recovery.
The sleigh was nearly demolished, the
horse escaped uninjured.
A very miraculous escape from instant
death, is the general remark.

THE SPIRIT OF WINTER.

The Spirit of Winter is with us, max
ing its presence known In many different
ways-sometime by CHEEKY sunshine
and glistening SHOWS, and sometimes by
driving winds and binding storms. To
many people it seems to take delight
in making bad things worse, for rheu-
matism twists harder, twinges sharper,
catarrh becomes more annoying, and the
many symptoms of scrofula are devel,
oped and aggravated. There is not
much poetry in this, but there is truth
and it is a wonder that more people
don't get rid of these ailments. The
medicine that cures them-HOod's Sar
saparilla-is easily obtained and there
is abundant proof that its cures are
radical and permanent.

1He CREAMERY AssuREo

VI. r. Berry and Mr.. HapgOOd of the
Portland Creamery were in town We'd
uesday TO confer further with a commit.
tee of the trustees of South Paris Saw.
ings Bank regarding the purchase of the
shoe factory building. As the result of
the negotiations the trade was closed the
next dy, and the building is now the
property of the Portland Creamery Co.,
who will establish branch of their bust
ness there.
A. W. Walker Il Son have contracted
TO put in 800 tons of ice in the basement
of the building, and +. p. Burbank has
been engaged TO take charge of the work
of getting the basement ready for the
ice, which will be completed as soon as
possible.
The boiler which now stands in the
basement of the building has been tested
and found TO be of questionable safety,
and a new boiler will be put in. 1t is
hoped that the engine may be in condi-
ton TO use.
The Portland Creamery does large
business in butter and sweet cream and
milk, not only selling sweet cream in
Portland but sending large quantities of
it TO the Boston market. Their Portland
plant is on the Maine Central, but it is
probable that, with their South Paris
plant in operation, they will establish a
new distributing depot on the other side
of the city near the Grand Trunk. While
considerable cream will probably be
shipped from here, butter making
plant will be put in. and at least a por-
ton OF the cream will be churned here.
OF course TO make the business sue
cessful they must have the patronage of
the cream producers of the vicinity.
This they ought to have, and from what
conference they have had with the farm
ers so far there is every reason TO expect
that they will get it.
AS the creamery will occupy only the
basement and the first floor of the build
ing, the proprietors will have the second
and third floors To rent, together with
heat and power from their boiler. This
would afford good opportunity for any
one with a small manufacturing bust
ness.

A GOOD RECOMMENDATION.

could any medicine have than for peo-
pie to call for it when again in need of
such remedy? Try them when you feel
dull after eating, when you have bad
taste in your mouth, feel bilious, have
no appetite or when troubled with con-
stipation, and you are certain to be de-
lighted with the prompt relief which
they afford. For sale by F. A. Shurt-

people:
Commissioner Of Inland Fisheries and Game
Henry o. Stanley. Dlxheld.
Trial Juslice-Fred A. Delano, oxford.
Justi c of the Peace-John L. stephens, Kun

Mr.. Stanley was first appointed by
Governor Sidney Perham in 1872 and has

time, even during the Greenback regime
in 1879. A number of candidates an
nounced themselves for the position, but
would not oppose Mr.. Stanley.
