BRYAN POPULAR.

A special from Augusta, Maine,
Of July 25, says:
"The coming of William J.
Bryan, who addressed a large
Democratic meeting here this aft
ernoon previous to going to Ban
gor, has added interest to the
State Campaign, which already
gives promise of being the livliest
the Pine Tree State has seen in
many years.
This interest will be further in
creased by the visit next month of
President Roosevelt, who has ac-
cepted an invitation to speak at
the Eastern Maine State Fair at
Bangor. The Republicans are
conducting their campaign with a
view to holding their major
| ity up to the usual figures,
while the Democrats are working
strenuously with the hope Of cut
ting the Republican majority down
enough to have some effect on the
elections in other States. The
Maine election takes place in Sep
tember, two months before the
balloting in other States.
The enthusiasm occasioned by
visit from the great leader of the
Democratic forces is evidence o
live issues and that the people
who are supposed to figure in tn,
approval of measures are dissatis
fed with the drift of things anC
are willing to consider suggested
remedy.

be of untold value to the adver-
tiser.
AS labor and capital are inseL-
arabic, SO are the press and the
business interests of the country.
Kill capital and your laborer must
perish; wipe out your means Of

and labor are paralyzed. Again
the press must talk our advanta-
ges; it must oppose every op'
posing argument, and to do this
the business men must be willing

WATER FOR THE Gem f.
Terry.

Why is it that the managers OF
Machpelah Cemetery do not have
water put in the cemetery9 Such
an addition would be appreciated
by the lot oweners and the many
who visit this beautiful and sacred
resting place of their dead. The
main has been placed according to
contract, but does not extend to
the limits of the cemetery.
We are informed by an official
of the Mt. Sterling Water Light
and Ice Company that his com
pany has promised to donate for a
period of five years all water that
can be used provided the ceme-
terry company would go to the ex-
pense of placing the necessary
pipe leading from the main either
on the Owingsville or Spencer pike
to the desired location Of hydrants
in the grounds.
This offer is certainly generous
on the part ofthe water company.
They are under no obligations to
give free water. We desire to eX-
press our appreciation of their
kindness. What more could the
cemetery company expectn If a
small pipe q or inch would be
sufficiently large, the expense
would not be very great. If a
larger pipe is necessary let that be
put in.
Carrying water in jugs and bot
ties should be thing OF the past.
We hope arrangements will be
made at once for water.

WARNING.

There is law agaiI st selling in
ioxicants to inebriates. Venders
Of liquor should be reminded OF IT
and if they persist in the viola
ton OF this law then it should be
enforced. This fine isS5o for each
ohense. So long as the people
permit thelicenseing Of saloons we
believe in protecting their. business
exactly as others. The law
against selling to inebriates goes
farther than this: if warned he is
liable for damages to the depend
ent ones. We would have ven
ders consider this law and the au-
thorities to know X is not a dead
statute.
