brighter, in which case he would again

Why Women are Single.

What are the best reasons that keep
a woman from marrying?
A newspaper offered prize for the
best answer to the above question, and
as might be expected a cynical bache-
lor won the prize, although it seems a
bit strange that a cynical bachelor
should be able to win anything.
These are the reasons submitted:
Her inability to make up her mind.
The horror of being given away"
The unhappy results of most mar
riages.
The fascination Of continuous fiirta-
ton.
The uncertain quality of husbands
temper.
The glory of having never accepted
proposal.
The scarcity of desirable, or even
tolerable men.
Her satisfaction in saying mo.
when she means Eyes"
The saving in human life through
the absence of bad cookery.
The Objectionable clause in the mar
riage service relating to obedience.
Her natural selfishness places the
happiness of the man she loves before
her own, and she remains single.

Names Handsome Tribute.
Boston Journal.)

The news from Maine will cheer
President Roosevelt's return journey
to Washington. 1t is as significant In
it's way as the early June election III
Oregon. 1t means that as yet there is
no subsiding in the Republican tidai
wave. Indeed, the Republican plu-
rality in Maine, though falling Snort Oh
course. of the extraordinary record OF
the Presidential year 1900, seems TO be
heavier than that of the Congressional
year 1898.
The Republicans had expected to
come out of the contest with lead OF
about 10000 votes. AS matter OF fact,
they seem to have at present writing
UPWARDS of $4,000. There can be no
diagnosing the meaning of this. 1t is
a decisive Republican triumph.
In September, 1900, Gov. John F. Hill
was elected for the first time by a.
900 plurality In the November follow
ing President Mckinley received $4,000.
That was in the year of a great, 'ex-
citing national election. The total vote
is naturally less this year than in 1900.
But Republicans and Democrats seem
to have absented themselves from the
polls, yesterday, in about the same
proportion, so that the Republican pre-
ponderance remains almost I'M
changed.
Maine. it should be remembered, is a
State which has heard President
.ROosevelt's frank words in the trust
question. 1t has also heard Senator
Lodge, Secretary Shaw and other con-
spicuous protectionist champions. It's
great plurality signifies popular ap-
prevail of the Republican argument
and popular confidence in the Presi-
dents plans and purposes. 1t is also
an earnest and merited Endorsement Of
the excellent administration of Gov.
Hill. 1t is a foretaste of what may be
expected next November in Massachu-
sets. Tine winds sweeping down from
the Maine hillsides will have a chilli
ing effect on the New England Democ-
racy ana it's recent efforts to get to-
gether'' and count for something in ma
tional politics.
Moreover, this emphatic Republican
victory has been won in the face of Sc
rious local and fractional quarrels over
the liquor question-quarrels of kind
that cannot but have injured the ma
jority party more than it's smaller and
feebler antagonist. Maine Republicans
are entitled, today, to the hearty con-
gratulatons Of their party friends
throughout the United States.

The Victory's Significance.

The comment of the press all over
the country on Names glorious Re-
publican victory, Monday, shows the
national significance of our election.
The nation was watching Maine, and
the result makes Republicans every
where proud of its Republicanism, and
fills them with confidence and encour-
agement for the general congressional
election in November. The sweeping
victory, with the almost unprecedented
off-year plurality, shows that there is
no subsiding in the Republican tidal
wave, and that the fallacious argu-
ments and the indiscriminate abuse
offered by the Democracy are falling
fiat. 1t would have been thousand
pities, if the county contests which
caused SO much cutting of local candi-
dates, had prevented the party from
general ticket.
But the Republicans of Maine knew
their duty and they did not allow any
local contests to confuse them as to
the most important issue of the day
The local and fractional quarrels over
the enforcement question inevitably
injured the majority party in the half
dozen counties when it was raised
much more than the minority party,
and in the face of this it is a notable
victory, something to be very proud of
and very happy over, that the State
was carried by such an overwhelming
vote for the Republican State. congress
sional and legislative tickets. Maine
stands by the Republicanism of Theo-
dore Roosevelt, and its verdict of Mon
day will have a very chilling effect up
on those who hoped to get encour-
agement here for the cause of free sill
Yer, free trade and the Sinking of ma
tional responsibilities. AS Maine has
gone so will go the Union in November

At GiIley's Point.

Augusta will gladly welcome the new
mill at Gilley's point for the cutting of
poplar timber into lengths suitable for
pulp mill use. 1t will not be an ex-
tensive plant, to be sure, but a new in
dustry employing even a score of men
is not to be despised, and we wish
there We're a prospect of a few more

and speaking of Giley's point, how
r'any Of our citizens know anything
of the historic associations of this
pretty srot? 1t is on the east shore Of
the river about three miles above the
bridge, and few places around here, or
in all Maine, for that matter. have q
recorded history reaching back as far.
1t was there that Father Gabriel
Druillettes. coming down from Que
hec. established the Mission of the
fui though powerful Canibas Indians
who had small settlement there. This
was in 1916, over ceNtury before Fort
Western was built. At that time the
only white men in this region were the
traders from the Plymouth colony who
came here every year to barter with
the simple natives. Among them We're
Winslow. Bradford, Alden, Standish
and Rowland. and thus the Pilgrim
fathers who maintained the Cushnoc
trading post from 1923 to 1860 were re-
motley the pioneers of Augusta, and
many times by the same feet that con-
secrated Plymouth Rock.
But these shrewd and sturdy old
colonists came up the Kennebec for
the sake of gain not to spread the
gospel, and the Jesuit priest who
built his humble log chapel at Gilley's
point in 1916 was the first evangelical
laborer in this part of Maine. He re-
manned a number of years and ac-
CURED much influence with the tribe,
but he had no immediate successor,
and the ravages of the years, or
perhaps the bloody Indian wars, soon
obliterated all traces of his modest
place of worship.
A century and more later, when the
permanent white settlers came and q
little village grew up around Fort
Western which was built, as we all
know, in 1854, the little point wherc
| Father Druillettes lived and labored
| acquired the name of Gilleys point in
honor Of John Gilley who was one Of
the early settlers and lived near there
This John Gilley lived to a very great
age, reputably 124 years. He died jr

Reflections of a Bachelor.

1t is a great shock to have man re-
turn money that he has borrowed.
When woman has on her best
clothes she wants admiration; all the
rest of the time love.
Women will weep for a man and love
him the more; when they must blush
for him it closes their hearts against
him.
The average woman thinks of n
queen as having stately shoulders and
flashing eyes; the genuine article is
fat, flabby and fishy.
Some women who would drop from
exhaustion if they had to sweep a
square yard of carpet can shop all Gay
and come out of it with an appetite for
an all-night dance.-New York Press.

The voters of Maine evidently have a
pretty thorough understanding of the
alleged intricacies of the secret ballot.
Never in the days of the old system
was there SO much cutting of tickets
rs there was. Monday, in three or four
counties where there were sharp con-
tests for some of the county officers,

manifest advantages that no echo of
the abuse once showered upon it is now
