Noyes by No Means Shamming.
About a. week ago an interested party
in San Francisco called up DR.. Bernstein
by telephone and asked him II 1t was not
true that Judge Noyes was shamming.
I am not in the habit Of accepting
cases of men who SHAM replied the ply

two heavy hemorrhages from which he
has been brought very close to deaths

The hearing which the attorney gen
eral is giving the case will be thorough.
The attorneys representing Noyes and
Frost will ask that Frost be pardoned
outright and that Noyes be sent back to
some other district in Alaska for pur-
pose of vindication. The fine of $1,000
imposed against Moves was intended more
for effect than anything else, for 1t car

Judge Wickersham's even handed justice
it is pointed out that he recently dis
missed all the indictments that were
pending against employees Of the Lane
syndicate for attempted murder in con-

THE CIVIC LEAGUE,
Few. w. T. Gerry Outlines the Work
That si-a Been Accomplished.

In letter to the Main Street a. T.
c. Z. OF Lewiston, read al a temp erarce
meeting. Sunday evening, W. F. Berry
says OF that work:
The Leagues object is the prom It on
of good citizenship that the high pur-
pose OF the State may be realized II
aims to educate the people both IS to
the purpose C the State, the means of
securing the purpose and the duty of
the citizen. It aims to arouse and
maintain 2n Intelligent reverence for
law. It aims to help secure the best
possible laws. and the impartial en-
forcement Of law, and, without which
all other efforts will be in a large meas
ure aTai!ure, the choice of competent
officials fer the various offices to be
filled. The League is non-parti=an,
and on-denomirational.
The continuous agitation by the
Christian Civic League throughout the
State has contributed towards the most
marked, aggressive, increasing and
continuous activity against lawlessness
by the moral forces that. the State has
seen for many years. The slot gam
shed. The saloon has been driven out
OF many centerS, as at Calais, Saco,
Freedom Mechanic Falls, Cumberland
county many points in Aroostook
county. Cherryfeld. Milbridge. Winter
port. Bucksport, Patten, Skowhegan,
and other places. In many other CEN
ters active and aggressive warfare has
been waged against the saloon. but the
sympathy of officials for the saloon has
made the closing of the saloon impos-
sible, as at Madison, Livermore Falls,
Montague, North Arson, Old Town,
Richmond, Path, Waterville, Gardiner,
Hal!owell. PASSPORT and other places.
Widespread and steadily increasing
interest in good citizenship has been
stimulated throughout the State. and
has manifested itself in various aggres-
sive ways.
The continued agitation for law en-
forcement throughout the State should
go on. The Christian must be made to
see that good government is the out
come of good character, and he more
than anyone else, is responsible for
good government. The Christian must
be made to see the immediate necessity
forces in each county to- secure the
speedy election of such faithful and
efficient officers as Sheriff Pearson and
the county attorney of Cumberland
county. For good laws will never be
faithfully enforced until we have good
officials to enforce them. And we shall
never have good officials until the good
people unite for their nomination and
election.
Our present laws against the saloon
and kindred evils need amending, and
new laws need to be enacted. The
needed amendments and new laws can
only come when the good people unite
to make them come.
To unity in this non-partisan, nom
5encmina tional organization the SPLEEN
did moral forces of the State, to secure
their united prayers, their united. in
telligent, loving. loyal, continuous eff
fort for the attainment of the States
purpose, viz. the safety and happiness
of the people, by means of wise and
necessary laws, impartially enforced by
competent officials, this is the purpose
of the Christian Civic League.

Letter to A. II. Wight. ,

Dear Sir: Ira Gould, a painter in
Coiebrcok, n. H., bought of our agent
there, Wesley Wentworth. 4 gallons of
paint, thinred it down with two gallons
OF oil. ana gave his own house one
coat.
Every painter in town declared he
had painted two coats.
That's all the far the story goes
as Uncle Remus says. We don't know
whether II made a good job or not: but
the painter thought it did. We should
call ii printing. Maybe the house did
MT need painting. a printing coat is
enough if put on often enough
But if Ira Gould had set out to do us
2 favor, ne couldn't have done much
better. one printing coat of Devoe is
enough to make painters say. Hes
been painting two coats; and wants us
to tank he has done it with one, and
that halt oil, No thank YOU
We don't know Mr.. Gould but we
know Mr.. Wentworth. Guess the story
Is straight. Yours truly.

ted, last evening, at the Opera house
under the management of w. +. Nank-
vile. The play is melodrama of city
and country life, opening among the
hills of Arkansas and closing in the
great metropolis of the country. 1t
is piece of excellent moral tenor,
teaching it's lesson with marked effect
by its tragic close. The house was
small. but appreciated the opportunity
of seeing an excellent play by good
company.
The leading part was that of Tom
Logan. taken by Frederick Fairbanks.
Mr.. Fairbanks was very good in this
role, but his voice was somewhat
against him and he sometimes failed
to win that appreciation which he
otherwise deserved, on that account.
A difficult part was that of jeanette
Logan, played by Eulalia Bennett. 1t
is not a character which will please,
on account of the villainous deeds
woven into its development, but one
requiring skill and much natural talent
in its rendering. Miss Benefits in
depreciation was very impressive.

the colored individual. Henry j.
Yorkey as Jim Mason. the knight of
the road, and little Josephine Suther-
land as Samantha Logan.
