Five weeks ago the JOURNAL suggested
that the Mayor and Councilmen should
meet, formulate their plan of action
and let the people know fully prac
ticable w hat they proposed to do.
This they did not do.
And it is argued that, waiting for "tht
experts" report, they could do nothing
Now, suppose, on the other hand, the
expert was waiting to see whether
there would be $l5,0O0 to Spend-what
then?
The result proves that there should
have been no waiting, least of all by

On motion of Samuel C. Manley, Prof
Charles F. Cook was chosen secretary.
Alderman Charles S. Hichborn then
addressed the caucus.
"Nominally," said he, this is called
as caucus of the Republican voters of
Augusta, as l understand it; but in
reality it is ratification meeting, to
ratify the administration of Mayor Tit
comb. He was nominated by you one
year ago by acclamation. Much was
expected of him at the time and much
has ne done during the year. Facts
and figures will be presented in due
time which will demonstrate that he
has been one of the best if not the very
best mayors which the city of Augusta
has ever had. 1t rs with pleasure,
therefore. that 1 move the. nomination
of Hon. Lendall Titcomb of Ward 6. as
our candidate for mayor. and that he
be nominated by acclamation."
Applause greeted this splendid pres
entation of Mayor Titcomb's name, and
then the chairman put the motion and
declared the caucus to have unanimous
ly nominated Hon. Lendall Titcomb as
it's candidate for mayor.
1dliS were lieli Hiduc loi -hdyoi III
comb, who was present, and he finally
arose and addresssd, the. caucus.
y thank yOu,'' said he, .'for this ex-
preston of your confidence. Many men
in this city. of greater ability and far
more, deserving. might well feel proud
of this honor which you have given me.
In giving me this second nomination
you may have some good will for my
SELF for which 1 thank you most sin
cerely, but I take it that it is rati-
fication of the members of the city gov
ernment who sat in their chairs and by
their wise acts made it possible to Sc
cure capable and competent officials to
transact the business of the city dur
ing the year which has passed.
There never has been a year when
the attendance of aldermen and cOun-
cilmen. at regular and special meet
ings, has been so punctual and regular
as this year. The business of the city
has been carefully and 1 believe wisely
administered by them. The weighty
affairs of the city of Augusta have been
in good hands, and this splendid tribute
which you have paid to them through
me is deeply appreciated by me.
This high honor. this great honor,
of second nomination will always be
highly priced. 1 thank you once again
for it, (Applause).
| At the conclusion of Mr.. TiteOmb's
| speech the caucus adjourned.

Ward 4.

The Republican caucus in Ward 4
was one of the most interesting of the
day. 1t had been hinted that the
Franco-American voters would put a
ticket in the field, but it was not ex-
pected that they would attempt to cap
t,re the whole thing. This intention
was made known very plainly, how
ever, early in the meeting.
The caucus was called to order by
Frank f. Chase, member of the city
committee, who nominated DR.. f. j.
Roberts for chairman. DR.. A. o. Bou-
lay addressed the meeting, placing Ami
Cassavant in nomination and calling
for a ballot. This was granted and
resulted as follows:
Whole number of vote cast, 127

Some time ago the Journal published
the statement that Librarian Carver
had secured a copy of an old-time
newspaper printed more than 100 years
ago. AS a result of that item Mr.. Car
Yer has recently received the following
letter from George H Witherle of Cas-
tine:
A few days ago, / noticed in the
Bangor News a statement of a recent
purchase by you, for the State library.
of copy of a single number Of the
Castine Journal. 1t then occurred to
me that few items in regard to that
paper and the extreme rarity of copies
now remaining might interest you.
1T was the first newspaper east of
the PenObscOt. So far as known, 1t
lived during only two years, 1899 and.
1900 My father was the owner of
bound copies of the volumes for these
two years, which are now in the pos
session OF his two surviving children,

to some extent through newspaper in
quiry. to ascertain if any other copies
We're in existence. but none have been
brought to light, with a single excep-
ton. This was about five years since,
George w. Bickford of Burnham, being
the owner of single number, he hav-
ing received it from his father, Alfred
Bickford. in whose possession it had
been for about so years. the original
recipient being Mary A. Lowell Of Nor
riGgcwock. You will see therefore, that
you have acquired an exceedingly rare
specimen.
Il enclose with this, for the library.
a copy of another paper published here
for two years-"The Eagle''-the first
number of which was issued in NOvem-
Der. 1909. This was the property of
Hon. Job Nelson of this town, judge of

years. Very late in life he removed to

sides all the numbers of the first vol
