Newspaper Notes.

John A. Dillon, editorial writer on the
New York World, who was injured recent
ly by being thrown from his horse when
riding with Joseph Pulitzer, the owner of
the World, died at the Pulitzer residence in
Bar Harbor, Oct. 18th.
Col. G. H. Prescott of the Biddeford Jour
nal entertained the members of the Maine
Publishers Association Oct 18th. The fes-
tivitieS included shore dinner at Old
Orchard and a trolley ride. After dinner
meeting of the Association was held. 1t
was voted to recommend to the legislators
at the coming session the passage of bill
embodying the Massachusetts law regard
ing newspaper libel.
Edgar Yates, a former editor of the Bidde-
ford journal, has readable article "On
Writing Editorials" in the October number
of The Writer. Mr.. Yates conclusion is
that an editorial, to Justify its existence,
should touch the real life of the people 1t
should be as democratic as the news col
umns are; it should inform and comment
it should suggest, incite, inspire: it should
be sunny and philosophc, broad-minded
and good-natured, simple and strong.

the challenge from Sir Thomas the plans
for the new craft were drawn up many
weeks ago and orders were placed for con
struction metal and other requisites, so that
the builders are now actually ready to be-

great abilities as have characterized his con

There was tremendous applause at this,
and Mayor Boothby was forced to speak

Theodore Roosevelt on "The Presidency

Before his nomination for the Vice-Presi-
dency Theodore Roosevelt wrote expressly
for The Youths Companion an article on
"The Presidency" 1t will be published in
the number for November 9th, this being
one of the remaining weekly issues of 1902
sent free from the time of subscription to
every new subscriber who at once sends
s1.75 for The Companions 1908 volume.
When this article on 'The Presidency" was
written no one could have foreseen or
be called upon to take up the duties of the
great office. For this reason alone what
Mr.. Roosevelt has to say possesses extraor-
dinary interest, and will be eagerly awaited
by persons of all shades of political opinion.
A twenty-eight- Prospectus of the
1903 volume of The Youths Companion and
sample copies of the paper will be sent free

This is the closing paragraph of an
address delivered "Wednesday evening,
Oct. 18th, at the monthly dinner of the
Boston Boot and Shoe Club by James
II. Torrpy OF Scranton, Pa, upon the
conditions at present existing in the
coal fields OF that State Mr.. Torrey
came to Boston as the representative
If the Scranton Board of Trade, in
response to the invitation of the club.
Here is another OF the many striking
extracts which might be made from his
address:
1t would be hopeless in the limited
sine at my disposal to give any ade-
Juate description of the condition of
Affairs Which has existed in the anthra-
cite regions for months past. Every
sort of personal attack has been resort
ed to: numbers of men have been bru-
tally murdered, while greater numbers
have been beaten and dubbed and
kicked into insensiblity and many of
them manned for life; houses have
been stoned and dyhamited; the wives
and children of parents and other rela-
tives of workers have been assaulted
and terrorized; all approaches to col
lieres have been picketed by armed
and unnamed gangs of strikers, and a
most complete and comprehensive sys-
tenn Of boycott and intimidation has
been carried out, extending to the re-
motest degrees of consanguinity and to
che most insignificant relations of life
I is almost inc0nceivaGle to what de
grees the boycott has been carried
Not only have merchants been forbid
den to sell any goods to non-union
workers, but priests have been forbid
den to baptiZe their children or bury
their dead, and in one instance a con
siderable portion OF the congregation
OF a church marched ont in body, led
by a member Of the district executive
board, because the priest refused to
eXpel one or two non-union men who
We're attending service. Doctors have
been forbidden and prevented from at
tending the sick and nurses from caring
for women III childbirth. In one in
stance that came within my persona
knowledge, non-unlon man, who haC
been beaten by mob and whose arm
and leg were broken, was forcibly pre-
vented from having medical attendance
for three days, and it was only the ar
rival of the militia which enabled hi
friends to get him to the hospital
Every sentiment of sympathy and fra
ternity, and even of common humanity
seem to have deserted the minds O
those who are determined, at any cost
that no work shall be done withou
their permission.

Sweet Corn Two Cents Pound

At a conference of the leading corn pack
ers of the State held in Portland Oct. 10th,
it was unanimously agreed that the price of
sweet corn paid to the farmers in 1908
should be two cents per pound. This in
crease in the price of sweet corn means
many thousands of dollars to the farmers
of Maine. 1t is an advance of SO per cent.
on previous prices and will render the bust
ness of raising corn one of the most profit
able in this State 1t will help the dairy
interest as the fodder can be used for stock,
and that means more stock and more fertile
farms in the future.

frost, there was but little damage. Port

There are a number of varieties o f
labor unions. Many of them deserve
and receive tie encouragement of en-
pl0yers. But the union whose under
living principle is Wreasoning suspicion
ot and hostility to employers; whose
motive is the arbitrary control of every
branch of the business; whose officers
are selected for their effectiveness as
agltat0rs: whose weapons are dynamite,
Che boycott and the budgeon; whose
eIdettes are walking delegates inspired
by the motto Find a grievance or make
one: whose effect is the reduction of
efficiency to the lowest level and whose
ultimate end is communism, is an ln-
mitigated curse to employer, employed
aad the common veal. In the opinion
Of the business interests of the anthra-
cite region, which through the Scranton
Board Of Trade I represent, such a
union is the L. NJ. ". \. In resisting
its demands the anthracite coal opera
tors are fighting our battle and yours,
and their defeat VIII mark a long step
in the direction Of fastening upon this
country the grip Of this class OF unions,
which would in the end stitie its indus
trial .ife and END its commercial prog
ress.
