Portland Advertiser: 1t is now the
season for bathing at the beaches. This
is one form of summer recreation that
never goes out of fashion, but on the
contrary seems to become increasingly
popular as the years 60 by. To those
who find relief and exhilaration In ocean
bathing, it is undoubtedly the supreme
Joy OF midsummer, but to others 1t
brings exhaustion and to them its at
fractions are not personal or extensive.
They are compelled therefore to lie In
the sand and see others enjoy the con-
fiiet with the waves. But the bathers
may find danger lurking in the sea for
which they are not looking. In the first
place they are very likely to overdo the
thing. To stay in water until the lips
are blue and hands shaking won't do
man or maiden any good. The exhilara-
ton that is the chief delight of bathing
is lost and instead of healthful pleas
ure 1t becomes weakening and debil-
tating exercise.

Government Ownership

After long and exhaustive study Of
the problem of government ownership Of
railroads, Mr.. II. r. Meyer tells the
readers of the Railway Age that the
experiment is failure. There are two
parts OF the world where 1t has been
tried, the conditions being widely differ.
ent. Europe and Australia have al
tempted it, but it is notable that while
In Europe the problem has been largely
one OF the adjustment Of rates. in Aus
tralia 1t has been one of management BY
the politicians, who, whatever their
shortcomings, have been absolutely
clean-handed European regulation Of
rates, Mr.. Meyer finds, has been pro-
ductiye OF paralysis of railways, trade
and industry, and he believes that any
attempt to carry out this system in the
United States would produce worse
effects here, because Of the higher stan
dard OF Efficiency which Is demanded in
this country. la Australia the govern
ment ownership of railroads has led TO
decentralization Of the functions Of gov
eminent, paternalism being carried to
an extreme. The United States, adopt
politician, IN his attempt TO become d
business man, would import a great deal
OF undesirable politics into business,
Whatever one may think of these con-
elusions, 1t is certain that discussion
OF the question cannot fail 10 be one Of
benefit in this country. In considering
the experience of other countries, how
ever, 1t Is easy to place too much stress
upon the results, regardless OF the con
ditions by which these were brought
about. Not only the adjustment of rates
by the governments, but the character OF
the governments of Germany, Austro.
Hungary and Russia must be reckoned
as variable elements considered with
regard to the problem in this country.
The problem of relative reasonableness
of rates made by railways leading from
rival producing sections and distributing
centers to common markets and to rival
markets is too great to be settled off
hand. Whatever information gained
| elsewhere is available, when all is said
the United States practically will have
to approach the problem de novo-

For Testing PURPOSES.

The Kennebec Journal states that Dr.
A. G. Young, secretary of the state board
of health, is busily engaged In arranging
with druggists Ia the principle cities and
towns of the state to take out and keeI
on hand the necessary apparatus fol
testing for diphtheria, tuberculosis and
typhoid fever, for the use of the locaI
physicians in the diagnosis of cases
This arrangement is being made under
the laws passed by the legislature last
winter, providing for a state laboratory
of hygiene and for such outfits. The
outfits will be furnished to the druggists
from the laboratory free OF charge, but
there will be no compensation TO the
druggists for keeping and caring for
them.
The method which is being followed
by DR.. Young is selecting the druggist
where these outfits shall be placed, is t1
write to the secretary Of the local board
of health in the particular city or town
and request him to recommend some
druggists to do this. AS soon as the
recommendation Is received DR.. Young
writes to the man and makes the neces.
sary arrangements.
When the arrangement has been com.
pleted and the outfits sent out complete
lists of the several druggists in the state,
who have them, will be published for the
Information Of the public generally.

Maine Granite.

The good news comes to Rockland,
Me-, that the big granite manufacturing
plant at Clark's island, closed about a
year ago, is to be started up again at once
and already operations are being made
to reopen business. j. c. Rogers, the
millionaire granite manufacturer, who In
company with Mr.. Mclean, conducted
the business there so successfully till its
close, is the moving spirit In the re-
vival Of that industry. He Is the largest
stakeholder In the Clark's Island Granite
Company and also is largely interested
In granite business In Stonington.
Mr.. Rogers was asked recently to
figure on the granite for the 100000
Cleveland public building, to supply
Maine granite as called for in the archi-
tect's specifications.
Some famous buildings Of the country
have been built of Clark's Island granite,
and when worked to its fullest capacity
$50 men were employed there.
Taken In connection with the starting
up Of quarries at High Island by Will
liam Gray & Sons of Philadelphia, and
the great revival Of the granite industry
all along the coast Maine in 1903 will
surely lead all other states in granite
productions as she did for the first time

Large CROPS.

In spite of the adverse weather con-
ditions, food and drouth the general cor
dition of crops all over the country are
according to the report of the U, S.
Agricultural department favorable.
The July condition is given as 79.4
and the acreage S9,S00,000. 1t is cal
culated that this indicates total yield
of 2,262, 100000 bushels as compared
with last years record yield of 2,523,-
64S,912 bushels. This would be a de-
crease of 60,0OO,000 bushels in round
numbers, or something more than ten
per cent. That is relatively quite a
drop, to be sure, as compared with the
breaking crop. but as compared
with former years crop exceeding two
and quarter billion bushels is immense
and there should be little cause for
complaint.
The wheat yield, while it Is going to
be less than indicated in June, is still
going to be very large. The indicated
winter wheat harvest of 1908 is 463, 498,-
900, with an acreage of 80, l07, 900,
against All, 788, 666 bushels and an acre
age Of %, 5S1 APO in 1902. This shows a
gain of nearly 100000 acres and more
than 100000 bushels in amount.
Spring wheat, on the other hand, shows
a slight falling off of about million
bushels, or from 25S, 374, 426 bushels last
year to 257, l29, 900 bushels this year.
Hence the total estimated yield of
wheat, both spring and winter, for tt e
present year is 720, 627 900 against CO.
063, 900 actual harvest last year, or a
total gain of 100000 bushels. This
is large absolute gain, but it has to be
borne in mind that there is an increased
acreage this year of about 1000 0G0, the
total area in wheat this year being
50,364, 900 acres against 46, 202, 424 acres
in 1902. 1t is likely to be some time
before the record of 1901 Is reached
again, when the acreage was 40 500, 514
and the actual yield was 748, AGO, 21S
bushels.
There Is an estimated failing off In
oats of l35, 100000 bushels on about
1000, 900 less acres than last year. The
average condition OF barley Ia reported
to be Sc against 81 on July l, 1902 !;
o. winter rye 90.2 as compared with 9l.2
last July; of spring rye IS 3 against SO 3
last year; Of potatoes $751; as compared
with 92,9 last year, on an acreage of
$4,000 acres less than 10 1902.

RailrOadR Interested.

The scarcity OF valuable timbers is felt
by no class of consumers more keenly
than by the railroads, which use every
year Ito, 000,000 ties merely to renew
those worn out and decayed. The price
of timhers has risen In some instances
to figure which makes their use pro-
hibitive; in other cases The supply is SO
nearly exhausted that the roads have
been compelled to look about for new
timbers.
The Bureau of Forestry has been called
on to assist In solving the difficulty, and
has come forward with the very practical
and simple suggestion that the railroads,
instead OF continuing to use expensive,
high grade timbers for such low grade
purpose as that of railroad ties, shall use
the cheaper woods. For example, to the
complaint of the New York Central that
1t finds 1t more and more difficult to
secure longleaf-pine ties from Georgia at
the price it can afford to pay, the Bureau
suggests that the road use the beech,
maple, and birch of the Adrondacks.
The complaint that the timbers rot very
quickly when laid in the ground is an
swered by the suggestion that they
should be seasoned and preserved, just
as beech is seasoned and preserved in
France. The Great Eastern Railroad of
France has succeeded in making beech
ties last 80 years by impregnating them
with tar oils. The unseasoned longleaf-
pine ties used by the New York Central
last only five years and the beech IL laid
green, without seasoning or preserving,
would in many cases last no more than
three Years. The substance of the pro-
posal which the Bureau has made to the
railroads, and which the railroads have
thought so we'll OF as to adopt, IS that
experiments be made to determine
whether cheaper timbers may be treated
with preservatives at cost 80 low and
be made to last such long time, that 1t
will pay to substitute them for more ex-
pensiye timbers now employed.

Boston Transcript The Endorsement
of President Roosevelt by the Kentucky
Republican State Convention at Louis
vile, yesterday means something. Ken
lucky is State in which Republican
success at the polls is possible. 1t has
had two governors Of late years, and
would have one now but for the Goebel
law. Indeed, there is still Republican
State official in Kentucky, the attorney
general. Therefore an Endorsement from
Kentucky Republicans is In very differ
ent category from an Endorsement by
Georgia or Mississippi or Louisiana Re-
publicans. In this particular instance it
has the added significance of coming
after opposition from ex-Collector Sapp,
whom President Roosevelt dismissed for
his violations of the civil service Law,
and who put himself in consequence at
the head of the anti-Roosevelt forces.

Reporter-Journal; The Pullman COM
pany has sued bridegroom for 5000
damages claimed to have been done one
Of it's cars by friends Of the groom and
his bride, who tackled shoes and banners
on the car in which they were riding.
1t would be bad luck indeed If the BRIDE
groom has got to be responsible for his
alleged friends. He ought to have good
grounds for damages against them him
SELF instead of having to pay on their
account. The outrages perpetrated on
newly married couples ought to be sup
pressed anyway, and If the perpetrators
do not know better than to damage
valuable property, they are the ones
who ought to suffer, not the victim Of
their foolishness.

Like Father Like Son

1t appears that the son Of the anti
tious Joseph Chamberlain, Coloaial
secretary Of the British Government,
does not relish the idea Of his son TOR
lowing in his footsteps in the matter Of
marrying, but the son purposes to have
his own way about it, as be should.
Society and diplomatic circles in Lon
don are interested In the apparently
well-formed rumor that Miss Muriel
White, only daughter of Sec. Henry
White Of the United States embassy. it
engaged TO be married to Austen Cham-
berlain, NJ. P. the eldest son Of Colonial
Sec. Joseph Chamberlain, and that the
colonial secretary objects.
II lie stated that the sole objection of
the secretary to the match is bis we'll
known ambition that his daughter-iu-law
shall be a member Of the nobility. Il
also is said that when Austen Chamber
lain approached his father with regard
to the matter and heard the parental
objection, he reminded the latter that he
himself had married al American girl
Miss Endicott of Massachusetts, daughter
of the war secretary ia the Cleveland
cabinet.
Despite the parental opposition, Aus
ten Chamberlain has persisted in his
suit, and the present report adds that his
marriage will occur very shortly. The
bridegroom elect Is 40 years of age,
while Miss White is in her early twenties.
he has accumulated considerable wealth,
and is one Of the most popular members
Of parliament.
Miss White has had two seasons in
society and has been greatly admired.
She is very beautiful, with a wealth Of
auburn hair, and very deep blue eyes.
