AN ELEVATOR
Sadly Needed in the Work of the City
Hospital.

The great pressure upon the accom-
modations of the City hospital, the
present winter, has emphasized some of
its greatest needs more sharply than
ever before. There are a number of
things which the hospital ought to
| have, and which it hopes to have in the
future; but chief among these is a
new elevator. At the present time pa
tients are carried from one floor to
another on stretchers-not only to
their greater or. less discomfort, how
ever carefully this may. be done, but
to the very serious Inconvenience of
those who are forced to handle them in
this manner.
1t is evident that good modern ele-
vator which will enable patients to be
handled on wheel beds, is now an inn.
perative need. To be sure, however, it
will entail considerable expenditure
of money. The house was not origin
ally constructed to meet such an emer-
Sency and it is probable that por-
ton of the building may have to be
rebuilt to provide the necessary well.
1t is evident to the directors that ither
needs of the hospital will have to be
held in allegiance until this very vital
one is provided for.
The general public can never know
the strain that has been upon the de-
voted nurses who have watched day
and night, the present winter, over the
desperately sick people committed to
their care, and whose work has been
such an important factor in holding
the death rate down to a surprisingly
low figure. Their work should be and
must be lightened in every possible
way that will at the same time con-
tribute to the comfort and welfare of
the patients.
Several days ago, a well-known Au-
gusta gentleman placed in the hands
of DR.. B. I. Sanborn, one of the d.
rectors of the hospital. check for $25
as a starter for an elevator fund. 1t is
to be hoped that others may follow this
example. 1t is work which may well
enlist the cooperation of all who have
the public welfare at heart. Subscrip-
tons for this worthy purpose may be
left at the Journal Office. or sent to

WARD 4 CITIZENS CAUCUS.
A Ticket Nominated to Be Supported
at Municipal Election.

| In response to a call issued by some
private citizens for a Ward caucus rs
OF 80 voters of that ward met in the
| room of the board of aldermen at $50
o'clock, Thursday evening.
A. M. Goddard, Esq, called to order
and stated the purpose of the caucus in
! a speech of three minutes. He said he
had always been a Republican, and
voted the straight Republican ticket of
his ward, last spring. But at that
caucus, last year, the French popuia-
ton of the ward crowded into the en-
CINE house, where it was held so much
that many voters We're unable to get
inside the caucus and We're accord
ingly disfranchised by that means
as far as the privileges of participant
ing in their party councils was con-
cerned. He had never believed in
drawing the lines of nationality i'm any
such way, but thought that French
Republican and d native Republican
should have an equal chance in their
party and in the city government. A
petition had been presented to the Re-
publican city committee asking that
they call the Ward caucus at the
city hail. where there would be room
caucus of long hours so that all could
have chance to go. The city com
mittee had referred the matter to the
committeeman from that ward, and
had refused to force any change from
the old time manner of holding the
ward caucus there Then he had start
ed call for this citizens vaucus, and
he was proud of the 102 names that
had been gladly placed upon it.
Mr.. Goddard called for nominations
for chairman, and half dozen voices
nominated A. M. Goddard, who was
chosen by reclamation. Henry A.
Heath was chosen secretary in the
same way.
Nominations for alderman were
called for and William Johnson pro-
posed the name of DIR. Edward ].
Roberts, who was nominated by accla-
nation.
The other nominations were also
babe by reclamation, and numerous
voices in all parts of the room seconded
each name as it was presented.
On motion of Frank Chase, nominal
ton was made of Henry A. Heath for
councilman.
Arthur e. Percival was nominated
for the other councilman on motion of
William Jackson.
Stanley X. Hawkins for warden. His
name was presented by Frank Chase.
Charles c. Ballard for ward clerk,
on motion by Arthur Z. Percival.
Walter p Hall for constable, on mo-
tion of William jackson.
The chairman suggested a ward
to look after the proner
filing of nominations with the city
clerk, and to take care of the interests |
of the candidates generally. A COM
mittee of five was voted and chosen
by nominations from the floor. The |
committee members are Wallace NJ |
Prescott. w. w. jackson, Wallace r. !
Jones, Charles E. Sweeney and Fred |

the committee asked Mr.. Cakes, n in
his Judgment. considering how differ
ent the conditions are In rural dis
tricts from those in cities, 1t would not
be very difficult to frame a general
caucus law that would prove satisfac-
tory. Mr.. Cakes said it certainly is a
difficult task. but he thought his bill
would meet the needs of towns as well
as cities. He said his objection to the
present Australian ballot law Is that
it is encountered with too much ma
chinery. a CAUCUS law, so far as pos
sible, should be made self-enforcing.
L. l.. Walton of Skowhegan, said lie
thought both the Mills bill and the
Cakes bill have great merits but
neither of them, in his opinion, quite
reach the exigencies of the situation,
so he had prepared new. caucus bill,
by taking the first three sections of the
Cakes bill, adding as Section 4 a new
provision requiring complete enroll
meEt by February 1, 1904, and after
that date a man who was absent on
February /, may enroll at any time
prior to the holding of the caucus by
taking the prescribed OATH
Representative Kelley of Lewiston,
thought that i'm any caucus bill the
preparation of the checklist should be
left with the city and town committees
of the different political parties.
Senator Gardner of PenObscot, spoke
in approval of the idea of bill to cor
rect the evils attendent upon party
caucuses. He would leave with the
town committees the authority to put
upon the checklists the names of the
voters.
The last speaker was Representative
Downing of Sorrento, who said he was
ready to endorse any general caucus
bill whose provisions he had reason to
believe would prevent men of one
party and by their vote aiding in de-
termining who the nominee for public
Office should be.
The various bills were referred to
subcommittee.
The committee on legal affairs heard
Hon. 0. r. Hersey of Portland, in
favor of the bill which extends the
time in which billiard halls may be
kept open in the evening. The COM
| mittee will report the bill.

ton to establish system of municipal

Peter Charles Keegan of Van Buren,,
addressed the committee on interior
waters, last evening, in support of the
proposition to dam the st. John river.

Maine but there was some in the Cana
