CONGRESSIONAL NEWS.

Washington, Dec. 1.-THE Senate
spent the day on the Cuban bill, most
of the time being occupied by Senator
Bailey of Texas, in an elaborate
argument against the constitutionality
of the proceeding. He claimed that
no treaty changing the revenue laws,
that was not first authorized by
legislation originating in the house,
was valid. He also opposed the bill
as matter of general policy Brief
speeches were made by Senators
Teller, Depew and Lodge The latter
asserted that Cuba had adopted the
same immigration laws as those of
the United States in regard to Chinese
immigration.
The pension appropriation bill was
before the house but no conclusion
was reached. The isthmian canal, the
republic of Panama, the tariff and
tobacco interests and questions affect
ing labor were debated.
Washington, Dec. 15.-The senate
continued the debate on the Cuban
bill Senator Perkins of California
spoke for the measure, as did Mr.
Simmons of North Carolina Mr.. Nc
Cumter of North Dakota opposed it.

extended speech against the bill
during which there were numerous
colloquies between himself and
Messrs. Aldrich and Dolliver. Senator

too high. Mr. Dolliver replied to
suggestions made by Mr.. Patterson
that Governor Cummins of Iowa had
changed his tariff views after having
visited the white house. Others were
c-Saged in the debate. Senator Nor.

respect to such purchase.
Rural free delivery, reciprocity
with Canada and Panama were topics
of discussion in the house The sub

OBITUARY.
BARLOW HALL.

bahLoN
This community was saddened by t he
announcement OF the death, at about
IL O'Clock this forenoon, of Barlow Hall,
one of Ellsworth's oldest and most dis
tinguished citizsns, Mr.. Hail has been
bed-ridden since Octo Der, 1901.
Barlow Hall was the son OF Barlow and
Christisns Hall. He was born in Trenton
on March 30, 1882, and was thus in his
seventy-secoad year.
Just before the breaking out OF the
Civil war he firm of II. NJ. & B. Hall was
formed, and this partnership continued
unbroken until near the time OF the death
OF his brother Henry M, in September,
1900. AT one fine this firm was one of
the largest Ium bering concerns in Maine.
Mr.. Hall had the misfortune in 1873 to
be struck by a knot thrown from palmer
in their Water street mill, which resulted
in the loss OF his eyesight.
Mr.. Hall was one OF family of seven
children-five sons and two daug ghters; of
these one only remains-Othniel, who
lives at the Hall farm at Brimmer's bridge.
Mr.. Hall was twice married. His first
wife was Isabel Week, of Belfast, whom
be married in 1855. She died Ia 1868,
and. be afterwards married her sister
Sarah, who, with two children, Isabel and
Barlow, survives.

The President has taken step likely
to promote good feeling between the
United States and Germany by order
ing that the European feet proceed to
Keil to participate in the great naval
regatta to be held there in June. This
action will, it is believed, disarm that
section of the German press which has
been diligent in its protestations that
the United States had spurned the
friendly advances of the Kaiser on
every possible occasion. 1t will be
remembered that the President was
obliged to decline the invitation ex-
tended for the visit of the North At
lantic squadron to Kiel, some time ago.

A Rit of History

The death on May 25 in Indianapo-
lis, of Col. Zemro A. Smith will call to
the minds of the older residents OF
Ellsworth the stirring political times
that Immediately succeeded the war,
when democrats were SO few that
che very smallness of their numbers
induced harmony, while the republi-
cans, flushed with victories, were ripe
for internal dissensions, which speed
i1y came.
Early in 1866 Col. Smith came to
Ellsworth and started the Hancock
Journal; the Office was in the second
story of the Tisdale block-the block
recently bought by Lygonia lodge of
Masons.
Ia The political campaign of 1866 the
Journal opposed the denomination of
Hon. F. A Pike for Congress, who
was up for fourth term, and favored
the nomination of Gen. J. G. Caldwell
incidentally it seems that a phase
Of the Journals scheme was to
"down" the ELLSWORTH AMERICAN,
then owned and edited by the late
N. K. Sawyer.
In one of the hottest political
eaucuses ever known in Ellsworth,
Pike won over Caldwell; in
the convention that followed
Pike was renominated, and was
esected the following month.
The Journal fingered along for year
or two, and then went the way of
many another paper, before and since,
that has undertaken to supplant THE
AMERICAN.
Two years later, in 1868, Eugene
Hale, now Names senior senator, was
nominated for Congress and elected,
and reelected in 1870. In 1872,
In the famous Greeley campaign,
Pike again became candidate for
Congress, this time of the sliberal
republicans of that day. He was en-
c0rsed by the democrats, but was
Overwhelmingly defeated by Mr.. Hale.
Mr.. Sawyer, who bolted Mr.. Hale in
this campaign, and supported Mr..
Pike, was so crushed by his defeat
that he was willing to dispose of THE
AMERICAN, and in the fall of 1872 the
Hancock County Publishing 90. was
formed and purchased the paper.
Col. Smith left Ellsworth after the
suspension of the Journal, and went to
Boston, where for many years he was
en editorial writer on the Boston Jour
rel. In the SOS he went to Leaven-

An Unusual Compliment.


tits doubtful if greater compliment
was ever paid to President than that
implied by the generous endorsement
Of President Roosevelt's candidacy to
sncceed himself. Fifteen states, rep
resented by $50 votes in the national
convention, have already endorsed, in
state convention, the candidacy of
Mr.. Roosevelt, and the action of the
Ohio convention, which is assured,

There will be 9S5 votes in the nation

have already declared for Mr.. Roose-
Welt are Alabama, Arkansas, Connec-
ticut, Iowa, Kansas, Massachusetts,
Missouri, Minnesota, New York, Rhode
Island, Texas, Utah, Washington,
Illinois and Pennsylvania.
Ohio will add its endorsement this
week, and the following have pledged
their support through their state chair
men: California, Michigan, Maine,
Tennessee, Kentucky, Colorado, Wy
01ning, Wisconsin, Idaho, Oregon,
New Hampshire, Vermont, Maryland,
West Virginia, Nebraska and Montana.
These will add $50 votes to
the above number, making grand
total of $50 votes, or 237 more than
enough to nominate, pledged to Presi-
dent Roosevelt more than year in

Liquor Along the Coast.

1t is doubtless true that along the coast
of Maine, especially the coast of counties
in which the prohibitory law is now being
strictly enforced, the peddling of liquor
is becoming general.
Lobster fishermen tell a correspondent
of THE AMERICAN that they sell Holsters
to smacks that are the purchasing agents
In boats and steamers-and that they have
the option OF taking their pay in cash,
fishing supplies or liquor.
One lobsterman, in the presence of his
wife and family, said that most OF them
took small portion in liquor, and the
balance in cash and supplies; that nearly
every iobsterman took liquor as a
stimulant, first as a help in cold or bad
weather, and secondly to cheer him up
In case of the "blues"-for much of their
work depends on luck and favorable
conditions. He further said that smacks
couldn't get lobsters-if they we're plenty
unless they carried liquor.

Spare the Robin!
WEST FRANKLIN, May is, 1908

To the Editor of The american:
l have been ar interested reader of the
robin controversy in THE AMERICAN.
do not agree with Mr.. Wooster that the
law protecting the robin should be re-
peaIed. His arguments in favor OF repeal
have been chiefly clippings of newspapers
from far distant states, where the sur
roundings are not similar to ours.
A pair of robins have Dested in trees
near my dwelling for the past twenty five
years. / have tried to protect them from
the cats and crows, their natural enemies.
Sometimes | raise small patches of
awberries In close proximity to their
nesting place.
/ have seen them on the straw berries
many times with worms and insects in
heir bills, which they carried to their
young, but have never seen them with a
straw berry, nor have / ever thought that
they meddled with them.
i do not wish to convey the idea that l
do not believe the robins eat some of Mr..
Wooster's straw berries. Undoubtedly
they are inviting, and the robins take a
bite now and then, but do believe that
the amount destroyed is small, in compar-
ison with the good that they do in
destroying insects that are natural ene-
mics to the products of the farmer.
II Mr.. Wooster is as patriotic as one
might infer from his articles, why not
su ubmit to the loss of few straw berries
in silence, and let the robins live, in order
that the "greatest good might be done to
the greatest number"f

Two moose, and good ones, too, visited
Fred Marden's door yard yesterday
morning. They came out of the woods
back OF the house, came up into the
door-yard, looked around for while.
then went away. In going, they had to
vault fence-one of those wicked wire
fences that sometimes trouble men to
get through. One OF them missed its
footing and got tangled in the wire. Mr..
Marden, seeing the predicsmsnt it was
in, got help and went to its assis ance.
They had no trouble in laying the animal
down and freeing 1t, whereupon it arose
and departed without thanking anybody.
This is getting to be a common occur
renee. Not only are moose frequently
seen, but also deer and other large game
are seen herea bouts, all OF which goes to
show that large game has not been exter-
minated in Hancock county.
