NEWSPAPER NOTES.

The Brunswick Telegraph discontinued
publication last week, the publishers, Shor-
ey & Shorey, having sold the paper and
plant to Frank B. Nichols of Bath, princi-
pal owner of the Bath Daily Times and the
Brunswick Record. The Telegraph was
started in November, 1912, by Waldron &
Moore of Lewiston, and has had several
owners, among them Howard Owen of Au-
gusta, who for a short time had charge of
the agricultural department. In 1857 the
Telegraph was discontinued for time, but
the plant was bought in that year by A. G..
Tenney, a graduate of Bowd0in, who con-
Quoted it for many years and stamped it
with his vigorous personality. C. S. Bick-
ford of this city, who had had enc years
experience as a newspaper proprietor in

death, after which the paper was bought by
the late proprietors, who have conducted it
for the past ten years: The ?.. Brunswick nnI

JAIL SENTENCES in BANGOR.
An Exodus of Liquor Dealers.

BANGOR, Me-, August 80. The first ac-
curate indication of the severity of the SEN
fences to be imposed on Bangor rumSellerS
at this term of court came Saturday morn
ing, when Hugh Jameson, Charles Reid and
William A. Withee were each sent to Jail at
hard labor for six months on liquor cases
demurred from last February.
On an Indictment brought by the grand
| Jury at this term the same men were lined
5000 a:d costs and sentenced to serve six
months in Jail On search and seizure cases
against the same respondents, the judgment
was fine OF 500 ana COSTS ana 6O days IN
Jail.
The iail sentence on the indictments is
SUSPENDED. and the complaint in the search
and seizure cases is filed. These men, there
fore, must pay fines amounting to $500 and
serve six months in jail, anyway.
In addition they each have eight months
in Jail hanging over them in case of future
violation Of the law. Judge Peabody, be-
fore passing sentence, said that he did not
understand that the prohibitory law applied
less to PenobScot county than to other coun-
ties. He understood very, well the original
plan by which Bangor dealers had been
immune for so long, but he would not be a
party to the continuance of such planl
Sufficient warning was given last February.

that persistent offenders should be severely
punished.

Capias warrants we're issued for them

their departure with the exception OF few
who remained to pass the night under the
hospitable roof of the dear old homestead
and in parting congratulations were heard
on every hand, that the yearly Jordan re-

Providence willing, all will meet again an

So ended the second Jordan reunion, pleas

x0ung Plants

Every farmer knows that
some plants grow better than
others. Soil may be the same
md seed may seem the same
but some plants are weak and
others strong.
And that's the way with
children. They are like young
plants. Same food, same home,
same care but some grow big
and strong while others stay
small and weak.
SCOTS Emulsion offers an
easy way out of the difficulty.
Child weakness often means
starvation, not because of lack
# food, but because the food
loos not feed.
Scots Emulsion really feeds
and gives the child growing
strength.
Whatever the cause of weak
ness and failure to grow
SCOTS Emulsion seems TO find
it and set the matter right.
Send for free sample.

The real interest from national
point of view in the coming November
elections comes from the light they
may throw on the Democratic nomi-
nation puzzle, says the Washington,
D. c., Evening Star. Not i'll years has
the task of discovering been SO severe
and especially is this true if second
campaign is to be taken into account.
no man who left them in 1896 shall
receive the presidential nomination.
Their victories of the past week show
they are still in control of large part
of the Democratic field. They never
weary of pointing to the fact that six
and a half million voters followed Bry-
an, while only few thousand support
ed Palmer and Buckner, asserting that
the dog will not be wagged by the tail.
This is illogical, since very large per
centage of the membership of either
party, Democratic or Republican will
vote the party ticket whatever happens.
The six and half million Democrats
who voted for Bryan did so largely be-
cause it was their habit to support the
party ticket. No doubt a major part of
the real Intelligence and leadership of
the party either voted for Palmer or
for Mckinley, but this the Bryanite
people can never be made to see, and
they are determined that the first quail
ification Of next years candidate shall
be that he actually voted for Bryan.
This requirement is almost mania
with the Bryanites of the west.
