inns idea, may not be elegant but it is
at least expressive.
IL would be interesting if time per-
hA'fed, to inquire what this countrv
ana lht world would have been if at
different periods during the past few
hundred Years our ancestors had
thought of this doctrine and accant.d
it.
1t might. for instance, have been
uaeu -oo years ago to perpetuate all the
abuses Of feudalism. There was much

went forth to battle, either for an idea
or for defence. had great fascination for
| many minds and it has perhaps added
;ln2e of interest or even glory to
modern historical study.
A great many people in the world
were sure that the work of James Watt
was TO say the least, superfiuOus: some
thought of dangers. but he refused to
stand Pat" and the world has been
able to progress by reason of his
/ thought and action.
so, too. many people and great inter-
ests might have been satisfied if the
world had kept to the sail boat and if
robert Fulton had never lived to dis
turb it, And still we in this country
90 pride ourselves somewhat upon this
original contribution to progress.
1t will be in the memory of many of
those who listen to me that there were
many people in this country who are
willing to stand pat upon the oues-
ton of slavery
1t is no less certain that in the early
days of New England history Roger
Williams was forced out into the will
derness because the people about him
insisted on standing pat" Still we
90 not i4call the act with cOmprehen-
sl"e pride and as if in mockery of the
doctrine that great apostle to the In
dams is one Of the commanding figures
OF our early history.
In fact. the whole of modern progress
has come largely from the refusal of
the world to stand pat" Each suc-
cesslVe generation has recognized the
virtues and accepted the labors of its
predecessors, but in doing so none has
ever declined to recognize new de-
Inanos or to correct old abuses.
mere is no more reason why we
should resolve not to revise orr ma
tlonal revenue laws than there would
nave been, other periods of history. to
stop all progress. This is especially
true OF abuses which become rooted in
human life.
1T is easy enough for the favorite
VINO IN this case is the predominant
partner with the government, to resist
any suggestion of change. But the far
mer. the laborer, the man or woman Of
fixed income, the student struggling
for an education. the poor girl support
ing her mothers family-these are en-
titled to inquire whether this poIicv of
using the law to give favors to the few
while the many are left to nurse a
sense of injustice, should become per-
manently fixed merely because power
or corruption or a short-sighted econ
omic policy has brought it to us as a
heritage.

UNIVERSITY OF MAINE,
Notes and Gossip Of the Football
Eleven.

OrOno, Me. Nov. 3.-(SpeciaD.-
football team of the University of
Maine is made up. this year. with three
or four exceptions. of new and mex
perienced men. Perhaps a short
sketch of the players will be accept
able 20 those who follow up the games
among the Maine colleges.
John Holmes Burleigh mas been the
regular man on left end. this year.
Burleigh is a South Berwick lad. and
is graduate of Berwick Academy,
where he played on his school team.
With the exception of Bailey, he is the
!ightest man on the team. weighing
only 144 pounds. He is conscientious
player and a hard tackler. Last year,
he wns the first substitute for the
position OF left end. but got very little
practical experience. as Taylor the old
and reliable. end, never baG to be taken
out of game. Burleigh is a member
of the class of 1907.
Frank RadfOrd Reed, Jr., is still at
his old home place at left tackle. Reed
comes from Rumford Falls and is a
L w..
He made the position of guard on the
Varsity in his freshman year. but the
next year upon the graduation Of
ToWse he was moved out to tackle. He
played a strong and safe game last
year. and was selected for the position
OF left tackle on the theoretical ALL
Maine team. 1t may be interesting to
note that Reed is a cousin to Captain
John Reed, the well-known Bates
tackle. Reed weighs 10: pounds and has
s'lii another year at football as he Is
member of the class of 1906
Left guard, the position held by
JIM sawyer last year, is being filled
by winfield Dexter Bearce. Bearce is
a graduate Of Edward Little High
s"hool, and his home is in Auburn,
which city has sent to Maine such
payers as "Frisky" Davis, f. F.
i,earce, and Bailey. Bearcei had very
niue experience in prep school, and
was practically a green man when he
joined the squad last year. His progress
IN football has been rapid, and he a
s'rohS aggressive player. He still has
another year at football before gradua-
uon. His weight is 1875.
FRANK Everett Learned Is the steadi-
est player on the team, and has been

Conservative Japanese realizing the

Regarding the capture of Hihlung and

In August the Japanese succeeded in

other forts they were compelled to re-

is impossible to hold East Keekwan and
that therefore an attempt on that posi

PORT ARTHUR DOOMED.
Japanese Now Control All the Com

Che Foo. Nov. 3.-3c p. m.-Port

The correspondent Of The Associated
Press here has re 'eived information,
the reliability of which is beyond ques-
ton. that the Japanese now occupy
positions which place the east side of
the town at their mercy.
The last assault has gained for them
positions which insure their ability to
enter the main east forts whenever
they are ready.
1t is calculated by the Japanese that
if the Russians do not surrender the
latter will be capable Of prolonging
their final stand at Liaotf mountain and
on the Tigers tail for a much longer
time with the mere hope of p i. nging
the struggle. Long before tn Second

The Japanese have not occu, ed the
main forts and highest points of the

enable them to drive the Russians back

VERY IMPORTANT STEP
TAkENtT SAVE DEsTROC-
TON IN THE Phil
lPPlNES.

WASHINGTON, May 9.-The Blu
reau of Insuar affairs. War Depart
ment has received from the Bureau
of Government Laboratories. Manila,
a bulletin which treats of sutta per
cha and rubber plant in the Philippine
Islands, from which the following
items of general interest have been
taken:
The commercial history of the Sutta
percha runs parallel with that of sub
marine and subterrenean electric ca
b1es, for three.fourthS of all the Sutta
perclla produced has been used on
them With the construction OF the
great transatlantic cables in the six
ties and seventies, the demand for
gutta percha became enormous When
the Malay Peninsula, adjacent to- Sing
apore, failed to supply sufficient guam
titles to meet the demand, the adJa-
cent islands we're invaded, and rich
finds made Finally Borneo was IL
cluded in the producing scene and
lastly the Philippines. In the Philip
pines the regions which produce sutta
percha fo1. narkeo are confined to the
islands of Mindanao and Ta"I-Ia"l.
The trees are in the tropical forest
region which are inhabited by the
widest Pagan tribes. These natives
are the natural gutta percha collect
ors. and. as a matter of fact. they
have done all the collecting since the
beginning of the industry. They de-
sired to secure the maximum yield
from each tree With the minimum eX-
penditure of work or time. They cut
down the tree and the larger branches
are at once Topped Off by the collec-
tors TO prevent the gutta percha from
flowing back into the small branches
and leaves. The milk, as it flows out
is collected in gonrds, cocoanut shells
or on large leaves AS soon as the
forestry bureau was established IN
1899, rules were provided for tapping
the tree with a bo1o in such a manner
as to secure the milk without destroy
ing the tree. but the wild natives new
err practiced this method nor did they
ever hear of the rules and all the gut
ia percha SO far exported has been at
the expense of SO many trees Killed
Islands such as Mindanao and raw
Tawi cannot stand this for any length
of time and already the gutta percha
trees have entirely disappeared from
the vicinity of the coast regions and OF
the large rivers.
