| Amos Melvin and party of Pittstield are
occupying the Rufus Pendleton cottage.
Mrs. O. S. Rich of Bangor has arrived
and opened her cottage, Oswego Wigwam,
on Nicwa Point, for the summer months,
after visit of several weeks with relatives
| in Knox. She will be joined by her daugh-
ter, Miss Annie NJ. Rich, in short time.
Work on the auditorium is nearly COM
pleted, and the building and grounds are in
better condition and more attractive than

shingled and clapboarded, a new lattice

put in.

There are three candidates in the
field for the office of Attorney General
of Maine-Bertram L. Smith of Pat.
ten; H. E. Hamlin of Ellsworth and !
M. Libby of Mechanic Falls. We are
inclined to think that most people. in
this county at least, will eliminate the
last name from the list, and that leaves
the choice between Smith and Hamlin,
The former is and has been for some
years the County Attorney of Penob-
scot county and there can be no ques-
ton as to his qualifications for the Of
flee. This is also true of Mr.. Hamlin.
But there are other things to be be
taken into consideration. Is not Han
cock county asking too much in the
way of high offices? She has two JUS
tices OH the Supreme Bench, had the
Speakership of the last House; and the
legislature which is to elect the At
torney General is expected to return to
the United States Senates Mr.. Ham.

as though the Attorney Generalship

Bryan says he will support the ticket
but that ''the nomination. (of Parker
twas secured by crooked and indefen-
sible methods; that it twas plain and
deliberate attempt to deceive the
party And further:
'The New York platform was vague
and meaningless, and purposely so, be-
cause the advocates of Judge Parker
were trying to secure votes from among
the people who would have opposed his
views had they known them. If he
had sent to the Albany convention the
telegram that he sent to the St. Louis
convention he would have had very
few instructed delegates from the
south, and no possible chance for the
nomination. But he and his managers
adroitly and purposely concealed his
position until the delegates had been
corralled and the nomination assured.
Then his friends attempted to secure a
gold plank, which was overwhelmingly
defeated in the committee. After the
party had rejoiced over the harmony
secured by the omission of the ques-
ton, and after he had secured the NOM
ination, he injected lis views upon the
subject at time when he could not be
taken from the ticket without great de-
moraliZation.'
There is no doubt but that the whole
program at Chicago was carefully ar
ranged. Had the gold telegram been
sent before the nomination, Judge
Parker would have been overwhelm-
ingly defeated. The monetary plank
was taken out of the platform to
placate Bryan and his following. and
then the gold telegram was sent to re-
assure the Wall street ring who put up
the money to secure Parker's nomina-
ton. And while the Democratic plat
form denounces trusts and unlawful
combinations in restraint of trade, the
men who organize the trusts and who
form these combinations are credited
with raising five million dollars for the
Democratic campaign fund.

Rural Carriers Salaries.

WASHINGTON, July IS. The new salary
schedule for rural mail carriers has been
completed. The new schedule applies
from July /. The last Congress raised the
maximum salary from 5000 to $720a year. 1t
was found that the maximum route was "a
miles long and to carriers on routes of this
length, numbering about Il, 900. the maxium-
mum salary will be paid. The salaries of
carriers on routes shorter than the maxi
mum was fixed by deducting $1S for each
mile less than "a. The result has been
that slightly over twO-thirds OF the whole
force of 24,5OO rural carriers have received
Increases of 800 year in their salaries.
The remaining carriers have received in
creases of less than this amount.
This schedule takes into consideration
the expense for equipment. This makes
what is stated to be a liberal allowance for
such expenses to carriers on routes less
than the maximum length. 1t leaves about
the same appropriation available for new
service during the coming year that the de-
partment had during the last fiscal year.

The Summer Schools.

one of the most successful ever held in the
State. About $50 teachers were in attend

by State Superintendent StetsOn of Maine
and Superintendent Bates of Massachusetts,,

Superintendent Stetson is enthusiastic over
the success of the school, and says that it is
one of the indications that the Maine edu-

it nearly approaches the splendid system so
long maintained in Massachusetts,. The

COSTS NOTHING UNLESS CURED.

A Fair Offer Made by r. H. Moody to all
Sufferers from Catarrh.
r. Fl. Moody is selling Hyomei on plan
that has caused considerable talk among
his customers.
The plan is different from that followed
by other remedies, but the remedy itself is
different also. This treatment for the cure
of catarrh has such an unusual record of
cures to its credit that R. H. Moody offers
to refund the money if it does not give the
desired benefit. This is certainly one of
the fairest offers that can be made and any
one who has catarrh and does not take adj
vantage Of it is doing himself or herself an
injustice.
DO not suffer any longer with tickling,
smarting, burning, eye-watering troubles
that af1ict those who have catarrh. Hyo-
mel will cure you, but If you should not
find 1t adapted to your case, R. H. Moody
will return your money.
