and luncheon at the Girard. 1t was very
enjoyable afternoon. The retiring presi-
dent. Mrs. F. S. TOlman, spoke very elo-
quently on "reminiscences of Maine," and
then introduced Miss Mary S. Snow, for
merly Of Bangor, to give the first toast,
which she did in very happy manner

Bond of Friendship" Next was introduced

dent Mr.. Ben Foster, a native of Arson,

the dear old State may be glad to know that
those of US who have made our homes in
Greater New York are ever loyal to the old
homes, and the afternoons spent with the
Maine Women's Club are the most enjoy

THE OLDEST STORE IN BELFAST.

"The Oldest store in Belfast at the present
time is conducted in the wooden story-and-
a-half building ON the corner of Main and
Washington streets, by the Oldest merchant
in the city, and one of the Oldest in the
State" says the Belfast correspondent of
the Bangor Daily News. For many, many
years the sign, Frank NJ. Lancaster, has
as many years the old veteran in the grocery
business has been found behind the counter
waiting upon his customers, and the build
ing and proprietor have grown old to-
gether. The building was originally To-
Gated on Custom House Square, where it
was occupied by William Quimby, the own
er, as meat market. Later it was moved
to Church street, near the location of the
Hayford block, and for long time was the
headquarters of 'sTinman Hersey.' In 1865
the store, then unoccupied, was bought by
Moore d Smith. After the big fire of that
year F. NJ. & David Lancaster, whose store
was burned, bought the building and moved
it to its present location, where they con-
tinued their business. After a time David
retired and Frank Nj. Lancaster has since
been the sole proprietor. A few years after
the dissolution some twenty feet was added
to the store, which was the headquarters for
a large country trade. Mr.. Lancaster, who
is about IS years old, is the oldest active
merchant in the city, having been in trade
for more than fifty years and about forty in
one store. He was born in Northport, the
son of Humphrey and Lucy (ElwelD Lam
caster, and came to Belfast in 1855 and
went into business on the water front. He
is in good health, is at his store early and
late, and gives close attention to all the de-
tails Of his business.

A Warning.

An unsatisfactory commission merchant
is W. E. Barnes, Jr., of 1882 Broad street,
Providence, R. l. His advertisement was
inserted in The New England Homestead
November 2sth and December 9Th last, but
we find that he has not dealt satisfactorily
with some of our readers. This paragraph
is warning to all not to do business with
this party unless he pays cash in advance,
or puts up satisfactory deposit.-New
England Homestead, May 18th.
The Journal published this advertise
ment until advised by friend of trans
action that indicated Barnes was not to be
celled. AS the advertisement may appear
in other papers this notice is given for the
protection of our readers.

Peanut Politics.

Hon. "; T. ,Cobb's connection with the
Eastern Telephone Company, a portion of
which, in Knox county, was sold out to the
Bell Telephone Company, is being used as
an issue against him in the campaign for
the gubernatorial nomination. 1t is not
shown that he made any promises in be-
half of this company, or that he favored
the ale, and no one believes that he made
any false representations about it when the
charter was asked for. The attempt to
make capital against Cobb on such a weak
issue as that shows the desperate straits to
which a few peanut politicians have been

UT ITOm WILuIU, UIOuSHL W DodF against Gue
law?
The cause of such persistent efforts of
the liquor dealers trust to destroy the law
in this State is not far to be sought. They
have worked more persistently here than
anywhere else because the law orig mated
here. If Maine, the birthplace of the law,
would repudiate its own offspring, shout
would go up to the delight of all evil minds.
We don't think all minds are evil that pre-
fer license. But we do think, in the general
survey, such preference is misjudgment In
such an event as the laws repeal, we hope
not, many temperance men would be glad
with the rumsellers.
Well, as yet, thank the good Lord, we
have held fast in the faith. Shall We not
continue? A laudable State pride should
keep the law intact. The world over, this
principle in legislation is known as the
Maine Law. Our northeast corner of the
United States is everywhere known to have
originated it. After writing this fact for 50
long time, history should not now be
called to reverse the record. And it will
not Our people will stand by this enact
ment Of the fathers. They will keep for
ourselves and preserve to posterity this
guarantee to our fresides, our homes and
the sober citizenship of our State.
