In the nomination of Hon. William
Titcomb Cobb of Rockland as the Re
publican candidate for governor of
Maine, the Press unhcSitatingly
seconds the many good things which
are today being said about him, and
extends to him not only it's cOnSratu-
lations but the assurances of its sup
port in the campaign now opening.
While the Press has been for Col
Prescott from the first day Of that
gentleman's candidacy. it has regarded

which differing opinions concerning
the affairs of the state and localized
loyalties to the several candidates.
contributed only to Il livclier flow Of
sound Republican sentiment and
whatever the outcome. to the general
good Mr.. Cobb was one of the group
of three main candidates, all men Of
the highest character and of broad ex-
perirncc, each credit to the state
which bred him, each fitted in an un-
usual degree to fill the office for which
his lame was being mentioned. But
one could win: accepting which, every
clear-hcaded Republican could and did
feel the great advantage of having in
the field three men of such type. so
that whichever one might win, the
party and the state remained under the
proper control devoted to the purposes
by adherence to which for many years
it has made Maine what she is. Cum

Colonel Prescott's candidacy were good.

add nothing to what it has already
said as to the logic of Cumberland
standing Loyalty by York. That their
interests in such matters would better
be one. and that both OH account of the
past and for what may be required in
the future by either or both of them a
perfect unity and mutual aid should
prevail between them, we think none
of our readers need be reminded. 1t
was logical and proper that Cumber-
land should he for Colonel Prescott:
and York's candidate at this time was
a man to support whom was a
privilege and a pleasure.
Now that the nomination is made.
every friend of Colonel Prescott will
turn to cheerfully and help not only in
the election of Mr.. Cobb. but in the
raising Of a big Republican majority at
the September election. The enthus-
iasm which has in so marked a degree
been manifested for Col. Prescott. will
now be turned to aid the progress of
his friendly rival. The Republican
party of Maize will recognize that it
has a good Candidate, a strong candi-

Record has learned a lot about Maine
geography during the past few months.
In commenting upon the list of dele
gates chosen to the Bangor convention
it prints the names of a dozen or two
Maine towns of which it thinks few
people ever heard before. In the list
are Newry, up in Oxford county, which
will celebrate the centennial of its in
corporation, next year; Columbia Falls.
a Washington county town of 600 pop
ulation; Willimantic, famed as having
one of the worlds largest spool mills;
West Bath a Sagadahoc town incor-
porated so years ago; and Burlington
and Passadumkeag, both old Penob-
scot towns, each with population of
over 400. The Record man must have
a very limited knowledge of his State
to speak of these as unknown towns.

Lest We Eorqet.

The preliminary poppings OF the
great national holiday are now occa-
sionally heard as the small boy finds
himself unable to resist the temptation
to set off an occasional firecracker. and
this is a reminder that We are close
upon another celebration of our ma
tional independence which will doubt
less cost the country more lives than
have been lost i'm many of the worlds
great battles. The returns show that
the casualties of July 4. 1903, were more
than the combined Russian and
Japanese casualties during the first
months of the war between those coun-
tries and were more than our total
loss during the war with Spain. This
was the record of July 4, year ago:
Died of lockjaw caused by injuries 400
Died of other injuries ............ oO
Totally blinded Observation-Disclosures. ~
Number who lost one eye %
Arms and legs lost ................ 81
Number who lost fingers ..... ia
Number injured who recovered. 3,9Sl
Total number of casualties in the
United States NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.. 4,34J
Is 1904 to beat this record? These
figures are commended to the thought
full consideration of parents whose
young hopcfuls show Il disposition to
carry too far the celebration of the
glorious Fourth. BY all means. let
young America celebrate the great
holiday and learn it's true Significance.
but why give him free license to blow
his eyes out or lose his life after the
horrible suffering of lockjaw? Thest
casualty figures do not give any idea
of the injury done to the sick and
nervous by the terrible racket kept up
in every city during the whole night
before the great holiday. A plea is be-
ing made this year, in some of our
great cities for a sane" celebration of
the glorious Fourth, and in a few daY1
we shall know how effective was tHs
