More Convention Echoes.

The Collins papers are attempting
to make much of the fact that there
was so much of Collins sentiment and
so little Dunn sentiment at the recent
State convention at Minneapolis. We
can very easily explain that little
matter: Dunn and his followers
rightly contended that the convention
was national matter and that no
State matters should be injected to
disturb the equanimity of the occasion
and therefore kept out of all SEM
blance of making an impression. We
admire Mr.. Dunn the more for taking
that stand Stewartville Times.

Enough to Disgust.

AS to "Veneering."

Some of the Collins papers say that
Bob Dunn is not fit to be governor
because he is not polished enough. He
may not be an aristocrat who has as
sociated with the silk-hat crowd all
his life, but he is 'polished" enough
to suit the common people, and they
are the people who intend to see that
he is nominated for governor

The Reason WHY.

G. A. Smith is one of the Collins
boomers in Minneapolis. It seems as
though we had heard something of
Smith before. O yes, he is the mil
lionaire lumberman that Bob Dunn
brought suit against when he was
State auditor and whom he made pay
back into the State treasury for lum-
Der that he manufactured from timber
stolen from State school lands and
sold at big price to the farmers of the
State. Good reason why he should
work against Dunn.-Slayton Gazette.
In the Cheney Class.
We wonder what consolation there is
in it for the Wadena Pioneer Journal
editor to call the Detroit Standard
lone of Heatwole's string of papers,. -
Editor Eastman knows he is telling a
falsehood when he makes such a state
ment and the readers of his paper at
large, long ago, have tumbled on to
the fact that the P. J. man has lost all
regards for the verify and reliability
of his offerings in political matters.
Truth compels us to place Eastman in
the ranks of modern fiction writer's.
and as a politician incidents of the
past will bear out the assertion that
he is forlorn hope.-Detroit Stand

ENCOURAGING REPORTS,

Bob Dunn has recently returned
from trip south where he has been to
rest up and get in shape for the siren
uous work of the campaign: On his
return to St. Paul he is met with most
encouraging reports from all sections
of the State that were received during
his absence. Review.

Southern Minnesota Sentiment.

Southern Minnesota Sentiment.
A we'll known travelling man, who
makes many of the southern towns in
the State says that the Dunn sentiment
in that part of the State is growing
stronger every day. This is what is
being reported from all parts of the
State. Grant County Review.
Red River Valley Sentiment
There isn't a county in the Red
River Valley but what from one to a
dozen farmers can testify that while
State Auditor Bob Dunn never sold a
farmers land away from him because
he was behind in his payments and
unable to meet them-and he could
have done SO had he desired. He ism It
built that way. Mr.. Dunn is making
his own campaign for governor. He
has not been selected" by any set or
clique of men to make the race-but
he will be selected by the Republican
party as it's candidate at the coming
State convention because the people
want him and the politicians DON'T

Solid Support.
The Pioneer Press, printed in St.
Paul for nearly ffty-two years is for
Dunn for governor. The Pioneer
Press is and has always been a conser-
vative paper, says the Spring Valley
Sun. We believe the editorials in the
Pioneer Press are more thoroughly
read and digested by the thoughtful
and intelligent voters of the State than
any other paper in the twin cities. We
believe the editorials in the Press
carry more weight than those of, any
other paper in the northwest. We be-
tlieve the Press has larger number
of readers over fifty years of age than
any paper which circulates in Mime

POLITICAL COMMENT
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
Prospects Grow Brighter,

AS time goes on Dunn's prospects
are growing brighter. His record as
State auditor show what sort of a
business man he is and what we NAV
expect of him when he is governor.
Collins still has his record to make.
and between the two the people are in
cilned to take to Dunn. Gilmore Eve.

THAT YACHT CLUB YARN.
The New York Club has no Intention of Es-
tablishng Even IA Station at Fort Point.

The New YORK Slub mas no intention OF Es-
tablishing Even il Station at Fort Point.
NEW YORK, Feb. Is. Especial to the
Portland Express.) The name of the New
York Yacht Club has frequently been used
to boom real estate values at various points
along the coast from Florida to Halifax
The latest hoax of this nature comes from
Bangor, Me, in story that the club has
decided to buy large tract of land at Fort
Point, on the PenObScOt bay, for a summer
rendezvous. Officers of the club said last
night that the organization had no idea of
adding to Its responsibilities by such
move. The club fleet Oh its annual cruise
seldom goes around Cape Cod, and so few
vessels go as far east as Penobscot bay that
it would be poor policy to establish even a
station at Fort Point. Speaking of the re-
port last night, Secretary George A. Cor
mack said: "There is no truth in the story.
Some people down there told us that they
had some property for sale, but we told
them we had no use for it. There have
been no negotiations at all.
The rumor thus authoritatively set at rest
we have long known to be entirely unfound-
ed. We were assured weeks ago that the
New York Yacht Club had nothing what
ever to do with the land deals in Stockton
Springs and Searsport. AS stated above
the club fleet seldom goes around Cape Cod.
Newport is the chief summer rendezvous.
We recall but once in the past twenty-five
years when the fleet came this far east and
then half a dozen or so of the sailing yachts
made the run to Bar Harbor. Single yachts
often come east, touching at Rockland or
Camden and then going direct to Bar Har-
Dor, where there are social as well as scenic
attractions. If they were to establish a
station in this vicinity it would hardly be
in close proximity to what must be busy
railroad terminal.

HARD TRAVELLING.

Country Roads Almost Impassable. The
CapsiZing of Carload of ShOats. The
Roller VS.. the Triangle. How Brooks
Does 1t.
Teamsters report that travelling on the
country roads is the hardest they have ever
known. The snow came gradually and a
narrow track of solid ice was formed in the
middle of the roads, which increased in
height with each storm. AS the snow was
very light horse, man or sled, getting out
of the beaten track ever SO little, would
sink down from one to three feet in the soft
snow, and in the drifts much deeper
Teamsters seeing others approaching would
wait at a good place for the other to come
up, but at short turns and on the hills this
could not be done, and the passing of the
teams was difficult. Nervous horses got
down in the snow ard were pulled out with
difficulty, and we learn of several cases in
which span was cast, one upon the other,
and third horse was required to pull them
out, even after the men had Shoveled the
snow away. One drover reports that he
capsized rack-ioad of shoats into about
feet of snow, and the porkers burrowed
under the snow in all directions giving the
men lively hunt to get them again. An
other had cow get into the snow, lose her
courage and make no effort to get up. The
snow was shoveled away, and a stone drag
with cleats across it was placed in front of
her. She climbed onto it, stood up and was
hauled out to the solid road
In this connection the plan adopted by
Brooks and some other towns is interesting
Instead of using the oldfashioned triangle,
which throws up heaps of snow on each
side, they have large roller, 16 feet long
This is put on after each snow storm, thus
rolling the roadbed down to firm surface,
and making no banks on the sides. When
spring comes the shedding remains longer
and ''mud time" is shorter than where the
snow is scraped off.

RURAL MAIL DELIVERY.
A New Route to Be Established From Bel
fast April 1st.

A New Route to Be Established From Bel
fast April LIST.
Postmaster Frank L. Field has received
orders from the department establishing
Belfast Rural Free Delivery No. 2, to be
established April 1st. This, with the re-
arrangement of r. F. D. No. l, comprised
in the same order, and the present service
by the star routes, gives the rural patrons
of the Belfast post office excellent mail
facilities.
The route of R. F. d. No. 1, P. S. Staples
carrier, as amended, will be as follows :
leave Belfast post Office at 1890 a. M, or on
arrival of the morning mail train; north
east across the lower bridge to Billings
corner, miles; north to Swanville post
office, where a closed pouch will be left, II
miles; northwest to Swanville town house,
l. miles; northwest to Beal's corner, II
miles; southwest to Roberts corner, Ct
miles; southeast, past Shorey's corner, the
Grange Hall and F. A. Holmes (Gurney's)
Mills to Belfast, 7s miles; total 235 miles,
r. F. d. No. 2, II. A. Applin carrier, will
be as follows: leave Belfast post office at
1890 a. m., or on arrival of the morning
mail train; north to the upper bridge, II
miles; east across the bridge and north over
the new road past the Oak Hill road to
YOung's corner in Swanville, 81 miles
south around the Pond to Swanville post
office where a closed pouch will be taken, 3
miles; south to Webber's corner, q miles
southwest to Board Landing schoolhouse,
q miles; south to upper bridge, mile east
and southeast through the Robbins road to
Curtis corner, mile; west across the lower
bridge to Belfast post office, I mile; total
2Oa miles; area II square miles; number of
houses, 100; number of persons served, 400
The new route No. and the change of
No l, will cause the discontinuance of Star
route No. 1874, between Belfast and Swan
vile. In the olden time the line was be-
tween Belfast and Ellsworth, via Swan
willie, North Searsport, Frankfort and Pros
pect Ferry to Bucksport. Subsequent
changes reduced it first by making the ter
minus of the Belfast end at Frankfort then
to North SearspOrt, and year ago, at Swan
vile. BY the present arrangement the
stage leaves Swanville at 935 a. m and
arrives in Belfast at 11.15; leaves Belfast at
LIS and arrives in Swanville at 355. By
the new arrangement Swanville post office
will receive the mail from Belfast, and the
west by morning train through r. F. D.
No. l, at about / p. M, and send out
mail by r. F. d. No. 2 at about $50 p m.
The star routes deliver mail at houses
where proper boxes are provided, the same
as the R. F. d. routes, along the roads trav-
eled to within one mile of the post offices.
Routes out of Belfast cover nearly all the
roads leading out of the city, as follows:
Camden stage, shore road to East North
port
Centre Lincolnville stage, via, Pitchers
Pond road to Grange
Liberty stage, Searsmont route to Centre
Belmont.
Liberty stage, North Searsmont route to
Belmont Corner.
East Knox stage, formerly the Freedom
route, to Poor's Mills.
Stockton Springs stage, shore road to
Searsport village.

The Electric Power Station in Benton.

Mr.. A. F. Gerald of Fairfield has nearly
completed one of the greatest enterprises
he has yet undertaken. This is new elec.
trio development on the Sebastcook river
between Benton and Clinton. The dam
built is over 300 feet long and twelve feet
high. The canal is 200 feet long, and this
power. The greater portion Of the work on
this development is now done. They are
setting the wheels and the entire plant will
be in running order by the first of May.
The power developed is 1900 horse, and this
will be utilized in various ways. The elec-
