A GREAT CONVENIENCE.

Indeed It Was, This Telephone - for the Neighbors.
 "Yes," he said to the friend who was enjoying a cigar with him in the library, "Tve had telephone put in.
 Its a great convenience, isn't It."
 "Oh, very great convenience"
 Just then the telephone bell rang and he went to see what was wanted. Presently his head appeared in the H. Lrary doorway.
 Excuse me moment" he said. i've got to run next door and tell Mrs. Brown that someone wants to speak to her. In her pride over the possession of telephone my wife fool ishly told the Browns to use 1t when. ever they wished, and they've told all their friends"
 He came back with Mrs. Brown, who devoted several minutes to telling some one at the other end of the line that she was "so sorry baby had cough"
 Nevertheless" he said, when Mrs. Brown had departed, "it is a great con- venience. Pardon me! There it goes again."
 A minute or two later he glanced into the room again to say, "Got to run over and tell Mrs. Jones that her husband can't get home to dinner. Be right back"
 He came back accompanied by a man who wanted to call up somebody at the club to tell him he couldn't be over that evening.
 "Say!" said the man when he was through, "my friend isn't there yet, but 1 left message for him. If he calls up later, will you be good enough to run over and let me know what he says?"
 "Sure."
 Just then child appeared at the door with a piece of paper in her hand.
 Mammals dressing to go out, and can't come herself" she explained, "so she wanted to know If you wouldn't please call up Jensen's grocery and tell them to send up the things on this list the first thing in the morning."
 When this was done the host made himself comfortable in the library again.
 "As was saying" he remarked, "thc telephone is a great convenience-fo the neighbors."

Debt reducing and Tax-redueins
Administration.

The Waterville Sentinel questions the
Hills administration has been one of
tax reduction, although it is forced to
admit that the past eighteen months
alone have witnessed reduction OF
$500, 900 in the bonded debt of the State
"a pretty fair showing in itself. we
don't know just what the Sentinefs
conception OF tax-reduction may be;
but when half the towns of our state
are receiving more money from the
State treasury for school fund than they
pay into it in taxes it strikes us as
very practical form of tax reduction,
and one that will appeal with consid-
cradle force to the average citizen. IL
must be remembered, too. that the
same Republican policies that have
operated to relieve one half the towns
of the State from all the burdens OF
State taxation. have reduced In the
same proportion the amount contribut-
ed by the remaining cities and towns of
Maine to the support of the State gov
ernment.
When the Sentinel tries to wink out
of sight facts like these, 1t has UNDER
taken an exceedingly big contract.
Denying facts like these. will not dis
pose of them, neither will it deceive
the people. Again we repeat. the
splendid administration of Governor
Hill has been one of debt reduction and
tax reduction.

Judge Parker's Telegram. 2

In his recent speech as temporary
cha irman of the Iowa Republican state
convention, Congressman Hepburn
called attention to the fact that Judge
Parker had the proposed Democratic
platform-silent on the money question
before him nearly a day prior to his
nomination, and that he had given no
indication that it was unsatisfactory
Suddenly" said the colonel, "a1ter
his nomination was an assured fact'
assured by a majority Of more than
two-thir,is, assured by the fact that
the party was so beset with contentious
and dissensions that no other result
than his candidacy was possible, SUI
denly he awoke to the fact that the
Democratic platform on this supJec'
was not an expression Of Democratic
principles and policy, and by simple
telegram put the convention INTO SUCH
an attitude that it was compelled ~
declare itself as having nominated
candidate whose conduct would De eii-
tircly agreeable to them. and In har-
mony with their wishes. should ne pun
sue the extreme Republican view en-
tertained now and four years ago NY
the Republican party"
1t must not be supposed for mo-
ment, however. that Republicans are
alone in criticising this sharp pfactice
on the part of Judge Parker. hon.
John T. Board one of the delegates at
large to the St. Louis convention from
the state of Florida. says:
..The money question was discussed
before the committee on platform for
over fifty hours. Judge Parker was
fully advised of differences and of re-
suits through the press dispatches. il
not by his personal representatives, but
he was as silent as a clam until the
nomination was made. Had Judge
Parker sent his telegram to the COM
mittee or even to the convention before
the nomination it would have been as
brave and honest a course as that pur-
sued by Bryan in 1900. But Judge
Parker waited for hours after he had
been nominated and he and his friends
felt that the action of the convention
could not be undone before he declared
his position on the money question. 1t
was a shameless trick, but the very
men who condemned Mr.. Bryan in 1900
as dictator when he gave to the COM
mittee and the convention every Oppor-
tunity by timely notification of his
position. now laud Judge Parker. who,
by his untimely notification and tor
tuous action, gave the committee no
chance and the convention but little"
No wonder that Mr.. Beard-strong
Democrat though he is-feels justified
in asserting that Hill and Parker "can-
not be too strongly condemned for the
undetermined course pursued by them
in this affair.

IL Mr.. Bryan would only incorporate
clause in his new Socialistic declara-

ton, however, that Republican pros
perity has brought beefsteaks within
