Of city nffoirs. This condition of things
means that every Republican vote is

Advertise the Scenery.
portland Adyertiser.)


To those who have been afraid that
Names exhibit at the worlds fair
would give more attention to scenery
than to manufacturers and agriculture.
the recent announcement that Colorado
| will make a special feature of its scenic
exhibition at st. Louis ought to be
worth thinking about. Colorado is a
great state and it certainly has within
it's borders some great industries. Its
mines and it's agriculture are capable
of being developed far beyond what
has yet been attempted and still the
people of that great western state be-
lieve that it is worth while to try to at
tract visitors for other purposes than
mining and farming. 1t wants the
tourist as well as the investor, the
traveller as we'll as the settler. And
so does Maine. We shall do well there
fore if at ST. Louis we so present the at
fractions of the Pine Tree State that in
future years an increased number of
visitors will come to stay with us even
for a season.
And yet there is surely a great deal
of reason on the side of those who ar
que that we need to interest outsiders
in our practical resources and to en-
courage people to come here for pur-
poses of building up our manufactures
and becoming interested in our agri-
culture. While we want the summer
visitors we do want permanent resi-
dents. And we have the goods to show
them if they will take the interest to
come and see them. The point of the
whole controversy is that the interests
of the state should not be at war but
should be working comparatively. In
stead of quarreling with each other the
agriculturists and the manufacturers
should be working hand in hand with
exploiters of Names beauties and the
men who are interested in the state as
d summer playground. There is plenty
of room for the worker, the capitalist
and the pleasure seeker. And all are
welcome,

Here is 4 story relating to a Briton.
told by one of the desk clerks at the
Waldorf hotel in New York:
An Englishman, recently a guest
here for several days, saluted me
pleasantly at the desk the morning
after his arrival and asked how I was.
I replied on the spur of the moment,
that l felt out of sight The English
man. who was a great dude, didn't
quite comprehend that lingo, but new
ertheless he thought it pretty good
when 1 explained to him what il
meant. Well, next morning he stopped
at the desk again on his way to the
breakfast room. and saluted affably,
and when I asked after his health he
replied, little hestatingly, evidently
recalling my remark of the previous
morning:
law. By jove. I really feel as though
you cawnt see me, y'know.'"

The Protection of Augustus Elms.

For the past two or three summers
the pest known as the inch worm has
devastated many of the beautiful elm
trees of our city. 1t is now the proper
, season of the year TO avert the danger
OF. any such destruction during the
| corning summer. To have these beau
tiful shade trees stripped of their
leaves is not only great injury to the
appo arance of the city. but it saps the
vitality of the trees themselves. for
they cannot continue many years the
process Of putting forth two crops of
leaves each season. Every citizen
should set that the elms upon his lawn
are protected so that the worms Will
have no opportunity to climb the
trunks into the limbs.
Do not wait until spring is well adj

protection they need. for then it VIII

months. And not only the elm trees
but the naples and other trees which
are near the elms. for the worms can
easily get into the elms from those
near them. if the latter are not pro-

This is Il matter of no small import
