He Stands for Honest, Rigid and Uniform
Enforcement of the Maine Law.
At the request of the officers of the Civic
League, who state that they acted without
Mr.. Cobb's knowledge, the Kennebec Jour
nal published May 18th correspondence
which occurred a month ago between Rev.
c. E. Owen, Secretary of the League, and
the ROckland candidate. Mr.. Cobb states
that his reason for not making public an
nouncement on the question of prohibition
was because he did not believe it proper to
single out one law and declare for its en-
fOrcement.
"As to the question itself, however," he
declares, II have decided views. I have
been total abstainer all my life, and am
one now. l believe that every citizen of
the State should stand for and insist upon
an honest, rigid and uniform enforcement
of the law, and any influence may possess
now OR hereafter will be exerted to that
end"
He expressed the belief that the Repub-
lican State convention will adopt plank
in its platform declaring without evasion in
the slightest degree for the continuance of
the prohibitory laws and for their enforce
ment "The Republican party" he adds,
''may never realize its ideals, but it must
always have them, and it must steadily
strive to attain them"
Replying to Mr.. Cobb, Mr.. Owen declares
his position with reference to the retention
and enforcement of the prohibitory law en-
tlrely satisfactory.

rather as lover of music. Music, he said
is the language of the emotions. 1t is uni.
versal in its nature. There is great dif.
ference in individuals as to their ability to
interpret music, in its power, over the soul.
Music speaks all of the emotions, it inspires
love and patriotism, sweetens the cup of
bitterness. nerves the arm of the patriot
and the toiler. Its influence is felt in all
the higher aspirations, spiritual, moral,
mental and physical. A lack of harmony
In one of these affects all. Music restores
this harmony. David played before Saul
to restore this harmony. Browning showed
the influence of music up through all the
forms of animal life, from the lowest to
man in his highest development. The
music Of nation or an age is an index to
its development. Music, painting, poetry
and sculpture are the arts of tone, color,
words and form. Music rises above all the
others in that it covers the whole of life,
even to the ends Of possibility. There is a
close connection between music and moral
ity. Music is good bad according to the
emotions of the composer, the performer
or the hearer. Like all other blessings it
may be debased to ignoble ends, but its
mission is the bettering of mankind.
The paraphrase ''Nearer My God to
Thee," arranged by Reeves, was given by

quartette with band accompaniment, and
the second and succeeding stanzas by the
quartette, chorus and congregation, accom-
panied by the band. Benediction was pro-
nounced by Rev. J. W. Hatch. The postlude
was the Fest March from Tannhauser, by
Wagner, by the band.

Barnes Locked Up Again.

William D. Barnes days of liberty were
short. At the meeting Of the governor and
executive council on April 25th, last, the
ease of Barnes, who was then confined in
the insane ward OF the Maine State prison,
at Thomaston, was taken up. Barnes was
committed to the insane ward about 10
years ago and had remained there ever
since He was arrested for being tramp,
SO that he had served much longer term
in prison than his offense warranted. He
was said to be perfectly sane and desirous
of securing his liberty. The council passed
an order for his release and the order was
obeyed. The Journal has told of his re-
turn to Unity, where he was far from well
come, and of his jumping from the train.
May 1lth the town officials of Unity took
Barnes to Augusta and committed him to
the insane hospital as an insane person not
fit to be at large.

The present summer has shown the sugar beet to be of even more import ance to this valley than was formerly supposed, and there are many who now believe it's culture should become general, even if sugarfactory should never be built. The sugar beet has Teen pronounced by the best author ities as being the finest sort of feed for cattle, and it has been demonstra- ted during the present summer that the beets can be grown here with much less water than was supposed. In fact il is believed that on land adapted to their culture a profitable feed crop can be raised without any irrigation. Phoenix Republican.
