The Mild Season at Valley Forge

Washington was spending the
winter at Valley Forge.
"Cheer up, men" he cried to
the troops. This Is nothing to the
old fashioned winter of 1904"
Thus, with tar seeing sagacity,
he once again rallied the patriotic
host.

FRANK 3. HOWE, Editor and Publisher

After reading the letter in another
column from members of the Bradford
Hook & Ladder company, we cannot
see as there is any important differ
ence of opinion between the Banner
and its friends of the company. They
agree entirely to the only point under
contention, which is that the street
commissioner should have entire
charge of the street work so that the
people may know whom to blame for
' ling that 60 wrong and whom to az
plaud for things we'll done. The NOM
bers Of the company have a right to
insist on having a skilled and compet-
ent driver for their truck and this
right we have never heard disputed
The editor of the Banner is certainly
not prejudiced against Mr. Dunn, as
he never met him. We were not even
aware that he drove the fire truck un-
til within few days. Further than
tlat the first we ever heard OF his dut-
les IN plowlnB Ihe walks was after we
criticised the street department on
election day for its failure to open the
walks in decent season, when
friend of Mr. Stewart declared that the
fault was Mr. Dunn's. Since then we
have been urging some system where
by the public would know who was re-
sponsible for manifest faults. For in
stance the letter printed today says
that on election day. Mr. Dunn's walks
were all plowed before 1880 This
alone is admission enough of all the
Banner has claimed of the laxity of
the street department in this work and
shows need OF responsibility being
fixed SO that the public can know whom
to criticise,

Will Annihilate Maine Fisheries II
Government Doesn't Help
Kill It.

Fish Warden N. ]. Hanna, Of Rock
land, has the following to say, according
to the Portland Press, relative to gov
eminent bounty on dogish;
There is no doubt but that for five
years these scavengers Of the sea have
wrought more damage to our fishing in
dustry than In a quarter of a century
They swarm every bay and even pene-
trate our rivers. They came into Cape
Cod by the million five years ago and
now Names fishing industry is at their
mercy. Years ago they came only about
a month or six weeks each year from
August to September and at the first
northerly wind they disappeared, but
now they are with us about all the year.
What are known as the whip lash
dogfish are our scourge-a small, vora-
cious fish that feeds on every other fish
that is not its master A species of the
shark, the large one, will attack man.
remember % years ago boy fell over
board OF Monhegan and before he was
rescued he was literally torn to pieces,
the water surrounding being covered
with blood.
They are not a menace to the lobster,
as claimed. A dogflsh has to turn upon
its back TO bite, and the lobster being
bottom Of the sea shell fish has ample
protection in his location. There should
by all means be a government bounty Of
five cents apiece or over for these dog
fish. If something is not done there will
be in time humiliation of one of Names
greatest industries-her fisheries"

NORTHERN
SECURITIES
New Plan Put Forward for Or
ganization with Reduced
Stock.

NEW YORK, March 23.--Following
a day of great excitement in the stock
market and numerous conferences
among the leading financial interests,
the new plan Of the Northern Securi
ties company has been made public
In substance 1t provides for a stock
dividend of 80 per cent, this to be eff
fected by a reduction of that amount
in the capital stock of the Securities
company.
For every share of Northern Securi-
ties stock surrendered the company
will deliver 1927 stock of the North
ern Pacific Railway company and
$30.17 of the Great Northern Railway
company. The shares of the Northern
Pacific company which were taken
over by Northern Securities at 10 and
those of Great Northern at $50 will be
distributed on this basis.
The other assets of the Securities
company, consisting chiefly of its Chi
cage, Burlington and Quincy holdings
and Northern Pacific coal lands, will
remain in the treasury Of the company
until some plan for their distribution
has been evolved.
Official notice of a new plan, which
is signed by President Hill under this
date, was sent to Northern Securities
stockholders in circular letter, which
says in part:
THE company's acquisition of North
ern Pacific and Great Northern shares
was made in the full belief that such
purchases were in nowise obnoxious to
any law of the United States, an opin-
ion which has received the approval
of four Justices OF the supreme court
Of the United States-namely. Chief
Justice Fuller and Associate Justices
Edward ID. White, Rufus w. Peckham
and Oliver Wendell Holmes-in the
suit brought by the United States
against the right of the company to
hold and vote the shares However
the majority of the court. disregarding
as irrelevant any beneficial increase of
commerce, was of the opinion that as
a matter OF law your company's hold
ings of the stocks of the two railway
companies in itself constituted a re-
straint of interstate commerce pro
hibited by the so called Sherman act
of 1890. Accordingly the railway COM
panies have been forbidden TO permit
your company TO vote or to collect
dividends on the shares held by it.
Therefore your directors at a meet
ing have, under the advice of counsel,
decided that in order to fully and
promptly comply with the decree in
this suit It is necessary to reduce the
capital stock Of the company and to
distribute TO its shareholders the
shares Of stock Of said railway com
panies now held by It,
''To this end they have adopted res
olutiOns recommending to the stock |
holders:
"First.-That the capital stock OF |
this company be reduced from 1854 |
900 shares, now outstanding. to 80 |
$40, being n reduction Of 90 per cent.
''Second.-That said 90 per cent of |
the present outstanding shares be call
ed In for surrender and cancellation.
'Third.-ThSt against each share of
the stock Of this company so TO be sur
rendered there will be delivered 1927 |
stock OF the Northern Pacific Railway
company, S30.1T stock Of the Great
Northern Railway company and pro-
portionate amounts thereof for each |
fraction of share OF stock"
