ster considerable worry
He was not 10 be caught. however.
With one hand he piled the whip while
with the other he cut the strings OF the
bags letting the potatoes pour ont

With his team thus relieved Of most

In Houlton District.

Many OF these people think 1t rather
clever TO sneak a pound Of tea or bit
OF cloth across the New Brunswick Dor
der into Maine. and il is a common prac-
tice for travellers TO bring over pairs Of
gloves and bottles of liquor TO friends on
this side
There is, in unfrequented regions
along the line. a considerable amount
OF smuggling on a substantial scale.
chiefly i'm liquors, agricultural products.
and imported cloths.
There is no region where the SNUG
gler has better field for his operations
than In the HOultOn district.
The territory 10 be covered by the in
spectors in this district is 800 miles long.
beginning few miles south of Houlton
and extending To Seven Islands, at the
extreme northern point of Maine.
On the Canadian side within two or
three miles OF the Maine line. a railroad
skirts the border. connecting the i'm
portant points in the provinces of Que
bee and Ontario with the cities and
towns OF the maritime provinces.
BY means OF the railroad il * easy TO
bring goods to any point along the line
indicated by the smugglers. and il is

Editor Lafayette Advertiser.
Will you kindly insert in your
paper the following: The Lafa-
yette Gazette of Saturday, July
80. has an article entitled "A
Regrettable Occurrence" in
which it seems to blame last
Thursdays disturbance at the
ball grounds to the base ball
boys. The fact of the matter is
that said unpleasantness was
caused by outsiders, and we
trust that the public will exon
crate us from all rOwdyism.

The time-worn injunction, "Nerve
put of It'll tomorrow what you can
do to-day" is now generally pre-
scented in this form: "DO it to-day"
That is the terse advice We want to
give you about that hacking cough or
demoralizing cold with which you
have been struggling for several days,
perhaps weeks. Take some reliable
remedy for it TO-DAY-and let that
remedy be DR.. Boschee's German
Syrup, which has been in use for over
thirty-fve years. A few doses of it
will undoubtedly relieve your cough
or cold, and its continued use for q
few days will cure you completely.
No matter how deep-seated your
cough, even if dread consumption has
attacked your lungs, German Syrup
will surely effect a cure-as it has
done before in thousands of APP
parently hopeless cases of lung
trouble. New trial bottles, 25c: regu-

A Democratic DUTY

Greenville, Tex, Banner,
The following paragraph from
The Philadelphia Record is
worthy of consideration:
A Democratic victory would be
about as important to the Re-
publican party as to the country.
and the Republican leaders,
chained to the wheels of the red
and gold band wagon which Mr..
Roosevelt thinks is a chariot, are
conscious of the fact. Never did
the democratic party have so
capital a chance to carry the
election as it has this year:
There is not a shadow of doubt
in our opinion about the fact that
many of the best and strongest
men in the Republican party are
not pleased with Roosevelt.
They not only distrust him but
fear him. They fear him for
what he is and for what he may
do, for they know that he is one
OF the most reckless and un-
balanced presidents the country
ever had. Patriotic Republicans
have real fears for the welfare of
the government if he gets a full
term by election. He would then
feel himself the choice of the
country and would give full and
free rein to his erratic impulses.
Nor is that all, for he would
not only treat the Office as his
personal property, which he
does now to a great extent, but
would SO entrench himself, and
build up such a machine that he
would either hold the Office for
another term or nominate a man
of his own selection and of his
OWE kind. That the best men in
the party see and dread the
danger is beyond doubt, but for
the present they are helpless.
If they had tried to secure the
nomination of another they
would have failed, and if they
had succeeded it would have
meant the disruption of the
party. They have him, or he
has them. and they cannot shake
him of, except by joining in with
the democrats to ensure his
defeat. Anomalous as it may
FAeem, the defeat of Roosevelt
would. in our judgment, be bet
ter for the Republican party
than his election would. If de-
feated they would be rid of him
for all time to come, but if he is
elected this time, they are likely
to have him on them for at least
eight years, and We have no
assurance that he would even

Rooseveit's Speech Of Acceptance.
Times-D Democrat.
President Roosevelt was yes.
terdav officially informed of his
nomination for President by the
Republican convention, and ac-
cepted the nomination in q
speech, which we give elsewhere.
It is moderate in length and
generally moderate in language
and tone and not at all in the
usual Rooseveltian style. It is
rather in the form of q stump
speech directed against the
Democrats than an acceptance
of the principles enunciated by
the Republican party at Chicago,
for Mr.. Roosevelt gives more
attention to the Democratic than
to the Republican platform. On
the latter he promises more
hereafter in his formal letter of
acceptance, the speech being
merely . preliminary review Of
the situation. For his views on
the issues involved in the cam
paign We must wait for the letter
OF acceptance, which, judging
from his promise, is to cover all
points fully. It is well that Mr..
sR0osevelt should do SO, for his
speech must be unsatisfactory
even 10 the most stalwart Re.
publican, in that he positively
refuses 70 commit himself to any
promise for the future. 1t
would be eminently unwise." he
