of the rising industries and opportuni-
ties for investment, but, as private
citizen and one who was found to he
worthy Of the common trust he was
once than once elected to public offices
of responsibility. the last of which was
that of mayor, which he held in 1855 and

leaders He was a member Of the Maine
House of Representatives in 1S76-T and
in 1884. He was, as has been said, mayor
of the city in 1859 and 1890 and served

ACTION FOR TREsPAss.
SUIT for Damage to a Colt, Friahtene
by An Automobile,

Suit has been brought by Ernest A.
Nelson or Canaan, against Horace A
Bennett or Newton, Mass, the action be-
ing trespass. The plaintiff claims that
the DEFENDANT was riding by in his auto
mobile when a colt, belonging to plain
till. was frightened and ran out into the
road ahead of the machine, and that the
defendant chased the colt for q distance
Of two and one-half miles at a rapid
gait. The colt was injured, and the
plaintiff sets his damages at $500 This
IS alleged to have happened on Aug. 8.
Gould 4 Lawrence are bringing the suit
for the plaintiff.
Whatever the merits Of this particular
case, the 1act remains that righteous
Indignation against automobilists has
not been an uncommon thing among the
farming population in this locality this
summer There are many farmers who
do not dare drive some one or more of
their horses on the public highway for
fear Of meeting an automobile and hay-
ing a runaway accident. And still more
deplorable is the fact that large num-
Der Of farmers wives who would como
into town with produce or to do shop
ping, are practically absolutely prevent
ed from doing until some of the men
folks can come with them. BY pre-
vented is meant that their fear of meet
ing some careless automobilist, who will
not stop his machine until the team has
been overturned. is so great that they
will not venture forth.
No up-to-date farmer doubts that the
automobile has come to stay. nor expects
that his protests will keep owners of
these machines from navigating the pub
lie roads: but he does demand that his
own rights be recognized and that the
existing state of things be remedied by
the use of more care and greater pre-
caution on the part of some automo-
bilists K is safe 10 say that a majority
of automobile owners are careful and
mindful of the rights of other occupants
of the road. but it is equally certain that
the blame will be placed upon THE just
as well as the unjust as long as the
few continue To be negligent

THE COMING RACES.
Everything Ready for Fine Program on
Friday and Saturday.

Colonel Morrill, was aule, "Wednesday.
to state publicly that his races would be
held on Friday and Saturday Of this
week, the weather permitting, as the
track would not possibly be ready be
fore that time. BY the rules of the Ma
tfonal Association, of which the colonel
is n member, the races could not he set
ahead for more than one day at a time.
and this Is what the colonel has been
doing during the time of the INDIGESTION.
Colonel Morrill, has been peculiarly I'M
fortunate in having to experience I'M
favorable weather conditions during his
first attempt TO start races here in Wa
terville. He has had thus far the hearty
and grateful sympathy of every public
spirited citizen OF this and surrounding
communities, who realize that they have
been immensely favored by this great at
traction of which Waterville has been
made the attractive center.
The colonel appreciates the good will
which has been shown him, and init
mated, in previous interview with the
journal, that he could not have wished
for more cordial treatment AS long az
the good will Is mutual, and inasmuch
has strengthened these views exceed
ingly, 1t IS safe to again predict that
Waterville is about to realize the great
est public event in the way Of a horse
exhibition which has ever been held
within these borders.
The mere postponement of tho races
is not expected TO materially affect the
results in the least In fact the colonel
expressly said that all but two of the
20 or ~ horsemen have been perfectly
satisfied to wait: they are enjoying them
selves here and have no future RESPONSE
biliues on their minds which are neces-
sarliy worrying them at present The
latter part OF the week will be fully more
favorable. as being better suited to the
pupllc convenience than would have been

The first green corn is appearing in
the Gardiner retail markets and it is
said TO be over a quality of excellence.
Mr.. Eastman of the canning factory
told the Journal, last evening, that he
anticipates that all of tn" acreage con-
trolled by tho company will be pro-
ductive of satisfactory results. and it is
not believed that the rains of this week
will seriously interfere with the corn
crop in this vicinity. Mr.. Eastman said
that the output Of the factory on this,
the initial season, would be nearly 300
600 cans of corn.
