MAINE EDITORIAL COMMENT.
A Word for Mere Man.
(Bangor NeWS.)

Above all else, every mar in Maine
should extend kind thanks to the club
women who met in Houlton for refrain
ing to abuse all male members of the
human race. Men have borne many
burdens. They have earned very much
money for the purpose Of imparting
happiness to women. Men have toiled
and fought and died for women in the
past. Furthermore. there are plenty Of
Maine men today who stand ready to
devote their every energy and their i'll
diridual lives for the purpose of ad-
vancine the happiness of wOinankind.
AS men. we do not consider that we
have done anything more than our
"bounden duty" when we have made
sacrifices for the opposite sex. But.
candIdly, we are growing tired of being
called "brutes" and Swine" and other
opprobrious names. We know our fail
inGs and crave forgiveness until we
can be given another trial. Is not that
enough? Is il fair or kind or woman
like to rub it into us all the time?
We think not. HeEce. we are very
thankful that the womans clubs in ses-
sion i'll Houlton withheld their con-
tempt for our sex. They We're very
sensible in discussing the liquor ques-
ton. They were abundantly kind In
emitting to prefer charges against the
male portion of the human race.

\ writer in the Springfield Repub!i-
,iiI discusses the project of another
transcontinental railroad. There are
nuvv five such lines within the United
states, and the Gould interests are en-
gagged in forming a sixth, which is TO
follow Il route between that of the
Union Pacific and the Santa Fe. Now
il Is announced that the great ST. Pau!
system is to extend it's northern line
into South Dakota. on through Monta-
M, to the northern Pacific coast-com-
ing very close to invading the territory
Of the Northern Pacific and Great
Northern. The st. Paul has had this
project in mind for some years, but the
formation of the Northern securities
combination seems to have caused it's
po5tponement. This multiplication OF
trdnscontinental railroad facilities
bears testimony in a striking way to
the great development of the Rocky
mountain and Pacific coast region. and
the brillancy of the industrial and
commercial future of those far west
EN- states.

Develop Maine.
portland ArSus.)

O
The State of Maine has immense re-
sources. natural resources that have
hardly begun to be developed. Indeed,
for our logging operations. for instance.
men have to be imported from Massa-
chusetts and even as tar as New York.
There is an immense field in Maine for
additional manufactures. There are
stfil large possibilities in the agricui-
tural development of the State. In
nurnberless directions there are oppor-
tunities right here at home waiting for
Maine business energy to develop them.
Maine has furnished too many up
builders CT other States already, to her
own detriment. She has invested too
much in the rOSeate projects of adver-
Using promoters of distant FL Dorados.
Investments which, as q rule have not
banned out as per prospectus. The
people of Maine have had some expert
ence in these matters and they have
learned something. The experience has
been costly but it has been worth while.
For one thing, it has induced them to
turn their attention to the Industrial
possibilities of their own good old State,
the opportunities that are here right
under their noses. There is work
enough here. work calling to be done.
profitable work. 1t isn't necessary to
so South Or West hunting after it.
And here tie industrial conditions are
known. as conditions i'll the South are
not. The South has it's industrial
problems to solve. and they are not
light or easy of solution. Maine people
are not inclined to any aprrcciah I,. cy
tent. to take a hand in solving them
They can do better at home. And
meantime they have the advantage of
enjoying life in one of the choicest and
most delightful States in the Union. a
State endowed with attractions that
cannot be found in such abundance
elsewhere. In these days the State of
Maine is coming to her own, and the
siren song Of the outside promoter has
lost its power to charm

An indication of the growing trade
between the Pacific slope and the ORR
ent is found in the announcement that
the lumber mills on Puget sound in the

to figure on an order for 25,0OO,O00 feet
Of lumber for delivery in China. The
money involved will be some $3.50, coo.

appears in this connection that China
has become the greatest foreign con-
sumner Of Washington lumber and that
the "Chinese boycott" is not to be very
rigidly enforced.
