The Average Man.
". D. Nesbit. in Chicago Tribune.

The average man is the man of the mill.
The man of the valley, or man OF the hill,
The man at the throttle the man at the pow.
The man with the sweat of toll on his brow,
Who brings into being the dreams OF thefr
Who works for himself, for me- and Tor you,
There liz not n purpose, project or plan
But rests on the strength of the average man.
The growth of a city, the might OF a land,
Depend on the fruit of the toll OF his hand,
The road or the wall, or mill, or the mart,
Call daily to him that he furnish his part
The pride of the great. the hope of the low,
The toll OF the tide as it Gibbs to and fro,
The reach of the rails, the countries they span
Tell what is the trust in the average man.
The mau who, perchance. thinks he labors
The maj: who stands out between hovel and
throne
The man who gives freely his brain and his
Drawn
Is the man that the world has been bnilded
upon.
The claug of the hammer, the sweep of the
saw,
The flash OF the forge-they have strengthen
ed the law.
They have built the realms that the wars
oyerran,
They have shownus the worth of the avera ge
man.
So here's to the average man-to the one
Who has Iabored unknown on the tasks he's
done
Who has met as they came all the problems
of life,
Who has helped us to win in the stress and
the strife.
He has bent to his toll, thinking neither OF
tame
Nor Of trouble. nor honor. nor prize nor ac-
claim
In the forefront of progress, since progress
began
Here's IL health and n hail to the average
man.

KENNEbEC COUNTY FINANCES,
The County Commissioners Call the Turn on
Democratic Fa|sehoods.

There has recently appeared in the New Age and Waterve
Sentinel in display type very remarkable statements or
rather msstae1ens in relation the finances of Kennebec
county.
The statement made that three ago the county had
surplus OF $4,000 This is without foundation of fact
the county had no such surplus 1903, has had
January l. 1908 the county had surplus of $16SIo96
shown by the report published at that time
January 1885, the liabilities of the county over and above
resources were S33o93 January 1906 the
county S5o than the liabilities showing net gain
in thirteen years OF nearly And well known large
amounts have been expended during the time referred
to in making improvements county buildings
Prediction is confidently made the above named articles
that the county tax for year will nearer S7oooo and
is SO stated to give the impression that will be $4,000
nearly that This is entirely erroneous and no
present facts figures support the statement
The tax for 1905 round numbers, $8ooo during
that year the county made net gain of $780,
Great stress laid the fact that the county made tenn
porary loans this year. Any all familiar with the facts
knows that this and other counties have make temporary loans
every year unless they have large surplus treasury
The county tax is due, oneha the day of September
and the remainder the first day of January following its
assessment.
Twotirts Of the has expired before first dollar of
the tax becomes due and the entire year the second
installnlent is due.
AS the bills and expenses the county should be and are paid
as they become due during the year, the necessity making
temporary loans must be entirely apparent giving the
matter thought 1t the thing done every year
by every municipality in the country Gin anticipation taxes
The expense Of the Cooper trial. amounting ST sooo
is presumably the principal argument which any one would
attempt to make support Of the claim the county tax
must be largely increased; and while this large expenditure
must be met but for which the administration responsible
it does not necessarily follow increase in taxation must
be made for that purpose AS shown above the county on
the tax made gain of $1,000 for the wear
1906 should the relative receipts and expenditures for 1905
aside from the Cooper differ materially from those of
the preceding be that of this
special expense would be of from the receipts of the
present and it would then be safe assume that the
remainder could be paid from for 1907 and 1908 with
out increasing the for those years.
We hereby certify that the foregoing statements are correct
