To the Editor Of The Amertcan:
In your issue Of May 10, my attention
has been called to the notice of Mr.. Brag-
don's withdrawal from the contest of leg
islatiSe nominee, and the charge OF over
confidence of his supporters, who failed
20 attend the caucus.
1t seems to me that the over-confidenee
was on his part, Tor know that he failed
to secure his delegates from lack Of pre-
liminary work. Iwill cite one instance
In one small district two Voters who voted
for the Doyle delegates would have voted
for him had he asked them, but he did
not and Mr.. Doyle did. In this same dis
trict two others would have voted for him
IL he only had furnished them convey
ance to the polls. In this instance alone
MIR. Bragdon lost four votes that would
have given his delegates sixty-four votes
to sixty for Doyle.
think that it is only fair TO place the
blame where it belongs. c. f. BUTLER.

Hermitage burned .

Frank c. Nash, of cherryfcld, " hen he
went to the Hermitage at Spring River
lake last week, was surprised to find the
camp burned to the ground with all its
contents. The Hermitage was one Of the
best known camps in the Cherryield
section and was always open TO all for
their use. Hundreds have enjoyed its
hospitality. For several years the build
ing has been misused more or less hv evil
disposed persons, and now the evil work
has been completed by burning the

To the Editor Of The american:
desire through your paper to announce
to the republican voters of Hancock
county, that will be a candidate for the
nomination for sheriff at the county con-
vention.
realize that this is a late hour to make
this announcement, but have been urged
to do so by friends who think the situa-
tion iustifes it.
appreciate the fact that the issue in
the shrievslty contest this year will be on
the question of enforcing the prohibitory
law, and that the voters have the right to
demand where a would-be candidate
stands on this question. In regard to this
/ wish to say that II elected will use my
best endeavor TO execute the law as To-. the
sale OF intoxicating liquor.
will appreciate any support which my
friends throughout the county see ct to
give me. EDWARD X. HOPKINS.

been incorporated in it, and the sus-

To about twenty-five officers and
men Of the Merchant Marine league OF
the United States who called upon him
last week, President Roosevelt ex-
pressed himself as heartily in favor OF
the ship subsidy bill now pending in
the House. The measure has passed
the Senate. He was confident, he said,
that the legislation now before the
House would go far toward beginning
the proper building up of merchant

THANKL I. LEss |; JOB
Is That Of Volunteer Organizer and
the Labor Editor.
GET LITTLE CONSIDERATION
For What They Do in the Interest
of Their Fellow Workers,
But Such is Life.

Ii labor paper editor or vol
unteer organizer for labor were to
be paid a regular salary for eight
hours work and price and one-half
tor'all overtime, including double
price for Sundays, he would have
enough of this worlds goods in a
few years to make him comfortable
the remainder of his days.-Ex.
Would he? Sure he would, but
that time will never como.
No matter how much time and
thought an editor devotes to max
ing labor paper reliable and fair
the to employers as well as en-
ployes, there seldom appears an
issue of any labor paper that the
editor is not damned by some one
for some article, while no matter
how many good articles he writes
he is seldom praised. And were
all his subscribers to pay up
promptly, he would think that the
world was coming to an end.
AS to volunteer organizers, they
sometimes devote ten to twenty
evenings to form an organization,
and then when the organization is
in full running order the Inter-
national Union issuing the charter
will send check for the princely
amount of five dollars-which in
many cases he donates on the char
ter fee to get the organization to
going-with a request that he at
tend the meetings of the local for
three or four months to instruct
the members.
1t is a peculiar situation that an
organizer who tries to teach others
how to secure good wages and
short hours, must himself work ex-
tremely long hours for practically
nothing.
And the same conditions apply
to the organization committees of
Central bodies, only more so, as
they get nothing but criticism.
Such is life to the earnest worker
in the labor movement. And these
are the people the plutocratic press
term as "agitators.n
