THREAT TO SLAUGHTER
MILLIONS is CHEERED

Moscow, April 27.-The congress Of
monarchists which has been in session,
has closed it's deliberations with the
adoption of series of extremely reac-
tionary resolutions declaring that the
new parliament is not representative Of
Russian public opinion and pronouncing
itself against the autonomy Of Poland
and the annulment Of the privileges of
the Germans in the Baltic provinces.
The congress further declared itself
in favor Of the abolition Of the priv
ileges granted to the Firms and Of treat
ing Jews as foreigners and excluding
them from all rights, such as the pur.
chase or renting Of lands or education
in the middle schools or universities.
The proceedings closed with speech
by Professor Nicholsky, a noted reac
tfonary, in which, to the accompani
ment Of cheers, he prophesied coun
ter-revolutio1 to restore the old regime
which would cost the lives Of 100000
Jews and constitutional democrats.

The Democrat would suggest to the
people who do their shopping in Lew
istoWn that it it not always a good
idea to put off your Christmas buying
until the very last day or night before
the holiday. By doing some or all OF
your shopping several days ahead you
will probably be able to get better ser-
vice and will certainly confer a favor
on the merchants and shopkeepers. All
Of the LeWistown stores have made ar
rangements for extra help during the

creased orces, the stores have diff

Children's S Week.

Lewistown now has on the habilia.
ments of the glad holiday season.
In all of the stores are displayed
wares suggesting the gladstone days
of Santa Claus.
1t seems that the very people you
see on the streets are bginning to be-
come imbued with the Christmas
spirit the spirit of happiness, pleasur-
able anticipa ton, of kindness.
Mr.. Dooley,' in a recent article
which appeared in a popular publica-
ton, gave a most happy description OF
this holiday spirit
He says that for three hundred and
sixty four days of the year. we are all
enga ged in a great wrestling match,
pulling each others ears, gouging at
each others eyes and rolling each other
in the dust.
But along about the 24th day of
December, the Christmas spirit sud-
denly tells us to stop our little wrest-
ling game for as Mr.. Dooley" saws,
the children have come in
The chief significance and beauty of
the Christmas holiday lies in the fact
that it is essentially the childrens hol-
iday.

COUNTING THE VOTES AGAIN.

The right to count second time the
ballots cast in the recent State electlon
having been questioned, the following
article from the Kennebec journal Will
oe read with interest by many
Its understood that the second count
ing of the ballots in the Kennebec coun-
", cities and towns, which IS now uelhg
carried on in the presence of the inter
ested parties, is not recount III Inc
strict sense of the term. 1t IS rather
an inspection or examination. Inc re,
turns of the various city CLERKS ana
town clerks, as sent in to the office OF
the secretary of State, will be the oasis
upon which the certificates OF election
VIII be issued by the Governor ana
Council. Thus, if it appears on the
race OF these returns that MI Reardon
OF Oakland is elected senator by small
margin, certificate of election VIII De
given to him, and he will take his seat,
even though this later Inspection OF the
ballots makes it certain that MT. Hesel-
ton OF Gardiner was elected over MIN.
Each branch of the Legislature IS the
Judge of tie election of its own mem
bers, however, and upon the evidence
Delng presented to it that the flrsC re-
turns were not accurate, this BODY VIII
order an official recount OF the oallots.
IhlS Will bring to light the gam OF 70
votes for Mr.. Heselton over MI. Rear
don IN Waterville, as shown by the In
ofrmal inspection of the ballots Dy the
candidates last Saturday, and MI. Rear
don VIII promptly be unseated ana MI:
Heselton seated in his stead. This will
be mere formality in order to comply
with the requirements OF the law, as
MI. Reardon, SO it is understood, read
lily grants that the first count in Water
Vile was incorrect and that his oppon-
ent has 26 votes more than he was cred
tied with. tits possible, OF course,
that in going over the ballots in the
various towns further changes will be
made here and there, but it appears
now that all three Republican senators
are safely reelected, though certiti-
cate of election will be granted Mr..
Reardon, Democrat, who will hold his
seat a brief period until an official re-
count of the votes is made.
The procedure in the case OF county
officers is different than in the case of
of the Legislature. If it ap-
pears from the informal inspection of
the ballots. which is now being made,
that the returns of the clerks are incor-
rect and that recount will change the
result, the interested candidate will |
petition the court that such recount /,
be made. This is something with which |
the Legislature has nothing to do, as it |
has in the case of its own members, but |
is matter for judicial proceedings. 1t |
is unfortunate that the vote should
have been so close in the county as to
leave doubt in the case of some of the
offices, but the spirit of fairness and CO.
operation which is being shown makes
it certain that the matter will be
Strengthened out as it should be, and
that those who received a plurality of
votes in every instance will have justice
shown them.

GOOD CROPS IN MAINE.
Apple Yield Only 35 Per Cent, But Corn
and Potatoes are Plentiful.

and Potatoes Plentiful.
Hon. A. W. Gilman, commissioner o
agriculture, has within the past few
weeks visited many sections of thu
State, during which time he has had {
good opportunity of becoming acquain
ted with the different crop conditions
and has secured an excellent idea Of
what the harvest of the State in the
different lines OF fruits and vegetables
will be. In speaking of the apple crop
he said that from what he had been
able to learn from observation, which
included visits to different orchards
and the displays at the various fairs
which have thus far been held, and
also from what he had been told by
fruit growers, the crop this year would
figure up about So per cent. Some estl-
mates were higher than that but he did
not think that the figure would be ex-
ceeded. The apple crop of 1905 was
only 80 per cent, and the coming crop
will no doubt be smaller
The potato crop, he said, was looking
favorable, and while conditions earlier
in the season did not give the growers
great deal of encouragement, the
weather for the past two months had
helped out great deal, and the potato
crop will be pretty good one after all.
1t will not be as large as that OF last
year in point of yield, but the increased
acreage will take care of the shortage,
and the number of potatoes raised i'll
the State this year will be larger than
for several years. According to the
estimates of the best authorities there
will be 100000 bushels more raised in
Aroostook county than there were last
year. Everyone is now digging pota-
toes and they are getting from 81 to
S11O at the station.
The crop of sweet corn is also going
to be good one. Earlier in the season,
owing to the weather conditions, every
thing seemed to point to failure in the
crop, but the frosts have held off, allow
ing the corn to come to maturity and
the crop is a good one. The corn crop
for the past few years has been poor,
but the hot weather of the latter part
of the summer was just what was need
ed, and while the crop will not be large
according to acreage the increase in the
acreage will make the crop good one.
Mr.. Gilman said that one thing which
he had noticed in his recent travels,
was that there were more fields ploWed
and narrowed, and ready for the com
ing crops than he ever had seen before,
which was an interesting evidence of
the progressiveness of the Maine farm
er.
Another thing that he noticed was
the presence of an unusual number of
insect pests this year, and on fruit trees
which had been set out this year the
fight to keep off these pests was hard
one. The weather had been conducive
to the breeding of these pests, and the
result mad been an unusual increase i'll
numbers.

TURBINES FOR THE GOV. COBB.
The New Steamer for the Bangor Divisio
Eastern Steamship Co.

The New Steamer for the Bangor Division
Eastern Steamship Co.
There was successfully completed at
the works of the W. & \. Fletcf er Co.,
in Hoboken last week the installation
of the first Parsons marine turbine en-
gines ever built in the United States.
The ship for which they furnish power,
the Gov. Cobb of the Eastern Steam
ship Co., is the first built in the United
States to be equipped with the turbine.
Dock tests OF the engines made Sat
urday afternoon showed them to be
satisfactory, according to Andrew
Fletcher, president of the contracting
company The big engines, which de
velop 5000 horsepower, were quickly
started, one after another, and alto
gether, and reversed, without the ship
giving any sign of vibration.
Her null, built in the Roach shipyard
in Camden, was brought to Hoboken
several months ago. The work OF
building the engines and putting them
on board has occupied a large force of
men. Mr.. Fletcher, who passed nearly
six months in Europe making study
of the Parsons turbine, recently had
the plant Of the company enlarged, and
personally supervised every detail OF
the construction.
With length of 900 feet, beam of
81 feet and a depth of 20 feet, 6 inches
in the hold, the Gov. Cobb registers 2
542 tons. She has three engines and
three propellers. The center turbine is
a high pressure engine, while the port
and Starboard turbines are low pres
sure engines.
The vessel is built for a speed of
171-2 knots and this, Mr.. Fletcher is
confident, she will easily attain.
In the three turbines are $4,000
blades ranging in height from less than
an inch to about five inches.
Only one other craft of turbine type
has ever been built in the United
States, though several others are now
under construction. This craft is the
yacht Revolution. being built by. the
Seabury Co. Her engines are not, how
ever, Of the Parsons type. W. y A.
Fletcher have under contract the Yale
and Harvard for the Metropolitan
Steamship Co., each of which is to have
10000 horsepower and be able to make
2o-knot speed between New York and
Boston.

MAPLE GROVE CAMPGRoUND.

The fact that the annual campmeet-
ing. held for the first time by the Maple
Grove Campmeetlng Association, was
largely attended has already been noted.
The new water system by which the
grounds are supplied with an abundance
of pure spring water proved a success.
The last Sunday, in spite OF the fact
that the large number of people IN at
tendance, as we'll as cottage owners,
were using water not only for them
selves but for horses, the Stand-plpe
continued to overflow throughout the
day.
The Association has passed resolu-
ton that all cottages on Maple Grove
Campground must be finished and kept
we'll painted. No unSightly surround
ings will be permitted, and all cottages
whose owners fail to paint or put them
in perfect repair within 90 days after
notification by the Association will be
put in first class condition by the AsSO-
citation and the cost thereof is assessed
upon the cottage. This rule is working
a wonderful transformation already.
Five cottages have been painted, I'M
slightly wooden verandas are being re-
moved. and concrete ones are taking
their place.
On the first Monday in October there
is to be a general gathering of cottage
owners, and a week or more will see a
scene of activity on the grounds, when
general repairing, painting, ETC., will be
in progress.
Six new cottages are to be erected
and probably many more. MeSSrs. E.
W. & E. r. Thompson of Searsport
have contracted to build stable 175
feet long, to be ready for next season.
Plans are already being laid to pro-
cure some able speakers from New
York and Boston for next years meet
ings. Noted singers and eloquent re-
vivalists will be engaged, and it is
probable that the meetings will be con-
tinued over three Sundays.
Parties desiring to avail themselves
of the offer of free lots on which to
erect cottages will find the treasurer on
the ground during the week beginning
with the first Monday in October.
