The direful calamity which last
Wednesday visited San Francisco has
dwarfed all other news. The magni-
tude of the disaster can hardly yet be
realized-the effect was stunning.
But dark as is the pail OF smoke
which hangs above the Golden Gate
city, there is brighter side a
glimpse of the great tender human
heart of this nation, which too seldom
we see beneath the surface rush of
avarice and selfishness. The news of
the San Francisco disaster brought
this better element to the surface, as
have other great calamities. An ap-
peal for aid from the smitten city was
unnecessary. While the wires were
yet telling of the disaster in the first
brief bulletins, relief work was inau-
gurated in all sections of the country,
and generous purses were opened.
The work was not confined to indi-
vidual effort. Municipalities large and
small took it up, and the government,
through the war department, ser it's
machinery at work, helping to subdue
the tres in San Francisco and starting

Another candidate has entered the
field for the republican nomination
for the Office of county attorney
Linwood F. Giles, OF Ellsworth. Mr..
Giles was out for the nomination two
years ago, but withdrew before the
convention.
l.. F. Giles was born in Waltham,
and educated in the public schools of
his native town and in Castine nor
NAL school. He studied law in the
office of Hale & Hamlin, Ellsworth,
and one year each in the law depart
ments at the University of Michigan at
Ann Arbor, and the Boston university.
He was admitted to the Hancock
county bar in 1890, and has since been
practicing law in Ellsworth.
One OF the arguments urged by the
friends of Mr.. Giles in his candidacy
is the fact that Ellsworth has not had
a county attorney for twenty six
years, the late George p. Dutton be-
ing the last Ellsworth man to hold
the Office. The late Charles II. Drum
mey was elected to the office, but his
death occurred before his term Of
Office began.

regarded and accepted as the execu-
tive of the win of the party as it shall
be expressed by the majority in any
circumstances that may arise. To re-
gard this committee as proposing to
ssboss'' the opinions of the party or of
the convention is to do it a grave in
Justice.
That Governor Cobb viii be renom-
mated goes without saying. And
that he will have the support of vast
majority OF party on the policies al
ready laid down by him we firmly
believe. II it is true that the republic
can reverses of this spring are due to
dissatisfaction with the Sturgis law,
it by no means follows that IL was also
an expression Of dissatisfaction with
the prohibitory law, or with its en-
forcement. And we feel certain that
this notion viii be utterly dispelled
before the convention adiourns-
An honest difference Of opinion
may exist as to the wisdom OF re-
submission, but for ourselves-and We
believe We represent the sentiment
OF this section of the State-it would
be the height Of folly to adopt plank
favoring it. If the time ever comes
that it would be wise to do so, it will
not be until strict enforcement
throughout the State, uniformly ap-
piled by the concerted action OF all
the sheriffs, has been continued for
sufficient length OF time to demon
strate its effect. That enforcement is
possible in some sections all the time
has been proven; that it is possible in
all the sections some of the time has
also been proven; but that 1t is posi-
Bile in all the sections all the time has
not been tested, and until it is, re
submission is not to be thought of.
The situation suggests, in fact, de-
mands that for the best interests of
the party, and that means for the
best interests of the State, men of
high character, sound judgment and
wise counsel be those who shall be
sent to Portland to name the next
governor of Maine, and frame plat
form in keeping with the tradition a
policy OF the party in whose keeping
our grand old State has SO long and so
wisely contided.

supplies forward promptly for the
homeless ones.
At Washington the whole attention
of mos. OF the departments was given
to sending and receiving news, hurry
ing forward relief and authorizing the
officers on the spot to make all sorts
of provisions to meet the necessities
of the case.
Sec. Taft said privately that he was
glad they had an officer on the ground
who came to the front like Gen. Funs-
ton, did things first and asked au-
thority afterward. The emergency
appropriation bill giving 81, ooo, 600 to
be Immediately available for the relief
work was passed in record time and
sent to the President, receiving his
signature, all within the space Of six
hours.
Telegraphers have been on duty
constantly at the war and navy de-
partments, a. In the days OF the Span
ish war, and the secretaries Of war
and navy and Of commerce and labor
have been In touch with the depart
mcnts at all hours.
The cost of the disaster to the gov
eminent win be enormous. The de-
struction in military and naval stores
in and around San Francisco alone
will be q, 500, 900. In addition to that
the damage to buildings and equip
ment must be counted, and there are
81 ,0oo, 900 worth OF government build
ings within the area of the disturb
ance. The relief work, including the
appropriation from Congress, will
also mount into the millions.

The County Convention.

The Hancock county republican con-
vention has been called for Tuesday, June
5, at Hancock hall, Ellsworth. The call,
showing the number of delegates to
which each city, town and plantation is
entitled, is printed elsewhere in this issue.
The total number of delegates is 142.
Rarely has more serious work confronted
county convention than is now in sight.
Important offices are to be filed, and the
responsibility of placing in nomination
men in every respect qualified to ill them
rests upon the delegates soon to be
chosen. II is in the choice of delegates
that the voters have the opportunity to
express their views, and it is here that
great judgment should be exercised.
There is little occasion for doubt that the
nominees of this convention viii be sue
cessful at the polls. Two years ago Mr..
Mayo, the present sheriff, was elected as a
democrat, not because he was democrat,
but because majority of the voters be-
lieved he would enforce the prohibitory
law.
he was pledged to enforcement, and he
has kept his pledge. He will doubtless be
re-nominated by his party. VIII the re-
publicans who voted for him two years
ago vote for him this year? There is no
question but that the sentiment of Ham
cock county is overwhelmingly for en-
forcement, and there is no reason for sup
posing that those republicans who voted
for Mr.. Mayo two years ago win not do SO
again unless they are afforded an opportu-
nifty to vote for candidate of their own
party whom they believe will enforce the
liquor law.
If any of the candidates already in the
field possesses this requirement, he can be
elected over Mr.. Mayo; if none of them
do, it is sup to" the convention to seek
such a man and nominate him. He can
be elected.
Hardly less interest attaches to the ac-
tion of the convention in relation to the
nominees for the other county offices,
and their importance demands unusual
care in the choice of delegates.
