Wedding Bells.

Theatre goers were treated to a pleas.
ant surprise Friday night at the Stanley
opera house, when the Lyndonvile
Dramatic Company presented the com.
edy drama, Wedding Bells" 1t was,
without doubt, one of the best per-
tormances of the season The play
abounds in clever dramatic and humor-
Gus situations, which harmonized to the
best advantage. The incement weather
kept many away, but those who did
attend were very proiuse in their praise
OF the acting Of our neighbors from the
Vile, and the general opinion is, that
should they appear here again, they
would be greeted by a much larger
audience. The play was given under the
direction of B. F. Crandall, who was
well supported by Lyudonvile talent.

THE MAINE ELECTION.

The concurrent testimony is that the
factor in the recent election in Maine
and accounts for the slump in the Re
publican majorities. A very large and
exceedingly profitable part of the bust
ness of Maine is the entertainment of
tourists. These bring a great deal of
money into the State overy year from
hunting and fishing parties. Summer
visitors and eZcursionists to the bcauti-
ful lakes and picturesque mountains.
The prohibition laws are a serious detri-
ment to this trade. and in all the cities
and places where the tourists frequent
there is a strong demand for a rntiga-
tion Of the stringent prohibitory l@gisla-
ton. The Democrats allied themselves
with those fayoring this issue. while the
Republicans stood pat on the enforce
nlent Of the present laws Therefore. it
is found that the Democrats made the
most decided gains in most of the cities
and towns and on the routes patroniZed
by tourists while in the rcmoter .cnun-
try districts the Republicans cast their
usual vote and majority. Coy. cobb.
the candidate for recollection, was op-
posed to resubmission of the prohibit
tion laws, and he suffered most at the
| polls, since his majoritr was cut down
more than half. All of the Republican
! candidates stood with him, and ali of
them. except Mr.. Rurleigh. who repre-
sents country district. suffered witt,
him in the diminution of their majori-

| he did. however. Mr.. Littlefield came
out better than the State ticket. which
| is taken to indicate that, after all. as he
says, Mr.. Gompers's' visit and efforts
helped rather than hurt him. A great
many people in his district resented the
dictation of the labor unions, and voted
for Mr.. Littietield where otherwise they
would not have done 50.
The National tribune., 1906-09-20

A cOmmendable feature has been de-
veioped in connection with the exam
ination of the Philadelphia Real Estate
Company's affairs in following up the
money in the hands of others. Hereto
fore it has seemed that the cashier and
President of the wrecked banks ans
other institutions have been made t.
receive the full force of the law, while
those who probably led them into the
wrongdoing have not only escaped, but
have been allowed to retain the money
that they got and enjoy its benefit The
receiver of the Real Estate Company
has notified Mr.. Wainwright, wealthy
man. that 100000 has been traced tc
him, and he must make it good. If the
receiver goes on in this way he will dc
great public service and point out q
path for others to follow which will
have a decidedly healthful effect in pre-
venting banks being looted.

1t seems that the cause of one CT the

rivalry between two great American
fruit companies. the American Banana

volving 5000 900 damages against the
United Fruit Company, which ii charges
stirred up the war in order to have the

has been writing to the Governors of

finds that all of them east of the Mis-
sissippi are strongly in favor of it, and
vii! probably recommend such legisla-
ton to the Legislatures AT the ,oii,;;ii;; i; ;

THE DUTY OF stRoRDIy.TE,s

The recent exposures of gIarjng
iraudS in banks have brought up the
question IS to what is the duty of
su3ordin2tcs 1t has been held that a
a commercial establishment, u manu-
occurring corporation or a great de-
business to know anything beyond what
pertaincd to his everyday duties; that
of the do.nss OF his supcriors. to com
raent upon therl. nor t. criticize them
To certain extent this must remain
true. man who has family to sup
port and is dependent upon his daily
labor for that purpose and whose posi-
ton is not such as to give him any re-
spCnSibility beyond doing his own al
lottrd work properly. is. as a rule very
unwiSt-. it may be improperly meddle-
some, when he goes beyond his range
Of employment to criticize and report
upon The duties of others. Yet there
would seem to be a limit to the applica-
ton of this rule. and the President of
Dae of the Great financial institutions of
Chicago recently sent notice to every
officer and e.ncloye under him which
read:
1T has come to my Knowledge that
some of the clerks in the Milwaukee
Avenue state Eank had knowledge of
the frauds and Irregularities perpetrat-
cd in that bank by some of its officers,
and that they took no action to protect
the bank. its shareholders or depositors
against such frauds Of which they were
fully cOsniZant. | desire it to be clearly
underst God by every employe of this
bank that knowledge or any reasonable
suspicion of fraud of any kind by which
the bank suffers or may suffer will be
regarded as guilty knowledge unless i'm
mcdiately disclosed. If the fraud is per-
Detrated by any officer or clerk under
the rank of president the employe who
has knowledge or suspicion of it should
report it to me. If it is perpc;rated by
the president it should be commune
to the directors"
This would seem to be a correct pol
icy and one which should be carried out
with wisdom and moderation. The main
trouble will be in determining what is
IL reasonable suspicion of fraud and
wrongdoing. Undoubtedly any cmploye
who knows or has good reason to be-
lieve that a fellOw-employe or a supe-
rior officer is actually wronging the in
stitution in which they are both en-
ployed should bring the attention of
others to this. This is only plain. old
fashioned honesty, which a man cannot
disregard without becoming an accom-
plice. At the same time there must be
a great deal of circumspectiOn to pre-
vent this degeneratng into spying. tale
bearing and simple malice. In the re-
cent failures of the Milwaukee Avenue
and Trust Co. quite Il number of the
employees now testify that they We're
cognizant of the wrongdoing for months
and even years before the exposure. If
this were So there is a load on their
consciences that they did not make the
knowledge public and save millions of
dollars to poor people who had intrust-
ed their savings to the thieving manag-
ers. If they had all told what they said
they actually knew at the time, the
| criminality would have not become so
gigantic, but would have stopped before
the losses had reached proportions to
bring appalling losses.
