Valley City, in its efforts to secure
Blackie. is setting an example of Wig
orous hunting for criminals that would
be credit to any community. Punish
ment swift and sure is the terror Of
law breakers, and the hunting down
to the death is one of the strongest
methods of impressing the crimnally
inclined with the power of the law.

On the Defensive.

Candidate Davis has all the Repub-

Is that so. The editor of the Record
according to his own eloquent declara-
ton. ''ain't no spotter," and the pert
paragraph quoted above is good evil
dence that he doesn't spot much
which the Republican papers are hav-
ing to say about Candidate Davis. 1t
is true that the Republican papers all
have considerable to say about Candi-
date Davis and give him large
amount of free advertising in their
columns, but this is natural enough
since he is not only the candidate of
his party for the gOvernorship, but is

that he. as a member of the legislative

that increase which he now condemns
as an unwarranted piece of Republi-
can extravaganza? Are they on the

Somerset Railroad, himself voting LOT
the measure which he now condemns
as wicked Republican measure? Are
they on the defensive when they point

II the Republican papers of Maine
are on the defensive in this campaign
1t is only in the sense that the Re-
publican party is in power in Maine,
and the Democrats being on the out
side, are naturally attacking the en-
trenchments. Honest criticism and
tar discussion are welcomed, but the
Democrats have no use, it seems, for
this kind of ammunition. If the Re
publican papers are on the defensive
as regards Candidate Davis it is Ger
tainly only in the sense of the mill
tary theory that the best defense is an
aggressive attack.

DOC" Jones' Bluff Bet.

DIR. E. l.. Jones, chairman Of the
Democratic State Committee. in an
'open letter" to the editor of the Ken
nebec Journal offers to bet him $1,000
that the books of his committee, kept
under his general direction by the
worthy gentlemen-will not show any
subscriptions from the Rum Trust. We
have never thought that they would.
Doubtless the entries that show upon
that record, like the Popular SUBJ
scription" now running in the Water
Vile Sentinel, are intended for use in
meeting the legitimate expenses Of the
campaign. such, for instance. as the
purchase of postage stamps and the
payment of the hotel and livery bills
Of the various gentlemen who have
towns in the interests of the Rum
Trust and the Democratic party. We
recognize the fact that the chairman
of the Democratic State Committee is
smooth article" as political
manipulator and we have never sup
posed for a moment that he would by
any oversight permit an entry to be
made upon his books that would not
look well in print.
Now as we read the proposition of
Doctor Jones, it is practically this:
Il HEREBY CHALLENGE THE
EDITOR OF THE KENNEBEC
JOURNAL TO JOIN ME IN A $1,000
BET UPON THE FAIR AND EQUIT-
ABLE BASIS OF HEADS 1 WIN,
TAILS YOU LOSE My books shall
constitute the proof; and you may
select the committee! l would suggest
though that they be Hon. William T.
Cobb, Hon. John F. Hill and Hon. Seth
NJ. Carter"
Certainly this would be an excellent
committee. 1t is to be doubted though
if they would care to lend the jug
handled proposition submitted by DR..
Jones the prestige of their names. So
far as we know none of them are bet
ting men; though. if they were, it is
safe to say that they would not wish
to place their money upon surer
proposition than that submitted by the
astute chairman of the Democratic
State Committee who, with charac-
teristic modesty, is content to retain
both ends and the middle in his own
hands-and generously comedies the
editor of the Journal all the rest!

The Hon. Cyrus w. Davis has con-
siderable to say about the partial
abatement in taxes for a term of years
which the State granted the B. and A.
railroad as an aid in starting this
great enterprise that has contributed
so much to the growth, the progress
and tho prosperity of our State. The
records fail to show, however. that he
appeared before the legislative COM
mittee in opposition to it, and the
Democratic member of the House from
his own city of Waterville voted for
TIE bill. which he would scarcely have
done had Mr.. Davis summoned him to
opposition.

Maine is fast becoming a place 50

state and it is not under prohibition.

from Mr.. Newbert's latest extended
article-a great effort to convince the
voters of Maine that we must have
the legaliZed saloon system to be saved.
that Indiana is a much better place
to live in than the State of Maine.
But Mr.. Newbert, it seems. decided
to cast his lot with the State which
is 50 loaded down with hypocritical
laws and he pulled up stakes and hur-
ried back To the iniquitouS Capital
City. And there he is. we'll established

business. From appearances. it would
appear that he is well content
ed with what Maine has to offer. con-
sidering the States advantages with

often speak louder than words and Mr..
Newbert's criticisms Cf the temper
ance laws of Maine are not consistent
with the way he has exercised his
Judgment in selecting 4 place to live
in. The figures of the Augusta gen.
tleman look as pregnant with political
bias as do those of Candidate Davis.
