]. y. Packard of Monmouth is the DEM
ocratic candidate for county commits
sioner, and Timothy S. Harrington of
China the Democratic candidate for
county treasurer. 1t is true that these
were the men picked out for these posi-
tions by the little gang of Augusta and
Waterville politicians who gave that
famous exhibition of ring rule at the
convention Of the Kennebec County
Democrats. in June. but the News is
apparently unable to understand that
there is a ring within the ring in this
county. The Democratic county COM
mittee. It seems, revised that list Of
nominations which the ring drew UP
at the county convention, and thrust
aside the candidate for county commits
sioner. putting one of its own members
on the ticket in his place. 1t also made
q change in the nominee for county
treasurer. The Lewiston News in it:
Innocence assumes that the Democrat.
of Kenrebec county have a voice il
naming the nominees of their party.
evidently does not understand the in
tricacies and complications of ring rule

The Waterville Sentinel still persists
in calling the list of 33 mammoth cor

official, "scurrilous'' These corpora
tons were taken from the official rec
ords-and so far as we know there is
nothing scurrilous about them. The
Sentinel has neglected to state as yet
just how much money they pay ;nto
the Maine treasury.
