Waldo County Prohibitionists.

The ProhibitoniSts of Waldo county met
in convention iii Burnham August I'd. Geo.
f. Sherman of Burnham called the meeting
to order and George Dyer was chosen chair
man and II. F. Erskine secretary A
county committee was then elected as fol-
lows: II. +. Erskne of Montville, G. F.
sherman of Burnham, A. T. Weber of
>wanville, F. A. Rhuades of Northport,
Henry A. Bacon of Unity.
Joseph F. Jones, Ii. L. McAlster and II.
T. Erskine were made a committee ON reso-
buttons.
The following ticket was nomnat
ed by acGlamation Senator, Edward Davis
of Burnham; sheriff, Joseph F. Jones of
Rurnham; clerk of courts, George Dyer Of
Burnham register of deeds, Henry \. Ba-
con of Unity; county commissioner Hiram
L. McAlister Of Burnham, county treasur-
CT, Charles NJ Plummer of Montville.
The committee on resolutions reported
the following, which were unanimously
adopted:
Resolved, that we, the Prohibitonists of
Waldo county, heartily commend the action
OF our State convention in nominating Henry
Woodward for governor and pledge him
our earnest support.
Resolved that we deplore the fact that
the action of some unwashed Republicans,
who for the past few years have been mas
querading as Prohibitionsts, has led to the
erroneous impression that ProhibItionists
were being caught by this latest ruse of the
Republican managers to capture the tenn
perance vote.
AT a class caucus, held Immediately after
the ad adjourument of the conventions, II. +.
ErSklne of Montville was nominated for
representative to the legislature.

and through Gilkey's Harbor, and at lit
tie after 5 p. m. the party were landed at
Lewis wharf, tired and sunburned but
happy.
There were many incidents of the trip
which we are unable to write up. popu-
lar Belfast man was elected representative
to the legislature with but one dissenting
vote. There were no clothing deals, although
"Peavy" was present.
Many went on the trip to get cool, and
succeeded. On the return, with strong
southwest wind blowing, it was so cool that
winter overcoats were necessary for the
comfort of all who remained on deck but
as Belfast was neared the air came off the
land as though from an oven and on land
ing the shady side of the streets was
sought.
During the entire trip the water was
smoother than the writer has ever seen
it. There was not the slightest swell in Isle
au Haut bay and no surf even on the outer
ledgeS.
When the proof of the foregoing chronicle
came to lfand an important omission was
noted, A member OF the Gunner Club
staff was James E. Welch and on the return
trip, assisted by the capable steward Of the
tastine, he prepared and served an excel
lent fish choWder, which with hot coffee,
hardtack and doughnuts took the place Of
the midday meal.

We understand the interest in the Stock
ton Springs Trust Co. continues to increase
and that the stock is being subscribed for
quite rapidly, and the expectation is that
the entire amount of capital stock, $4,000,
will be taken before long. The increasing
demands for such an institution seem to
foretella an early date for its opening Here's
success to the enterprise.

The death of Mr.. John Marden at "the
Brook" last week came as blessed release
to him after thirteen years of severe paraly-
sis and partial cloudlng Of the mind. Mr.
Marden was born iii Prospect in 1884, COM
ing to that portion of Cape JellSon called
Luwder's Brook about the time of his mar
riage to Miss jamie Dickey, only daughter
uf the late Capt. William Dickey, who lived
there, and where he later erected house
which he occupied until his death. OF a
very industrious, frugal nature his years of
enforced inactivity were extremely trying
and when the frail wife was suddenly tax en-
from him ten years ago, the blow fell very
heavily. He was tender husband and a
kind father and the sympathy of the COM
munity is extended to the three daughters
who survive him-Mrs. Chas. Kneeland,
Mrs. Geo. Lanpher and Mrs. Ernest Bow
den. Since the decease of Mrs. Marden the
second daughter, Mrs. Lanpher, and family,
have lived with the father and cared for him
in his feeble condition. After second
shock last week he passed into an un-
conscious state which lasted for thirty-sx
hours, when the end quietly came. The
funeral services were held Saturday after
noon from his late residence The interment
was in the Cape Jeliison cemetery.
