Next Mondays Election in Augusta.

The Republicans of Augusta are be-
ginning to realize that their success at
next Mondays municipal election is
not only possibility but probability.
Republican success last Monday in
Waterville. Auburn and Rockland,
cities that We're carried by the Demo-
Gratis both last spring and last fall by
very large maiOrities, has shown that
the tide has turned again and that
Democratic expectations of capturing
the whole State, after first entrenching
themselves strongly in our cities. are
doomed to disappointment. In Hal
lowell and Bath where the Democrats
elected their mayors, the city govern
ments, it will be noticed, remain in the
hands of the Republicans.
When next Mondays elections are
held still more Maine cities will swing
back into the Republican column and
only remains for the Republicans of
the city to wake up and go to the
poles. There is no reason why we
should allow the management Of city
affairs to remain in Democratic hands
The Republican ticket is a strong one
in every ward and worthy of full party
support and the confidence of all good
citizens.
Last year, for the sake of a change,
the city went Democratic for the first
time in Is years and now it is in order
for it to swing back into the Republic
can column where it belongs. Let the
Republican voters of the city realize
their opportunity and their RESPONSE
bility and act accordingly. A full vote
means rousing old-fashioned Re-
publican victory next Monday. Do
your part toward bringing about this
result. 1t will be for the best interests
Of the city.

Miss Ada Lydia Howard, who died
in Brooklyn Sunday night, in her 18th
year was the first woman president of
college in the world. She was We'll
lesley colleges original president. and
she was chosen by Henry +. Durant,
the founder. and he chose well a wom-
an at once of proved personal force in
teaching and of sincere religious
character. Miss Howard was born at
Temple. y. H., December 10. 1879; her
father was William Hawkins Howard /;
three OF her great-grandfathers were
officers in the Revolutionary army.
Her father was scholar, and her
mother Il woman of remarkable eveness
and sweetness of character; she was
taught by her father. and also in pri-
waite schools, and finally Mount Hol-
yoke seminary. where she was gradu-
atcd. After that she took post-Srad-
uate studies. and taught in her alma
mater; became principal of the wo-
mems department of Knox college, and
for some years carried on a private
school at Bridgeton. n. j., whence MIR.
Durant called her to be president of
Wellesley in 1875. She held that posi-
ton in the formative years of the coll
lege, and resigned several years later
because of failing health.

4 few days ago the Portland Argus

A few days ago the Portland Argus
seized upon the death of three menu
bers of the New York Legislature dur
ing the winter as an argument" for
changing the capital from Augusta t.,
Portland. 1t now appears that the
meat Of the argument" lies in the al
legged fact that the death of each OF
the three gentlemen referred to was
due to the bad ventilation of the State
House Mt Albany. This simplifies the
matter. Now will the Argus kindly
favor us with a list of the members OF
the Legislature who have died as a re-
suit of the bad ventilation of the Maine
State House? Will it also explain how

on their lobbying campaign at Augusta.
The editorial from which this extract
is taken was Written in reference to
the mass meeting held at the Portland
Board of Trade rooms Monday morn
ing. and the predominant note in the
change of the capital from Augusta to
Portland would be great business
benefit to the latter city and that the
Portland business men should not hest
tate 10 put their money into the scheme
as they would into any other invest
ment.
| One speaker at that meeting ventured
to question the legal right of the city
to make a gift of hundreds of thou
| upon another speaker reminded him
| with warmth and emphasis that the
money was in no wise a gift to the
| State but that it was business trans
| action for Portlands benefit in which
| the city was engaged. and the report
states that this latter speaker was
| wildly applauded. Another speaker.
whose remarks were also received with
vociferous approval, was one who be-
Of the $4,000 members of the Maine
State Grange to this scheme of capital
removal.
Nobody will dispute that it would be
to the interest of Portland to have that
city made the State capital. and nobody
will blame Portland for attempting to
secure this advantage for itself. Other
cities are to be heard from if Golfers"
are to be made. But the capital of
Maine is not for sale. Portland at
tempts to show that there are other
reasons for the proposed change beside
the simple fact that it wants to be
made the capital, but these reasons are
very easily disposed of and Portland's
"offer" does not blind the people of
Maine TO the real situation. 1t is
business proposition IoT Iol ti.iiIu ~ So
the capital if it can, but it is a bust
ness proposition for Maine to keep the
capital where it is.
The Portland papers have referred to
the people of Maine as being stupid"
and Portland evidently counts on this
stupidity" in the present instance.
That city will learn its mistake. The
people of Main. are too intelligent to
be caught in the trap prepared for
them. They will not be deceived by the
allur.ag bait of gold which Portland
offers them. There are better uses for
the money of the taxpayers than in
spending millions for the erection of an
orna ment for Portland's Western prom
enade. The great lobbying fund which
Portland is raising will be spent in
vain. The Maine Legislature is not to
be bought that way, and the people of
Maine are not to be fooled by the
so-called publicity campaign" which
Portland now proposes to inaugurate.
The whole case of Portland is given
away in the clipping from the Argus
given above.

SLEEPING IN BACK YARD.
Topeka Spends the Hot Nights In
Tents and Hammocks.
From the Topeka Capital.

From the Topeka Capital.
Probably more tents are in daily use
in Topeka this summer than ever before.
Many have learned that a good way to
escape the discomfort of hot tleeping
room at the close of hot day is to sleep
in a tent spread on the grass in the back
yard.
In many instances a hammock swung
on the front or back porch or between
two trees in the yard is utilized by a
single member of the family who believes
In lots of fresh air and who is able to
sleep in comfort after accustoming him
self to the change from a bed to u ham,
mock, while the other members Of the
family toss wakefully indoors.
Many who do not have hammocks or
tents sleep on "shakedowns" on their
front or back porches, retiring after it
gets dark and making a dash for the
privacy OF indoors when the sun rises In
the morning and wakes them. A tour OF
the streets of the city about sunup Will
reveal many instances of this practice
1t Is not a fashionable habit, but there
is a great deal Of genuine comfort in 1t.
Some of the boys in Topeka have rudely
built houses in the branches of trees in
which they sleep during warm weather
No less than three tents have been
pitched at the Country Club. AT the To-
peka Club a number of the members take
advantage of fiat roof On the south side
of the porch and place their cots here on
warm nights behind a canvas curtain
that is intended to shut out the view of
the common herd.
