BELFAsr's MEXICAN WAR VETERAN

A special in the Kennebec Journal from
Portland, Oct 9th, claims for that city the
only Mexican war veteran in the State.
Belfast is pleased to put in her claim Of a
veteran of two wars, Isaac Jackson of this
city, who saw two years service in the
Mexican War and from 1868 to the close of
the Civil War. Isaac jackson was born in
Hope, Maine, Mar. 8, 1925 His earlier
years were spent upon his fathers farm.
At the outbreak of the Mexican war he ell
listed at Rockland under Lieut.. Tracy and
was sent with others to Belfast, where he
joined Capt. Palmer's Company, going
from there to Fort Adams, r. 1. The COM
pany was assigned to the New England
regiment, commanded by Col. Ransom of
Portland, who subsequently was killed at
Chapultepec The regiment was sent to
Vera Cruz on the bark Antelope and ship
Maid of Orleans, where 1t joined Scott's
army and started for the City of Mexico
Jackson took part in the battles of Churu-
busco, Contreras, Molino del Rey, San
Antonio, Chapultepec and others enroute
to the City of Mexico. At Chapultepec he
saw 27 of Col. Riley's men executed for
desertion. He served to the close of the
war, when his regiment was sent from Vera
Cruz to New Orleans, thence by ship to
Fort Adams, T. J., when it was mustered
out. Alter his discharge he came to Bel
fast, where he engaged in farming and soap
manufacturing and was married to Miss
Carrie Wood of Belfast. He enlisted for
the Civil War as a recruit for the sth Regi-
ment Maine Volunteer Infantry and was
assigned to Company l. He was in the
engagements of Bermuda Hundred, Fort
Harrison. Cold Harbor, Petersburg and
Fair Oaks, and served until the close
OF the war, and was mustered out at Au-
gusta. He had typhoid fever during his
service in Mexico, but was not in the
hospital during his term of service in the
Union Army. He has the rifle he carried in
the war Of the Rebellion. At Molino del
Rey he was slightly wounded, and received
slight shell wOund at Fair Oaks. After
the war he returned to his farming and
soap manufacturing, in which he was
successful. He is now retired from busi-
ness and lives on the fruits of his industry
and richly deserved pension for his two
fold service for his country. He has always
been a good citizen, and can feel that his
life has been useful both to his country and
the community in which he has spent his
long and eventful life. His brother Amasa.
deceased, was also veteran of both wars.

tion here today were the election of officers

nations be made from the floor This was
done and after several pointed speeches, in
which the Brownson supporters intimated
that the book publishers were behind PalE-
erS candidacy, the vote was taken, resulting
in the election of Palmer, 2s4 to 21O. Other
officers elected are: Vice president, ID. H.
Dole Of Portland; secretary aud treasurer,
l. A. Smith of Auburn; corresponding sec
retary, L. T. Holland of Waservile; MEM
Der of executive committee, James Otis ka-
ler of South Portland
The forenoon was devoted to work in the
various departments. At the afternoon ses-
sion of the association the principal speak
ers were Dean Walz of the University of
Maine Law School; Hon George ii. Martin
of Boston, and Henry 7. Bailey of North
Scituate, Mass.
In city hall tonight was held the meeting
OF presidents and principals Of the Maine
Association of Colleges and Preparatory

dress was by Prof. Paul H. Hanus of Har-
ward University, whose topic was can Eff

NOTABLE MEDICAL DIS covERY
Of Special Value to Many Here in Belfast

VI 0PeSAoA VoAue " many ae1c III Dei1dSt.
One of the most notable discoveries and
one that undoubtedly appeals more than
anything else to many people here in Bel
fast is the combination of stomach remedies
in the Mio-na treatment. This prescrip-
tlOh has worked wonders, and there is now
no excuse for anyone suffering with in
digestion or weak stomach
1t acts specifically upon the muscles of
the stomach and bowels, strengthening and
stimulating them SO that they readily take
care of the food that is eaten. 1t also in
creases the flow of gastric juices, thus get
ting from the food the nourishment that is
necessary for health and energy.
The symptoms of indigestion are numer-
ouS, such as distress after eating, flatulence,
heart burn, sick headaches, dizziness and
irrtability. These are all dispelled by a
few doses of Mi-o-na when the trouble is
recent, but just as surely in long standing
and chronic cases if the treatment is fol-
lowed for a reasonable length of time.
So positive are the good effects following
the use of Mi-o-na that the remedy is sold
by K. Ii. Moody under an absolute guaran-
tee to refund the money if it should fail to
cure.

OVER AND OVER.

Over and over it comes to me-
The thought Of Christ on the stormy sea-
In times of trouble and loss and pain,
When my hearts ship on the wind-swept
main.
Over and over it comes to me
The thought of my comrades on Gailee,
And their awe when the winds Obeyed His
will.
As He spake and said to them, "Peace, be
still"'
Over and over it comes to me-
Each human life has its Galilee,
And Christ is ever the Christ of old
When His "Peace, be still!' to the waves
was told.
Over and over 1t comes to me-
The message of comfort from Galilee,
The voice of Christ through the storm l
hear
"Lo, tits [! There is naught to fear"

Changes in Steamship Management

One result of the upheaval in Wall street
has been radical changes in the manage

ship lines and the head of all the subsidiary
companies, except the New York & Porto
Rico Steamship Co. of Maine and New

WESTWARD RATES
HURT LEWISTON
Besides Discrimination, the
Railroad Men Refuse
! information

Colorado is not encouraging the
emigration of its citizens to the north
west, judging from letter received
by the secretary Of the promotion
bureau this morning.
The letter, dated at Grand Junction.
Colorado, Is from homeseeker wno
asks for the lowest possible rates
from that point to Lewiston, saying
that he can get no satisfaction from
the railroad agents there concerning
the matter.
Secretary Rohrabacher, on making
INQUIRY finds that the lowest rate from
Grand Junction to Lewiston is $SlsS,
and in comparison with rates from
other points, finds that 1000 miles
east of Grand Junction on missouri
river points, the rate is $22.5o.
That is the homeseeker from the
Mississippi valley states can get
much better rate to Lewiston and
other northwest points than can the
homeseeker who lives 1000 west from
those points.
