on the Sebasticook & Moosehead
Railroad, was badly injured at Hart
land station Monday afternoon, re-
sulting in the crushing of his left foot,
it being necessary to amputate the
limb below the knee.
According to Lubec packers the
sardine season just closed has been
the most successful for Is years and
the business here at Eastport and
along the coast will show a profit of
voer a quarter of a million dollars.
The goods are practically all sold,
many of the packers having been
unable to fill all their orders. The
seasons pack along the coast is esti-
mated at 1,325,000 cases, divided
about as follows: Lubec, $4,000
cases; Eastport, $4,000 cases; scat
tered towns along the coast, 1875, 200

Chester Haynes of Waterville, the
fireman who miraculously escaped
with his life in the wreck near Benton
Station about two months ago, is able
to be out of doors and is rapidly re-
gaining strength. Haynes suffered
awful injuries to his head and face and
was given up to die but his wonderful
physique has recovered, although he
will go without one eye and his face
will be terribly marked for life.
Haynes will soon go to a hospital to
have his nose and jaw attended to as
it was impossible to fix the bones per
manently because of his serious con-
dition after the accident.

From this statement il will he seen
that a majority of those voting for the
abolition of the board desired that il
! should be known that they did sc
| without intending to reflect on the
members of the buard. Adding this
number TO those who opposed any
change in the management. it will
make a majority Of the senate. In the
face OF this record the governor says
that the members of the beard Of con-
troll were ''crucified on the cross of
their pwn wrong doing"
1t IS true that the governor has
sought TO cruelty the members Of the
board and that he has furnished the
nails OF SANDER, villitication and false
hood for he purpose Of tortnring his

it, is untrue, and 50 far aS it refers tu
me, | will state that instead Of oppoS-
ing, | favored the change for the rea-
sons given for the senators above men
toned and for the reasons quoted
above from the report OF the legisa
tive committee.

AID feel pardonable pride in the fact
that it was during my service as d
member OF the board that the buSi-
ness grew from an insignificant side
issue into such magnitude. -
AS member of the board of con-

work assigned me by the legislature,
and l felt that it would be improper
FOR me TO influence in any way the ac-
tiOn OF the legislature in regard To

when called on for an expression OF

Returning to the correspondence

tiOn that the governor used his posi-

A MONTH.

Owing to the publicity given an at
tempt to start bucket shop in this
city. A. ]. Cummings, the proprietor,
applied to City Clerk Hart for a H.
cense shortly before o'clock this at
ternOon.
Mr.. Cummings strenuausly protest
ed that he is not running a bucket
shop but is a commission broker who
wants to do all that the law required,
to avoid getting into any trouble.
Clerk Hart was in doubt whether to
issue license under ordinance No.
494, which provides for quarterly fee
of 500 for brokers doing business in
Walla Walla, or under ordinance No.
952, providing license fee of 5000
for bucket shops.
The clerk phoned City Attorney
biandford who said he would have to
look into the legal aspects of the case
before he could decide on the ques-
ton of issuing license to the Walla
Walla Stock & Grain Exchange.
