is a medium between the two, capital
is essential, labos is also essential and
the fight between the two is to be de-
plored No sympathy was expressed
for the Sages and Rockefellers in
their greed, and some methods should
be adapted TO prevent such accumu-
lations of wealth which has been un-
justly taken from the people. There
is a great field before the Grange to
meet and adjust in an organized way
the great problems before us as a
common people.
Selection by the band and State
Master Gardiner was introduced.
The patrons of Somerset are always
glad to meet with their state master.
His remarks as usual were along
Grange lines and Grange work; after
abiding to the remarks of the Ohio
state master and the Grange work be-
ing accomplished in that state, the
state master made known something
of the wide field of work the Grange
was doing in Maine and how rapidly
it was increasing in numerical
strength and influence. The century
just starting in will more and more
demand patriotism, force and educa-
tional power. The Grange will be
called upon to continue in it's efforts
for good, and will have to settle the
great problems that confront the far
mer and his business. 1t must be true
to its principles and there is no such
thing as fail.
B. F. w. Thrope, editor of the
Maine Farmer, was the last speaker.
He met here at this place for the
first time and was glad to see the pa
irons of Somerset county. He advo-
Gated cooperation on the part of the
Grange and the farmers. Mr. Thrope
was obliged to be brief in his interest
ing remarks as the time was limited.
On the whole, this Field day will GO
on record az one of our very best
Every body enjoyed it and the smiling
faces everywhere seen proved that
everyone was happy. Great credit is
due the Somerset Traction company
for doing SO much towards the success
of the day. The artistic display at the
stand, with "old Glory" waving its
fair folds in the breeze. The courte-
sizes rendered the patrons by Mr.. II.
L. SWEET and his subordinates and the
excellent car service together with
the inspiring music furnished by the
band, each and all are greatly appre-
ciated by the patrons of Somerset
county and their friends who were
present S. F. f.

Father Rasle's Cross.

In view Of the interest aroused by
the exercises at Old Point, on Thurs
day Of last week, it may be mention
ed that the cross, which vas IN
doubtedly worn by Father Sebastian
kasle, the Catholic Priest who was
murdered at that place BY the New
England settlers in 1924, is now in
the possession Of A. E. Bison Of this
place.
Mr.. Bison and others made an ex-
cursion 70 Old Point in the summer Of
1882, and II searching in the sandy
soil near the base Of the monument
unearthed several relics, one Of them
being the cross Ia question. Mr..
Bison purchased il 4 the finder for
small sum before the adhering soil
was removed. On reaching home
the cross was carefully cleaned and
Mr. Bison realized that he had be
come possessed Of a relic Of great
value. II is Of coral, inlaid with gold,
and the four extremities are carved
sigma, indicating that it could have
been worn only by some nigh digni
tary of the Jesuit order. A few years
later Mr. Bison took the cross with
him to Montreal and submitted it 70
members of the Jesuit clergy there
who were familiar with the minutest
details Of the early history of their
order. They knew, Of course, Of the
fact that Father Rasle took orders as
Jesuit Priest in France in the 18th
century and, after careful study of
the cross, declared that it was Just
the form which was then conferred
by the order of Jesuits. This fact,
together with the circumstance that
it was found near the monument,
upon the ground where Father Rasle
was known TO have lost his life,
makes it practically certain that the
cross was once possessed and worn
by this famed historical character.
Mr.. Bison cherishes the cross of
great interest and value and his cid
est son, Sebastian. Is named for the
famous priest by whom it was once
worn.

Accident on Somerset Ry.

A broken switch caused two gravel
cars to break loose from a work train
on the Somerset branch of the Maine
Central Railroad and caused lot of
inconvenience and delay Sunday af-
ternoon.
The train was hauling gravel from
Sandy Point up the side of the noun
tain, when the two rear cars broke
away and, owing to the steep grade
at this point, started toward Bingham.
They gained Roadway at every revo-
luton of the wheels. At Camp Fore,
three miles below the Point, car
containing the big steam pillow was
left standing, and into this the cars
came at full speed. In the crash that
followed two of the cars were hurled
from the irons and the third was
partially destroyed. No one was on
either of the cars.
A wrecking train was sent for and
proceeded at once to the scene of the
disaster. The wreck was only a
short distance above Deadwater and
delayed rain 1855, which leaves kineo
at LOS, nearly three hours, thus
making connections with the express
at Oakland impossible. A special
was sent to Oakland to meet the
train and connections were made on
the Eastern division with No. lao

The Kennebec Journal augusta
says:
Councillor Charles d. Newell has
returned from Canaan, where he was
called TO see some State paupers by
the name of futile. A family consist
ing of James S. Tuttle, his wife and
two children, were found in an 8x10
house, consisting of one room. Mr.
futile claims that he is unable to
work, but by inquiry it was found
that he was able to use 80 cents
worth OF tobacco each week, bought
with money he was able to earn
somehow. Just above his place is
another shanty of larger dimensions,
occupied by his father, James N.
Tutt1e, and his family, consisting of
whom, a son, is deaf and dumb, totally
blind in one eye and partially in the
other, and in addition to those disa-
bilities is affected with eczema, his
body being covered with blotches.
About half mile distant lives an
other son of Mr.. futile, who is also
a State pauper. Mr.. Williams, the
chairman of the overseers of the poor,
has been doing all that could be done
for the unfortunate young man, and
the physician having the case in
charge is confident that the patient
will improve.
