The New York Sun finds much to
commend in the address of Governor
Hughes at Chautauqua and says that
sin conception and purpose it is as re-
mote from politics, in the ordinary
sense of that word, as the thoughts and
deeds of this exceptional public SER
want have been at all times since he
shouldered his present job" In proof
it asks for a moments consideration of
these purely ethical, social, moral, non
political. Unconditional sentiments:
Confidence depends upon the as
surance of stability. By stability is not
meant fxity of things or relations, but
steadiness. 1t may be steadiness in
motion. Paradoxical as it may seem,
human society cannot be stable unless
it is progressive. That is because
growth and progress are the law of our
nature"
Reason demands the facts. By the
requirement of publicity is not meant
sensationalism or distorted emphasis"
Reason in it's rule of governmental
activities demands even, impartial and
consistent enforcement Of the law.

Educational Work at Central Maine Fair

Much has been said of late about making
our fairs of more educational value to those
who attend than they now are. Many have
said that if the people were given an oppor-
tunity to listen to practical talks on agricul-
tural subjects and view instructive exhibits
that they would do these things in prefer
ence to patronizing cheap shows and other
demoralizing features. To test this desire
of the public for better fair the College of
Agriculture of the University Of Maine and
the Central Maine Fair Association, cooper
atng together, will this year try the expert
ment of not only having the usual exhibit
but will also give lectures and demonstra-
lions each morning and afternoon of the
principal days of the fair. The exhibit in
itself will be interesting and instructive.
The fair management will erect 60 foot
round top tent, and in this tables for the
exhibits and seats for the audience during
the lectures will be placed. The exhibit
will be representative of the different de-
partments which comprise the College of
Agriculture, and will show the following
things: exhibit of corn; seed testing home
mixing of fertilizers, with chemicals and
mixing outfit the result of using good and
poor seed; pruning and grating imple-
ments; fruit; samples of good and bad
pruning samples of budding and grating !;
samples of shipping packages; bottles con-
tanning feeds fertilizers; insecticides; fun
gicides different kinds of forest and paper
mill products, models from the Veterinary
Science Museum; poultry house and trap
nest models showing the work of the Maine
Experiment Station along poultry lines;
mounted insects in the different stages of
their development; and large pictures of
the University campus and buildings. The
practical lectures and demonstrations ought
to be of value to the farmers of the STATED
The subjects and time at which they will
be given as follows: \

The disregard for law which Secretary
Of War Taft in recent interview de-
clared to be the greatest problem before
4he American nation is directly trace
able to the federation Of juvenile delin-
quencies. Offences which if committed
by older persons would be properly pun
5shed are rarely even rebuked in the
young. Property is wantonly destroyed
or stolen, gardens and orchards are raid
ed, and nothing is done about it, No one
wants to make a complaint that would
bring sorrow to parents and perhaps
entail the lifelong enmity Of neighbors
upon the complainant. Thus the juve-
nile offender grows to manhood imbued.
with a disregard for law which Secre-
tary Taft believes to be national men,
ace. AS to the remedy, he says it must
come through public opinion and educa-
ton in the States. 1t cannot be reach
ed by national legislation. The starting
point should be in the home, and the
morals as we'll as the education of the
pupils should have attention in the
schools. This would avert the juvenile
delinquencies which later develop into
crimes.

DR.. Geo. NJ. TWitchell in his weekly
letter to the Maine Farmer well says:
1t is amusing and at the same time
disgusting to see the struggles of the
political papers to make political CAPT
tai out of every petty word or act With
d campaign one year away why not help
solve some of the vexed questions Of
business, why not discuss crops and Ia
Dor with reference to prosperity and
give us a rest from financial issues. so
far fetched and tritling as to be ridicu-
!ous? This petty stuff seems to be the
entire stock in trade with certain pa
pers. When the time comes to fight
the campaign an issue will be forth
coming worthy of attention.
The Journal is probably classed as a
political paper, but it certainly is not,
and does not intend to be, in the class

certain technical reforms in your pro-
