generally. People ask why the king,
who goes to Biarritz next month and
consequently will have to traverse
Paris then, should have taken the;
trouble to come to Paris just now, ac-
companied by the queen, to spend eight
days here.
AZ Curb on the Kaiser.
1t is realized that the visit is Wis
ible evidence of France English friend
ship and it is regarded as significant
that this practical reminder Of their
unity of views is given Immediately
after the approval by the German cleo
torate of the kaiser's weltpolitik, and
follows close on the heels of the an
nouncement that marriage is cOntem-
plated which is expected to prove a
bond of union between Germany and
Russia.
Now the kaiser's policy of expan-
sion may again threaten French inter-
ests as it did in Morocco and the
Russo German marriage might affect
Franco-Russian friendship. In either
of the two cases it is important to
France that she should be in a position
to rely upon the support of friendly
power and the entente cordiale with
England provides her with such an as
surance. King Edwards visit thus be-
comes a political manifestation of
much significance, as it emphasizes the
fact that no matter what direction may
be given to the German weltpolitik, no
matter what may be the outcome of the
German Irritation with Russia, the An
glo- French entente cordiale still re-
mains a substantial guarantee of peace
in Europe.

were present and who trooped in
early in the evening bringing with
them in honor of the occasion a num-
Der of gifts in which were included
handsome sideboard, dining chairs and
a rocking chair. The presentation
speech was made by John F. Spauid-

TO the Editor of The Herald:
Bath has suffered little from the gener-
al financial conditions. There appear TO
be no lasting effects and the city is look
ing forward toward enjoying Il good wini-
ter. Little shortage of money is notice
able and that feeling of depression winch
might tend to create hard times seems
conspicuous by its absence.
The Bath Trust Company, which closed
on Oct %, has been found to be sound.
The control has been transferred to FOCAL
business men and it is expected the COM
rany will open its doors the first OF next
week, stronger than ever.
The principal industry of this city. mat
Of ship building. is being carried on
steadily and earnestly. The yards are
better filled than they We're a year ago.
especially the wooden yards. The sum-
mer business has been of very pros
porous nature. and has resulted In there
being more money than usual here at this
time of the year.
The materials used in the construction
of ships have reached n lower figure than
that of any recent year Hard pine, steel
and iron, which until a year ago had IN
creased in price. going higher than the
freight, now having returned to a nor
malIy low figure leads to the belief that
there will be plenty of contracts IN the
future It is a popularity of the ship
building industry that when the country
seems most prosperous this business is
quiet but on the other hand. when there
comes a period of decline in the money
market there is larger demand for the
output of the yards
The farmers of this vicinity have been
getting good prices for their products.
Milk is selling at a better figure than
has been known in years. Generally. the
farmer is getting a bigger price for that
which he produces, and he finds a ready
sale for all he produces. The farms OF
Bath and surrounding country pay well
for thrift, and the men who own them
are progressive, taking advantage OF new
ideas and modern methods. with the re-
suit that they are raising substantial
crops. The animal-raising industry has
increased and larger stocks than nave
been known in years are being "intered
in barns we'll filled with fodder.
The working man of Bath receives
good wages in proportion to the cost oil
living here There seems to be enough
work for all and. with these promising
prospects, the city looks confidently for
ward to a generally comfortable winter
