that is now under way TO secure the

idea is to raise the money for this

an association for the management
of the property. AS is we'll known,
this property has been surveyed into
building lots, and unless the present

it may never again be available for
public purposes. 1t is of the utmost
importance, therefore, that our citi-

Democracy Opposed to Protection.

1t has been some time since the Wa
terville Sentinel asserted its belief in
"a reasonable protection" and even
went so far as to assert that to be the
belief Of 1.-THE Maine Democracy"
Since then the Maine Democracy has
been speaking for itself through the
columns of tie Rockland Opinion, the
Eastern Argus and the Lewiston Sun
with an emphasis that has made the
Sentinel look decidedly lonesome. In
deed there are growing indications
that it mas taken to the woods on its
former position, and is working up,
by small practice jumps. to 4 final leap
upon the free trade band wagon. Even
The genial Charles f. Allen, the sage
If Cedar Grove. has deserted it.
Why" asks Mr.. Allen in recent
communication to the Eastern Argus,
"ahnuld not Democratic papers fear
icssly advocate Il tariff for revenue
only without even hint at any sort
g protection rs it is falsely called
incidental or other?' Why indeed!
BY all means let the Democracy be
honest. Let it tell the farmers. the
manufacturers and the wage-earners
who are today prospecting under Il pro-
tective tariff as never before during
the past forty years, that it is abSo-
lutely opposed to the principle of pro-
lection and would promptly discard it,
if once it were successful in securing
control If the Federal government.
