The Issues in Maine.

The candidates of both parties are
now before the people. Both are farm
ers and grangers. Honors are easy on
that score. One stands for resubmis-
sion, and the other against it. One
stands for prohibition. The other has
poor opinion of the prohibitory law,
and inferentially he favors it's repeal
through repeal of the constitutional
amendment, and the substitution of
license and local option. One stands
for the principles of the Republican
party, which has given this State good
and progressive government for many
years. The other stands for the party
which by it's record and its professed
principles has been held in distrust by
the country and the State for "a long
time. 1t is for the people to take their
choice.
Moreover, this is the year of the
presidential election, and vote for
Fernald is vote for Taft. Portland

After certain jury had been out an
Unfortunately long time on very simple
case, they filed into the courtroom, and
the foreman told the judge they were
unable to agree upon verdict. The
latter rebuked them, saying the case
was a very clear one, and remanded
them back to the jury room for sec.

too long, 1 will have to send you in

The Barn in the Rain.

Gray barn and dragglad meadow,
Blurred green of grass and leaves,
The sky an awful shadow.
For on her gray face weaveS
The rain with silver threads,
That titck the muddy puddle,
That rattle on the sheds
Where the cold cattle huddle!
Then oh, the haymow soft
And deep and dark and warm,
On sweet hay piled aloft-
While overhead the Storm
Sweeps the wet shingles, drips
At caves, makes music wild
We listen: the soul slips
Years back and is a child.
Somehow as at the start
We turn from LIES hot foam,
Get in the Worlds warm heart,
Yea, make Eaith's heart our home!
And lie there warm, secure,
Yea, as child of five,
Heart cleanSed, serene and pure
And glad to be alive.

Emery neet, has arrived at Port Spain.
! trinidad. from the Gold Coast, Africa.
| Members of the crew believed that the
Vessel vas pursued by hoodoo, while
the officers say that i'll luck has follow
ed the bark since her arrival on the
west coast last April.
While at Cape Coast Castle. on the
African coast, John NJ. Lockwood. the
second mate, died from the effects of
snnstroke. He joined the vessel before
she sailed from New York, and was
very capable officer. Lockwood was a
native of Port Williams, n s., where
he leaves a mother and two sisters.
Another sister resides in this city.
On the passage from Africa to Port
Spain, Carroll Bray, the captains son,
who was making the round trip on the
vessel, was taken i'll and died. The
heart broken father bad to prepare the
boys body for burial at sea- The young
man was 20 years OF age, and lived with
his parents at Milbridge, Me.
Before the bark reached Port Spain
Capt. John H. Bray became i'll, and on
reaching port he cabled the owners in
this city that he was too sick to con-
tinue in command, and requested to be
relieved.
Capt. W. NJ. Coombs of Islesboro has
started for Trinidad to take charge of
the vessel, which will load for Balti-
more.
While the nature of the disease that |
caused the death of young Bray and |
afterward attacked the father is not |
known, it is thought that it may have |
been African fever, which makes trad |
ing on the African coast extremely |
1t is the usual custom of |
not to allow any of the crew !

Capt. Bray is well known in shipping
circles in this city, having commanded |

BRYAN THE CROCODILE.

As an eeotist, today Bryan can give
Roosevelt cards and spades. He IS
drunk with power and surcharged with
malice against every human being who
has ever stood in the way OF full graft
| fication of his Unsuitable ambition
Doubtless he resented in some degree
the thought of Judge Parker winning
even the slightest appreciation from MS
| convention but this was not the under
| lying motive of his unseemly interior
ence with the plan to pay proper tribute
| to the late honored President. because
Cleveland refused to support him, Bry-
an declared over his signature That
Cleveland secured his own nomination
by secret bargain with hnanclers;
that he spent the largest campaign
fund any party ever collected; that he
filled his cabinet with corporation
agents; that he appointed railroad law
yers to the Supreme Court; and that,
having debauched his party, he stabbed
it to death to prevent its return to the
paths of virtue Only four years ago
he shouted from the platform IN Ur-
bana, Ohio:
''The Democrats in 1892 played con-
fidence game on the people and put
bunco steerer at the head of the party
Bryan hated Cleveland then, he hates
him now; he loathed him living, he
loathes him dead. He is, moreover. in
the full flush of personal power, insane
ly jealous of Cleveland's fame.
Every word spoken in praise of Cleye-
land as man of character and convlc-
ton is gall and wormwood to Bryan.
So it is easy to understand why he
would permit no suitable tribute to be
paid to the first of Democrats OF his
generation, why he refused to recognize
merit in any party leader other than
himself, and why he bathed resolutions
so inadequate as to be almost insulting
with the tears of the crocodile. When
the ballots shall have been counted in
November, we shall be able to deter
mine how many men who honored and.
loved Grover Cleveland could find 1t in
their hearts to vote for William J. Bry-

CHRIS SCHWALM
One of Leading Meat Men Tells
Of What Happened Two
Years Ago.

While the Wholesale meat business in
Richfnond Is of recent development in
comparison with the cotton and to-
baco industries, no history of the city
would now he complete without refer
enee to 1t. Likewise. no mention of
this business would be complete with
out saying something about that par
ticular line carried on by Chris George
Schwalm, of 2312 Grove Avenue whose
recent strides have placed him in the
foremost rank OF successful men = in
Richmond.
And yet" said Mr.. Schwalm. "T
found out couple Of years ago that
i was in such condition that / could
not attend to my work as ! should. i
was u victim OF fearful headaches. my
eyes began to trouble me; I could mel
Their read nor write with comfort. and
] soon realized that IL ! intended to
keep at my business / would have to
do something for my eyesight-and
mighty quick. too
my wife had also been suffering
considerably with her eyes. having neu-
ralgia and pains through the head; so
both of us decided to consult Charles
Lincoln Smith. who was in Richmond
at that time, and have our eyes attend
ed to.
Charles Lincoln Smith did wonders
for both OF US. My headaches left me
entirely. and thanks to the glasses
given me by Charles Lincoln Smith J
was Immediately enabled to read and
write with perfect satisfaction.
What he did for my wife Is equally
remarkable. His glasses so strength
ened her vision that the neuralgia
ceased. and now her eyesight is fine.
