Twenty-si delegates met in Portland
convention, nominating full State
ticket, congressman, and delegates to
the national convention to be held in
Columbus, Ohio, July 18th. The can
didate for Governor is Henry Woodward
of Winthrop, and for Congress from the
Sd district, w. l. Sterling of Waterville.
Resolutions were adopted favoring ma
tional prohibition, recognizing that the
liquor question is in politics and must be
dealt with through political party, and
recommending that the voters investi-
gate the platform of all the political
parties before voting and to "vote with
the party that means what it means"
As two years ago the Prohibition vote
was less than one percent of the total
vote the party lost its place on the
official ballot, and a petition with 1000
S signatures must be obtained before the
party is officially recognized The
speeches were optimistic. Rev. S. e.
Emerson of Skowhegan, who presided,
said that che believed that our Heaven
" Father regards the Prohibition party
with greater favor than he does the Re-
publican party or any other party" and
that at is up to the Prohibitionists to
fight the money and liquor power which
seeks to make Maine a State OF high
license or no license at ALL" Rev. Mr..
Lukins, who represented the national
committee, said: 1.-THE Prohibition
party Is the only national party today.
The Democratic party is party of the
South and the Republican party of the
North, but the Prohibition party knows
no section" He thought it not only
possible that they might carry two or
three states, but that it is also possible
to elect Prohibition President.
An article in the May number of The
Atlantic Monthly on prohibition in
the South, affords little encouragement
to the cause of national prohibition.
The writer shows conclusively that the
sIfad of anti-saloon sentiment all over
the comfy, and of State prohibition in
the South dos, not point to consider
able increase of te Prohibition vote in
national politics. 1e writer says;
In towns and cities ilwnlcn tne cues

ceive that the local saloon injuF F. . ne,gn-
boring property, increases crime VOL em ths
Workingmen to indulgence, mafen .o Sno
streets insecure, and menaces the - o ".
ing boy. So they vote to get rid I. w
but they would not vote for State w W.
hlbition. Still less would they vote W.
the Prohibition party at national els
ton.
AS to the members of the Southern
legislatures who have enacted prohibi-
ton it is said that they are not Prohibi-
tionists so far as national politics are
concerned, but are still, practically all
of them, Democrats.

Mrs. Robert Tapley and daughter, Miss
Hattie s., of West Brooksvile, Me-, were
guests of Capt. Ira Tapley of the steamship
Princess Anne last Sunday in Brooklyn.
These ladies spent the winter with their
son and brother, Capt. Robert E. Tapley. at
Norfolk, Va, and left Monday evening by
train for their far eastern home. Mrs. Tap
ley is the widow of Capt. Robert Tapley, so
many years in the ship Hattie e. Tapley,
making several voyages with him to foreign
ports. These are old friends of the editor
Of the Marine Journal, and our memory
goes back to the time when Capt. Tapley
and his wife were the envy of the seagoing
fraternity i'll their happiness on board this
trim little ship, in which he was large
owner. We were inclined to rebel at the
fate which separated this happy couple SO
early in life through the death of Capt.
Tapley. The legacy of devoted daughter
and an abundant competency left his
widow, however. to comfort her in her de-
clning years, makes it easier for her to say

Yesterday morning Sheriff Schra
der was notified by l. B. Griffiths, n
well known ranchman residing near
the town of New Castle, to keep on
the lookout for a gray mare and a
colt which had been stolen from his
ranch some time Sunday night.
Sheriff Schrader at once put his
deputies in different parts of the
county on the alert, and he person.
ally started investigations to see If
the stolen horses were in this vicin-
ity.
Yesterday afternoon Sheriff Schra-
der was notified that two strange men
with number of horses were seen
on the road in the Plateau canon,
headed toward Palsade. Sheriff
Schrader sent two deputies up the
Plateau canon, and. at a very early
hour this morning, they came upon
a camp near the road. in which
man was sleeping and near which
were tied gray mare and colt in ev-
cry way answering the description of
the stolen animals. The man was
aroused and placed under arrest. He
and the horse and colt were taken
to Palisade
The man was very indignant over
being arrested. When asked where
the night the other horses that were
being, taken along strayed away from
the camp, and had started back to-
ward New Castle, and that his part
ner had gotten up and was trailing
the horses. This statement is known
to be true, and Under Sheriff Wallis
and another officer started up the
canon road to locate the other man,
and is believed that they will get him
before night.
Sheriff Schrader went to Palisade
this morning and brought the man
under arrest to Grand Junction. He
is now in the Mesa county Jail. He
stated that his name is Hardy Fuller.
He frankly declared that he is an ex-
convict, but declared that after he
had served his time he took up
preaching" and had led an honest life
and had been strictly on the square,
ever since.
He said that he had lived at New
Castle, but on Sunday got on a train
and started to beat his way to Cisco,
Utah. He said he was thrown off the
train at Rifle and soon after met up
with man from New Castle with
whom he had a speaking acquaint-
ance) with a number of horses and
two good saddles, and he declares
that the man insisted on him travel
ing over the country with him. $50

of age and from all appearances he

it was impossible to enforce it. In
stead of being wholesome instru-
ment for good" it has been almost
useless, so far as the protection of
the public is concerned, for the trusts
have grown in number, in strength
and in arrogance, at the very time
when the republican party was boast
ing of its enforcement of the law
The steel trust was formed immed-
lately after the election of 1900, and
a prominent republican said, in a
speech soon after, thai 1t might have
prevented a republican victory If IT

Most of the trusts have never
been disturbed, and those that have
been prosecuted have not had their
business seriously interrupted. The
president has done something toward
the enforcement of the law but not
nearly enough, ana the republican
leaders have thwarted him at every
point. Finally the president became
so exasperated that he sent to con-
eress a message which shocked re-
publican leaders by the fierceness of
its denunc.ation of the predatory in
terests. The very convention that
spoke in its platform of the admin
istraton as "a wise ana fearless one"
was composed largely of the senators
and members of congress who boldly
opposed every effort to free the peo-

A Deserved Arraignmcnt.


In opening his speech Mr.. Bryan
said:
Nowhere does the republican par
ty show its indifference to real re-
form more than in its treatment of
the trust question. Here is the re-
publican platform:
"'The republican party passed the
Sherman antitrust law over demo-
cratic opposition and enforced it af-
ter democratic derelictiop. 1t has
been a wholesome instrument for
good in the hands of a wise and fear
less administration But experience
has shown thar it's effectiveness can
be strengthened and its real objects
better attained by Sucn amendments
as will give to the federal govern
ment greater supervision and con-
troll over, and secure greater publicity
in, the management of that class of
corporations engaged in Interstate
commerce, having power and oppor-
tunity to affect monopolies.
"The Sherman antitrust law was
passed eighteen years ago; 1t has Il
criminal clause which provides a. PEN
itentiary punishment for those who
conspire together in restraint OF
trade. Ever since the enactment of
the law, with the exception of four
years. the republican party has con-
trolled the executive department of
the government. and, during two
years of the four. it controlled the
house of representatives Instead of
democratic dereliction. the democrat
ic party has been urging, year after
year, the strict enforcement of that
law. and the republican party has
