Glidden party will pass Sunday in
Boston instead of at Poland Spring
and make the run from Boston to
Poland Spring on Monday instead of
on Saturday as earlier arranged. This
means that they will go through Az

MAINE EDITORIAL COMMENT.
Campaign Questions.
1T .aN-icton Jo1lrpall

The campaign of detraction has
been invoked in Maine by the Maine
democrats. campaign of small
personalities.
They resolve themselves to one
question-What sort of man is the
Republican candidate? Is he able,
honest. fair minded, of clean life and
character. sincere and purpOseful?
The answer to this is found in the
successful life, the high ideals and the
honest purposes of the Republican
candidate. Maine Republicans may
rest content in their nominee.
In turn they may ask of the de-
tractors rs your own house in order?"

Bryan, beaten in 1896 by 6O1,S1o
votes and in 1900 by S49,790 votes, is
again put up for the Presidency,
despite his record of defeat. To be
consistent, the Democratic party has
associated with him, and charged with
the specific task of carrying Indiana
a twice defeated candidate for Gov
ernor of that state.
John w. Kern fell 23.163 votes short
of success in 1900 and S4,364 in 1904,
and these are the two worst defeats
ever sustained by a HoosieE Guber-
Material candidate. His experience in
public affairs has been confined to
service in the Legislature and as city
attorney of Indianapolis, and to several
unsuccessful quests for higher office.

The Only Safe Assumption.

(F'rom the Syracuse Post-Standard.)
Bryans election as President is a
very remote possibility, but the situa-
ton which the campaign will develop
is likely to be one in which Republican
party managers and voters can ill
different.
Every element of strength the
Republican party can muster should
be arrayed against Bryan. TO assume
that all of the party strength will be
needed is the only perfectly safe as
sumption in the national campaign
soon to open.

1t is of interest to note that Obadiah
was one of the minor prophets and
that his story was the quickest told of
all those who contributed books to the
Old Testament. His name, according
to the Biblical authorities, signifed
servant of Yahweh." These things
bring up pertinent questions about the

be told, but who is the Yahweh of the

The trustees Of the Portland water
district instead of attempting at this
time to float bonds of the district will
issue the notes of the district for a
temporary loan of approximately 81
UOO. OO0. 1t is believed that this is not
the most favorable time for issuing the
bonds of the water district for long
period but money can be had temper
arily at very reasonable rates The
loan may be made for period of
eight or nine months which will give
the bond market a chance to improve
a little and will also give the trustees
opportunity to consider the matter
more thoroughly. The accounting and
the final adjustment of the amount
which is to be paid for the water plant
will be determined within a few weeks.
Chairman Griffin when asked if the
trustees were to make any immediate
attempt to improve the water plant by
the construction of main to Sebago
lake or to replace mains in the streets
of Portland. said that start would be
made this year but may not actually
be commenced before another season.
AroOstook county has been favored
with unusually good weather for farm
ing SO far this season, and the farmers
are we'll pleased with the prospects.
There has been just enough rain to
help the crops along and keep them i'll
good condition. The longest spell of
dry weather was during the past week,
and that was broken by good fall of
rain Monday night. This dry weather
did not effect the crops. however. The
farmers in that section are now making
hay, and in most places it looks unu-
suaily good. If good weather reigns
here during the next few days, there
should be a large and excellent crop.
1t will compare favorably with that of
any years past, and certainly will be
far ahead of the 1907 crop. Last year
this section was visited by many
showers, and as a result the crop of
hay was very poor. The gardens are
looking good, and the short spell Of dry
weather last week had little or no eff
feet on them. There is every reason to
expect a good crop of vegetables this
fall. On the whole. the farmers and
business men of Aroostook county are
feeling good over the outlook for crops
and for prosperous business this fall.
