The Fairbrother Block Remodelled.

A considerable change has taken
place in the Fairbrother block on
Water street since its purchase by
Forrest Goodwin, Esq, some months
since. The basement and lower floor
have been rebuilt to a considerable
extent and leased to the firm of Green
Brothers for ten cent store and is
already occupied by them, the por-
ton made use of by Thorndike &
Reynolds for their barbering estab
lishment being reserved.
The second floor front is now. being
refitted and made ready for the law
offices of the owner. In this change
a stairway is being put in between the
west wall and the Philbrick block.
At the second floor this will open into
a hallway from which will open the
three rooms of the Office suite. OF
these the two rooms overlooking the
street will be twelve by twenty and
seventeen by twenty four feet re-
spectively, the private Office in the
rear being about nine and one half by
seventeen and one half feet in size
In the nearly twenty years that Mr.,
Goodwin has been practicing law he
has, with the exception of short
period when he owned the Went
worth block, with his own offices on
the second floor been tenant, and
it is to be supposed, now that he has
become his own landlord, that he will
have quarters quite to mis- liking.
The plans and the work thus far done
on them indicate that offices of the
most up to date sort will be the result.
There is large amount of unoc-
cupied room at the rear in the second
story, and the whole of the third
story Just what use of this will be
made is as yet undetermined. A
steam heating plant has been install
ed sufficient in capacity to heat the
ubola blook

The 10th anniversary of the institu-
ton of Skowhegan Lodge, No. 10, h.

Justice had been done the many good

POSTMASTER, II. j. Phillips, chancellor

Growing Temperance Sentiment.

Conditions governing traffic in in
toxicating liquors in many portioni
of New England become considerably
disturbed on the first of May, wher
changes in local option take effect
and temperance workers are point
ing TO the general situation as ar
index of spreading sentiment against
the saloon. In Massachusetts. by
changes in six cities and IS towns, 21C
licensed places, or 10 per cent Of the
total numbe must abandon the liuuor
business at II O'Clock Thursday
night. In Vermont only q cities and
towns will legalize the sale Of liquor
this year as compared with 81 license
cities and towns five years ago, when
local option took the place Of State
prohibition. In New Hampshire an
important ruling takes effect on Nav
list, whereby druggists licenses
throughout the State Will be abolished
and in Rhode Island the temperance
interests have just succeeded in
floating restrictive liquor legislation
through the House of Represents
tives.
OF the other New England States
contributing new phases to the
general license situation in this
section, Vermont is interesting be
cause of the peculiar showing made
in its five years trial of local option.
After May LIST in only q out of the
246 cities and towns of the State will
the sale of liquor be legal. When
given their first opportunity TO
decide the question locally in 1903,
80 cities and towns voted Eyes"
The last elections were character
lied in many small majorities for
license.
The church and temperance socie-
ties consider that the trial of the
local option law has been to its
tions, including the State Grange,
are seeking to have the question of
State prohibition resubmitted to the
people.
In New Hampshire a new ruling of
the State license commissioners goes
into effect May LIST, whereby no
licenses will be issued to druggists in
no. license towns for medicinal,
InSCHduICdl VI bdCI dlltAOdl pun pOsCS,
it is considered probable that the
commissioners will issue licenses
allowing druggists to fill physicians
prescriptions, but as yet they have
made no formal announcement. The
commissioners explain that they
were led TO make their ruling by
a showing OF official statistics that in
one year druggists in no-license
cities and towns, sold upon oertifi-
cate, for the uses named above, liquor
to the value of 1855, 900.
In Rhode Island the sentiment
against liquor selling has taken form
in the passage by the House of
Representative of bill containing
restrictions, including the limiting of
licenses to one for every 500 of the
population. This would have the
effect of reducing the present number
of ,26o licenses by 427. The bill may
be lost in the Senate.

a sentence of life imprisonment in
the State prison was imposed in the
supreme court last Tuesday at
Houlton, on Juan Robens alias Jack
Roberts, who at the September term
of court at his second trial on the
charge WAS convicted of the murder
of J. Edgar Dickinson, Smyrna
Mills farmer. Dickinson was shot
through the head early on the morn
ing of Oct. Is, 1906, while standing
alone in his kitchen. The first trial
resulted in a disagreement, but at
the second trial the state was sue
cessful in its prosecution. Counsel
for Robens appealed on exceptions 20
a ruling OF the presiding Judge but
the appeal was dismissed from the
law court for want OF prosecution,
the respondent having decided to
take his sentence.

Maine Methodist Appointments.

The s4th Maine Methodist Confer
ence, in session in Augusta last week
and over the Sabbath, came to close
with the morning session of Monday,
and the members left for the various
homes. The announcement of the
appointments was the chief feature
of the brief session on Monday morn
ing. In the Augusta district, in
which is embodied the several Somer-
set towns, the appointments were as
follows: Bingham supplied by G. c.
Beedy; Fairfield, j. II. Roberts; Mad
ison, D. F. Faulkner; Mercer, c. o.
Perry; North Arson, c. II. Young;
Scion, W. A. Meservey; Skowhe gan,
f. A. Leitch.
The Somerset reporter., 1908-04-30

As is we'll known, the usual custom
and until recently the invariable rule,
was to limit the service of a pastor to
three years i'll any church, but the de-
mand for the return of Mr.. Leitch for
fourth year was unanimous and SO
earnest that the Conference acceeded
to it as being in the best interest of
both pastor and people. Mr.. Leitch
is always full of energy for the up
building of his society and the broad
ening of its usefulness and his faith
full labors have become appreciated
by the members of the Centenary
Parish.

The high rate of interest for money
hasn't lessened the confidence of the
people in the stability and profitable
ness of investments in real estate.
Real estate in our larger towns and
cities has also kept right up in price;
in fact it hasn't been SO high in sew
eral years as it now is.

To Celebrate St. Johns Day.

Prominent Knights Templar repre-
senting the Communicates of Show
hogan, Waterville, Augusta and
Gardiner, met in Waterville Thurs
day to make the preliminary plans
for a field day of these four Masonic
bodies on ST. Johns day. The plan
is for the Sir Knights of these four
Communicates to unite in an outing
on Wednesday, June "a, making it
not formal pilgrimage with Templar
pomp and dignity, but an outing to
the sea-shore. 1t was voted to make
Portland harbor the objective point
of the day, and a subcommittee of
four WAS named to make arrange
ments about the special train, shore
dinner, music, etc. Most of the
Communicates of the state will make
excursions on that day. Those of
Lewiston and Bath will be enter
tanned by that at Rumford Falls !;
those of Ellsworth, Rockland, Bel
fast and Camden will enjoy the day
together at Crescent beach; the two
Portland Communicates will go to the
Bay of Naples; that at Biddeford will
go to Rangeley; and so those of
Watervile, Skowhegan, Augusta and
Gardiner also propose to make it a
red letter day in the summer. 1t is
expected that between 200 and 300
Sir Knights of these four COM
manderies will take in the trip and
the committee expects TO make it an
occasion to be remembered.

talk the other day to tome represen

which he said, referring to the Indian:

The Somerset reporter., 1908-04-30

Bangor COMMERCIAL: Maine has
had many sad reminders that small
villages of wooden buildings, with
inadequate means for fire protection,
are often subject to disastrous con-
fagrations. To the long list, which
in the last few years has included Lis
bon, Richmond, Harrison, Milford,
Pembroke and many others, is now to
be added Brooks, which suffered from
a heavy fire, for so small a village,
early Thursday morning. Eight or
nine buildings, including stores, the
postoffice and dwelling houses, in
volving loss of some S25, 600 is a
hard blow for a small town. Unfor-
tunately there appears no practical
remedy against these fires other than
constant care and reasonable insur-
ance A small village, without wa
ter system, is at the mercy of the
flames any day or night; while vol
unteer fire company-a bucket bri-
gade-unless in good discipline, is
often Intellectual when the fire really
takes place. Fire protection for
small villages of wooden buildings is
one of the important problems for
our Maine towns to solve.

Mr.. Hinsdill Parsons, one of the
directors of the Knick erbocker Trust
Co., New York, bears such striking
resemblance to Abraham Lincoln that
the likeness is a matter of frequent
comment wherever he goes. Not
long ago he received these lines from
a clerical friend:
When Gabriel blows his trumpet on that day
That mountains melt and earth shall pass
away.
And Abraham Lincoln, marching there with
you,
Shall pass before the trumI eter 5 fall view,
1t seems to me IT will be hard for Gabe
To tell which one is Hinsdill which is Abe.

Widows Pension Bill.

No better example of the changing
public attitude toward large national
expenditures could be afforded than
the small degree of attention which
the widows pension bill, signed yes
terday by the President, has attracted.
Although it will add s13, 900, 600 a
year to the pension roll, its passage
has been almost unnoticed. It's cost
comes in raising to twelve dollars a
month pensions now OF lower rating,
rather than in adding any large num-
Der of original claimants. The new
law wisely applies only to widows
who were married before June %,
1890. That restriction deprives OF
any increased gratuity the youthful
adventures who now marries a Civil
War veteran nearing the end of his
days, in order to qualify" as a life
long pensioner.-Boston Transcript.

The Rural Schools.

The force of teachers for the Skow-
hogan rural schools is now complete,
the assignments being as follows;
Malbons Mills, Mrs. Della Sanford F.;
Dudley Corner, Leon Smiley; Lake
George, Miss Daisy Thurston; Par
ker, Miss Bertha Lewis; Riverside,
Miss Marjory Salley; Blunt, Mrs.
Eta Merrill; Pitts, Miss Mary Went
worth; Bigelow Hill, Miss Daisy
Snow. The school in the Snow dis
trict, which had been closed for the
past four or FIVE years, has now been
reopened and will be taught by
Robert Merrill. 1t seems that two
families, both from the northern
part of Aroostook county, with six
children in each family, have recently
moved into the neighborhood and
this, with the pupils previously
living there, makes sufficient NUM-
Der for a good school.
