John Kendrick Bangs, who is to speak
at the Chenery farm in Belmont on the
afternoon of Labor Day, is one of the
best known of living American authors
and as humorist ranks secoq only to
the immortal, Mark Twain. He. has
spent the summers in Maine for some
years and recently built fine cottage
at Ogunquit for permanent home and
has become citizen of this State and
is taking an active interest in its poll
cies. His first campaign speech, made
in York county, was an eloquent and
able effort and won the highest COM
mendation. In closing an address in
Saco last week he said of Mr.. Bryan:
"His hindsight is his most remarkable
quality. never think of Bryan with
out being reminded of poem, one of
the real gems in American poetry, and
yet did not write it. Iaughter). l
do not know who did, but l propose to
recite it to you and to ask you to take
it home with you:

But he hasn't any mind;
lie buZzes through existence
With his headlight on behind"

The Journal recently had mention of
a cement enterprise, with other side is
sues in which millions of foreign capital
were to be invested, and which was to
be located in Winterport, the home of
that public-spirited citizen, Hon. Fred
Atwood. The prospect was alluring;
and yet there were some doubtful fea-
lures about the proposition. The "for-
eign capitalists" who made their ap-
pearance in the wake of the promoter
were so extremely modest that they did
not permit their names and residences
to be known. Then, while at first it
appeared that Winterport had been Sc
lected as the site for an immense plant
because Of its natural advantages, later
the people of Winterport were told they
must chip in $4,000 and exempt the
works from taxation for twenty years.
Then it was suggested that Bangor
should take 100000 in stock of the
company as an evidence of good faith
and to offset the possible opposition of
rival companies. Here the matter seems
to have been dropped, and it is appar-
emily as illusory as others with which
we are more or less familiar. For ex-
ample, the people of a Waldo county
town were told no. long since by an
orator of the gold brick, green goods
type, that they could manufacture Port
land cement in their own door yards at
a cost of IS cents barrel and sell it for
So barrel; thus rivaIing the fortunes
(?) made in fake medicine concerns and
wild cat mining stocks. In this cOnnec-
ton some facts recently published in
a Bangor newspaper concerning the
manufacture of cement are of interest.
The natural Maine products for Port
land cement are pure limerick and clay,
taking approximately three times as
much limerick as clay. The latest pub
lished reports Of the United States Geo.
logical Survey give no deposits of lime
rock north of Belfast. .'Coal (of which
in the manufacture of Portland cement,
about one third in weight is used to that
of limerick and clay delivered in Maine
will cost about one dOllar per ton more
than to the Lehigh Valley Mills. Saw
ing in freight rates for Portland cement
delivered in New England offsets this,
but the Lehigh people have their Port
land cement materials on the mill-sltes
close by railroads or water routes.
Should not a Maine Portland cement
mill. to be success. have the same?"

HAVOC WITH DISCIPLINE.
Too Much Hospitality for the Fleets
officers.

SAN FRANCISCO. May 15.-San Fran
cisco's entertainment of the Atlantic fleet
is drawing to close. and the ships Will
set sail for Puget sound Monday morning.
The three days of steaming at sea are
looked forward to by the officers with
genuine pleasure as a relief from the
arduous social duties that recently have
been imposed upon them. The fleet has
been in home waters one month today.
and during all that time there has been
but two evenings of quiet and rest for
officers and men afforded by night steam
ing.
A solid month of banquets. balls. recep-
tions teas. parades. luncheons and other
entert tainments. while wonderfully ex-
pressve. of Caifornia's hospitality and
JOY cvc- the coming of the battIeship
squadrons has wrought havoc TO dis
cipline and efficiency aboard the vessels
of the Atlantic fleet Executive officers.
who In plain language are the active
managers of the various ships. are COM
planning Of conditions aboard and declare
that much of the splendid efficiency at
taine1 during the long cruise has been
almost wiped out by the relaxation tina:
set i'm. with the long line of entertain
ments.
The work that could be done with the
reduced forces the executive officers de-
clare is seriously interfered with by the
presence of the thousands of sights seers
aboard The officers realize the value OF
having the public see and become Inter
esteds in the navy. and they are very hos
pitable in their welcome to them. but at
the same time the disadvantage of inter-
rupted work and discipline on such
long tour of merrymaking and sishtsee-
ing as the past month has afforded stands
out forcibly in the minds Of the men VIII,
are responsible for efficiency and accom-
plishments.
The never-ending series of entertain
ments provided for officers have at times
practically robbed the feet of the pres
ence of commanding officers.
The entertainments have all been excep-
tionally attractive. and. coming at q
single port. would have been immensely
enjoyed. But in the mass of social ac-
tivities day after day. they have lost
their charm, and it Is only under detail
that officers attend the nowaday function.
On most of the ships the officers have
divided themselves into divisions to take
turns i'm meeting the exigencies of the
entertainments provided for them.
