Economy Of Administration.

The Republican congress, in the ses.
sion just ended, has made appropria.
lions amounting to S1,OOS,00O exceed.
ing the total expenditures of the last
fiscal year by S90,000,000, and leaving
a deficit of more than $60,0O0,O00 for
the fiscal year. We denounce the
needless waste of the peoples money,
which has resulted in this appalling in
crease, as a shameful violation of ak
prudent conditions of government, as
no less than a crime against the mil.
lions of worhingmen and women from
whose earnings the great proportion
of these colossal sums must be extort.
ed, through excessive tariff exactions
and other indirect methods. 1t is not
surprising that in the face of this
shocking record the Republican plat.
form contains no reference to econom-
ical administration or promise thereof
in the future. We demand that a stop
be put to this frightful extravaganza,
and insist upon the strectest economy
in every department consistent with

people cannot safely ontrust the execu.
ton of this important work to a party
which is so deeply obligated TO the
highly protected interests as is the Re.
publican party. We call attention TO
the significant fact that the promised
relief was postponed until after the
coming election, an election to succeed
In which the Republicans must have
that same support from the beneficial.
ries of the high protective tariff. as
IL has always heretofore received from
them; and to the further fact that du.
ring years of uninterrupted power no
such action whatever has been taken
by the Republican congress to correct
the admittedly existing tariff iniqut
ties.
We favor immediate revision of the
tariff by the reduction OF import du.
ties Articles entering into compe.
tition with trust-controlled products
should be placed on the free list, and
material reductions should be made
in the tariff upon the necessaries of
life, especially upon articles compel.
Ing with such American manufactures
as are sold abroad more cheaply than
at home, and graduate reductions
should be made in such other SEIZED
ules as may be necessary to restore
the tariff to revenue basis.
Existing duties have given to the
manufacturers of paper a shelter be.
hind which they have organized COM
blnations to raise the price of pulp and
paper. thus imposing tax upon the
spread of knowledge.
We demand the immediate repeal
of the tariff on pulp print paper, lum.
ber timber and logs, and that these ar
tlcles be placed upon the free list.

The Rights Of States.

Believing, with Jefferson, in "the
support of the state governments in
all their rights as the most competent
administration for our domestic con.
Germs, and the surest bulwark against
anti-Repubiican tendencies" and in
the preservation of the general gov.
eminent in its whole constitutional
vigor as the sheet anchor of our peace
at home and safety abroad, we are
opposed to the Capitalization implied
in the suggestions now frequently
made, that the powers of the general
government should be extended by ex.
ecutive and legislative action and by
judicial construction. There is no tw.
light zone between the nation and the
statein which the exploiting interests
can take refuge from both, and il Is
as necessary that the Federal govern.
ment shall exercise the powers dele
gated to 1t as to thatrdluaoimwyp
gated to it as it is that the state gov.
ernments shall use the authority re.
served to them, but We insist that the
Federal remedies for the regulation
of interstate commerce and for the
prevention of private monopoly shall
be AIDED to, and not substituted for
state remedies.

till the bill is reported" the converse
ton continues, land wish was at
liberty to state the case to you little
more specifically. We are still hoping to
get that bill out in few days, and nothing
is finally settled till the final vote is
taken"
For that big public building bill, carry
ing some twenty-odd millions OF appro-
priations, is still in the committee pigeon
hole, and members will not allow Chair
man Bartholdt or Gov. Burleigh, or any
others who have to do with its making,
alone as long as there is a forlorn
hope of getting something more for the
folks at home. 1t means more than better
accommodations for the transaction OF
government business; it means votes,
much needed votes in the close congress
sional districts. Some day soon the bill
will come out; some members will be
exultant. and some will be downcast as
they behold the pages thereof, but the
anxious inquiries will cease.

The congratulations for members Of the
House who win denomination are not
confined to party lines. When the first
and third Maine districts held their con-
ventions and named the present encum-
bents for another term, democrats as well
as republicans joined. in the fluctuations.
The ordeal of nominating conventions is
something that every member of the House
has to undergo every two years, and there
fore all have something of fellow feeling
Oh the subject. Even the favored few
whose constituents continue them in office,
as do the Maine constituencies, have some
concern that the convention may pass of
harmoniousiy and without untoward
developments.
The approach of conyention-time finds
many member of the House back home
patching up the fences, but it is very rare
that a Maine member does that. Gov.
Burleigh kept right on with his daily
round of work at the capitol, as did
Representative Allen. There was little to
indicate that either of them was giving a
thought to the matter of his renomina-
ton.

The house of representatives at Wash
ington, Friday, passed bill to authorize
additional aids to navigation in the light
house establishment. The bill appropri-
ates S75S, $50, and provides various light
stations, buoys, tenders, ETC., in various
parts of the country. The bill authorizes
an allowance of one ration day for each
person on the basis of thirty cents per
ration. The committee reporting the bill
estimates that this will mean an additional
outlay by the government OF S175,2 200
annually. The provision granting to
widows or children of lighthouse keepers
and their assistants q sum equal to two
years pay in case such keepers or assist
ants should lose their lives in the perilous

Last week, while digging out fox hole
which is at least four miles from the near
est farm, Charles Garland, of Lakewood,
found fresh remains of hen which had
through the forest to her family. There
was found among the debris of the nest a
perfect hens egg which apparently was in
the hen at the time of capture. The egg,
upon being broken, was found to be
perfectly flesh. Madame Reynard, what
ever other charges may be made against
her, is evidently not an egg-eater.

your people think we'll enough OF you to
give you another term" "Congratula-
tions, Mr.. Allen; they can't have very
much against you down in the first dis
trict."
And if Gov. Powers were in town there
| would be like salutations for "Uncle Lew
ellyn". OF course, Representative Little
| field feels little lonesome because there
are no such handouts for him. 1t makes
him realize that he is in fact nearing the
time when he steps from public life by
his own choice. But he had a turn few
weeks ago when he announced his deter
mination to quit Congress. He also had
an opportunity to see how much members
Of the House thought of him, for they
came to shake hands and to say how sorry
they were that he was going to leave.
kilograms and letters began to pour in
upon him, all of like tenor, and the let
tiers are coming yet. incidentally many
friendly inquiries are being made about
Gov. Powers, as the reports OF his illness
have been causing concern among his
friends at the capitol.
