The gross receipts Of the Bangor 4
Aroostook railroad are approximately
1854, 900 less for the fiscal year just end
ed than in 1907. This decrease is due
to the failure of the potato crop i'll
Aroostook. At the end of the first nine
months of the present fiscal year the
road had carried 100000 bushels less
than in the same period of 1907, de-
crease which meant loss of some
s24o, 900 to the freight earnings. Count
ing fixed charges and other income the
same as in 1907, the surplus this year
will be about $i37,29s, as compared
with s196,665, or SO per cent. on the
increased capitalization, compared with
1877 per cent ON outstanding stock OF
1907. The four per cent. dividend calls
for 1913, $50, leaving $4,000 for profit
and loss. Taking everything into con-
sideration, the money market and the
poor potato crop of the last season, the
showing is not bad one.
| The editor of the Waterville Sentinel
appears to have personal crouch
against Congressman Burleigh, whose
chief offense in the eyes of this hostile
critic seems to be that he is not an
orator. But oratory, while it has its
uses, and abuses, plays a very small
part in affairs at Washington today. 1t
| is work that telIs-WOrk on committees,
in the departments and on the floors OF
| Congress. Personal influence counts
for far more than flow of words.
Business ability is the chief requisite
in the Congressman of today, and to
answer at every roll-call is more to the
purpose than a set speech or "permls-
sion to print" If Congressman Bur
leigh has neglected any of the manifold
duties devolving upon him as Represen-
tative from the Third Maine district
we have yet to hear of it. Not only
has he looked zealously after the inter
ests of the towns and cities in his dis
trict. but after the interests of his con-
stituents individually-notably in pen
sion cases-as many can testify. His
personal influence on the floors of Con-
gress and in the departments is second
to none and his industry and integrity
are unquestioned. He will without
doubt be returned to Congress by an
increased majority.

A gentleman long connected with a
Leading manufacturing industry, in dis
cussing the political situation the other
day said that in the improbable event
OF the election of Bryan this country
would suffer as never before. The
manufacturers, he said, would as soon
shut down as not and thousands upon
thousands would be thrown out of en-
ployment, and would be the victims of
their own political folly. In this con-
nection it may be recalled that under
the first Cleveland administration it
was necessary to establish a soup kitch-
en- in Belfast, which was maintained by
popular subscription.

we do the best in our power, there
should be no grounds for criticism. To
meet the public demand in the direc-
ton of tax reform the last legislature
authorized the appointment of a State
tax commission to hold meetings in diff
ferent parts of the State to gather in
formation to be sifted out and sum-

ture. This commission will hold ses-
sion at the court house in Belfast on
Saturday, August 1st, at 10 a. M, which
every one interested is invited to attend
and offer such suggestions as they may
see fit. 1t is expected that the report
of this commission will be made the
basis for remedial legislation and the
commission should receive all possible

This frank and vigorous estimate of
the character of the Democratic nomi-
nee for President appears in the cur
rent Harper's Weekly: "He has been
regarded by some as a visionary, by
Others as an oily fanatic of the preach
ing Dowie type, by the largest number
as common demagogue without con-
viction, but not wholly devoid of prin-
ciple, though canny and possibly harm
full through his possession of an amaz-
ing gift of CAB. Only the few who
have had intimate relations with him
were aware of the scrupulously hidden
malevolence of disposition, the unfor-
giving spirit, the relentless vindictive-
ness, which haye governed his every
political act in the interest of self to
the utter exclusion of all other consld-
erations.''
