The Boothbay Register WAKES very
sarcastic at those Bath people who

II nothing else should stir our people
to mighty action, such demonstration

she is putting up against us seems al
most too small to notice. After all
these years Of Inconvenience and eX-
pence IN loss of time and money our
people nave endured in having to pass
through her precincts before getting
to this center of the great summer
business! TWo-thirds of the passen-
gers coming on this line from Boston
have had to do this for the past tWen-
ty-!ive years, Il fact that can be DEM
onstrated by perusal of the pas
senger agents books. What justice is
there in now trying to compel that
state Of things to continue? We have
been remarkably patient and have at
ways considered our shipping COM

extra advantage of travel from this
locality Ctlered by the new arrange
ments will bring more business to

Germany and the Poles.

A striking example of the rough
shod methods employed by monarehics
in working out their ends is afforded
by the work which is being accom-
plslied by Chancellor Won Buelow of
Germany i'm effecting the Prussianiza-
ton OF that part of Poland which is
The first step in the accomplishment
of this result was the passage of a law
forbidding the use of the Polish
language in any of the public schools
This was rcsoIutcly resisted by the
people of the districts affected. OPP
position to it would probably have
sUbsidcd had not the German govern
ment proceeded to other and harsher
methods of benevolent absorption"
A few months ago the Reichstag
passed Il law giving the Prussian au-
thorities the right to confiscate Polish
estates tor the purpose of settling
Prussian colonists upon them. OF
course provision was made for the re-
endorsement of their owners but this
fact did not relieve the law of it's
tyrannical features. The estates
the government were in most in
stances occupied by the descendants
of the original Polish owners and
have in most cases been occupied by
such descendants for centuries. 1t
would seem as if this high handed
and indefensble measure might well
have been the limit of German OPP
preston of the Polish race, but there
was additional trouble in store for
this unfortunate people. In a law
which has just been passed by the
German Reichstag forbidding the use
of anything but the German language
in meetings through the empire save
in those districts where go per cent,
of the Inhabitants speak some other
language. Even this exception is
limited to a period of 20 years upon
the assumption that in that period
even the inhabitants of such districts
should learn to speak the German
language.
1t is difficult indeed for people
living under the broad and tolerant
spirit that prevails under a republican
form of government to conceive of the
harshness of provisions like these when
rigidly enforced upon a protesting
people. The partition Of Poland
among the powers was one of the
greatest crimes in history. and it
would seem as if the German govern
ment might we'll permit time and gen.
erous treatment to heal the wounds of
the people who still cherish their ma
tional spirit, although they have
ceased to have a national existence.

Boss Murphy and Mr.. Bryan.

Even the most sanguine Of Mr..
Bryan's opponents recognize the fact
that they cannot hope to defeat him
in the Denver convention, unless they
are able to swing the united delega-
items of New York and Pennsylvania
against him. The report therefore
that Boss Murphy of Tammany Hall,
who is conceded to control the New
York delegation to the Denver conven-
ton, has a complete understanding
with the Nebraska leader, has given his
opponents within his party a very Sc
we're attack Of cold feet. 1t is said
that MIR. Murphy has the assurance
of Mr. Bryan that the delegates
arbitrarily selected at the recent New
York State convention will be "recog-
nized' at. the Denver convention as
the regular" delegates from that
state. AS Mr.. Bryan and his friends
will organize that convention, and
adopt the rules under which it's bust
ness will be conducted, it is needless
to say that whatever he says about
matters of this kind will be final.
Naturally Mr.. Murphy will recipro-
cate. He is said to have assured Mr..
Bryan of the hearty support Of prac-
tically the solid New York delegation.
He may conclude, as an act Of hu-
mainly, to let out Alton E. Parker:
but the others will be brought into
the Bryan fold promptly and with a
due flourish Of trumpets. All this
has been settled between Boss
Murphy and Mr.. Bryan. through the
kindly Intervention of Mr.. Lewis
Nixon.
1t is no wonder in view Of this ar
rangement that Mr.. Bryan returned
from his recent trip to New York i'll
an exuberant frame of mind. He
had made deal which insured him
the powerful backing of the New York
delegation at Denver and which rem
dered it impossible for any other man
to combat his candidacy successfully
in the National convention. Mr..
BRYAN was also cheered by good news
from Pennsylvania during his stay at
the Hoffman House.
"The delegates from Illinois are
practically unanimous for me-" said
h, land ex-Congressman James Kerr
Of Pennsylvania, who has the latest
news from his state, says that two
thirds of the delegates from the Key
stone State are pledged for me. Mr.
Guffey. who has been opposed to me
right along, lost his district and JOS
eph Howley and George A. Gray. the
two men chosen from the Goth Dis
trict (Guffey's) are instructed for me-"
Some of the Democratic newspapers
of Maine are supporting the candi-
dicy Of Governor johnson of Mime
sofa; but the delegates from this State
may be depended upon to scramble
aboard the Bryan band wagon with
out delay when they see how the
breezes blow at Denver. .-,..
