BANKS, TREASURES in HOTEL
When Moneyed Men Of Maine Feared
for Their Gold.

For two years, from 1912 to 1914,
the treasure OF all the banks Of the
Forest City lay in the parlor of the
Marrett house in Standish village, and
as evidence of the fact to-day upon the
parlor door can be seen the huge lock
which was placed there nearly a cen
tury ago to add safeguard to the
treasure.
During the war OF 1912 the bankers
OF Portland thought their treasure was
in danger of being looted by the Brit
ish forces, and in casting about fcr a
safe place their choice fell upon the
town OF Standish and the Marrett
house as depository for the treasure.
Loaded upon a six-ox cart and guarded
closely, the money, thousands Of dol
lars of it, was transported is miles
and deposited in the place of safety,
where 1t remained for two years with
a guard OF but one man to watch IT,
The door Of the parlor In which the
money was placed was REINFORCED by
a heavy lock having brass handle,
and extra supports were placed under
the door OF the room to sustain the
enormous weight OF wealth. The house
is still owned by descendants of Rev
Mr.. Merrett and is one Of the Oldest
Of the town.-Lewiston Journal.

Love.

Love Is the only bow on life's dark
cloud. 1t is the morning and evening
star. 1t shines on the babe, and
sheds its radiance on the quiet tomb.
1t Is the mother OF art; inspirer of
poet, patriot and philosopher 1t is
the air and light of every heart; build
er of every home; kinder OF every
fire on the hearth; 1t was the FIRST
dress of immortality. 1t fills the world
with melody, for music is the voice Of
love. Love Is the magician, the en-
chanter that changes worthless things
to joy, and makes right royal queens
and kings of common clay 1t is the
perfume OF that wonderful flower, the
heart, and without that sacred pas
sion, that divine swoon, we are less
than beasts; but with it-earth is
heaven and we are gods.-Robert G.
Ingersoll.

The attitude Of the republican party
toward Oklahoma is somewhat remarkable,
and has been all along The utterances
Of Senator Beveridee anent the state ad-
ministration were no more out Of keeping
with the truth than were those Of Mr..
Taft a year ago. The national leaders Of
the republican party are grossly at fault
with reference to correct information re-
garding this state and its people. Mr..
Taft did the people Of Oklahoma an ire
parable injury when he expressed doubt
as to their ability to govern themselves,
and told the world that these people were
undeserving Of consideration by congress
other than to be kept in bondage to the
powers at Washington Senator Beveridge
makes an even greater error when he in
sinuates in public speeches throughout
the state that conditions exist here that
would shame any section Of the whole
country. The leaders Of the republican
party are making it impossible for this
party to ever carry the state, or to have
voice in its administration The truth
would be an adonment to the utterances
Of republican leaders with respect to Okla
homa. To discredit the people Of a great
state is a matter Of no small consequence
and can only react upon those who at
tempt it.
