called Sturgis law. It seems to me the prac
ticabie proposition--and tell you that we
are practically bound to put something else.
all that we can that is reasonable, In place
Of the other law, because we want to have
the law enforced, and IL there is any way
that we can enforce 1t by proper and
. reasonable law, we want to do it.
II we. do not believe the Sturgis law is
reasonable law, then get rid of it; and when
you get rid of it let see what reasonable
and proper laws we can substitute for 1t, and
say that it is a reasonable and proper and
effective law which should like to see sub
stituted here. OF course the same reasons
will apply to this as to other similar legsla-
ton.
1t is unnecessary to say that the governor is
required by the constitution to see that the
laws are enforced; it is unnecessary to say
to the legislature that he has not much power
in repeating this law; it is not necessary to
say that If we give him this hold over the
sheriffs, IL we give him this power behind the
sherifs making them responsible to him in
sense, he then does have certain power in
his hands which he can use to help enforce
the laws which he was sworn to enforce.
This is my plan-it may not be perfect aud
probably is not. / have great pride of
opinion, and If anybody else has any better
plan will vote for it. simply put this for
ward as proposition, something IN a prac-
tical way and perhaps the best way we can
get at it to meet the situation. / believe we
should look at this thing from the standpoint
of officers of the State of Maine, legislators
sent here to devise something to help the peo-
pie out and to enforce the law in this respect.
As say, IL there is any better plan, let us
have it, and we want it, and will vote for it,
and this is something that comes up because
the other proposition has been voted down.
Now, this proposition you may take and try,
and all want is q chance TO offer this as an
amendment, and in order that may have
I chance to offer 1t as amendment I am
obliged to have the vote whereby this House
passed to be engiossed the resolve re .,onsid-
cred, and as IL requires two-thirds vote and
O suspension Of the rules to reconsider that
vote have moved at the beginning Of my re-
marks that the rules be suspended and that
the vote Of the House whereby this resolve
was passed to be engrossed, be reconsidered;
and do that, as say, for the purpose Of
offering the very amendment which have
tried in rather rough way to explain to you.

Long ago the Scotch learned this.

The sturdy old Scotchman must be
amused at the recent discoveries that
oatmeal is the best food in the world.
Our scientific men have been making
experiments which prove that Ameri-
Cans eat too much fat and grease and
not enough cereals.
The Scotchmen say: Look at our
nation as proof. The sturdiest nation
on earth" Still we have one good point
to make. We make better oatmeal than
the Scotch.
They buy Quaker Oats and consider
I" the leader of all oatmeals to be had
anywhere. Quaker Oats is sold in fam
w size packages at 2sc or at 3Oc for
me package containing piece of hne
emma. The regular size package sells

sootch; eat . Quaker Oats breakfast

Longest Railroad in World

In the Cape Town-Cairo Railway, there
is at present a stretch of about $500 miles
to be completed. 1t lies between Khar-
toum, in the British Egyptian Soudan, to
Broken Hill, a point in Rhodesia. 1t is
estimated that this remaining mileage will
be completed within three years, and
then the longest railroad in the world,
covering in the reighborhood of $500
miles, will be finished.
The total cost will be close to R2OO, OOO,-
900, or about q ,OO0, 0O0, 900, but compare
lively small amount when it is considered
what glorious thing it will be for Africa,
one OF the greatest and richest countries
OF the world. It will be possible for the
traveller to journey from Berlin or Paris to
Cape Town in ten or eleven days Just
think of thatl And then it will open up q
country that is rich in almost everything
in the mineral world gold, silver, copper
and diamonds. What else they will find
there remains to be seen.
It's q great work, is this building of
the longest railway, and what it all means
to Africa and the world is not fully appre-
ciated. To the business man, to be found
everywhere, and especially those having
affairs in Africa, it will be wonderful
thing. Where now, in travelling from
Paris for example, he is compelled to
take long sea trip, he will be able, after
the completion OF the road, to take train
to Brindisi, Italy, thence by boat to
Alexandria, Egypt, and a short journey
to Cairo, where he will take the train
that will land him in Cape Town, at the
southern extreme of Africa, all in eleven
days. Just at the present time the work
is in a rather disagreeable country
that is to say, country which has a
fair climate. but fever is quite prevalent.
The engineers on the work are German,
American and English, with, of course,
the Kaffir as the laboring factor.

Weaker than because he can never get enough of it, and to the end of his days labors on the treadmill of the gods like an old horse, jogging along after the bag of oats always dang ling beyond his nose. He dies and a few tabulated figures tell of his wealth and for the credit of humanity, some friends seek to res cue his name from oblivion by tell ing of some little deeds of kindness never known and never suspected in his life In politics scheming for office, friends are sacrificed, promises are broken and the oath of his office is a meaningless thing, if it's violation helps him to get higher The scheming ecclesiastic is no stranger in history; he is with us to-day, wearing the livery of heaven to serve the devil in. Law, gospel, morals, are not for the scheme, they are for the men of finer texture
 The end of life comes alike to schemer and dreamer. The schemer dies and all his schemes die with him Regardless of all fortunes save his own, wrecker not builder, when he dies other Schemers take his place on the treadmill to feed their strength into the dynamo that makes the wheels of Mammon go round The dreamer dies and his visions live after him He is given place in the galaxy of men who wrought for the good of those who come after them. who fought agains and hot with evil Alas for the mal who never dreams; who sees no yis- ions. hears no voices. but lives and dies uncheered by voice or vision his gods deserting him

 We have often heard the alarm of fire and have seen from twenty 10 fifty men and boys running to the scene all empty handed When they arrive they can be of little use for they have no buckets pany has been organized, what We want is apparatus for them to work with IL is something every cit izen and property owner should be interested in The che who advo- oates the theory We have escaped so far without much destuetion by fires may be the first one to be glad to have the fire company save his home or business property.
