Yesterday was iobsterman's day at
Augusta, and the lobstermen won out
handsomely in their fight against the bill
proposing that they shall be licensed.
Commissioner Donhue suggested to the
committee on sea and shore fisheries that
in view OF the opposition which had de-
veloped, an adverse report be made on the
measure. This will be done, and the
battle is over.

The Maine men here to a man regret to
see the fine old tariff law that the late
Representative Dingley built destroyed.
Most of them have vivid memories of the
day S and nights that the eminent repre-
sentative from the second district, then
chairman of ways and means, put in, not
only to frame good tariff law for the ma
ton, but also one that would take care of
the interests of the Pine Tree state. In
spite of all the hard things critics have
said about that law-and no laws are so
severely criticized as tariff laws the
treasury officials say that, from the rev.
enue standpoint, it was most wisely made,
and in that regard has been the best tariff
law this country ever had.
Mr.. Dingley did much OF the hard work
OF framing that tariff bill in the sitting
room Of his apartments at the Hamilton.
His republican colleagues used to come
there in the evening to work with him,
Although it was only twelve years ago,
that was during the days when there were
no magnificent Offices 1t the capitol, and
1t was cosier and more comfortable to
work at the hotel.
Probably no member Of either branch OF
Congress was ever better informed than
Mr.. DinRiey on tariff and fiscal problems.
He had made tariff . matter OF daily study
for many years. So now the preparations
to discard the Dingley law seem to the
Maine folks here - like the tearing down
OF dns old historic mansion. They know,
Of course, that desirable - changes in

Green Mountain Pomona grange, at its
meeting at North Ellsworth next week,
will discuss the question, Resolved, that
1t would be better for patrons OF Green
Mountain Pomona to hold an agricultural
fair instead of field meeting as in the
past" The Gossiper has long been of the
opinion shat an effective combination
of grangers OF both Green Mountain and
Hancock Pomonas. with committee Of
business men and horsemen of Ellsworth,
would result in fair in Ellsworth which
would rival any Of the county fairs in the
State. With the farmers themselves back
OF the agricultural and stock exhibits,
business men and horsemen of Ellsworth
back OF the track events, and amusement
features, success would be assured.

Our West Franklin CORRESPONDENT grows

Teddy Roosevelt still lives, in spite of the

John Aoki and his partner, George, the two Japanese boys who have been prospecting on Eldorado creek since early in October, are in the city where they will remain for a week taking a ress and getting together another sup ply of grub with which to continue their work.
 George says they have sunk four holes to bedrock and are now at work on the fifth, which they were forced to quit on account of the scarsity of sup plies. In two of the holes which they sank to bedrock they got very good prospects, but the other two were blanks. He is now convinced that the paystreak is we'll over to the right limit, and it is their intention to sink on that side of the creek when they re- turn. The formation which they find
