Enforcement in Hancock County.

The present term Of court furnishes an
object lesson for violators of the liquor
law in Hancock county, which they will
do we'll to heed. 1t admits of no uncer-
tainty as to where County Attorney
Wiley C. Conary stands on the enforce
ment question. He has steadfastly re-
fused to accept any fines for liquor often
ces, and having established this prece-
dent, there is every indication that he
intends to stand by it. With Sheriff Sils-
by and his efficient corps of deputies
active in rounding up offenders, and
County Attorney Conary insisting on Jail
sentences, the path of the liquor law
violators in Hancock county is stony in
deed.
On every side, among the lawyers and
those familiar with court procedure,
words Of praise are heard for the man.
ner in which County Attorney Conary
has taken up the work of his office, and
the able manner in which he has handled
it. Judge Cornish took occasion at the
cleaning up Of the criminal docket to
pay graceful and deserved compliment
to the county attorney, commencing him
for the way in which he had handled the
criminal docket, which he said, the coun-
ty attorney had conducted in a very
clean way and enforced the law
Justice Cornish is also deserving of
great commentator. He has demon
strated very clearly that so far as one
justice of the Supreme Court, at least,
is concerned, that there is no crying need
for the late lamented Hastings bill which
Gov. Fernald vetoed. Ellsworth Ameri-
can.

HORSE RADISH.

In many respects the grated horse rad
ish and vinegar which we buy in the
Bangor markets and grocery stores re-
minds us of the effects produced by
evangelists of Salvation Army preachers
and exhorters, as both have a warming
and stimulating influence. Continuing
the smile, different makes of horse
radish vary in strength and potency, even
as different evangelists vary in power to
make an impression.
So great is the desire for the strongest
horse radish that one would sooner pay Is
cents a bot lie for Moody and Sankey or
a Chapman and Alexander kind, than
buy the 10-cent variety, which as rule
is half fiat turnip.
Indeed, in ali sincerity and without
frivolity or cant, horse radish can be cal
led the physical evangel of spring time
something which warns and quickens
and stimulates the elmer man," some
thing which causes US to take a more
hopeful view of life, which give US bet
ter appetites for the plain, and ordinary
foods of earth, and an article which gives
US courage and good cheer, without a
suspicion of exhilaration or maudlin in
toxication.
To all who need waking up and shak-
ing up after the long alternating sleep of
winter, there is nothing better than
grated horse radish taken in conjunction
with baked beans or roast meat or broil-
ed beefsteak three times every day dur
ing the progress Of every meal. 1t is put
up by no quack doctor, who has his name

Captain Frank Stevens, who died in
Havana April 18th, was born in Blue
Hill, Me-, sixty-seven years ago, and OF
late years resided in Brooklyn, N. Y.
He came into prominence during the
events which Immediately preceded the
Spanish-American war. He was in COM
mand of the steamer City OF Washing,
ton in Havana harbor when the United
States battleship Maine was blown up
and his boats crew was the first to reach
the survivors and help in the rescue

in the rescue from the prison fortress at
Gunabacoa of Miss Evangeline Cisneros,
daughter of an insurgent general and
now the wife of Lieutenant Carbonel:
She was struggled on board the City of
Washington by newspaper reporter and
a steamship agent, and Captain Stevens

veal her presence on board, and she was
safely landed in New York. The body
was brought to New York by steamer
and taken to Ellsworth for burial. Mrs.
Stevens, who came with her husbands
body, is critically ill, suffering from

The Rights Of Women.

Lady Dorothy Nevilie's "Reminiscences
contains the following poem given her, some
forty odd years ago. by Lady Abergavenny.
The Rights of Women, what are they?
The Right to labor, love and pray;
The Right to weep with those that weep;
The Right to wake when others sleep.
The Right to dry the falling tear,
The Right to quell the rising fear;
The Right to smooth the brow of care,
And whisper comfort in despair.
The Right to watch the parting breath,
To soothe and cheer the bed of death;
The Right when earthly hopes all fail,
To point to that within the Veil.
The Right the wanderer to reclaim,
And win the lost from paths of shame
The Right to comfort and to bless
The widow and the fatherless!
The Right the little ones to guide,
In simple faith, to Him who died.
With earnest love and gentle praise
To bless and cheer their youthful days.
The Right the intellect to train
And guide the soul to noble aim;
Teach it to rise above earth's toys,
And wing it's flights to heavenly joys.
The Right to live for those we love,
The Right to die, that love to prove;
The Right to brighten earthly homes
With pleasant smiles and gentle tones.
Are these thy Rights? Then use them well.
Their holy influence none can tell.
If these are thine, why ask for more?
Thou hast enough to answer for!
Are these thy Rights? Then murmur not,
Thy woman's mission is thy lot;
Improve the talents God has given;
Lies duties done-thy rest in Heaven.

A NEW TRUST.

Judson C. Welliver, in McClure's for
May, tells about gigantic new trust
that is being formed in the United States.
He says that at the present rate of con-
sumption the country's coal supply will
not last more than one hundred and
twenty-five years, and that substitute
must be found to produce the steam
power used, and asks question which
he answers.
'1s there such substitute?' There
is. 1t is found in the great water powers
of the country. And these are today
we'll on the way to control by trust big
ger than any that has ever been dreamed
of; a trust that, if it shall be able to
carry out the systematic plans now in
hand, will be as wealthy as if it owned
all the railroads Of the nation, with
Standard Oil and United States Steel on
top, and then few score of the minor
trusts tossed in for good measure.
"This is the Water Power Trust Its
existence was first suspected by govern
ment officials five years ago. Since then
it has been gathering in the best power
sites in every part of the country. 1t
has subsidiaries that operate in Canada.
1t has grown to such proportions, and its
purpose to monopolize the water power
of continent has become so apparent,
that President Roosevelt thus referred
to it, not long ago, in his veto of the
James River Dam bill:
1.-The people of the country are threat
ened by monopoly far more powerful,
because in far closer touch with their
domestic and industrial life, than any,
thing known to our experience. A single
generation will see the exhaustion Of our
natural resources of oil and gas and such
rise in the price of coal as will make
the prices of electrically transmitted wat
er power controlling factor in transpor
tation, in manufacturing, and in household
lighting and heating.'"
