The Maine Ice Crop.

Unless weather conditions prevent,
Which is extremely doubtful, with the
present foundation for the ice fields,
ice will be cut on the Kennebec river
the present winter, although not in as
large quantities as two years ago.
Already a crew of men are engaged
in scraping the ice in the vicinity of
the two largest houses of the American
Ice company on the river, the Iceboro
houses and those at Cedar Grove. The
combined capacity of the two houses IS
125, 900 tons. and these will be filled the
coming season, according to present
plans, and possibly some Of the other
houses On the river.
The ice at present differs in the diff
ferent fields along the river from five
inches to near open water, and It's
thickness will have to reach at least
twelve inches before any attempt will
be made to cut it.
Not a pound of ice was cut on the
Kennebcc last winter by the American
Ice company, the only two plants in
the state that were operated by that
company being. those at Bristol and
Boothbay Some of the cut Of two
years ago Of the American Ice COM
pany possibly $4,000 tons, is still
housed on the river although. Of
course not in as good condition as
when first harvested.-Bath Times.

Mr.. Morse and His Native Town.

Whatever may be thought of the
financial methods of Charles w.
Morse. the proposal of his former fell
low citizens of Bath, Ne, to help him,
If possible, in his present trouble in
dicates a generous if misguided i'm
pulse of generosity on their part. Mr..
Morse is perhaps no worse than some
other high financiers, as might be
thought from some of the denuncia-
lions that have been heaped upon
him. At any rate, he did not forget
his native town while the heydey Of
his prosperity lasted, contributing to
its intellectual life and transferring to
it the register of his many steamships
so that its marine receipts might be
swollen. There is a little more than
mere gratitude for favors received in
the present attitude of the peoplo Of
Bath, deplorable as it is from an c,hi-
cal point of view.
One Of Mr.. Morse's severest critics
has been the president Of Bowdoin, the
college at which he was graduated
Dr. Hyde's repeated sermons on the
subject Of Mr. Morse have been along
the line of an inpeccable morality. and
nobody can object to their substance.
TIE financier's BOwdoin classmate.
Commander Peary, is more attractive
figure: and Bowdoin men doubtless
take larger pride in him. But how
was it three or even two years ago?
AT that time Mr.. Morse was one Of the
great captains Of industry" If not
'unscrupulous, al least he was shrewd
TO the point of rapacity; yet did any
one i'm the state of Maine take him for
a text? The citizens of Bath in under
taking to raise the money requisite to
release Nj Morse on bail show that
they are at least not time-servers and
crites.-Providence Journal.

The Hartford Courant hears from
New Haven that Prof. Fox has lost
many sylnpathizers because Of his
course i'll calling the election court
Fox is most severely condemned be-
cause he kept his proceedings secret up
to the last day, so that no one else
could summon in Judge Robertson, or
anybody else 1t is shown that Judge
Bennett signed the order several days
before it was made public, so that there
was an evident intent to delay pub
licity until the last moment.-Bridge-
port Post.
1t was just that sort of petty mean
ness that characterized the opposition
to Mr.. Lilley all through the campaign
and that does not appear to have been
lessened since his popular triumph.
Men who are built on a small scale
cannot become any larger in mind or
soul by espousing what they are
pleased to term q great and popular
cause. They will do their work ALWAYS
in one way and its chief element will
be littleness.-Bridgepo Standard.

Increasing Wester|y's Water Supply
Ten Additional Wells Being Driven Must Make
Applications for Licenses Today-Rhode Island OF
ficers will Attend Norwich Military Ball-DeaEa OF
John E. Kenney.

Onicial analysis has proven the wa

STATE, and a peculiar feature is that
strangers are never affected by a

ty of the Westerly product. During
the recent drought there has been am

Gioners are wisely providing for the
future. The water is procured through
driven wells supplied by apparently
ever lasting springs, and distributed
10 consumers through a modern
pumping station. There are now being
driven ten additional wells which are
calculated to increase the capacity Of
the plant sufficiently to provide for a
as that now credited to Westerly, and
to meet the requirements of regular
sewer cystem which must come to
Westerly at an early date, and also the
enlarged fire district as proposed.
The water department is being jul
diciously managed and the townspeople
are getting the very best water OBJ
tainable and at the minimum cost.
Westerly BARRIERS, in common with
their fellow tradesmen throughout
Rhode Island, have rushed their appi-
cations for licenses, following the de-
cision of the supreme court that the
statute creating the barber commission
Is constitutional All applications must
be presented before this (Monday)
evening, and all BARRIERS doing business
thereafter who have not state license

rendered Thursday.

The activity Of Town Solicitor Kings
ley has resulted in enforcement of the
law which requires that doors shall

Of public amusements. In some cases
this measure has been carried to the

dissatisfaction.
Tt is expected that at the regular

report relative to a license fee of 81

The condition of the mineral
water industry during 1905 show S
that the demand for pure drinking
water extends across the continent
and has come to stay. The growth
of population, the movement to-
ward cities, the wholesale pollution
of surface waters, and the time that
must elapse before even a major
part of the cities are provided with
publication plants are factors that
indicate continued growth for the
table-water trade.

General Demand

of the Well Informed of the World has
always been for a simple, pleasant and

acceptable to the system and gentle, yet

on the merits of the laxative for its remark
