AGAIN WITHOUT
A TREE BOARD
Two Remaining Members Of
Second Shade Commission
Submit designations.
MAYOR IS SURPRISED

On opening his mail this morning
Mayor Bollschweiler was surprised to
find that one of the envelopes con-
tanned the designations of Edward M.
Kelly and Sidney Riddlestorfer as
members of the Shade Tree Commits
sion
Mr.. Bollschweiler said that he was
surprised at their action.
The city is now without Shade
Tree Commission. Some time ago Nor
ris Shumsky, the third member, re-
signed and his successor was not ap-
pointed. Neither Mr.. Kelly nor Mr..
Riddlestorfer gave any reason for
their designations but asked that they
take effect at once.
Several months ago Mr. Bollsch-
weller appointed second shade tree
commission, the members of the first
one having resigned. The second board
never had meeting as far as could
be learned, nor did the original one.
Shortly after he was appointed as a
member of the second commission Mr..
Shunsky resigned, stating that he did
not have time to attend to it.

been decorated and the speakers and
county and city candidates have beer
invited to occupy seats on the plat

stated that it has nothing to do with
the meeting, it's members have beer
invited to attend.
The plea of the antiStrong men il
that their ticket has two local repre-

Peter A. Peterson is making thor
ouQh canvass for the nomination for
excise commissioner on the republican

mary must pick out the five men he
favors for the nomination and cross
out all the others.

Loyal to the American Ship.

Every President elected by the party
Of protection for the past thirty or forty
years has favored Congressional aid for
the rehabilitation of the American ship
in the foreign-going trade, but none
more earnestly than President Taft.
The President favors ship subsidies more
especially in the form of mail subven-
tions, believing this to be the fairest
method, and being convinced that our
merchant marine If encouraged in this
way will be built up by the establish
ment of fast lines to South American
and Far Eastern ports, combining the
carriage of mails, passengers, and
freight.
President Taft's enthusiasm on this
subject is the result of his wide observa-
ton of the lack of American shipping in
foreign ports adjacent to the Pacific
Ocean through his extensive travels and
residence in the Philippines previous to
his election. He can therefore speak
more convincingly on this subject per-
haps than any other man living, and that
he is doing his complete duty in the mat
ter no one who has followed his speeches
during his recent trip throughout the
West and South can deny. Congress
should follow suit. The Marine Journal.

CURED MOTHER

Bloodlessness and a Rundown
Condition Will Inevitably Bring
Suffering and Sorrow Unless
Promptly Corrected.

The symptoms described in the fol-
lowing statement are SO common today
Wherever oyerwork and worry have
resulted in a decline in health that the
means by which cure was effected
deserves the careful attention of every
thoughtful man and woman.
Mrs. Il. q. Goodwin, of r. F. D. No.
., Gardner, Mass. was cured of anamia
after she had been sick for year. She
says:
Il was in terrible condition few
years ago suffering from anemia.

up my baby. lost color and strength
and became SO weak that my husband
had to help me around. Very often
would get dizzy and seem to see floating
specks before my eyes. l would wake
up through the night and be SO numb all
over that it seemed my blood would
never start circulating again. This
numbness would last for an hour. NV
digestion was poor and I could not
breathe we'll
my doctor treated me for anamia
but l finally stopped taking his medi-
cine. l heard of Dr. Williams Pink
Pills and felt some better after I had
taken them only short time. But
gave them long trial and gradually
grew better and got so that ! didn't
need medicine any more. My health is
good now and l have had no serious
sickness since.
Later had greater reasons for being
grateful for DR.. Williams Pink Pills.
My little girl began to grow weak and
seemed to have no strength. We took
her to two doctors, who examined her
lungs and heart and told us to take her
from school. We were afraid of con-
sumption as the doctor watched her
lungs so closely. During her sickness
we moved here and not wishing to try
another doctor l began giving her DR..
Williams Pink Pills. She gained right
away i'll strength and color, was able to
resume her school work and is now in
fine health'

FOIEYSkIDNEYCURE
Makes Kidneys and Bladder Right
THE PURE FOOD ACT
1t Applies to Liquors Which May be Seized
and DESTROYED if Adulterated.

In a rescript handed down by the Maine
Law Court November 26th, it is held tina
the State officers may seize liquors under
the pure foodslaW, not as Representatives
OF the national government, but as depu
ties of this State.
This rescript will have an important
bearing on the enforcement work Of
Maine. Cases are now pending before
the United States courts in which the
Boston liquor dealers seek to enjoir
Sheriff Hastings of Androscoggin county
and the sheriffs Of every county in Maine
from Selling liquors under the pure food
law. 1t is claimed by the petitioners
that only the United States government
can act under this law.
The latest ruling of the Law Court
analyses the subject in new way. Chief
Justice Emery, who drew the rescript,
says that liquors which do not comply
with the pure food law are forbidden tC
be introduced into this State from an
other State and hence are removed by
Congress from the operation of the in
terstate commerce clause, and become
subject to the laws of the State upon
their arrival within its territory and be-
fore delivery to the consignee. Following
is the complete rescript:
State of Maine VS.. eight half-pint bot
ties of whiskey marked Harold ]. John
son, the Maine Central Railroad Com
pany, claimant.
Rescript by Emery, C. J.
/. Where eighty half pint bottles of
Intoxicating liquors are deposited in one
lot, the quantity and division into such
small bottles are sufficient evidence they
were intended for unlawful sale, no other
explanation being offered.
2. When the bottles containing intoX-
icating liquors are labelled as containing
monogram whiskey, and are marked
Blend" and the alcohol contents is
less, and the residuum from 100 cubic
centimeters is more than the standard
test prescribed by the Act of Congress
known as the "Pure Food Act" the
liquors are misbranded and adulterated
within that act.
3. Liquors so misbranded or adulter-
ated are by the Pure Food Act forbidden
to be introduced into this State from
another State, and hence are removed by
Congress from the operation Of the COM
merce clause of the federal constitution
and become subject to the laws of the
State upon arrival within its territory
and before delivery to the consignee.
Judgment for the State for forfeiture
of the liquors, and all liquors ordered de-
stroyed. Judgment against the claimant
for costs.

The State House Addition.

The granite for the addition to the
State House will be quarried in Halo
well from the same stone as that used IN
the original building, insuring uniformi-
ty of color and texture. The company
to which was awarded the contract for
the erection of the addition has sublet
the granite contract, which amounts to
between $50, 900 and $500, 900. The quarry
has been opened on the Longfellow farm,
which is part of large tract once owned
by Samuel Longfellow. Part of the tract
was sold to Governor Bodwell and the re-
mainder was in the Longfellow family
until sold in September by Augustus T.
Longfellow, a grandson of the original
owner. The opening of the new quarry
means more business for Hallowell and
added prestige as granite center. Ad-
ditional equipment is now being placed in
the quarry that will enable them to furn-
ish the material within the required time.
