Only in one instance has DR.. Hill
been known to oppose the wishes of
the people, or rather, their chosen rep
resentatives. For number of years
he has lived in the house occupied so
long by James G. Blaine and his fam
lily Some years ago the legislature
attempted to buy the homestead, with
a view of making it the executive
mansion. But Dr. Hill would not part
with the estate. 1t so happened that
the intention of the legislature was
carried out, after all, for in 1900 DR..
Hill was elected governor, and for
four years the old Blaine home was in
effect at least what the legislature
designed.

Stiff Neck.

Stiff neck is caused by rheumatism
of the muscles of the neck. 1t is usual
ly confined to one side, or to the back
of the neck and one side. While it
is often quite painful, quick relief
may be. had by applying Chamber
lain's Liniment. Not one case of rheu-
matism in ten requires internal treat
ment. When there is no fever and no
swelling as in muscular and chronic
rheumatism, Chamberlafn's Liniment
will accomplish more than any inter
nal treatment. For sale by Bratton

PUBLISHER
Becomes Chairman of the Republican
National committee-Dr. John
F. Hill of Augusta, Maine.

Augusta, Me- March 13.-Dr. John
Fremont Hill, the new vice chairman
of the republican national committee,
is one of the best known public men
in Maine. He long has been identi-
fled with New England politics and
was one of the most important fac
tors in this section of the country in
s the campaign which led up to the
Z nomination of Judge Taft for the pres
idency.
DR.. Hill was born in Eliot, Me-,
October 90, 1855, and has been resi-
dent of Augusta since 1879. He rep
resented this city in the assembly in
1889, and in 1898 and 1895 he repre-
scented Kennebec county in the SEN
ate. In 1896 he was presidential
eleetor and in 1899 a member of the
executive council of the republican
national committee. In 1906 he was
elected to the governorship of the
Pine Tree State and was reelected in
1902. As a governor he displayed ex-
.ecutive ability of the highest order
and his administration received the
approval not only of the republicans
of the state but, of many prominent
democrats as well.
Though Dir. Hill is graduate of
Bowdoin Medical College, he has de-
voted little time to the practice of
medicine. He is man of consider
able wealth and of late years he has
abandoned the medical profession en-
,tirely to give his attention to the nu-
merous financial and industrial enter
prises in which he Isl interested. Soon
after coming to Augusta he associated
himself with the publishing firm later
known as the Vickery & Hill company.
This firm made specially of publish
ing weekly story papers for the mass
es and in the course of decade or
two the partners accumulated mil
lions They built printing plant
which at the time was the largest in
