that the price would be $4, and consider
ing it exorbitant he concluded not to
have the work done. Referring to the
matter later in store on Main street he
was advised to 60 to the Langill printing
Office opposite, where it was thought he
might get his printing done at price he
could afford to ray. He did so and the
price was $3.50, all that any legitimate
printing Office would ask, and he left the
order. We heard some time ago of an
other case where $3.50 was charged for
job that the Burgess printing Office had
always done for Is cents. Now this is a
matter of public interest, as the mayor
is doing all the city printing at his own
price. If private individuals are charged
from one hundred to one hundred and
fifty per cent more than other printing
offices are willing to do the work for,
how much of the $3.50. 20 paid the Herald
during the municipal year 1909-10 is clear
graft?

W. ]. Heal, 60 Miller street, Belfast Maine
says: 81 have no reason to change my opinion
of Doan's Kidney Pills, which l expressed
through the local newspapers in 1904. l can
recommend them more strongly than ever for
the benefit received has been lasting. Some
eighteen or twenty years ago when living in
Belmont, Maine, began to have trouble from
my kidneys. was almost laid up with a lame
and aching back and at times could hardly
stoop or straighten. My kidneys were very
weak and the secretions from these organs
caused me great annoyance and inconvenience
by their irregularity in passage. Doan's Kid
ney Pills soon relieved me, and since moving to
Belfast have used them on several occasions,
procuring my supply at Wilson's drug store. l
have always received benefit and therefore
recommend Doan's Kidney Pills at every OPP

The war the mayors personal organ is
waging upon the business interests of
Belfast has assumed new phase. Hav-
ing proclaimed week after week that
there was no market in Belfast for coun-
try produce, and that prices are higher
here than elsewhere, thus seeking to
divert trade that would naturally come
here, he is now seeking through the adj
vertisements of outside concerns to in
duce our own people to trade elsewhere.
Some time ago the mayor took insurance
away from local agencies and placed it
in Portland, and the other day he was
heard to boast that he had caused the
transfer of 81, 900 from local bank to a
banking institution of the same city.
There is another phase of this matter
which should have attention. You cannot
blacken and villify a whole community,
advise the public to go elsewhere to buy
or sell, and then exempt a few individ
uals, for personal or pecuniary reasons
They must suffer with the rest in the
loss of prestige and trade, and may suf-
fer further because of their apparent
sympathy with these attacks upon their
fellow citizens and the community in
general. We say apparent, but it is in
conceivable that any respectable citizen
of average intelligence can approve of
the efforts being made to injure our city,
commercially and otherwise

At Democratic mass meeting in Far

after paying tribute to Mr.. Gardner's

not this years standard bearer: ''But
when the Democratic pie counter is
established, as it will be after the Sep
TENDER election, Obadiah Gardner's SER

Gardner did not enjoy this give away,

pleased.

On another page is an interview with
Gen. LeFevre in which he sums up his
observations during a trip around the
world He found that in this country we
are eXtravagant in every respect; that
one-half the people of the world are liv-
ing upon rice, and that man can live
upon from one to two cents worth of rice
day. He said: eff we would use one
food as do the people of the east, the
whole question of the higher cost Of liv-
ing would be solved" When Gen. Lee
Fevre speaks of conditions ga few Years
ago" he means quarter of a century or
more ago. Of that time he said: ''Then
in the country towns everybody used to
keep chickens and have their own eggs
and raise few vegetables" But that
does not tell the whole story. There
were no milkmen then; every family
kept COW, and most of them kept pig.
There are many living in Belfast today
who recall driving the family COW to
pasture, and the pastures of those days
are now occupied by residences. In the
smaller places, where there were no
markets, neighbors exchanged roasting
pieces when the pigs were killed, and the
same practice prevailed when the "fat-
ted calf" was killed. Game was abun-
dant and venison, cartridges and wild
pigeons varied the menu. Beef was
rarely seen, as only when an OK was
past usefulness as beast Of burden was
it lead to slaughter. There have been
great changes since those days, in many
respects, and the prospect of bringing
any number of cur people to a rice diet
is very remote.

A valued and well-informed contribu-
tor, whose letter appears on another
page, recalls the Good old Democratic
tines under Presidents Buchanan and
CleI Gland. There are many who will re-
call the time under Cleveland's admins
tration when Belfast maintained soup
kitchen and there were half dozen ap-
plicants for even temporary employment
at wages that would not BE accepted to-
day. Now under Republican rule and a
Republican policy it is as difficult to get
workmen at greatly increased wages as
it was then for men to get work at low
wages. Few, however, can recall the
panic of 1857 under President Buchan-
ans administration, when 'the whole
business of the country was paralyzed,
it's commerce almost destroyed, its in
dustrious classes living in enforced idle
ness, with willing hands imploring in
vain the privilege of labor, and the gov
eminent bankrupt, asking authority to
fill its Golfers by the issue of paper
money" The government was really
bankrupt. There was no money in the
treasury with which to pay the officers
and men of the army and navy, or its
other officials and employees. Govern
ment contractors were forced to borrow
money on quartermasters or other vouch-
ers, paying as high as per cent month
interest. This is matter within the
personal knowledge of the writer. Four
years later, or on March 81, 1861, the
financial condition of the National gov
eminent was in sad state. After thir-
teen years of peace it was 'saddled with
a debt of ss7, ZOO, 900, and it's credit was
so low that it could not borrow money in
the markets of Europe at its offered rate
of per cent, while the regular price was
as low as three and a half and three per
cent" Such were the results of Demo-
cratic rule in the past. Does any one
want to return to like conditions?

The mayors personal organ for many
months past has been waging war on the
business interests of Belfast, and has
proclaimed time and again that there
was no market here for anything farm
ers had to sell and that they had to pay
higher prices here than elsewhere for
what they bought. These oft-repeated
assertions are untrue, generally speak
ing, and The Journal has resented them
whenever occasion offered. But there
are exceptions which prove the rule, and
one of them was brought to our notice
last week. A resident of Monroe came
to Belfast on business, and among other
things wanted some job printing. He
called at the Herald Office and was told
