visiting Maine, and sailing along the shores.
There is no place in the State where the pres,.

and there is none among the places in Maine
that has a warmer reception for President
Taft than has Ellsworth. We trust him to-
day. We welcome him, and, Mr.. President.
wherever you may 10 in this state. or in anv
other state, you will find no place with
warmer hearts and people more trustful
in you and In yourSrea, services to the re-
public than has Ellsworth.
1 am very glad and proud. my friends and
neighbors, to present the President of tho
United States.
