Much satisfaction was felt and pleasure
manifested by our townspeople generally upon
hearing of the appointment of our former
townsman, Sheriff Amos F. Carleton, to the
position of postmaster in our shire town. Mr..
Carleton is unquestionably man of unusual
ability and the right man in the right place,
and it does not seem to matter what is the
place-a fact that no one knows better than
the Waldo county rumsellers, their supporters
and hirelings. =. The farmers are giving a
royal welcome and plenty of patronage to Mr..
F. E. Learned, formerly of Milo, who recently
bought the farm, home and blacksmith shop of
Mr. Charles Littlefeld. Mr. Learned is an ex-

need Of such for some time here, especially
one who could handle the heavier draft horses,
as all the resident smiths in this locality are

of work. The Longfellow school reopened
