Oliver BOwley, a member of the 14th
Legislature from the class towns OF
Mt. Desert, southwest Harbor, Ire
mont, Cranberry Island and swans
Island. who was also on the committee
on sea and shore fisheries, is out with
an opcn letter containing facts and
suggestions of value in regard to tho
herring industry of the state of Maine
Mr.. Bowley says that he believes that
the time has come when all interested
either directly or indirectly in the
herring industry should approach the
matter in n sensible way, and all those
directly interested in the fisheries
should come together as friends of the
industry and not as enemies and en-,
deavor to recommend to the next Leg

to the whole industry

AN 1mP0s1OKs THICK.
The Cheerful Liar That Made a Fool
Of the Grand Monarch.


Louis XIV. was taken in once in q

poster whose only art was lying. In
1867, just after he had returned frcm
one of his most dazzling military sue
cesses against the Dutch, Louis lie
Grand received word that an embassy
from Persia had just landed at Mar
settles en- route to the French court to
bring salutations and presents from
the shah. Pleased that his fame
should actually have run around the
world, he sent word that all the towns
on the way from Marseilles to Paris
should fete the ambassador.
As result the journey to Paris was
a march of triumph. Children sang
and flowers were strewn along lhs
way. Arrived at Paris, several regi
ments of the Swiss guard met Thu
shah's representative and escorted hin
to magnificent suit in the old palade
of the Tuileries. Louis sent no leks

NEW WAY TO HATCH CHICKENS
Electric Light Does 1t One Day Quicker
Now Than Mother Hen Can.

Electric Light Does 1t One Day Quicker
Now Than Mother Hen Can.
Old mother hen may not have
chance to hatch her own chicks any
more, for there is way Of doing it
by electric light now which puts the
old fashioned way far in the back
ground. AT the poultry show at Mad
ison Square Garden, in New York, the
other day scores of chickens were
hatched by electric light under n glass
globe where every one could see the
process. The electric lights keep the
temperature inside the globe at q de-
gree which brings the chicks out Of
the shell one day quicker than mother
hen ever did it. The chicks came into
the world fast, and New Workers look
ed on with open mouthed surprise.
But. strange as it was for the folks
who walked from Broadway to see the
novel improvement on nature, it was
even more surprising to the farmers
who were attracted to the city to see
the newest wrinkles in poultry rails
ing.
One could see the egg crack and soon
notice a tiny beak pecking at the
crack until there was small hole.
Gradually the chick pecked away
enough she'll to poke itS head out and
soon broke the shell away until it tum-
bled out free, healthy, featherless
chick. And if one happened to come
around again in an hour he could see
the feathers grow and the chick hop
ping around inside the glass globe.

Ii the bosses down at Washington

would not be pursuing the course there
that they are. In plain terms the issue
between the contending factions is this:
Shall member of congress be a free
man to represent the will of the people
OF his district or shall he surrender his
vote to the Headers" The Cannon
forces, with the apparent approval of
President Taft. have undertaken to say
that unless member of congress shall
yield his own convictions and vote as
they dictate he shall be ruled out of the
party ard the party organization will
attempt to defeat him for re- election.
That sort Of coercion will defeat the re-
publican party 50 surely as it is per
sisted in. The west will never stand
for Gannonism again. If this is to be
representa- tive government the mem
bers of congress must be left free to
represent the people without either the
charge of party disloyalty or the fear
OF party opposition to his re- election.
President Taft is the enigma of the
century. He is progressive in his talks
and advocates progressive legislation.

GREAT STATE PARK

Harriman's Gift to New York Provides
Recreation Ground Sixty Miles Long.
Recreation for generations yet to
come is provided for in the gift to the
state Of New York of 10000 acres Of
mountain and forest on the west bank
of the Hudson river and the offer Of
$1,0O0,000 made by Mrs. q. FL. Harri-
man in carrying out the wishes Of heR
late husband. the railroad magnate
and financier. Mr.. Hartman foresaw
that the congestion of population
which is bound to come in the succeed
ing decades would require that some
proper provision be made for the great
metropolitan district of New York city.
The property which the state should
acquire in order to carry out the idea
would include an additional $4,000
acres near Arden as well as the land
along the shore of the Hudson, which
would extend the parking Of the Pail
sades from the end of the present res
ervation, near Nyack, to Newburg.
AS 1t appears in the maps now In the
possession of the commissioners of the
Palisades Interstate park the proposed
reservation in Orange and Rockland
counties will extend back ten miles
from the Hudson to the neighborhood
of Tuxedo and will be from FIVE to six
miles in width at its broadest point.
The tract combining the Hartman
gift and the land to be acquired is
pear shaped in form. 1t consists of
mountains and forest and abounds in
every natural charm. Whatever may
be done, it is necessary that there
shall be sufficient outlet from the
property in the Hartman tract to the
river and az much more as is neces-
sary to insure an adequate park for
the needs Of future teeming millions.
The idea had been in the mind of
Mr.. Hartman for years, and the OBJ
tanning of the other subscriptions has
largely been due to George W. Per-
kins. president of the New York state
Palisade commission. who for several
years has been working in the inter
ests of the plan.
Should the state OF New York accept
the offer Of Mrs. Hartman there will
be continuous park extending along
the shore of the Hudson river from
Fort Lee ferry to Newburg, distance
OF sixty miles. The states of New
York and New Jersey, through a joint
commission. were able to stop the
blasting for trap rock which was ruin.
ing the Palisades and conserved the
strip of the shore. including the face
of the cliffs, as far as Piermont.

1T seems that Col. LATE Young has
read his bible to little purpose when
ne sets up the claim that Moses and
Noah and the other patriarchs were
standpatters. Moses was one of the
hrst 'progressives." He was the leader
OF the children of Israel taking them
from Egyptian bondage to the land Of
Canaan. He had his troubles in trying
to do good to his people. in the struggle
to reach the promised land, as is seen
IN Numbers, Chap. A-2: And all the
children OF Israel murrnurad against
Moses and Aaron and the whole con-
gregation said unto them would God
that we had died in the land Of Egypt"
The colonel also claims that Noah was
a standpatter which is monstrous
perversion OF history. Noah under
stood from the signs Of the times that
the corrupt condition OF THINGS could
not last. He obeyed the command Of
God. and proceeded to build the ark.
