The Third District Represented.

The convention of the Republicans
of the Third Congressional district,
held IN this city Tuesday afternoon,
was representative of the splendid per
sonnet of the Republican party The
principles expressed in the platform
are likewise representative of the faith
for which the Republicans of this dis
trict have toiled and fought these
many years. and which they have up
held by inspiring victory over the shib-
boleths of tariff reform" and Bryan
ism.
Throughout all, the Republicans of
this district have kept the faith. They
progressive legislation and the most
efficient and credtable conduct of pub
lie affairs merit their approval and
support.
AS was expected. the Republicans of
this district have unanimously renomi-
rated Edwin c. Burleigh as their cam
diddte for representative to Congress.
Judged by his record no man could
have heen named more representative
of the principles of the Republican
party or of the people of this district.
Like them, he has been tried and not
found wanting. To the magnificent
work accomplished by Congress he has
ably contributed. There is not one res
dent of this district. whatever may be
his political views. but has found Mr..
Bulleigh faithful public servant, de-
voting his energies to those duties
which he believes will be most produce
tive of the welfare of the people Of his
district, his State and the country.
We confidently expect the voters of
this district to express their approval
of Republican principles and his dis
tinguished service in their behalf by
giving the ticket rousing majority

In 1909 the rate for state taxation

In 1909 the rate for state taxation.
the direct tax of the State upon it's
people never was so low. with the
exception only of 1908, when there
was no Legislature to provide for since
1920 when Maine became State!
In 1909 there was Legislature with
its 10000 cost for the Fernald admins
tration to meet.
What better record could men of in

Republicans during Governor Fer

Tuesday morning we watched eight
circus horses pulling heavy van up
Rines Hill They were beautiful
horses and we looked on with adj
miration at the manner in which each
animal spunkily strained. with every
muscle in action, to do his part in the
work given him to do. BY and by, all
working, together, the four pair of
horses easily landed the big wagon
over the crest of the hill
The episode suggested our present
political campaign. There are two
big vans at the bottom of the hill of
the political campaign of 1910 and
each wagon. in imagination, may be
considered to contain the public af-
fairs of our State. The Republican
wagon. drawn by the magnificent team
of the substance. and intelligence. and
ability, and patriotism, of the masses
of Maine voters is already success
fully halfway up the hill. Stuck in
the mud of resubmission and political
pacity the Democratic van is still
at the bottom of the hill. From its
predicament, its team of Democratic
office seekers is vainly struggling to
extricate the vehicle but without APP
parent prospects of success.

greatest conventions, ever held in

And this same flower that smiles today
Tomorrow will be dying.
The glorious lamp of Heaven. the sun,
The higher he's a-getting.
The sooner will his race be run,
And nearer he's to setting.
That age is best which is the first,
When youth and blood are warmer;
But, being spent, the worse. and worst
Time shall succeed the former.
Then be not coy. but use your time,
And while ye may, go marry;
For, having lost but once your prime.
