What Is an Anarchist?
ELLSWORTH, Aug. q, 1910.

ELLSWORTH, Aug. q, 1910.
To the Editor of The american:
visitor in Ellsworth, one who has had
experience in dealing with men and
things, suggested that in the liberty, de-
generating into license, which is allowed
American children we, OF this country,
are raising race of anarchists. The lis
teners exclaimed at the extravaganza OF
the remark.
"Who will define an anarchist?, asked
the visitor.
"One who defies law" volunteered some
one.
VERY good" said the first speaker;
''what, then, is the child, who, indefiance
OF law, steals fruit, trespasses on the prop
erty OF others and torments helpless
animals? Is it not a direct and logical
sequence from him TO the man, who, tax
ing law into his own hands, throws bombs,
wrecks trains, burns buildings and
murders to avenge real or imaginary
grievances?"
In these days when the world stands
aghast at the daily record Of crime in the
morning paper, it might be well to ponder
on the words which set to thinking the
little group who heard them that summer
evening

HA,SEs AND DuTToN
talk sound Republication at Han
cock Hall.


cock Hall.
,rha t;rst repu blican mass meeting In
ellsworth OF the campaign which is now
a, was held at Hancock hall last Thurs
ssv evening. The speakers were Hon.
Frank T.. Dutton, OF Augusta, and Hon.
william It. Haines, Of Waterville.
The hall was we'll filed. Many ladies
we're present and some democrats. Rarely
do political speakers hold the attention OF
an audience as did those OF last Thursday
evening. Each got right down to bust
pcss and told his story in plain,
straightforward way.
Hon. John A. Peters presided, and after
making short but highly interesting ad-
dress, introduced Mr.. Dutton as the first
sneaker OF the evening. MIR. Dutton con-
sned himself wholly TO State issues. He
smoke highly Of Mr.. Plaisted, the demo-
cratic candidate for governor, as . man
and neighbor, but made 1t very plain
why he opposed him as candidate for
governor.
Mr.. Haines followed in an address Of
about an hour, and was intently listened
70 throughout. At best the subject Of
taxation is a dry one, but Mr.. Haines'
handling OF 1t was interesting, instruc-
tive and convincing. He gave historic
cal sketch OF Names growth in wealth,
in resources, in expenditures, and showed
how she had grown and prospered under
republican management, and called at
tention to the fact that in all the
the years the republican party had been
responsible for the management OF her
business affairs, not tinge OF dishonesty
or graf n could be found.
He questioned the sincerity OF the demo-
cratic speakers in that they inaulged so
largely in haif-truths, " hich he character
lied as most dangerous.
Practically all financial questions, he
declared, were discussed and settled at a
legislative session on business principles,
politics rarely entering in, republican and
democrat alike striving for the best inter-
ests OF the State.
The speaker throughout impressed his
hearers with his broad knowledge OF pu b.
lie affairs, his sincerity and his fairness.
He handled statistics in a fashion easily
understood, and altogether made a most
convincing address.
The Ellsworth Falls concert band was in
attendance, and made good music.

COUNTY NEWS.


The death of Capt. Boyd Prescott Foss,
son Of Capt. Orlando w. Foss and wife, Of
this town, at the hospital in Melrose,
Mass, Sunday evening, was shock to his
family and friends here.
Capt. Foss, who was taken i'll of typhoid
fever while on the passage north from
Fernandina, Fla, in his vessel, the
schooner John Maxwell, left the vessel
upon her arrival at Stonington, Conn,
and entered the hospital some four weeks
ago. After serious illness he gradually
gained strength, and news OF his con-
dition was most encouraging up to few
days before his death which followed a
sudden relapse.
Capt. Foss was but thirty-one years OF
age, and perhaps the youngest master
mariner in command Of deep-sea vessels
hailing from Hancock county. In fact, he
was barely twenty years of age when
he was given command OF the schooner
John Paul, which he sailed several years,
afterward taking command OF the John
Maxwell, in which he owned an interest.
He was capable navigator, and had been
most successful in his career.
He was highly esteemed by his acquain-
tances afioat and ashore, and his untimely
death causes sorrow extending far beyond
his own family circle. His death is the
first break in the family. Besides his par
ents, he leaves five sisters and three broth
ers. He married, two years ago, Miss Grace
Iaskey, OF Boston, who survives him.
He was prominent member Of
David Hooper lodge, F. and A. NJ, at Sui
livan,, OF the Omaha tribe Of Red Men, and
Elinee council OF Pocahontas, Hancock.
The funeral will be held at Hancock this
afternoon, Rev. z. A. A. Killam officiating.

ment of the organization in this city of
a branch of the American Woman's

Mrs. Corey Albritten, the national organ
izer, who is leading the movement for
the formation OF "A branch here, reports
excellent results, and says there is not
the slightest doubt that the project will
go through.
No small amount of interest is being
taken in the proposed league, especially
by the club women of Salt Lake. They
realize that the women should have
club house like the men, and are con-
WINGED that the American WOmans
league will afford this advantage The
offer of the national league IS to provide
a club house at cost OF $4,000, as soon as
q membership of 200 is attained, and this
is what the women are now working for.
The club house to be given upon reach
ing the 200 mark Will be completely
furnished and equipped, and viii contain
every modern convenience that the man
of today enjoys at his favOrite clubs.
The offer of the national body has been
thoroughly investigated by interested men
and women Of Salt Lake. and all are con-
WINGED that exceptionally good advantages
will result from their boosting for the
formation of a branch in this city.
Among the advantages offered by the
American WOman's league are educa-
tiOnal facilities, wider social congress
between the members and other benefits
too numerous TO mention. It IS urged that
every woman in the city who is inter
ested in the movement attend the meet
ing Wednesday and that the membership
list be swelled as rapidly as possible, so
that the club house for Salt Lake may be
assured.

Mr.. Potter said yesterday that the de-
vice, in his opinion, was superior to the
block signal system in that it could be
installed for tenth part of the cost of
the block system, and yet would give
the same results.
The device is simple in construction,
and consists of a battery. or. each train
connected with a warning bell in the
