Heavy Damage by Storm
To Telephone and Light Cos,

The storm. which has ragged in this
city and vicinity for the past two days,
has been {, severe one and has done
heavy damage by the heavy, damp
snow. The greatest sufferers in this
section are the New England Tele-
phone Co. and lighting companies.
The Telephone company sent crews
from all parts of the State to this
Icity and vicinity Wednesday to re-
pair damage done. The direct line
from this city to Bangor was down
ali day, caused by fallen poles and
broken arms. On the Neck road in
Benton IL poles were down and 20
cross-arms We're broken. The line to
SkoWhegan was cut somewhere above
iinckley, but the company did not
nave men enough to repair that line
Wednesday. Poles were found down
in Winslow and in Oakland. about
two miles from the town. there was
more trouble. In the town of Oakland
a large tree fell directly across cable.
In this city 26O parties We're without
contamination for the greater part
of the day. In Fairfield Sc were af-
fected. The trunk line to New York
was not repaired until late in the day.

To give you some idea of the magnitude
of the number Of framps we take care
of, will say thatithis year we will have
had about 1000 against about 400 last
year, showing that they are on the in-
crease 1t seems to me that with some
effort mission of some kind might be
established where those who wish to
could work and earn enough to pay for a
lodging and a meal or two on their trav-
els, and in so doing there would be a
great tendency to clear up our residential
sections.
All of these things, to my mind, are
betterment to our community. If any
thing that l have suggested meets with
the approval of the Churchman'S Fedora
ton am sure it will meet with the ap-
prevail of my department. and / will be
very glad to cooperate with your honor
able Federation in anything suggested
by it.
Wishing yOn all n very pleasant eve
ming, and may success crown your every
effort, am yours very truly,

City Marshal Richardson

City Marshal Charles NJ Richardson,
who was on the program for an ad-
dress on The Cooperation of the Fed
GRAFTON and the Police Force" was I'M
able to be present, but sent a letter,
which was read by Prof. John Hedman
as follows:
Waterville. Me-, Nov 50, 1910.
10 the Members of the Watervlle
Churchmens Federation. Greeting from
Charles NJ. Richardson, City Marshal:
Fully approaching your kind and hon
ored invitation to attend and participa tie
IN your supper and meeting and also re-
membering how much | enjoyed the pre-
vious one that | attended, it is with much
regret that | shall not be able to attend,
on account of a previous engagement.
But although | am una BILE ito be there in
person, my spirit is with you as it is in
all organizations for good
The subject ! was to have spoken on
if | had been able to attend was: How
Can the Churchman'S Federation Co-op-
crate with the Police Department." And
| suppose that means to the betterment
of the community. And | will say right
here at the outset that YOU are not miss
ing any treat in not hearing me speak.
for | am not a speaker in any sense, and
perhaps in writing this little missile may
not be able to suggest anything of much
interest to you, but will say that any
suggestions coming from an organization
made up of as clean and wholesome a
membership as your Churchman'S FEEDER
alton. to my mind ought to be given the
closest attention and consideration. Your
Federation in itself is the biggest help I
know of to the police department and
also To the community and to increase
Your Federation in membership as large
as it possibly can he made is the best
way can see to do our police depart
ment the greatest possible good.
OF course we can say that we all know
this. but that one thing looks the hest
to me.
Another thing I might suggest in a
growing city like ours is that a police
matron would be of good service. An
other suggestion is that literature left at
the Office for distribution to the inmates
of the Jail would be a good thing Also
it might he a good idea to have one of
your Federation come each day, in the
morning. as that is the most convenient
time. and give the inmates a talk in the
line Of good advice.
Sometimes these things do a world of
good
Still another thing to my mind, and if
it could be handled in cooperation with
the police department would be a great
thing for our community, that is in
some way to take care of our travelling
fraternity. Or in other words, perhaps
more familiar. the tramps that infest the
city. Now Waterville gets a very large
share of these on account of its being n
railroad center, and a great many of
these tramps. as we call them. are good
honest fellows, willing to work but un-
able to find it, while there others of them

terests, accommodate right to right.
establish equity, and bring the peace
that will come with genuine and
hearty cooperation, and will come in
no other way
1t is a joy to recognize in the pres
ent mayor of Waterville a true repre-
sentative of this noble line of law
yers, who are friends and guides OF
the people in the service of liberty" and
in the development of the equities OF
a genuinely progressive democracy.
All workers for the higher life and
advancement of Waterville have found
in you, honorable mayor. a lawyer-cit-
izen embodying and expressing, in all
relations and actions, the spirit of that
IDEAL lawyer of the old school, for
whose restoration to dominance in our
public life Woodrow Wilson so fer
vently pleads. We have found You
studying. and growing in experiences by
intention. that you might prove IN
creasinGly fitted as an expert adviser
in carrying forward every good enter
prise which could help the city or tie
state.
We have no purpose to recount in dc
tail your many services, but rather to
remind you and ourselves that there
can be no break, no suspension of the
activity of such a life in the commu-
nifty without Il sense of general i'm
punishment and which does not result
in deeper impulse of all good citi-
zens to emulate such an example and
complete the undertakings to which
such a life is dedicated as your life is
dedicated. In the Divine law of the con-
scrvation of moral and social energies
we register the conviction, which is an
actual experience of our hearts, that
You have been far more actively and
fruitfully the mayor of our city and a
big brother to the whole people than
you may have realized in the isolation
and weakness of YOUR days of enforced
rest from the active duties of your Of
flee.
Once more permit us to give you our
Loving and grateful greetings, with the
assurance of our appreciation for all
your services and our heartfelt hopes
and prayers for your recovery CT
health. In every difficult hour our love
and sympathy are wholly yours. God
keep You brave and hold you highly
all the while "Surely the equity Of
Providence will balance peculiar suf-
fcrings with peculiar enjoyments," and
W. feel that you must have been grow
ing greatly in that wisdom and depth
of life which God distils in the alembic
of hearts which suffer. He who was
made perfect by the things which he
suffered must be very near to you. and
must be sustaining YOU and your dear
est ones by the consultations of His Di-
vine effection.
BY vote of the Federation the mes
sage was conveyed by Rev. T.. G. Whit
temore to Mayor Fuller.
