WHY SALvES FAIL
TO CURE ECZEMA

Scientist are now agreed that the
eczema germs arc lodged not in the
outer skin or epidermis, but in the
inner skin. Hence. a penetrating
liquid is required, not an outward
salve that clogs the pores.
We recommend to all eczema pa
tients the standard prescription Oil
of Wintergreen as compounded in
liquid form known as ID. ID. d. Pres
cription. A trial bottle of this ID.
ID. d. Prescription at only rs cents,
will instantly relieve the itch. We
have sold and recommended this
remedy for years, and know of won.
Dserful cures from its use. We rec
ommend it to our patrons.

GIANT ELM
One of the City's Landmarks
Destroyed by Wheels
of Progress.

A large elm tree in the lawn of
Mr. r. T. Cooper, on Thirteenth
street, near the Pioneer Graveyard,
was dug up last week to make way
for concrete walks with which MIR.
Cooper is surrounding his place. The
tree was perhaps the largest of the
many large elms about the city,
being q feet in diameter near the
ground. IL was comparatively low,
witL broad-spreading branches, and
one of che top branches was showing
signs ef decay. The monster tree
was dug up. the excavation left be-
ing large enough for a cellar. A
young shade cree will be planted in
its place. There are two other big
elms ia the same lawn, butnot near
iy so large as the old familiar land
mark that stood neAr the gate. The
fence has also heea removed and
when Mr.. Cooper gets through with
his srovements the place will not
be recognized. 1t is one of the old
time houses, built many years ago
About 35 years ago il was owned by
the late w. H. Howe. who later
sold it to the late F. L. Ellis. Mr.
Cooper bought it ten or twelve
years ago and has improved it from
time to time.

For a Fair Fight

In order to prevent, SO far as possi-
BILE, the corrupt use of money by the
organized liquor interests, we favor
and will work for the enactment of a
law embracing these features:
Before any man can legally dis
burse funds for political purposes, he
shall place ON record certificate that
he is acting as a political agent. II his
activities are to be confined to one
town, the certificate shall go to the
town clerk; If more than one town. to
the county clerk; II more than one
county, to the secretary of state.
Political agents shall keep a COM
plete record of all moneys received
and disbursed, giving names, address
es, and for what purposes paid.
These records shall be open to pub
lie inspection.
Upon challenge any voter shall be
required to make oath that he has not
been corruptly influenced regarding
the exercise of his franchise, prior to
casting his ballot.

Collapse of the Conventions

The leading political parties OF
Massachusetts held their state con-
yentions in Boston last week. Each
gathering was of an extreme type, and
the contrast between them most pro-
nounced. Commenting thereon Dud-
ley writes in the Boston Globe
The Republicans sat in grave de-
corum befitting the religious enyi-
ronment of fremont temple. Order
never reigned in Warsaw more rigor-
ously. Every motion that was made
had been duly scheduled by pro-
phetic state committee. Every voice
lifted had been carefully coached in
the calm of the Republican headquar-
ters. Virtually every speech made
had been revised or inspired.
The entire show was but highly
successful full dress rehearsal, In
which everyone who had been favored
by the management with speaking
part proved himself letter-perfect.
The delegates were the invited
guests at the performance. They could
not have borne themselves more
quietly If they had been the assembled
inmates of an institution for the deaf
and dumb.
From the somnolent scene in Ire
mont temple let us turn now 10 the
seething tumult of Faneull hall, where
fierce and unterrified democracy
rocked the cradle of liberty with un-
gentle hands and to the strains OF no
soothing lullaby. There, instead Of
one great smooth-running machine,
we were deafened by the hoarse din
of several machines in noisy competi-
ton.
To use up seven or eight hours in
completing two ballots and then ad-
iourn turning over the real business
of the day-the nomination of state
ticket-to four men, Is the reproach
which the Faneuil hall convention
really deserves.
Has not the convention system col
lapsed before our eyes? If 1t blew
out its brains in one instance, was 1t
not asphyxiated in the other? Does not
the torpor of fremont temple equally
with the turbulent fiasco of Faneuil
hall force upon us the lesson that the
time has come when the work of nom
mating candidates must be taken
away from conventions and turned
over to the people?"

SENATOR-ELECT DODGE
or CLINTON
Another of Those Strong Men Carried
Into Ofiice by Landslide.

Senator-elect Howard w. Dodge of
Clinton, is another of those strong
men carried into office on the late
political landslide Mr. Dodge had
time and again received such gifts as
the law gave his fellow townsmen
power to confer. together with many
of a private nature, but in the larger
field he has been less favored. Clinton
was in the legislative class with
Unity Plantation and the town of
Winslow, the latter especially being a
Republican stronghold. AS a candi-
date for office his name has frequently
appeared on the county ticket. but
hitherto in vain. Yet his faith in
Democracy never wavered, and when
his neghbors learned of his final re-
ward, they gave him a grand sere-
made.
Mr.. Dodge was born on a farm in
Clinton in 1898 and has always been
identified with that municipality. For
30 years he conducted a general
store retiring to earn his well earn
ed rest, about six years ago. He
The independent-reporter., 1910-10-20

was first selectman for eight years
and town clerk for many more. Year
in and year out he has borne the
Drunt of the local political battles,
both as chairman of the Democratic
town committee and as a member of
county and legislative class organiza-
tion. Largely to his personal work
Is due the fact that the party vote in
Clinton has remained relatively large.
When a former Clinton man found
ed the Brown Memorial Library few
years ago, Mr. Dodge was chosen a
trustee and he was also elected vice
president of the recently organized
Board of Trade. AS diligent work
er for the common good, he has also
been prominently identified with the
local branch of the Grange and the
Methodist Episcopal church.
In addition to standing for election
in the Office of Representative and
Sheriff, Mr.. Dodge has run for senator
on three previous occasions. Thus it
is that his election comes to crafty
long cherished ambition and to
round out a highly honorable career.

so drawn and enforced as to reach
and stop surreptitious corruption of
the electorate? We already
have law against bribery. but Its
enforcement is VIGOROUSLY difficult"
Our esteemed contemporary over
looks one fundamental difference be-
tween the laws destined to prevent
corrupt practices. and those against
bribery. The man charged with the
latter crime cannot be compelled to
testify against himself. Enforcement
of the corrupt practice acts starts
with sworn statement by the ac-
cused. which Is admissible as evil
dence in a trial for perjury. To con-
vict a man OF perjury is childs play
compared with getting a verdict of
guilty under a charge of bribery
If a man commits perjury in max
ing out the required statement, and
escapes the consequences of the law,
he is still liable to blackmail by the
other parties to his corrupt bargains.
Between the devil of perjury and the
deep sea of blackmail. most men final
ly conclude that honesty is the best
policy
Every practical man knows that
the dirty work" in politics is done
through local agents who know the
yenal voters personally. These men
are willing to handle the filthy lucre
because the methods in vogue permit
them to steal more or less of what is
entrusted to them Men higher up
have no affinity for Jail sentences. and
1t is easy to make them distribute
their contributions through registered
political agents. Then just let in the
light of publicity and the change Is
remarkable all around. In some
places the basic idea of the corrupt
practice law has been carried on to the
individual by providing that: Upon
challenge, any voter shall be required
~ uldhe OdJu- THAT lie has uOl DceIt
corruptly influenced prior to casting
his ballot. When called upon to take
this OATH the yenal voter has no
means of knowing what evidence his
challenger may already hold against
him. He does know whether or not
he is about to commit penitentiary
offence. Those who have witnessed
the working of this law testify that
challenged voters frequently turn
away from the polls rather than take
the oath specified.
A corrupt practice act drawn to
/ include the best features of laws that
are working we'll elsewhere, would
leave the question of prohibition ver-
sus license in Maine to be settled on
Its merits. The man who is not sat
/ isfied to have it settled by the elector-
ate after a full and free discussion,
belongs under different form of gov
ernment than ours.

Are we Doing Our Best

Names leading educators have been
discussing industrial education for
several years. At the State Board of
Trade meeting here last month Prof.
Smith presented the subject In way
that very evidently met with the ap-
proval of his audience. Everybody
in fact seems to favor the idea, yet
the progress of the movement is not
rapid.
Commenting on this fact the Super
intendent of Schools in one of our
thriving cities said: 1--WE can't do
half the things we know ought to be
done because the school boards are
so conservative. They are afraid the
public won't understand, and so try
to avoid criticism"
Seems pity that the rising gener-
alton should be deprived of the things
they will need most within a very few
years, just because their grandfath-

ours. What is Skowhegan doing in
the line Of industrial education? Are
we doing all that we might by our
selves? If so, what are we doing to-
wards getting more help from the
State? We doubt IL the average man
on the street has ever looked into
the matter enough to answer the
above questions.
Just to bring the matter up in due
form, we move that Superintendent
Perkins be invited to address some
future meeting of the Board of Trade
and tell us just where Skowhegan
stands In the matter of Industrial
education. What we are doing now
and what we ought to plan for doing

tuberculosis Germs.

"If a person who has tuberculosis
drinks out of a cup and then another
person should drink out of the same
cup before the cup has been washed.
the germ may be transmitted in this
way" says James Jenkins, Jr, In
Woman's Home Companion for Octo-
ber. Boiling water kills germs as
effectively as any antiseptic, and
fishes should never be considered
absolutely clean that have not been
washed in this way Two persons
should never use the same towel. The
ulan of individual washstands, which
is so commonly used on the continent
in Europe. should be more generally
adopted in America.
IF you have telephone in your
house, the mouthpiece of the tele-
phone should be cleaned every day,
Just as we clean the dishes we use on
the table. and should be thoroughly
disinfected at least twice a week.
Germs of pneumonia, bronchitis, tu-
berculosis and other things may be
caught from a telephone.
"A good formula for a disinfectant
is a few drops of formaldehyde in a
two-ounce bottle of water, adding
enough extract of lavender or some
other pleasant-smelling extract, so
that the odor remaining after the
mouth-piece is cleaned will be- agree
able. Any druggist could mix such a
disinfectant for you very easily and
inexpensively."
