The u S. Senate committee that is
Investigating the cost of living had be-
fore them the other day the proprietor
of local grocery and meat market, who
said he had to do twice as much business
and to charge more than he did ten years
ago 10 make the same amount of money.
He estimated that the cost Of help had
increased about ten per cent in ten years.
That IS probably true everywhere, and is
certainly true in Belfast. To go back
thirty years the difference would be even
greater. While prices to consumers have
greatly advanced in the past few years
the profits of the retailers are much
smaller than in the era Of low prices,
while expenses have enormously in
creased. The delivery of goods and call
ing for orders requires extra clerks and
the maintenance of teams; while gas or
electric lights, steam heat, city water,
telephones, ETC., swell the expense ac-
count. The Washington grocer quoted
above said that the biggest advance in
meat prices he ever knew was in the
past two years, and that covering a
period of fifteen years prices had re-
manned stationary on all kinds of canned
vegetables, canned fruits, sugar and oil.
Flour had increased about twenty-five
per cent in price. Senator Lodge SUBJ
mitted an old document showing that
there was time in the past when prices
were unusually high. A private memoir
anGum kept by a clerk in 1886 showed
that the price OF sugar was fourteen
cents q pound, flour S. barrel and illu-
minating oil 81 per gallon. On the other
hand labor was paid only seventy-fve
cents day. At later session the COM
nittee had before them Wallace L. Pierce
of the Boston firm of S. S. Pierce & Co.,
grocers. Mr.. Pierce did not charge the
tariff generally with the increase in the
price of groceries, except with respect
to olive oil and macaroni. By increasing
the duty on tin cans and paper, he said,
the price had been advanced from one
quarter to one-half cent pound. Cues
toned as to the profits, Mr.. Pierce stated
that his firm was capitalized at 81, OOO, 900
and had surplus of 100000. Its gross
profits had fallen off 500, 900, in the last
year, but Mr.. Pierce was unable to state
any special reason for the drop. Import
ed goods had advanced in price along with
domestic in the last ten years, the in
crease averaging twenty-five per cent.
His firm was satisfied with a profit of
ten to twelve per cent on its wholesale
business, he said. and fifteen or little
more on it's retail Mr.. Pierce made the
point that costs of all kinds, including
basic staples and wages, had increased
in ten years, and the causes were SO
varied that he could not definitely at
tribute them to any one source.

BASKET BALL.

The most exciting and hotly contested game
of the season was played at the Opera House
Wednesday evening, March 30th, when the
Belfast High were defeated by Durfee High
of Fall River, Mass. The visitors were heavier
! and older men than the local team and had
benefited by their practice since arriving here
March 26th. They played remarkably fast
game and their long-range basket shooting
was excellent. Borden at rb. won them the
game. The Belfast boys did not show their
usual form and speed. Several of the men
were out of condition and there were several
changes of position. The team has no excuse
to offer and were fairly beaten by the fastest
aggregation that has ever been here. Time
was called on three occasions for slight in
juries. At the close of the first half the score
was IA to IL in favor of Fall River and at the
finish they only led Belfast three points. At
the close of the game the mayor, in behalf of
a number of citizens, presented the team with
handsome bouquet and they were given three
hearty cheers. The summary:

The work of excavation now IN prog
ress for the much needed extension of
the post Office is a reminder that to Con-
gresham Burleigh is due the credit not
only for the appropriation for this build
ing but for the increased postal force
which renders this addition necessary.
Six r. F. D. carriers depart from and
arrive at the Belfast post office daily
and there are few houses in the county,
no matter how isolated that do not have
mail left at their door every day. The
general appropriation for this service is
necessarily limited in amount and every
Congressman naturally strives to secure
as many R. F. D. routes for his district
as possible, and few districts in the coun
try have Jared as well as the third Maine
district represented by Hon. Edwin c.
Burleigh.

ject being to create an interest in the raising

has increased u millions in the same

[An address delivered before the Con-
ference for Education In the South, at
Little Rock, Arkansas. April 4, 1901
One OF your Committee on program
has written me that 1t was the desire
OF the committee that 1 should give
my experience and observation In re-
gard to the consolidation OF schools
and the transportation OF children.
This, then, is my excuse for the
seeming provincialism OF discussing
this topic from the viewpoint OF
actual experience In my native State.
The literature OF the subject Is bound
less. You are no doubt as familiar
with 1t as 7 am. but your committee,
at least, Is interested In an answer
to the question, How do these things
work in Virginia?"
BY consolidation Is meant the group
ing or small schools into central
school. The number OF our schools
consolidated has varied from two to
seven. Sometimes these consultations
are effected without public transporta-
tion, and sometimes with 1t. We have
no ironclad rule, and Will not have
one, because children and population
and community conditions do not group
themselves according to ironclad rules.
We take the conditions as we find
them, and act accordingly.
When consolidation and transpor-3
tation were started as definite policies
lin Virginia five years ago, there were,
naturally prophecies OF certain failure.

everywhere: that the people will not
consent to give up their little schools:
that the distances arc too great for.

schools without great hardship; that
the roads are too bad to haul the chill
dren; that the children will freeze to
death, or at least be frost-bitten while
waiting for the wa gons or while being
transported; and that the cost Is too
great
Each OF these objections has been
successfully met. shall not attempt
to take them up seriatin. but hope
to answer each objection while dis
cussing this subject.
During the fifth year of this policy
we have from 100 to 100 wagons run
ming In all sections OF the State, and
under almost every possible condition.
We have routes as long as eight miles,
and as short as two and q hair miles.
We have wagons on good roads and
bad roads; on level roads and
mountain roads; on rocky roads and
sand roads; on macadam roads sud
