A Suggestion from Bridgton.

Whether Ex-Governor and ex-Congressman
E. G. Burleigh is to be called to congressional
candidacy in 1912 or no it is now too early to
predict; still the time is ripe to suggest that by
ganizing ability unsurpassed, he is the one
man in the public view just now best adapted
to the Craftsmanship of the Republican State
committee of any man in Maine. If the party
be anything more than Renaissance in the
coming campaign it needs thorough re-or-
ganization, possibly publication, as we view
the situation from afar. Small business for an
ex-Congressman, did some one say? Recall
that James G. Blaine for many years held this
position and invariably carried the banners to
victory. First call back the sulkers. through
efficient organization; then the naming of rep
resentatives and even senators will be far less
difficult than now.-Mayor Shorey in the
Bridgton News.

The ladies of Silver Crown Lodge, Pythian
Sisters, did themselves proud last Thursday
evening The brethren of the order were in
vited to be present and the sisters proceeded
to do the part of hostesses in fine shape. The
hall had been decorated with red, white and
blue, the ladies were nicely dressed, and every
thing looked mighty fine. Then, after the regu-
lar work, Tasker's orchestra got into action and
there was music and marching and social pleas
ure galore. Tables were then placed and finch
was played to the limit Then all repaired to
the banquet room, where one of the incest
lunches of the season was in readiness. The
tables had been decorated with flowers and
presented very fine appearance. The breth-
rem are even now enquiring when the next one
will be. They will be mighty sure to get US
when they say the word.
1t was an enjoyable day to the crowd of peo-
pie who were at the Congregational church
last Sunday afternoon. A profusion of flowers
had been obtained from the Belfast florist and
the display was very attractive and appropri-
ate. The pastor, Rev Mr.. Booth, gave fine
address and after the regular service an Easter

During the campaign last year Mr..
Pattangall included in his charges of Re-
publican extravaganza the maintaining of
the Office of assistant attorney general,
declaring it to be unnecessary. At that
time he probably did not expect to hold
the office of attorney general himself
But when after the election the Water
vile ring proceeded to apportion the
spoils among themselves this Office fell
to Pattangall. 1t was decided, however,
that he was needed on the floor of the
house, and another was appointed to
hold the Office temporarily, to resign at
the end of the session, and this program,
arranged not in the public interest but
for political convenience, was carried
out. Meanwhile to keep his campaign
pledges, Mr.. Pattangall had put bill
through the legislature abolishing the
office of assistant attorney general. But
it does not take effect until July LIST, and
last week Mr.. Pattangall appointed
Cyrus r. Upper, the temporary attor-
Hey Id, doololdHI dlloIHey general,
and he will draw the salary until July
LIST. Now if this Office is unnecessary,
as Mr.. Pattangall has repeatedly declar-
ed, and needless expense, why should
it be continued? The salary to be drawn
for this Office might have been left in the
State treasury or have been used to pay
some of the just claims referred to the
next legislature.

the newspapers of the State there was mis-
take in chapter 1877. can act to consolidate the
management of the State institutions for the
insane and feeble minded" AS it appeared in
the newspapers section FIVE read: "Said hospital
trustees shall receive no compensation except
actual expenses" This section should have
read: "Said hospital trustees shall receive S.

The records in the office of the Secretary of
State are correct.

Aroostook Potato Shipments.

BANGOR, Me-. April IA. Shipments of pota-
toes from Aroostook county up to Thursday
night from the 1910 crop were 9,10s,4 91 BUSH
els or 1875, 600 bushels more than on the same
date last year
1t is estimated that about 10 per cent of the
crop is now remaining in storage and that this
will be moved as soon as the roads are in better
condition. The prevailing price paid by buyers
is firm at $1.25 barrel, but is expected to ad-
vance to $3.50 in the cleaning up.
The acreage for this year is uncertain but it
is believed will be up to the average.

A recent visitor to The Journal office
said he had had something to do with
locating manufacturing concern, and
that one of their enquiries was as to the
banks of the place. 1t was found that
with population of 5000, and four
banks, the total deposits were less than
one million and half. Belfast, with a
population of less than 5000. has nearly
four millions in its three banks, and the
visitor considered that remarkable
showing. Indeed, we doubt if any town
or city in the State of like size can show
as much. Then our banks are all paying

Washington, D. c.. April IA. Presi-
dent Taft is determined battles between
Mexican federalists and insurrectos shall
not be fought on American soil. He is
equally determined the lives of American
non combatants shall not be endangered
by the forces of President Diaz and those
of Gen Madero. Future combats between
the rebels and the forces of the Mexican
government must not be fought out so
close to the American line as to put in
jeopardy the lives and property of Ameri-
cans.
And some of the Democratic papers
are finding fault with the President for
thus protecting the lives and property of
Americans. Could partisan prejudice be
carried to a further extreme?
