Miss Bishop
Causes Arrest
Of Two Tramps

Miss Marguerite A. Bishop, daugh-
ter of Gen. and Mrs. Henry, A. Bish-
op Of 179 Washington avenue, caused
the arrest Saturday night of two men
who were acting suspiciously in front
of the Bishop residence. Miss Bishop
noticed the men walking up and down
in front of the house and stopping
frequently as if to take observations.
She finally became frightened and
determined to seek police aid. Special
Policeman Reilly, who is hired by
wealthy Golden Hill residents to pa
troll that section, came along at an
opportune time and Miss Bishop in
formed him about the men. The Of
ficer took the providers to police head
quarters where they denied any in
tention of wrongdoing. They said
they were out taking walk. Owing
to the fact that no charge was made
against the men, the police did not
take their names.
Sunday morning Miss Bishop saw
the men walk loiteringly in front Of
the house. She sent a maid to ask
them what they wanted. Replying
that they didn't want anything the
men walked away.

Washington, April 1O-"It might be
called the miscellaneous scateration
policy" said Late Young, Republican
Iawo), in a speech in the Senate, to-
day, regarding the tendency in the
last quarter of century to scatter
and diversity everything pertaining
to government"
"The greatest examples of miscel-
laneous distribution of powers" he
said, ARE found in town and city
government"
Young spoke of the needlessness of
city councils and multiplied boards
and offered as: the model system, the
Des Moines scheme of putting all the
powers of. the city, in the hands of
a commission of five men. He ex-
planned in detail the Des Moines sys-
tenn whereby the five commissioners
may be recalled or the entire city
government revolutionized at single
election.
"Cut out the city council,'~ he said.
Ninety percent of all municipal
functions are active and yet every
municipal government has been Or
ganized on the supposition that at
least one-half of the municipal func-
lions were executive"

A Defence of the Catholic Church.
portland Evening Express.)


A Maine contemporary is giving
several columns each day to prove
that the great Roman Catholic church
is in favor of the liquor traffic To
a large majority of the adherents TO
this faith the effort is not palatable.
Many noble and broad-minded church
men are enrolled among the strong
workers for temperance and no names
are more worthy of the reverence OF
all men than Father Matthews, Arch
bishop Ireland. Father Nugent and a
score of other priests and prelates
who have taken high places among the
temperance workers of the world. IN
every state where the battle against
the bottle has been waged are found
the representatives of the CAholic
church. standing for good citizenship
and social morality.
Among the laity of the church there
are to be found some of the most elo-
duent and ablest proponents for pro-
hibition 1t is a gratuitous reflection
upon the church to convey the impress
sion that 1t is arrayed with the forces
of the age-Iong and race wide -iniquity

grounds of sound policy and economy,

A Burning Issue in Maine.

tPresque Isle star Herald)
VIII or will not Maine people main
tam the Status quo as regards Con
stltutional Prohibition? This is from
day To day becoming an increasingly
1--we issue. heretofore, the friends Of
constitutional enforcement have been
more active at least in the open. but
occasional scraps of anti prohibition.
literature, ana reports of the forma-
tien of clubs in that interest, show
that the other side is not asleep.
II would hardly seem as if a square
issue could be Joined and fought out
in Maine between license and consti-
tutitional prohibition with any hope
of license winning. 1t will, therefore
on the part of those opposed to prohi-
bition. and at heart possibly in favor
of license. take the form of advocacy
of local option.
Local option has the support of
many good temperance people as the
best method of regulating the liquor
traffic 1t does not, however. appeal
to Maine temperance workers, who,
for the most part. believe state wide
enforcement, with all its admitted
Weaknesses, to be the best means of
restraining the traffic.
There are very few Maine people
who would wish to see the State
turned over to license AS regards
the comparative merits of local OPP
ton and the system we have now,
the Judgment of minded men who
have seen and studied results under
both local option and prohibition is
certainly entitled to weight, on this
point eur tewnsman. Hon, A. +. lrv-
ing. is emphatic in his opinion that
state wide enforcement is the better
systemT Mr.. irving has travelled much
over our own country. and personal
interest has led him to observe close
ly the workings, of both methods Of
regulation.
We have no doubt the view held by
Mr. Irving is the prevalent one in
Maine, and that unless the voters take
too much for granted. the vote will
be very emphatically to conform the
present status of Constitutional Pro
hibition.
