The Bangor Commercial recently pub
lished an interview with Congressman
Gould in which it was stated that he was
going after the scalp of Hon. Forrest
Goodwin, the Republican candidate for
Congress in the third district, was going
to ask him some embarrassing questions,
etc. This moved "a Democratic Voter
in communication to the Portland Even
ing Express to say: cit is a 100 to / shot
that Mr.: Gould won't undertake to put
these questions verbally to Mr. Goodwin
between now and September 9th, so any
body could notice the incident or hear
it," and further:
conscientious Democrats realize, and
long ago came to the realization, that
Samuel W. Gould should never have been
nominated in 1910, should never have
been elected, should never have been
qualified, should never have been renomi-
mated and should not be reelected.
They have learned in the past year and
half that his candidacy this year is an
overwhelming calamity and handicap, and
day by day it is becoming more and more
certain that the collapse will involve not
only his candidacy in that district but will
make such inroads on the strength of his
associates that Governor Plaisted, Sena-
tor Gardner and all the other seekers for
victory will suffer to fatal degree.
When it does become known, as it will
become known before Sept. 9th, that the
Democratic State machine drove Sheriff
John A. Mooers out of the Democratic
party in Somerset county and in the
same breath endorsed Representative
Samuel W. Gould, the utter insincerity
OF the entire outfit, the absolute disre-
gard of principles and ordinary fitness of
political affairs, will appeal with striking
trict and prove conta gious all over the
State.

In the west the trolleys have done
much toward building up the country.
They carry freight as well as passengers,
have given remote farms easy access to
good markets and the farmers and their
families opportunities to visit the larger
towns and the cities and enjoy the ad-
vantages thus opened to them. In some
cases they have paralleled the steam
roads, but as whole the latter have
been benefited. The New Haven rail-
road went to the Massachusetts legisla-
ture for permission to build and operate
electric cars through section of the
State Western Massachusetts,
seems not likely to be supplied with
such facilities in any other way. The
communities that want the roads do not
object to the New Haven ownership.
The legislature passed the bill, but it
was vetoed by Gov. Foss-for political
reasons, no doubt. The Boston Herald
points out that the opposition to plans of
the New Haven railroad brings the State
policy into an extraordinary contradic-
ton of aims. 1t says: Massachusetts
is naturally eager for the development
of her transportation facilities. Were
the New Haven to propose to penetrate
these western counties with series of
branch lines and spur tracks its offer

line of progress and prosperity" Then
the State is bringing pressure to bear on
its steam railroad lines for their electri-
fication, and the New Haven would cleo
trify their branch lines while building
them, and thus hasten the day when the
locomotive will be banished from the en-
tire commonwealth. "Why then" asks
the Herald, SHOULD the State object to

that woman suffrage will be favored and
that south Of Mason and Dixon's line it
will be white mans party, with the
negro eliminated. Roosevelt's "con-
