A Democrat ON His Party.
(Kennebec Journal.)

henneoec JonraAt.y
Here is the sentiment, voiced this week,
by one OF the most prominent democrats
in Kennebec county 1--WE would not con-
fuse his ssprominence' with the ''noto-
riety'' OF certain others):
sFor years we criticized republican ad-
ministrations because they failed TO enforce
the law. We demanded candidates who
would promise TO do better. We received the
promises in the campaign Of 1910; but no re-
publican administration in recent years has
so openly dehed moral sentiment and so
brazenly dealt with interests ready TO pur-
chase orr public welfare. All the gain which
mad been made in the last ten years against
liauor and social evils has been lost The
number Of dealers who pay q. s. revenue tax
20 handle intoxieants has been doubled. and
dives and bootleggers have quadrupled.
s.There can be no question that Governor
Piaisted and his close associates who are in

Ellsworth Roads.

The city OF Ellsworth Is fortunate
this year in having fund for use on
its roads much larger than in recent
past years, and it is also fortunate in
having the expenditure of this in
creased fund under the direction OF a
mayor, committee on streets and a
street commissioner who are working
harmoniously and intelligently.
The board of aldermen appropriated
$1,000 for highways, $3.50 for State
road work, and $4,000 for permanent
highway; the appropriation for State
road brings from the State s562, and
besides these sums q, 900 has been al
lotted to Ellsworth by the State from
the automobile fund.
Thus the total of %, ,312 is available
for road work during the current
year, and does not include $500 for
bridges, $500 for sidewalks, or $1,000
for permanent sidewalk.
The necessity for better roads is be-
ng generally recognized, and as time
goes on larger appropriations will
meet with general approval. The
system of patching sidewalks and re-
pairing instead of permanently build
ing roads is fast falling into disfavor.
Fear of first cost has been the bug
bear which has kept US behind the
times; it is coming to be recognized
that the cost OF maintaining perma-
nent road is less expensive than an
nual repairing. The cost of maca-
damizing Main street fifteen years
ago plus the cost of keeping it in re-
pair since is actually less than what it
cost during the preceding fifteen years
just to keep it in repair under the
old system. What is true of Main
street Is also true OF all other streets
which have been properly built, and
will be true OF others which we hope
to see built in the near future.
Good roads are one of towns best
assets and advertisements.

THE GAS WELL.
A Great Flow Developed at the Fair
Grounds from a Boring for Salt
Water.

The citizens Of Shreveport who
stand for progress and development
have been agreeably surprised on
two results, recorded during the
week, which will have the greatest
bearing on the future growth Of this
city.
The first was the decision of the
Supreme Court of the United States
whose decree vests title to II 900
acres of Gross Lake land to the
State, which by legal enactment has
transferred its right of possession
to the city of Shreveport.
In time this tract known as Gross
Lake will become a source of water
for the city of Shreveport who will
not be dependent OH the water from
Fair Grounds. Instead of salt water,
if filtered and ''doctored' can not
be made better than it is.
This decree of the Supreme Court
of the United States will strengthen
the incentive to the municipal own
ership of the water supply for all
the people at the lowest possible
rates.
The second is the gas we'll at the
Red river with all its alkaIieS which
gas is the result of the boring.
This query may be ventured: How
many of the citizens Of Shreveport
appreciate fully the significance of
the flow of gas.
1t has been talked on the street
that the flow of gas was only tenn
porary, that the gas is located in a
'pOcket' of limited supply, but men
who have bored gas and oil wells
are firm in their conviction that this
we'll when developed will supply
flow of gas sufficient to meet every
commercial purpose of Shreveport
for fifteen or twenty years to come.
When the flow of gas was made
public there were crowds of people
who gathered at the Fair Grounds
but there was only visible the der
rick and now and then a squirt of
vapor (gas) which roared and spurt-
ed at a lively rate and heard with
ing a quarter of mile of the we'll.
1t was intended to cap the we'll to-
day at noon but an unavoidable de-
lay led to the closing in the after
noon.
During the day and night two Of
ficers were kept on watch guarding
the we'll as a precaution from fire
which could be started by the light
ing Of a match.

FOSTERS BULLETIN
OF STORMS TO CROSS
THE CONTINENT
CONDITIONS REVERSED
A Deficiency i'm Rainfall Over Those
Sections Where the Excessive
Rains Have Fallen Expected.

copyrighted 1912 by w. I. Foster}
Washington, d. c., May t8.-Last
bulletin gave forecasts of disturb
ance to cross continent May i8 to
y and q to 25, warm wave Nav II
to Il and 20 to "a, cool waves May
20 to "a and % to 27. Temperatures
OF thes two disturbances will aver
age lower than usual and therefore
the crop weather will not be of the
best, not as good as the first week
OF May. Early May rainfall as pre-
dlcted for the dry parts of Kansas
and Nebraska, where wheat needed
moisture, came in nicely during the
week centering on May 5.
Next disturbance will reach paci-
fic coast about May 25, cross Pacific
slope by close of 26, great central
valleys q to %, eastern sections 80,
Warm wave will cross Pacific slope
about May 25, great central valleys
p, eastern sections %, Cool wave
will cross Pacific slope about May
2o, great central valleys 20, eastern
sections June 1.
Preceding this disturbance the
average temperatures will be unus-
ually law but the disturbance des-
crlbed will start the temperatures
upward and carry them to much
higher levels, bringing much better
crop weather. 1t will also bring
rains in about one-fourth of the
sections east of the Rockies. Indi-
cations are favorable to heavy rains
near the Gulf coast west of Florida.
We are now near . great change
in crop weather. We have had the
floods, the extreme cold, the lorna
does and other dangerous storms.
Weather events are somewhat sim
liar to the pendulum and one ex-
treme usually follows another of the
opposite character. We can not reas-
onably expect the heavy downpours
OF rain to continue, and every one
who has any knowledge of the
weather by experience or tradition
will expect the crop weather to be
deficient in rainfall over those sec
tions where the excessive rains have
fallen.
My calculations made from the
weather records covering from 60 ID
100 years indicate that we are conf
ing to bad crop weather for those
sections that have recently been too
wet. The program will be nearly re-
Eersed. The dry sections will get too
much rain and the wet sections not
sufficient rains for best results in
the growing crops.
Farmers and planters and truck
gardeners can profit by carefully
noting these matters. They can con-
duct the cultivating for dry weather
where it has been too wet, and for
wet weather where it has been too
dry.

The Governors Inauauration.

At noon tomorrow Monday, May
20, Judge L. E. Hall and Senator T.
c. Barret will be inaugurated as
Governor and Lieutenant Governor
of the State of Louisiana.
AS programmed the ceremonies
will be simple in contrast to the
demonstrations of the past.
This simplicity has been suggest
ed by and is desired by Judge Hall.
In this Jeffersonian simplicity he
has won the admiration of the peo-
pie.
Following the Inauguration will
come the message, in which will be
presented wholesome suggestions
and recommendations to the Gen
eral Assembly.
There is surety in the fact that
Governor Hall will not tolerate leg
islation which may prove to be in
imical to the best interests and the
welfare of the State.
It is also in reason to say that
any legislation which may operate
in the revival of discordant local is
sues which may impede the pro-
gressive harmony in the direction
of reform will not be viewed favor
ably.
The people expect fulfillment of
the pledges of the Good Government
League and will not be disappointed.
We tender our best wishes to the
Goyernor-elect, L. E. Hall, and wish
him and his administration the full
est success.
