A Voice from Blanket Lane.

To THE EDITOR OF The JOURNAL:
The Democratic voters on R. F. D. 8,
Stockton Springs, from Mt. Heagan to
Standpoint, all wear sour face because
of the Way they have been treated by
Congressman Samuel w. Gould. Blanket
Lane is l-2 miles from Standpoint
where the people get six mails day,
while we at Blanket Lane get only one
mail a day and that only by an effort.
Our mail from October up to July does
not connect with the train at Stockton
Springs so that it remains in the latter
office II hours. When we mail letter
Saturday it remains in the post office at
Stockton 43 hours, when it should be on
the road. We have asked, prayed and
petitioned to have our mail regulated.
One of Prospects leading Democrats
sent petition to Representative Samuel
W. Gould in Congress, with 1874 names,
asking to have our mail route changed
back to Bucksport. Early last spring
A. F. Quimby drove over the route and
notified the people that our mail route
had been changed back to Bucksport
AND that the rural carrier had been noti-
fed to take his mail from Bucksport
af ter the first of May. Everybody on
the route was satisfied and was waiting
for our mail to come from the Bucksport
post office. But while we were waiting
few residents of Stockton Springs
who claim to be Democrats sent Sam
Gould a remonstrance, telling him he
must stop the change of the R. F. D,
route; that it must be kept at Stockton,
as it would be a great damage to the
town if the change was made by taking
large amount out of the village. The
people of Blanket Lane have tried 10
fl nd ore person on the route who signed
the remonstrance and have failed to do
SO. Capt. A. A. CHM wrote the Hon.
S. W. Gould asking him if he would
kindly send him a copy of the remon-
STRANGE, but did not receive a satisfac-
tory reply. One of Blanket Lanes old
standard Democrats also wrote Mr..
Gould and his letter was ignored. Sam
Gould cannot get that mans vote at any
price, and lot more will go with him.
We are sure that the Stockton parties
misrepresented the case to Gould, but
that is no excuse for his not answering
our letters.
Now we will say in conclusion that if
two or three weak-backed Democrats
could make the Hon. Sam w. Gould turn
down 1874 good citizens, it shows that
there is a cat in the meal. Twenty
years ago we could send letter to Bel
fast, mail it at 10 a. m. and at p. m.
we could get an answer. Now when the
people on Route write to Belfast it
takes four days to get an answer.

BOX PACKING DEMONSTRATIONS.

The Department of Agriculture at
Augusta is planning to give limited
number of box packing demonstrations
this Fall and will be pleased to hear
from growers who desire such NEE ting
in their orchard. The Department will
furnish press, packing table, boxes and
paper, SO that no expense will be incur
red by the grower other than trans
portation from the nearest railroad
station. The increased number of Or
chardists who are spraying and giving
good care to their trees must necessarily
increase the amount of fruit fit for box
pack and it seems important at this time
to demonstrate the different packs and
manner of packing so that better work
along this line may be accomplished.
Individuals or Oranges that are interest
ed will receive prompt attention by
writing the Department at the earliest
opportunity. X. Gardner, State
Horticulturist.
