tional and promises to change our
present system to tariff for revenue
only. which IS England's free trade
method of raising revenue from
imports.
Mr.. Parsons is one of the ablest and
most convincing speakers on the
stump and went over the claims of the
present State administration in a
clear presentation of the case that
showed up the tiimsiness of the pre-
text of wonders worked in economies
OF State finances. On national issues
he pointed out the Importance to
Maine of A protective tariff. situated as
We are upon the Canadian border.
The Canadian reciprocity act as ii
stands today ready for the Dominion
parliament TO accept at any time WAS
declared to be a menace to every in
dustry in this state and it's going into
effect would mean immediate and un-
told loss to every farmer, fisherman
and lumberman in Maine, and these
include all our chief industries. Mr..
Parsons emphasized the importance of
sending congressman from this State
who are protectionists and opposed to
this reciprocity measure. Representa-
tive Guernsey has by vote and in de-
bate done what he could to protect his
State from the injury such a reei-
procity agreement would bring upon
it, The Legislature is to elect a
United States Senator. If the Legis-
lature is Republican that senator will
vote for a protective tariff and against
reciprocity; if the Legislature is Dem
ocratic the senator elected viii go
with his party in favor of free trade
and for the reciprocity measure. If
you are in favor of a protective tariff
and against reciprocity, vote for Re
publican candidates for senators and
representatives to the Legislature.
Go home and think this matter
over said the speaker. and when
you go to the polls on Monday, Sept.
9Th, vote according TO your belief as
to which is best for state and ma
tion, protection or free trade"

More Praise for Maine Troops.

In the Army and Navy Journal oi
the date of Aug. 81, appeared an ar
ticle written by someone who wit
messed the recent maneuvers held in
Connecticut, in which the Second Reg
iment. N. G. 5. NJ, took part. giving
the infantry brigade, of which the
Maine Guardsmen We're a part, much
praise. The closing paragraphs have
this to say about the brigade:
From the very first day in camp
until the close of the maneuver period
there was never an organization be-
hind time in making movement ,or
complying with an order; there was
an almost total absence of struggling
that was exceedingly gratifying; the
number of sick was so small ais to be
almost negligible; sanitary rules were
strictly complied with tactical and
combat work was performed with a
thoroughness that left little to be de-
sired; organizations. Notwithstanding
the fact that field transportation was
not up to the standard, We're able to
keep themselves supplied at all times;
and, all in ALL the record made by
this command is one of which any
other might Well be proud.
1T is evident that those who COM
posed the Provisional Infantry Bri-
gade (Red) belong to that class of
National Guardsmen who have been
giving serious thought to the busi-
ness of soldering, and if conditions
should arise which would neeessitate
their being called to the 'colors we
may expect them to give a good ac-
count of themselves

Vote "No."
fFarmineton Chroniele, ,

:
The people are to vote on a referen-
dunn next Monday. The special ses-
sion of the legislature passed a bill
requiring all town clerks to forward
by express to Augusta all ballots
thrown at any State or national cleo
tion within twentyfour hours after
the polls close. This means that the
State, rather than the towns, would
be the custodians of the ballots. All
recounts would have to be made at
Augusta. This would have advantages
and disadvantages. Probably the vot-
ers will prefer to retain locally the
right and convenience of a recount.

WHEN TO REMOVE hat.

What osss Etiqvstts Require Of Man
In Elevator In Which Women Ridsf
II the conduct Of the male person
who fails to remove his hat when rid
ing In an elevator In company with
women compatible with the appropriate
behavior of . real gentleman, or is it
an act Of such discourtesy as betokens
and belts the bOor?
OF course the answer is that the
propriety or improperly of the con-
duct in question depends upon the ma
ture of the relation into which the
male person Is temporarily brought to-
ward his fellow passengers. II the re-
Iation involves any feeling of a friend
ly or social kind. If it communicates
any suggestion of privacy. the well
bred man will instinctively bare his
head.
For this reason he will do so In the
elevator of an apartment house or 4
hotel. and by the same token he will
not do so in the elevator of an Offic.
building or railway station. 1t may
be thought that the distinction is a
fine one. but it is clearly based on
reason and on right. Although in IL
certain sense and to Il certain extent
a hotel is public place. inasmuch as
any one may enter it. 1t is home to
those who for the time being, or Il
may be permanently. are living there.
and the persons who use its elevators
are not, strictly speaking. strangers to
each other.
But why should he remove his hat in
the elevator of an office building or
railway station. where the publicity Is
as absolute as the publicity OF the
street? There is no good reason.
Some people want to be SO polite that
they overdo It. and the excess Of civil
ity born of affectadon is almost az
Objectionable as the rudeness which

for the rights and feelings of others
