Governor PIaisted,s Message.

From the Democratic standpoint or,
rather, from the standpoint of quite Il
galaxy of Democratic leaders, the add
dress of Governor Plaisted to the Leg
islature on Wednesday, was a pleas
ing document. 1t was consistent in
its adherence to the Democratic posi-
ton and was well delivered. We sub
init that the Governor made good
appearance ana "A good impression up
on the majority of his hearers.
But the Governor, in certain strong
particulars, is now on record as al
variance with his party. We cannot
| understand how the platform adopted
at City hail. Tuesday, can be made te
harmonic with the message of th,
Governor TO the Legislature OF
Wednesday.
The following is from the Demoera
| tie platform of 1912:
Any law, which rests upon the
broad principles of local self gov
eminent is sure to work out good
results among people like ours,
and we propose to use all possible
endeaVors to amend the constitu-
ton by adding the following para
graph to the prohibtory amend
ment:

A report from the Maine Agricul-
tural Experiment Station says:
about February 2S appeared a no
tice from this station concerning
parasite that hibernates in the adult
condition in the winter nests of the
brown-tail moth. Since that account
several correspondents have recognized
that parasite in winter nests and have
sent them in for verifcation. The sta
ton entomologists have continued n
series of observations on winter nests
collected in various parts of the State
ana have more encoura cement still TO

Weld in March a second and smaller
parasite which has survived the winter
in considerable numbers. This minute
insect. measuring only about LILO inch
in length, is apparently a species intro
duced from Europe about five years
ago and released in Massachusetts
shortly afterward. Unlike its larger
relative which waits until spring be-
fore laying her eggs the young of this
second introduced species feed on the

was fixed at three mills, and that for
1910 available in 1910 at five mills.
This five mill assessment fell to a
Democratic administration. To il the
Democratic Legislature added six
mills for 1871 available in 1922. and
four mills for 1912 available in 1879
And now the Democratic party
has the audacity to refer TO the
"heh tax rate" of five mills for
1910 which they "have lowered
to four mills for 1912. They say
nothing of the six mill rate which
they are using today.
We ask our readers Republicans.
Democrats, socialists, or any other po-
Iitical partly if they believe such Il
presentation of our States conditions
is fair or honest. Do you believe that

which any taxpayer or citizen may
verify.
Almost every voter in Maine knows
what the total appropriations of the

In addition to this direct tax on the people there
was an increase in other taxes such as railroad tax
tax on express companies, tax on automobiles, ETC.,
etc. amounting in all for the two years to than
$500000. Thus it is clearly shown that during
Governor Paisteds administration the total tax levy
was nearly 81 500 900 more than the tax levy under
Governor Fernads administration
The claims, accounts and demands against the
State accrued prior to and remaining unpaid January
1st, 1911, amounted to $500 $780, as is shown by
the deficit resolve passed by the Democratic Legsla
ture. Thus it may be seen that the Democratic adj
ministration increased taxation approximately
ST. $780, 000 when only $500, 1880 was required to
pay the temporary loan and all bills of the State
accrued and due up to the close of Governor Fer
maids administration, January lst, 1911.
