become unfastened. The mare ran half mile,

Mr.. Charles Frank Fogg, our enterprising
real estate dealer, is starting new and some
what novel advertising racket. The question
now is where shall our new school house be
placed when we get able to build one? We
want convenient, healthy location, with
ample play grounds surrounding the building.
And such places are getting scarce in the hub
of the village. Mr.. Fogg, however, thinks he
has solved the problem and feels sure he can
confer lasting obligations upon the present
, citizens of the place and greatly increase
the comfort and happiness of the future pupils
of the town. Doubtless he also sees chance
to earn few sheckles in a real estate deal.
So he invited everybody interested to meet on
May LIST at the said lot just back of the Charles
E. Bowen place, where the coveted lot is stu
ated, to have an old fashioned May party.
AS one of the incidentals to attract attention,
Mr.. Fogg offered three prizes 50. 81. and 81
first second and third, to the women who guess
the nearest to his weight. AS we cannot get
this in The Journal until the day after it has
happened there will be sequel to this
story.

years. In closing he asked the support
of the business men for the proposed en-
actment of a National law that will eff
feet the institution of the system and
the reform proposed by the commission.
He said that nothing could be done with
it at this session of the Congress, though,
as there was President of one political
party, House of another and Senate
of several parties 1t is hoped to get
the measure through some time, how

The sum of $110 is certainly not high

The Journal has frequently been GEN.
sured by E. F. Hanson for printing let
tiers from Belfast people residing or
temporarily sojourning in other sections
of the country, he claiming that we were
booming the south and west at the ex-
pense of Maine and particularly of Wal
do county. We are inclined to think,
however, that this censure was prompt
ed in part by envy, as he sought at one
time to secure letters from Florida from
one of The Journals contributors. Be
that as it may, he is now said to be en-
gagged in booming a California land COM
pany, whose object is to sell land to
eastern people-just as he boored Penn

hundred gathered at the invitation of
the National Citizens League of New
- England to listen to interesting and in
structive addresses on Monetary Reform
by Congressman John w. Weeks of
Massachusetts and Prof. O. M. W.
Sprague of Harvard University Promi-
nent representatives of the banking,
business and agricultural interests of
this State were present. Phillip F.

ducing the subject of the evening spoke
of the vital Importance to the welfare of
our whole nation of the reform of our
present banking and currency system.
In "A States of the Union organizations
have been formed for the purpose of
studying the question and securing some
remedy for the present antiquated sys-
TEN. These organizations, he said, are
banded together in one great national
league, 1.-The National Citizens League, -
with members from all our agricultural.
manufacturing and mercantile interests,
representing all sections of the country
and all political parties. And this great
body of citizens is demanding reorgani-
cation of our banking system that will
insure US against money panics, provide
more equitable interest rates, promote
agricultural, industrial and commercial
prosperity, and place this country on
par with the great commercial nations
: of Europe in international finance. That
certainly is something worth striving
FOR and which should enlist the coopera-

Il ned and explained the plan proposed by
the National Monetary Commission for
the establishment of central system
which will be practically a corpora
ton, subsidized by the National Govern
ment and regulated and restricted to
certain methods by law. He explained
at length the proposed method for the
grouping of local banks, whereby there
must be at least ten banks with CAPT.

directors for the districts. 1t is proposed
to have two districts in New England.
The National organization is to be made
up from the various district organiza-
