DEPOSITION to New Ballot Law.


The fnaninulators of Maine Demoe-
racy's heaviest newspaper guns seem
to have been greatly disturbed by the
Bangor convention. They say 1t re-
minds them of the Democratic con-
vention Mt Augusta because il was so
diiftHnt. The Argus. and the Bidde-
fofd Record and the Sentinel are dis
tinctis ratified over the demonstration
OF, Republican unity( good nature and
detsrlpination, as set forth in a gath
ering which occupied the better part
OF tw6 daysrin the ineubating, the
Matching. and the counting of the
chickens. The Argus had its ubiqui-l
tols rooster ready on the galley. for
use when it should be announced that
the r.: r.. cowboys had broken loose
in convention and had slaughtered
half thousand of loyal never give-up
Taft men.
Our friend. the enemy up the river

time, but destined to be the latter af-
ter September--keeps mumbling to it
self about the things that are, as in
happy contrast TO the things which
they had forecasted. 1t talks in its
sleep about Colonel Fred until one
wonders whether it refers to the
knight. of Imperial Kennebec or the
distinguished gentleman from Cum
berland. Ii spntters and jaws be-
cause Republicans refuse to be salts
fed with the product of the Demo-
cratic machine as exemplified in that
masterpiece of legislative perversty,
the new ballot law.

our neighbor that if there was little
Republican active opposition to the
measure it was perhaps because the
bill was ground through The legisla

Democratic dynamo, with all its i'm

Ministers Monday meetings all over the coun- try are now hearing the arguments But a greater reason for reducing the size is to secure more efficiency in legislation.

 THE MENTAL EFFORT.
 When the player is at the ton of his stroke. he must picture in his mind where he wants the ball to go. and as he swings the club at the ball. keeping his eyes where the club is to strike. and the head is steady as possible the mind must be kept fas- tened on just where he wants the ball to go.
 FOLLOW THROUGH.
 The follow through" is the most Important rart Of the swing. When the club comes in contact with the ball the drive should not be slack ened but the club should be swung through in the direction the ball is to take. as far as the arms vii per init, and when the arms have done their work the body should be turn cd as far as the muscles on the right side will allow. When thc arms do not carry through after the club comes in contact with the ball. the result is slice, and the ball goes in any direction but the right one.

THE LANGUAGE AND HABIT or
 GOLF

IL has been said that half Of golf is the vocabulary. and the other half a pair or knickerbockers and q Scotch accent. However that may be. it is undoubtedly becoming one or the most popular games in America. and there gre probably more devotpes Of the links in the United States and Canada than iE the British Islands where the game orinigated
 Even the nOnplayer must be con Ninced that the game has fascination when he Sees seiate business men of fifty arl more become 50 enthusiastic over golf as to forget to stop for din Ter. or play serenely along entirely un- conscious of a soaking rain.
 For the information of the nonplayer as well as for the novice the following Information concerning the game is given by Mat Melville. the professional at the Ingleside club.
 The stance is the position in which the player stands when he is about to strike the ball There are different stances for different strokes. but for the drive the open stance is used called open because tin, feet are placed | a comfortable distance apart with the right foot in advance so as to let the ] body and the shoulders move with free and easy action. that when the player ! is at the top of the swing there will ! be no muscle rigid. It is a curious fact :. that when the muscle on one side or l the body is stiffened. it causes a rigid ! ity of the corresponding muscle on the ] oposite side
 TIE GRIP.
 The names Of some oC the most | common grips are The Warden. the | 'N' the Braid. the Overlapping and ! the Palm. The Overlapping is used | by most of the best players in this ] country and Europe The forefinger i and thumb of the left hand override the little finger Of the right hand. | The object of this kind of grip is, when the club comes in contact with the ball, it is impossible for the wrist rot to snap. and as the wrist snaps it adds just that much more to the momentum of the ball
 THE SWING.
 After player has taken his stance and chosen his grip the next thing to be attained is the backward swing The club should be thrown not taken Lack carefully. and around as far over the shoulder as the arms will reach, and then the player is to throw his body as far around and away from the ball as the muscles on the left side will permit without becoming rigid. Thus we have the backward swing
 KEEP YOUR EYES ON THE BALL.
 All the time the stroke is being taken the player must keep his eyes on the side Of the ball that the club will strike. The reason for this is that if the eyes waver the head will move, which in turn moves the shoulders, and the body lifts with tho shoulders.
