A PERSONAL NOTE FROM COL.
BOOTHBY..


Col. F. E. Boothby of Portland was at his old
home in Waterville last week for day or two,
and in personal note says that he brought
with him The Journal of Feb. LIST and found
this issue as full of interest as proceeding
ones" Col. Boothby is well known to the
newspaper fraternity of Maine through his
long connection with the Maine Central, and
his interest in them had led him to read the re-
port of the recent annual meeting of the
nj ane Press Association, in which connection
he says: "You, I am sure, could not help but
notice how Portland is forging ahead in every
conceivable way, for which every citizen of
the State ought to be as proud as the citizens of
Portland themselves" We are proud of Port
land, and glad to herald her progress and pros
perity, but unfortunately at the time of the
press meeting the weather did not permit of
much sightseeing, Col. Boothby says further:
What l started in, however, to say was how
much l enjoyed Capt. Johnson's article on New
Orleans, especially that part relating to Capt.
Thomas j. Woodward, man very well know
and can vouch for the truth of every state
ment made. Indeed, Capt. Johnson hasn't
said half enough about this honorable, brave
and courteous man, who is respected by all
WHO ever knew him. The next time you are in
Portland I'll show you his picture as King of
the Mardi Gras in the State of Maine room at
the Falmouth Hotel. Once at one of our Old
Home Week receptions in Portland Capt.
Woodward was there and was easily the most
noticeable man present, notwithstanding the
fact that there were officers from the six OF
eight war ships in the harbor. Mr.. Andrew J,
Blakely, who previous to his death was pro-
prietor of the St. Charles Hotel in New Or
leans,wa also friend of mine and in my visits
to him used to meet Gait. Woodward and re-
new my acquaintance with him and his de-
lightful family whom he always brought with
him on his visits to Maine.

she dares to trust to represent her in
Congress? Mr.. Perkins, her senior SEN
ator, she gets from Kennebunkport,
Me-; Senator Flint is a native of North
Reading, Mass, and seven of her repre-
sentatives in Congress were born out
side her borders; and the only reason l
can see why they elected native in the
third district was that both parties nomi-

the only way they could get native to
represent them. But Maine man heads
the list, as they do most everywhere
where important work is to be done!
AS regards criminals there are 70 in
Maine for each 100, 900 inhabitants, while
there are 21O in California for each 1OO,-
600 inhabitants, or three times as many

The Hoop Pole Industry.

E. c. Pike & Co., Searsport, who man
ufacture the barrels and cooperage stock
for the big fertilizer plants operating at
that port, have recently installed ma
chine to cut, bend and rivet steel barrel
hoops, all ready to put on. 1t is said
that the fertilizer people have placed a
ban on the ordinary birch hoops for their
barrels, and in the future will use only
hoops of ash or iron. On the other hand
it is claimed that the innovation in Sears
port cooperage is due to the growing
scarcity of timber and the consequent de-
cline of the Waldo county hoop pole in
dustry- Industrial Journal.

will, in the opinion of the writer, lead to
war, which may result disastrously
for us-a war in behalf of people who
hate us and with whom we have no affili-
alton and but little trade. 1t is argued
that we need Germany as an ally; that
this country, Great Britain and Germany
should get together; that there lis only
one thing left which can save Anglo-Sax-
ondom, and that is to establish Pan-Teu-
tonism." 1--WE shall have our hands
full between the Equator and the Rio
Grande. Perhaps we shall need the
prestige of Germany in order to KEEP
our own as far as the Equator. And. all
denials to the contrary, Japan is hobnob-
ling with Mexico" "The white
races must stand together or 60 to the
WALL" The newspapers have also called
attention to the yellow peril that
menaces us. In a recent issue the Bos-
ton Globe says:
Now that the State Department once
more has prevented Japanese interests
from getting a large tract of land in
Lower California it is more and more
apparent that we must be vigilant or SUBJ
jects of the Mikado will succeed in get
ting a foothold somewhere on the Pa
cific Coast. Once before an effort was
made to get control of Magdalena Bay,
which has a desirable harbor, but the
plan was blocked.
Japan wants land on the coast obvious
ly for military purposes, and the Monroe
Doctrine is opposed to any such plan.
With the completion Of the Panama
Canal the strategic value of having a
Japanese base on this continent will be
greatly enhanced. No foreign power
should be permitted thus to menace our
safety, and the policy of the State De-
partment undoubtedly meets with general
approval.
There are other articles of timely in
terest and real value in the January At
lantic, and the letter to the editor from
Mrs. Fannie Hardy Eckstorm of Brewer,
in which she takes issue with the author
of 1.-THE Vanishing Lady" in the Feb
ruary Atlantic, will be enjoyed by
many. Both writer's are right from
their different standpoints. We cannot
commend the recent fiction in the Allan.
tic, which is wide departure from the
writings of Howells, Sarah Orne Jewett,
Charles Egbert Craddock, Kate Douglass
Wiggin, and others, so much enjoyed in
the past by the lovers of clean literature,
and to whom the "best sellers" of today
are distasteful.

VIM. T. Cobb of Rockland has sacrificed
a laudable personal ambition for the
