Associated Press Dispatch.
Portland, Me-, Aug 26.--GoTer-
nor Thomas r. Marshall of Indiana
opened his campaign in Maine to.
night with a speech devoted in
greater part to the tariff. In sum
ming up his conclusions the speaker
asked:
"Why must the consumer always
tbe the goat? | believe in vested
rights but do not believe in vested
/ wrongs. | do not particularly CEN
sure the manufacturers for getting
all they can but | contend that the
proof of the iniquity is so plain tha5
the blame is the peoples"
In part Gov. Marshall said:
ut is idle for some men to make
declarations. Broken promises are
oftimes more eloquent than their
words,
'Who Is going to believe the regu-
lar Republican organization when
| II declares that it is opposed to spec
ial privilege? Who takes ii seri-
ously when it points with pride ID
Its enactments to curtail monopoly?
Flays Roosevelt,
Does any one doubt that for
seven and one half years the leader
Of the progressive party was in pow
er in this country? Can any ona
put his finger upon a single effort
made by him to curb the monopo-
listic tendency which was then
rampant? Does any one believe that
his new platform, which stands
both for socialism and for a system
Of licensing and curbing is anything
more than bid for votes?
ITO stand pat or progressive,
every man opposed to special priv
ilege may say as Nathan said unto
David: Thou art the man If there
are laws to eliminate special priv
|ilege the Republicans did not en-
force them; if there are no effective
laws, they failed to enact effective
ones; if conditions are such as to
prevent proper control, they be-
came SO under their responsibility.
Il do not address myself to the
man who believes that honesty is
the best policy. | fear that he MAJ
find out some time that dishonesty
pays and straightway forget his pol
icy. Nor do l care to talk to the man
who is satisfied with the statement
that we are the richest people in
the world If he means to say there
are more rich men in America than
in any other country he Ia correct :;
but If he implies that the natural
and acquired wealth of America has
been fairly and honestly distributed
among the people he is altogether
wrong. sN

MONTGOMERY FOR RAILROAD
COMMISSIONER.

The report comes from Atlanta that
George F. Montgomery, of Marietta
former rate expert of the Railroad
Commission, may announce for the
vacancy that will be created by the
retirement of Judge Hillyer, who has
announced that he will not be can
didate for reelection.
This is good news. Mr.. Montgom-
cry may not be a political hand shak-
er, he may not be a ell
met type of office hunter, such as the
state abounds in, but there is no ques-
ton that he is probably the most COM
petent man in the state for a position
with the Commission has well equipped
him for the work what would fall to
him as one of the members of the
board. He has had the technical
training in rate work that will enable
him to quickly go at the root of all
rate questions presented for the con-
sideration of the commission. His
mind has been trained to take hold of
such intricate questions, to study them
out thoroughly, and to reach definite
and well founded conclusions. Such
a man would be an element of real
strength in the Commission.
1t is not often that such a man OF
fers for a position on the Commission.
Too often the men running for the Of
fee are running more on their popu-
larity, or their desire for a job, than
on their capacity for the work to be
entrusted to them. The people of GeOr-
gia should show their appreciation of
the difference between this class and
Mr.. Montgomery by overwhelmingly
electing him if he offers. This is one
instance where the mere politician
should be set aside for the man who
knows the business and who is prepar-
ed by long training to give the people
the service they are entitled to. There
has probably been a good deal of dead
wood on the Commission in the pas,
but that is no reason there should be
any on it in the future, 1t is too i'm
portant a feature of the state govern
ment to have its members otherwise
than men who are thoroughly quail
flied and the opportunity to add such a
man to the commission should not be
allowed to go unnoticed

THE VALUE OF ADVERTISING
Case of the Trained Athlete and the
Poor Foreigner That illustrates
Power of Publicity.

Provided an athlete, trained to the
minute, fitted out with the best money
can buy in the shape of specially pre-
pared shoes, walking sticks, loose-ft-
ting and comfortable clothing and re-
freshments, walks across the cOntin-
ent in anything like reasonable time,
he is given wide publicity, is. wined
and dined and is proclaimed being
OF great endurance, determination
and self-will, a think-nothing-o f-suffer-
ing. climb-over-a-barrier, set-all-obsta-
cles-aside sort of person.
But a man in need of work and de-
termined to get it, probably not in
the best of physical condition, short
OF clothes and without knowledge as
to where he is to get his next meal
can walk 5000 miles, can undergo all
sorts of hardships and self-denials,
and he would not even be given cred
it for having done anything out OF the
ordinary.
Aside from other features of the
comparison, it all goes to show what
advertising will do in any branch Of
human existence or endeavor.
When the athlete starts out on his
long tramp he is advertised far and
wide and the eyes of the country are
directed toward him. If he fails to
complete his journey he is soon for
gotten, but if he succeeds, he is a he
TO.
But in the case OF the other man,
he is not advertised and nothing is
heard of him from one end of the
journey to the other, so it does not
matter whether he fails or succeeds
And the same condition applies in
other walks of life The man who is
wide awake, who directs attention to
himself by advertising, by not only
blowing his own horn but having 9TH
ers blow loud blasts on it occasion
ally is more certain than Is the man
who starts out without a blare of
trumpets or without an attempt to at
tract and keep the attention of the
public.
Recently a New York fireman set
out from the Atlantic coast city to
walk to this coast. He was trained
athlete and made the trip in good
time and got a whole lot of notoriety
and considerable money out of the
trip. He was advertised far and near.
And recently a tailor, whose home
was in Poland, received word that
employment awaited him at the hands
OF an old friend in Redwood CITY. Cal.
The tailor left Poland, without knowl-
edge as to the length or breadth of
the United States and arrived in New
York city four months ago. When
told that he had yet to cross the con-
tinent, he pluckily set out to walk the
distance, being without funds to pay
his fare.
He made the trip from New York
city to Oakland in three months and
two weeks, doing odd jobs en- route
to pay his expenses.
Upon reaching Redwood City he
was at once employed.
The accomplishment of the needy
tailor, comments the Oakland, Cal,
Enquirer, is more worthy of notice
than Is that of the athletic fireman.
But the tailor's long tramp was not
advertised
For that reason he has failed to at
tract much attention and but little ap-
plause for his exhibition of endur-
ance and determination.

AS the Macon Telegraph says, the
conservative, sensible men are in the
majority when they get together and
act in concert. The radicalism of the
Republican party has worn upon the
patience of the people. A conserva
tive Democrat can win this year. II
will be a mistake to try to outradical
the radicals The only trouble is, the
extreme radicals make so much noise
they succeed in convincing the con
servatives that they are really a rous-
ing majority instead of merely a tru-
multuious minority.

NO DESIRE ON PART OF ROAD TO
DISCRIMINATE AGAINST CITY,
SAYS GEN'L MAN'R LAMB.
WANTS AN UNDERSTANDING
W. H. Leahy, c. p. A. of the A., 3.
6 A., Will Confer With Board of
Trade in the Hope that an Amicable
Agreement Can Be Reached.

}. b. c. Bitch, general agent of the
A., b. x A. was in receipt OF a tele-
gram from General Manager f. I.
lamb yesterday relative to he dis
continuance of local train service.
The wire stated that he thought his
petition relating to the train service
vas not understood by the people of
Brunswick and that he had no .inten-
ton or desire to discriminate against
the city and while he had petitioned
to discontinue local trains the service
of the through trains would be so ar
ranged that the people Of Brunswick
would not be inconvenienced; that
while the people here were satisfied
with two trains daily on other lines
to insist on the A., b. 4 A. operating
six trains at a loss was discrimina-
tion on the part OF the city He also
stated that he had arranged for w.
II. Leahy general passenger agent of
the road, to be here Monday for
meeting with the board of trade in
the hope that some agreement salts
factory to all parties concerned could
be reached.
The activity Of the board of trade
and the city council when 1t became
known that the A., b. & A. had filed
a petition with the state railroad
commission, as well as the publicity
given the matter through the news
and editorial columns OF The News,
has all gone to show how deeply the
business interests of the city feel
about the matter
As The News has already stated,
while it has no desire to see the A.,
3. & A. operate trains at loss it
feels that to discontinue all local
trains at one time would be going 2
little too far
However, as the A., b. e A. is will
ing to arbitrate the matter the busi-
ness interests of the city can do no
less than meet them on a fair foot
ing.
