WatervilIe,s Contribution.

Attorney General Mayor Pattangall
of Waterville, calls the attention OF
that city to the fact that the increase
in State tax amounted to $4,000 in the
last municipal year, thus reducing the
available funds for local use. That, in
other words, is Waterville's eontribu-
tion-$S000-to the wonderful things
which State Auditor Stevens is boast
ing of, every month. IF you wonder
where these monetary marveis get the
money to pay bills with, ask our friend
Lamont if your tax had ANYTHING To
do with it.
The attorney general of Maine, the
political dictator and Democratic pol
icy Trainer, says Waterville had to
ANTE $4,000 toward the boosted econ
omy-and it was not for the purpose
of building or so much as replacing
a shingle on one OF Names cherished
institutions.

stration of financial efficiency 90 al

Editorial Comment
A Matter of Fair Play.
fBewiston Journal,

| tBeWtSten Jonfna13
ON the score of personality we have
no complaint to make on the appoint
ment of IL. +. Holmes, esq. of Lew
iston w be state librarian. We as
sumo that Mr. Holmes is suited to the
position.
We do object, however, now, as we
have hitherto, against kicking out OF
office any faithful employe before the
term to which he was appointed by
the legal authority of the people had
expired.
In our opinion Governor Plaisted has
no moral right tn discharge State
official from office without cause. lie
may have the power but that power
was never intended To be thus peevert-
ed The man who accepts public office.
who faithfully and honestly does his
work, who gives up, perehance other
business 10 accept office. on the full
understanding that under all prece-
dents his office is for Il stated term
has Il right TO fair treatment on that
understanding. The electors who
placed him there have also II right To
be indignant at the brutal and incon-
siderate treatment accorded Bank FIX
aminer Skelton, Land Commissioner
Ring, State Librarian Prince who
have been kicked out of office Tor no
stated reason except that their places
were needed by Democrats.
Talk about civil service reform. talk
about the l0,1o0 things about which
the democracy has been prating these
80 years, and see now and here, simply
the rasening for Office which eharae-
terizes such partisan procedure as
this. No man objects to the Maine
democracy filling offices ut the eXpira-
ton OF the terms thereof with Demo-
cratic SUCCESSORS but kicking faithful
officials out To maks such vacancies is
neither fair play nor decency among
men. We should take the same atti-
tttde if the Republican administration
next to succeed this colossal and
stupid failure not at Augusta should
discharge a single faithful Democratic
official before the expiration of this
legal term of office. This is mol Il
matter Of politics. Ii is matter IF

That we are never too old to learn

Cleveland, Ohio, saloonkeepers have

an advertisement appeared in one of

A Ridiculous Political canard.

Shall the following from the news
labelled as it appears, "a rank lie for
political effect" or shall it be excused
as an amateurish attempt at news
sensationalism The purpose would
seem manifest but any hope that such
complete fiction would reach only
those among whom it might be effect
i've is scarcely to be credited The
item, published under the heading
Republicans in a Row was as fol-
lows.
Republican leaders and politicians of
the city met tonight for the purpose OF
bringing about harmony in the kepan-
liean ranks and incidentally 10 dig up Il
new candidate for mayor Ihe name
suggested was that of James K. Town
send. for many years tax collector under
both Republican and Democratic admin
istrations. The attempt To substitute MT.
Townsend for Frank q. harrington, who
was defeated a year ago by Mayor Renel
j. Moves, resulted in a disagreement SO
II is understood, which threatens to raise
havoc with the plans for a reorSaniza-
ton OF the party in this city
Details of the rev are dlffieuU 10 Cd
tain but it is known that the discussion
was continued on the street after the
meeting broke up and indicated anything
hut the love feast which was scheduled
II is reported that Farringtons friends
were more numerous in this meeting man
the Townsend supporters and that fitf-
rington was endorsed. but whether ne
will be the nominee OF the party IN Tue
nrfnarjes remains to be seen. In any
event a most beautiful row has been
started.
II is indeed regrettahle that any
suggestion of Improvement which
might have been injected into the
Watervilie paper by reorganization
should thus be set at naught, but there
seems not The slightest iota of fact
upon which to base their statement.
The several addresses at the meet
ing were trimming with confidence
over the optimistic outlook. and abso-
lutte harmonious enthusiasm WAS ev-
everywhere evident The meeting adj

published this morning. It was sheer
fabrication out of the whole cloth, for
the utmost harmony prevailed. There
absolutely was not the slightest peg
upon which 10 hang any such story.
An expression favoring Mr.. Earring
tons candidacy was suggested and,
from where l sat. every man in the
hall appeared to raise a hand. I did
not hear a single mention of my name
in any connection whatever with the
nomination. ! will say that il it had
been I should have insisted most en-
phatically upon its immediate with

Other leading Republicans are as
