A JOINT DEBATE
Is Proposed Between Regular Republi
cans and the Progressives.

Believing that the citizens of Car
diner are very much interested in the
present Presidential campaign and are
willing to hear both sides of the ques-
ton. especially as regards the merits
of President Taft and ex-President
Roosevelt as candidates. Charles A.
Knight, vice president of the Gardi :
ner Republican Club, has sent an open
letter 10 o. b. Clason president OF the
Gardiner Progressive Club. asking that
a Joint debate be held sometime before
the campaign closes between Col Il.
c. Plummer of Bath, who spoke here,
Friday evening, last. and any repre-
sentative of the Progressive party
whom Mr.. Clason might select Mr..
Knights letter was as follows:
Oct. &c, 1912.
Hon. Q. b. Clason,
President Gardiner Progressive Club,
Gardiner, Me.
Brother Clason:
At the Republican rally. last eve
ming, addressed by Col. f. C. Plum
mer of Bath, | noticed several Gar
diner Progressives, and at the Pro-
gressive Club, addressed by Gen.
Seiders. there were several Taft men.
This would seem to Indicate that our
voters are interested in hearing the
discussion of the important issues o.
today. The weather both evenings was
unfavorable for large attendance.
Col. Plummer said he would be glad
to meet any representative of the Pro-
gressive party in joint debate for
discussion of the political issues of the
present campaign.
Will il not be possible for you to
arrange, before the end of the cam
paign, for joint debate between Col.
Plummer and any representative OF
the Progressive party whom YOU may
select, whether he resides in Gardiner
in Maine or in any part of the United
Statess If so, I will be glad to con-
fer With YOU upon. the question of Sc
curing a hall and the matter of di-
viding the expense of holding such a
debate. The Gardiner Republican Club
will agree to pay half of the expenses
and if that is not satisfactory, / will
be glad toe take up with you the ques-
ton of paying more than half.
Yours very truly,
c. A. KNIGHT, Vice President.
Gardner Republican Club.
Regarding the invitation TO hold the
debate Mr. Clason stated, Sunday, to
the journal reporter. that he was con-
sidering the matter and would an
nounce his decision within day or
two. other prominent members of the
Progressives in this city take the view
that such debate would gain their
partv nothing and appear to be un-
willing TO hold any debate.

Stabbed in Street Fight.

AS the result OF difficulty which
occurred on Main street in front of the
store of Samuel Atlas. Saturday after
noon. Fred Beagle, of Leesburg, Har-
rison county, was stabbed and wound
ed by Carl Lantern, of the same place.
Circumstances which led up to the
trouble could not be ascertained. They
were seen short time before. both in
an apparently good humOr, although
they were under the influence of liquor.
Eye witnesses to the affair state that
as they were walking along the street
engaged in a conversation, Beagle is
alleged to have struck Lantern.
The latter then drew his knife and
the men clinched. while Lantern used
the blade with telling effect upon his
antagonist. Five wounds were inflict-
ed upon the left shoulder and side OF
Beagle, but none of them are of seri-
GUS nature.
Beagle was taken to the Office of DR..
w. G. Ussery, who dressed his wounds.
and he was taken to his home in Lees
burg. Lantern was taken into custody
at the corner of High and Seventh
streets by Patrolmau u. N. McKenney
and lodged in jail. Sunday morning he
was released upon $3.50 bond for his
appearance at the examining trial.
which will he held in police court this
morning at 10 o'clock.
