Yes, Help the Governor,

In patting the back of His Excel
lency, on the message. the Waterville
Sentinel says: The conditions which
have grown up in some of the coun-
ties under the Statewide prohibitory
system are intolerable. The Governor
believes that an earnest and honest
effort should be made to remedy those
conditions. 1t is a position in which
he should have the support of good
citizens irrespective of their party
affiliations"
Please allow us to gently suggest
that the very best way to so about
remedying these .intolerable condi-
tons" in Waterville, for instance, is
for the mayor and the city marshal
and Sheriff Richardson and few 9TH

Editorial Comment
Way They Lowered Taxes.

During the last political campaign
much was said about the back break
ing burdens of taxation that were be-
ing borne unnecessarily by the people
of Maine, and the Democratic orators
and newspapers assured the public
that if the affairs of the State We're
entrusted to them the State tax would
be reduced forthwith. Our people well
remember the slogan, You're being
robbed by this Republican crowd, your
taxes are too high, give us the chance
and we viii cut them down" Listen
They were given a chance and the
State tax was increased one million
ninety one thousand dollars. This, of
course was divided among the towns
of the State. How about Bethel? Our
State tax in 1910, under the wicked
Republican administration was $4.Ss3.-
OF. In 1911 under the present admin
istration it was $6,24246. In other
words the relief that was so faithfully
promised came in the way of AN in
creased tax of 81, 359.45, or an average
of nearly SO each on the voting pop
ulation of Bethel-OXford County Cit
izen.

And coiors il with sweet imaglnngs.
Cloudy embroideries, by sunset kissed.
He sees among the dewdrops ON the ferns

The pent-up laughter of thousand

LAKE is WALLED UP.
Curious Sheet of Water in Iowa Higher
Than the Land

One of the curiosties of the West is
the "Walled Lake. something over 100
miles west of Dubuque, Iowa. This lake
is from to 8 feet higher than the
earth's surface. In some places the wall
tom, and feet ON top. A remarkable
circumstance with reference TO this odd
lake is the size of the stones used in its
construction, inasmueh as the whole of
them varies in weight from 3 tons to 100
pounds. There is abundance of stones IN
Wright county, but surrounding the lake
to the extent of or 10 miles there are
none.
No one has any idea as to the means
employed to bring these stones to the
spot, or as to who constructed this lake
Around the entire lake is a belt of wood
land half Il mile in length composed of
oak. with this exception the country IS
rolling prairie. The trees must have
been planted there at the time of the
building of the wall. In the spring of
the year 1856 there was a great Storm
and the ice on the lake broke the wall in
several places. The farmers in the yiein-
, ity We're obliged to repair the damages 10
prevent inundation. The lake occupies
ground surface of $500 acres The
depth of the water is as great as 25 feet.
The water is clear and cold; the soil IS
sandy and loamy. II is a singular fact
that no one has been able to ascertain
where the water comes from, nor where
| il goes: yet it is always fresh and clear.
