Excessive Protection" of Farmers.

The Waterville Sentinel comes right
derwood tariff bill is a free trade
measure 1t is sure. therefore, that
the issue of the day is not one of
protection against free trade. 1t
says
1.-The tariff bill which Is
soon to become law contains measure
of protection which would have beet
counted as high even by protectionists In
the days before the passage of the Ding
ley and Payne-Aldrieh measures. Is
not a free trade bill. But it is blil
which removes the excessive protection
that has heretofore been accorded GER
tain interests. 1t is a law which does not
contemplate, for example, the dlstribn-
tion of stock dividends oi 200 or &o pei
cent. to the owners of great industiiai es-
adjustments. 1t is law designed te
give TO every American industry all the
protection that il needs In order to pay
American wages and yield fair return
upon the capital invested but beyond
that II does not GO.
1t easily understood that what the
editor of the Sentinel does nbt know

the cock and bull yarns they are daily
| spinning about the marvellous growth
of the third party movement?
They Dragged, and waved their arms
and shouted, and frothed at the mouth
Iall winter, about this same "marvelous

| failed to back up their statements.
Instead of frankly accepting what Is
common knowledge that Mr.. Roosevelt
can any day draw more votes than any
man whose name has been heard of in
the movement in Maine, they at once
began hypoeriticalIy yowling about the
two to one vote of November and its
meaning. and the five to one vote
against the Penrose- Peters Hale Aid

They have kept this up with new
er single mention of the slump III
the municipal elections. The marvel
GUS gains have continued in the Lew
iston Journal stories and editorials, IN
spite of absolte and undeniable proof
such as we have given them. Their
only reply to these facts are blasts Of
bilingsgate and abuse.
Is il any wonder that the eyes of the
people are opening to the truth?
In closing, let us say that we know
whereof we speak; that we are pub
fishing facts for our readers and that
we have the proof Of our statements;
that we have easily confounded every
pretense of such as the Lewiston Jour
nal and its now public ally, the Water
Vile Sentinel, and that We have no
nisgivings as to the outcome. II any
one is inclined to accept such state
ments as published by the Lewiston
Journal last Friday and Saturday, We
would say to them that September
will show where the lying has been
done. If any one believes the Lewiston
converts made by its abuse of honest
Republicans of Maine, he is to receive
the surprise of his life.
Could they expect it, even were all
issues and arguments set aside, with
the organ of the Third party constant
~ referring to all Republicans as
grafters. liars, highbinders and mem

as many as the Progressives turned

MONTHLY HORTICULTURAL
SOCIETY MEETING SATURDAY

About twenty-five or thirty ranchers
were present at the regular monthly
meeting OF the Fremont County Hor-
ticultural society's meeting on satur-
day afternoon in the court house. The
unusually low attendance was due to
the fact that SO many OF the ranchers
are busy spraying and pruning and
couldn't take the time on to attend the
meeting. There was not member
present Saturday afternoon who had
not finished spraying.
Mr.. D. B. Novels Of the Novels Mer-

senates general order last wednes-

streams high up in the mountains, go
out into irrigation bitches and die in
the fields every year and all we are
asking is a law to compel the farmers
to permit US TO screen these bitches, ''
said Col. Shinn. 1--WE would use self
