The Sensible Buy
II Homo Movement.

One of the movements that ia always
timely Is the buy at-home movement
Few small cities are without their
phalanx of money drainers. who, with
out the least sense Of loyalty TO their
neighbors, prefer to spend theiI
money in other places either 10 per
son or by mail The phalanx wakes
and wanes with the ebb and flow Of
civic loyalty. 1t never entirely d isa-
ppears but constant jogging Of civic
patriotism keeps it down
Occur Alene is agitating buy
at home movement and it appears
that with many new settlers coming
into this part of the country now
would be a good time for Sc Mariea
to start Along with the general buy
at-home idea should be emphasized
home made goods aud home grow D.
products Goods Of home manuiact'
ure and vegetables Of home growth
should be pushed TO the front.
The community that patronizes les
home merchant and IT'S home
farmer isths nne where the newcomer
will pitch bis tent and start his new
enterprise Whether be Wishes 90
engage 10 farming or any other line
Of work for which the country is
adapted, be knows that he viii have
the assistance aud encouragement of
his home people. The home
cause is worthy Of every mans sup
port.

POST OFFICE SITE IS
NOT CHANGED
Heselton Lot Settled
Upon at Washington
4. y. Merrill and :. W. Phiibrick Re-
turned From Trip Saying No Change
Could be Effected

Following active and animated dis
Trade at a recent meeting f. n. Mer-
rill, Esq. and S. W. Philbrick paid a
visit to Washington, D. C., and accom-
panied by Congressman Gould inter
viewed Mr.. Allen of the Treasury de
partment to see what could be done
concerning the change of the post
office site in Skowhegan from the Hes
elton lot on the corner of Water and
North streets. The treasury depart
ment had recently appropriated the
sum of $14, 900 for this site and Show
hegan people preferred that the build
ing be erected on the present site of
Hotel Coburn.
Messrs. Merrill and Philbrick how
ever were told that the department
had settled upon the Heselton lot,
this selection being made because
there had been no other tentative bid
on any other lot in town. Further
statement was made to the effect that
the matter had been presented to Con-
gressman Gould and that Mr.. Gould
had affirmed that he didn't want 70
take any sides in the matter but was
anxious to have a site decided upon
while he was in Congress. The Hes
elton lot was the only one at that time
that the Washington authorities had
any definite knowledge of and conse-
quently it was the location determined
upon.
The principal reason for the citizens
being dissatisfied with the Heseton lot
is that they claim such a location is
too far distant from the business por-
ton of the town.

Nelson Wheeler Weston.

Many throughout the town were
saddened Monday when it was learn
ed that Nelson Wheeler Weston had
passed away at an early hour that
morning. His health had not been the
best for some time but his final ILL
ness covered a period of only about
one week, pneumonia ~being the i'm
mediate cause of his death.
Mr.. Weston was born in 1850 in
Skowhegan, the son of the late Mr..
and Mrs. John Weston. The latter
has been dead some years but Mr..
Weston senior passed away only about
seven weeks before the demise of his
son. In April 1889 Nelson Weston
and Miss Emma Palmer of Dover were
united in marriage and their home
has always been in Skowhegan. Pre-
vious to Mr.. Weston's assuming the
management of the farm he became
quite noted as a horseman. He was
well known in this vicinity although
he lived a quiet life on his dlightful
country estate which is elegantly fit
ted up and is situated about one mile
from this village. The Ancient Order
of United Workmen was the only
order with which he was connected
Beside the widow there are two sons
Howard Nelson Weston, student at
the Georgetown University, Washing
ton, d. c., who has ben at home for
some time owing to i'll health and
Fred Wheeler Weston graduate of
Skowhegan High School, class of 1912
There are also three sisters, Mrs.
Lizzie Healey, Mrs. Addie White, Mrs
Della Weston, all of Skowhegan and
two brothers, Horace of Skowhegan
and Walter c. of Boston.
The memorial services were held
yesterday afternoon at , o'clock at
the residence. Rev. Theodore Halbert
Wilson of the Congregational church
