Growth of the Telephone

The report just issued by the American
Telephone Telegraph Co. for the year
ending December 81, 1912, shows that the
telephone has become in the United
States, to a greater extent than anywhere
else in the world, a household necessity.
There are now 10000 towns, cities and
hamlets from which telephone messages
may be sent. This is 5000 more than the
number of post-offices in the United
States, 10000 more than the number OF
railroad stations, and nearly three times
the number OF regular telegraph offices.
There are altogether 7,456,074 telephone
stations in the Bell system, which is an
increase over last year of s23,44 stations.
This compares with an increase during
the previous year of 749, 906 stations.
Including the traffic over the long-dis-
lance lines, but not including the con-
Meeting companies, the daily average oil
toll connections in 1912 was about 73s, goo
and of exchange connections about rs ,572,
600. This compares with 645, 900 and %, 4s4
600 in 1911. Speaking broadly, this mean
that the daily average OF telephone con
versatious last year reached 26,310,000, o
At the rate OF about S.472, 000, 900 for tn
year, as against "a, 129 600 in 1911, when thu
rate was Ito, 000, 600 year.

Gettysburg Veterans

The fiftieth anniversary of the battle OF
Gettysburg is to be celebrated on the
famous battlefield next July, and for the
four days of the celebration, all honorably
discharged veterans Of the Civil war will
be furnished with quarters, subsistence
and medical attendance by the United
States government and the state OF
Pennsylvania.
Maine will furnish free transportation
to Gettysburg and return for all particle
pants ofthat battle now resident in Maine
and in addition will provide subsis-
tence and medical attendance for the
journey. Veterans OF the war who were
not actual participants can avail them
selves OF very low excursion rates.
The State authorities wish to secure, as
soon as possible, the names of all veterans
who desire to go to Gettysburg, either at
State or their own expense. ANY veteran
who served in Maine organization which
has regimental or battery association
should Immediately write to the secretary
OF such association and ask to be included
on the list to be sent the adjutant- general.
Veterans who served in organizations from
other states, in the regular army or in a
MAINE organization which has no active
association, should write Immediately to
the acknowledgement, Augusta, Maine.
In writing either the regimental secre-
tary or the adjutant general, veterans
should state the organization in which
they served and whether they expect to
80 at State or personal expense.

Changes in Names Judiciary.

Changes in Names Judiciary.
Chief Justice Whitehouse retires
from the supreme bench full of years
and honor. In this county, as well as
elsewhere throughout the State, Judge
Whitehouse has hosts of whole
hearted friends who wish him many
years of health and happiness, IN
ruffied by judicial cares and free from
all the ills to which flesh is heir.
Hon. A. r. Savage, who succeeds
Judge Whitehouse as chief justice of
the supreme judicial court of Maine,
is jurist well qualified to follow in
that position his many distinguished
predecessors. Of high character,
learned in the law, and of great affa-
bility, his elevation has the heartiest
approval of bench and bar and people.
1t is not unusual for governors of
Maine to come to Hancock county
for men to fill high positions. While
Warren @. Philbrook, elevated to an
associate justiceship, is now a citizen
of Waterville, Sedgwick, in this
county, claims him as her own, and all
Hancock county cheerfully joins that
town in loaning him to the city of
his adoption - even for the rest of
his natural life, and with her is proud
of him as citizen, Judge, gentle
man.

The burning of the bark Penobscot at
Conception, Uruguay, strikes from the

pearing American square-riggers. The
Penobscot was built at Bucksport, and
