FOR FLETCHER'S
IN MEMORY OF JAMES OTIS KALER.

At South Portland Friday morning,
May 23d fine portrait of the late James
Otis Kaler, who was known to a multi
tude of boys who read his books as
James Otis, but who will be remembered
as an educator and as The superintendent
of schools Of South Portland, was pre-
sented to the High school of that city.
MIR. Kaler was not in the habit of talk
ing of his literary successes or of his
place in literature, but he was proud of
the schools of South Portland and at a
time when he seemed to be fairly loaded
down with work he consented to change
the system of the Cape Elizabeth schools
and to model them after those of South
Portland, and so great was his interest
in his work that he wrote and privately
printed a history of M aine for the use of
tie schools of South Portland and Cape
Elizabeth.
The exercises were of a thoroughly in
teresting nature Hon. E. C. Reynolds, who
knew him intimately, spoke of Mr.. Kaler
as a citizen, and his tribute to him was
all the more appreciated because Mr..
Kaler was lifelong Democrat and
Judge Reynolds is lifelong Republi-
can. Supt. Simon M. Hamlin, his sue
cessor, spoke of his work as the super
intendent of schools, and DIR. F. l.
Brown paid glowing tribute to him as
friend A poem, The Closed Volume
written by Miss Adelena Dyer, was
read. Mr.. Kaler in life could have
asked for nothing more or better thar
such gathering of old friends, and such
words of warm appreciation spoken Of
him by those who in many respects knew
him the best.

Truth, the new Boston weekly, asks in
We quote the following pregnant para
graph:
Lightly referred to as social unrest, as
a protest against evils that are grossly
exaggerated and largely imaginary, the
revolt against authority is the legitimate
flower and fruit of that irreverence that
springs from weak training, demagogic
teaching and the vicious rnisconceptlon Of
liberty which resents law, rejects re-
ligiOn and ScornS the old order.
For an antidote to yellow journalism
take Truth.
In another article Truth advocates
letting the Democrats have rope in tariff
legislation. 1t believes that the Wilson,
Underwood tariff Twill strike severe
blow at many of our industries, throw
hundreds of thousands of men and women
out of employment and bring on an in
dustrial depression from which it will
take US two or three years to recover. "
Yet Truth would not have it amended or
defeated by the Republicans. Why?
Because this tariff bill, or one as bad
if not worse, is bound to go through
sooner or later. 1t was promised in the
Democratic platform. and by President
Wilson in his prediction speeches :.
We have got to take this medicine. If we
don take it this year, we will have to take
it next year or the year after. The longer
it is delayed the worse it will be and the
less able we shall be to stand it. Let us
take it now. Let US have one good, old
jamboree of free trade and tariff for
revenue and bread lines and all the rest,
and then return, as we surely will, to the
policy under which this nation has grown
and prospered as has no other nation on
earth.

Forrest Goodwin was born in Skowhe-
gan, Me-, so years ago, the son of George
E. Goodwin. When he was graduated
from the High school he had an ambition
to 60 to college, but no resources. He
bought out an ice business on credit and
by the end of the summer had paid his
debts and saved enough money to pay
the expenses of his first year in Colby
College.
At Colby he had notable career. Mr..
Goodwin was pitcher of the baseball
team and captain, editor of the college
paper and winner of prizes for scholar
ships. He was the Commencement ora
tor of the class of 1887.
Upon his graduation Mr.. Goodwin had
just enough money to pay his fare to
Bangor, where he secured place on
professional ball team. During the sum-
mer and fall of 1887 he played through
out New England, and while he was still
engaged in professional baseball he was
elected to the Legislature. He was
identified with Salem and Worcester
teams. He completed a course at the
Boston University Law School in one
yea" and was admitted at the bar of
Somerset county.
Speaker Thomas B. Reed appointed
him parliamentary clerk, and for two
years Mr.. Goodwin stood at the Speak
ers desk in Washington. Returning to
Skowhegan, Mr.. Goodwin was appointed
postmaster, a place he held until 1896.
He served two terms in the Maine Sem
ate, being president during the session
of 1905.
Mr.. Goodwin was nominated for Con-
gress in the Sd Maine District last sum-
mer and conducted very aggressive
campaign. Though he was successful,
defeating Congressman Samuel W.
Gould, his triumph was at the expense
of his health, for Mr.. Goodwin has not
been well man since last September.
Mr.. Goodwin was married in 1893 to
Miss Matte Smith of Cornville. His
wife reached the hospital before he died.
Other surviving relatives are Mrs. Elmer
E. McNeelie of Skowhegan, and Mrs
Blaine Owen of Augusta, sisters, and an
uncle Llewellyn Goodwin of Skowhegan.
His death will necessitate the calling
by Gov. Haines of special election in
the Sd District to fill the vacancy.

licans was opposed. As originally con-
stituted the commission would have
stood to for Tilden in counting the
votes of the contested States. 1t was a
political game of heads l win. tails you
lose. But Judge David Davis of Illinois,
who had had presidential bee in his
bonnet for some time, resigned from the
Supreme Bench to represent Illinois in
the United States Senate and Justice
Bradley took his place on the Commits
sion, and the votes were s to for
Hayes.
The Republican journal., 1913-06-05

A recent magazine article by Col.
Henry Watterson on the Hayes Tilden
contest of 1876-H brought out an editorial
by Mr.. Edmund Hudson in the Hartford
Times, in which it was questioned wheth-
er any really important fact relating to
the exclusion of Mr. Tilden from the
White House had remained unknown to
a considerable number of persons In
replying through the columns of the
Louisville Courier-J ournal COL Waiter
son repeated the assertion made in his
magazine article that:
The whole truth undulying the deter
inmate incidents which LED to the re-
lection of Tilden and the seating of
Hayes will never be known.
Perhaps it is for the best that they
should never be known; but the readers
of the articles by Col. Watterson and
Mr.. Hudson can hardly fail to come to
know more than they have seen fit to
m axe public. Col. Watterscn was a
member of the House of Representatives
at the time and Mr.. Hudson was the spe-
cial correspondent of the Boston Herald
at the National Capital, and an able and
experienced journalist. Col. Waiter
sons newspaper article is mainly devot-
>sG to discussion of Mr.. Tilden's atti-
tude during the controversy ard to de-
fence of Gen. Grant from what he terms
the ''brusque impeachment of the
Times writer In a later article Mr.
Hudson says that "such was not the in
tention. Merely a statement Of facts
was aimed at" That President Grant
had corrupt men in his official family is
of record and undisputed, but no one
with a knowledge of Grants character
would accuse him of participating IN or
ssanctioning this corruption. He was
then, as later, the sufferer by loyalty
to his friends. But that is another
story.
1t was an exciting time at the Ma
tional Capital and many feared the con-
troversy would result in bloodshed. In
fact. it was rumored that the Northern
Democrats were preparing to put Mr..
Tilden in the White House by armed
force, if necessary, and President Grant
was reported as ready in that event tt
call out the troops. The present writel
was called upon to interview the South
ern Congressman as to their position, ane
Gen. Phil. Cook of Georgia, battle
SCARED Confederate veteran, expressed
the common sentiment when he sale
that if the Northern Democrats wanted
to fight they could do so, but he had hat
all the fighting he wanted. Mr.. Hudson
says in the Hartford Times that tn
votes in the doubtful Southern State
were for sale by the Democrats ant
went to the Republicans as the highes
bidders. This may or may not be true
1t is true that the Democrats made des
perate efforts to secure these votes, an
that some of the men and the method
they employed were not above suspicion

teristic smile that she gives to each and
all who frequent her door.
I've not money to deposit" I said by
way of gereting, but I've come to get you
to talk to me and refute some foolish sug-
gestions that mere man has made in
regard To women and the banking bnsI-
ness
I'VE hand out as good brand of talk
here, said Mrs. Hawkins quickly. as We

you on the subject"
It was after banking hours" and Mrs.
Hawkins deserted her post of duty for
the time being, and arranging ourselves
comfortably We went in for some really
serious observations ON the subject of
women and business.
How did you happen to drift into

I'D never taken a course in banking

terestedly, but / had worked In the
American Trust and Savings bank in the
old quarters for several years as a Ste

him I'd like 1t. He said | could do So

ness hours l would go in the different
cages of the 'tellers' and watch them

they arranged the different denominations

sttuted these-and everything else there

gurated a women's department presided
over by woman"
How do you think women rank as
business leaders?" | asked. Are they
as ignorant of business as some men
give them the credit for being?"
Some of the best business men know

doxically. You would be astonished to
know how well women manage their af-
fairs. | have between 800 and 1000 women
depositors and | have practically no trou-

that l wish all women would learn. and
that is to indorse a check before they
