OPENS DEBATE ON
CURRENCY MEASURE
Senator Owen Says Bill Will
Prove Beneficial.

Washington, Nov. 25.-Under the
present system the bank reserves Of
the country are concentrated largely
in New York, where they are loaned
in speculative accounts on the New
York stock exchange, Senator Owen
asserted in opening the debate on the
currency bill in the senate. He said
the administration bill as reported by
the Democrats of the banking COM
mittee would remedy this condition.
Senator Owen said that by the crea-
ton of a market for discounted COM
mercial paper and by mobilizing the
reserves in public utility regional
banks the measure would remove the
great dangers of the present financial
system.
The senator declared that the New
York bankers who hold large per-
centage of the country's reserves are
forced to place these reserves in call
loans on the stock exchange.

SKATING IS BEST
IN MANY YEARS

Skating has not been so good in
many years as at the present time on
the Gunnison river. A very few from
this city brayed the bitter cold wind
yesterday. and went for a skate on
the river. but they were rewarded
with over three miles Of beautiful ice,
thick, green smooth and free from
snow. The best skating is Just be-
yond the old city pumping plant
where there is stretch OF ice about
three acres in extent that is superb
The ice is | 4 inches thick.
Tuesday night a large party Of
skaters enjoyed themselves under the
Gunnison bridge. where the ice was
fine. but the wind yesterday morning
covered that part of the ice with sand
and dust, making further enjoyment
on skates impossible.
During the week several big par
ties CT local young people will enjoy
themselves on The river. and already
several groups have planned to make
excursions in the evening. taking
their lunch with them to eat around

The state recall amendment. while

There is single exception TO the

The death Of Mrs. William F. Hutchings
Of which mention was made in recent
issue Of The AMERICAN, brought keen
sorrow to many former residents OF the
town as well as to the present community.
Few women have held a warmer place
in the hearts Of her friends than she Who
has gone; OF high Christian principle and
moral character, mo worthy cause in
church or society was ever refused her
generous aid, and her influence was ever
on the side OF that which stood for the
best interests.
Her home, centrally located at the Cor
ner, was ever open to her friends. young
and old, and her abundant hospitality
will long be remembered.
Her husband and daughter do not
mourn her loss alone, and are assured of
the deepest sympathy of all who knew
and loved her for her true worth as
woman, neighbor and friend.

CITY ELECTION.
A QUIET AND GOOD NATURED
CONTEST.
MAYOR CUNNINGHAM RE ELECTED
REPUBLICANS ELECT THREE AL
DERMEN AND RETAIN CONTROL.

The annual spring election in Ellsworth
last Monday passed off without hitch in
the proceedings and with unusual quiet.
1t was clear that the voters as a whole
would be ''happy with either il 'tother
dear charmer were away.
AS is becoming more and more the
fashion in municipal affairs, party lines
were not sharply drawn, although both
parties had workers at the polls and about
town, and in most of the wards it was not
easy at any time during the day to predict
with any certainty the result.
There was a striking absence of those
factional fights which have characterized
Ellsworth's municipal elections in recent
years; instead, there was good-natured
bantering, hobnobbing of opposing can
didates, and general feeling that the
city's interests would be safe in the hands
of the winning ticket, whichever it might
happen to be.
HThe total vote on the head of the ticket
was S51, or 148 less than the total vote of last
year, which was 500. Mayor Cunningham
received 443 votes by curious coinci-
dence the exact number cast last year for
the defeated candidate.
The political complexion of the board
is the same as last year-a democratic
mayor and two democratic aldermen-all
reelected. OF the three republican al
dermen elected one - Aid. Moor of
ward 5, is reelected. The two new MEM
bers are w. j. Clark, jr., in ward /, who
becomes for the first time city father,
and is the skid" of the board, and Frank
r. Moore, in ward 2, who has served as
alderman in previous years.
Following is the vote in detail from the
tabulation made by the mayor and alder
men yesterday. The vote for mayor last
year is printed for comparison:

Ten Maine cities held elections last
Monday. One, Auburn, elected a pro-
gressive mayor, and the city government
is progressive. OF the other nine, six
elected democratic mayors and three
elected republican mayors, but of these
six which elected democratic mayors only
three elected also democratic city gov
eminent. Following are the results in
these cities:

The mayor was instructed to employ

names OF all the streets OF the city and
the number of street signs required for
each street; also to obtain the signatures
~ all residents who will agree to furnish
rsceptacles for mail and have their places
a, business and residences numbered; all
this for the purpose OF meeting the re-
opirsments OF the postofflce department
as REQUISITE for the establishment Of city

On motion the mayor was directed to
employ Peters 81 Knowlton to represent
the city in certain pending suits.
There being no other business, the COM
pliments of the season we're politely passed
about the board; the retiring member from
ward was called upon for speech; he
acknowledged the compliment, but de-
clined to comply with the request.
The meeting then adjourned.
