The move the Merchants associa-
ton is making TO draw the attention,
especially OF the women, to goods
ssmade in Ellsworth" is move in the
right direction. Just now the effort is
being made in behalf of the Mutual
Shoemakers of Ellsworth, recently
organized corporation which is max
ing women's shoes. These goods are
on sale at c. L. Morang's and the
Century Boot Shop.
Here is offered a splendid oppor-
tuuity to practice the doctrine of
patronizing home industry. And this
is not the only opportunity which is
offered residents of Ellsworth to make
practical application of this doctrine.
Too much money is sent out of town
for goods which might be purchased
here of as good quality and as cheaply
as they can be purchased elsewhere.
True, Ellsworth merchants do not
advertise as literally as they might
greatly to their disadvantage, if they
only realized it-but that is their hunt,
and another story, and does not
justify buying out of town goods
which can be bought here with equal
advantage.

chants association: "Let's all helpi"

In last weeks paper was printed an
article written for the Maine LdU
Rerieip by Chief-Justice Emery
which county attorneys will do well
to tread, ponder, and inwardly di-
gest'. In an editorial reference to
the article, the Reviear says: Sex
Chief Justice Emery, than whom
there is no one better qualified to sug-
gest reforms in our legal procedure,
has here pointed out that one way in
which better enforcement of our
laws may be secured, is, as he writes,
by putting the brakes on county at
torneys.' That there is a growing
sentiment throughout the State that
the county attorneys are not, in many
cases, doing their plain duty, as men
charged in peculiar way with the
States welfare, is evidenced by the
general demand that has been the
occasion for this article. And there
should be no valid reason why the
representatives of the people now
assembled should not heed the call of
SO successful leader in practical
reform" A bill is now before the
legislature, making it the duty of the
attorney general to take up cases
where county attorneys neglect or
refuse to perform their plain duty.
This is the bill which, it is said, will
"put teeth in the prohibitory law.
If it will, let's all pray that it will be-
come law.

When the steamer j. T. Morse goes on
the Mt. Desert route next month, the
passengers will miss Capt. Frank l..
Winterbotham, commander of that craft
for eight years. Because of i'll health, he
has decided to leave the service, and on a
small farm in his native town Of Lamoine
will take life easy in his advancing years.
He will be succeeded in command by Capt.
Addison Shute, of Stockton Springs, who
is promoted from pilot. Few steamboat
men are better known along the Maine
coast than Capt. Winter ham. He is a
son of the late John c. Winterbotham,
a professor of music. His steamboating
career began when he was appointed first
officer OF the steam boat RocklaDd. His
first command was the steamer Chester W.
Chaplin, which ran between Mt. Desert and
Lamoine. Next he had charge of the
steamer Sappho, in the Frenchman's Bay
service. In 1892 ne went to the steamer
Mt. Desert as pilot, and in 1899 succeeded
Capt. Mark L. Ingrahsm in command.
Then the "Mounty" gave way to the j. T.
Morse.
