New England weather may be thing
Of vagsries, as Mark Twain so entertain
ingly assured US, but at this period IN
the country's history We can look out
over the great central valley of America
at the ruin and death that have been
wrought by the elements, and rejoice
that our lot is cast in New England. The
recent storms and floods in the central
valley will rank with the few great dis,
asters of the country in their destruct,
iveness-the Chicago fire, the Johns,
town flood, the San Francisco earth.
quake and fire. All other disasters are
dwarfed by these, in destruction of life
and property.

As usual in the rush of the closing
days of session of the legislature, there
has been, il is said, more or less talk at
Augusta about annual sessions. Ii will
end in talk. There is no need of a ses-
sion every year-not even for the benefit
of the Augusta hotels. With the pro-
gressive political measures We have been
adopting in the past few years, and the
agitation for changes of one kind and
another, it has already got to the point
where a political campaign is pretty
nearly continuous performance, and
we don't need to increase our political
disturbance by doubling up on the legis-
latiye sessions.
Oxford Democrat., 1913-04-01

Since the above was in type, more has
been learned regarding the facts, so that
the figures showing the loss of life in the
Ohio valley have been revised downward
on large scale. For all that, in loss OF
property and suffering caused, the storms
and floods of March, 1913, still stand as
one of the stupendous disasters.
Oxford Democrat., 1913-04-01

New England rivers also run to the
sea, like those of the central valley, and
the waters pour down them in flood at
times; but the confgurstion of the face
of the earth is not such as to cause US to
'tempt providence" to any large extent
by building our homes and our factories
and our assembling places and our rail-
roads in the path of possible torrent.

Parcel post is apparently not one Of
those things which leaps into instant
popularity with a flourish of trumpets,
and then loses its hold, but rather one of
the institutions which the people have
to learn to use, and which grows in favor
with use. The statistics of the depart
meut indicate that the parcel post busl-
ness done in February, the second month
of its existence, was considerably larger

Another slight change in the weather
once more. First warm as May or even
June, then snow or rain. Thursday,
the 9th, when we turned out we
found three inches of hail on the ground
well frozen together, and soon we saw
the heavy teams moving toward the
woods to try once more to move pulp
wood, fire wood and logs from the
woods. And soon the rain began to
move the snow. But the most of the
men stuck to their job through the day,
not seeming to notice the weather, al
though one man carried an umbrella over
his head while drawing wood to the
dooryard until night. We cannot report
how be managed while loading and un-
loading, but presume be hired q boy If
be could find one to hold the umbrella

Governor Haines on Thursday caused
something Of q sensation by a special
message to the legislature in which be
advises trial by the legialsture OF Sheriff
Moulton of Cumberland County, for
failure to observe the duties OF his office
by enforcement of the prohibitory law.
The message was accompanied by petit
tions addressed to the governor asking
for such action, by lists Of witnesses and
of places In Portland where it is alleged
that LIQUOR Is sold with the connivance
of the sheriff. Governor Haines says Ii
is also alleged that there Is lack OF en-
forcement In other counties, and that
similar action will doubtless follow with
regard to the officers Of some other
counties.
When this message reached the senate,
there were added to the resolve the
names Of some other county officials,
making a list of six who are now slated
to be tried by the legislature. Besides
Sheriff MoultOn, the Others are Sheriff
Hewett NJ. Lowe Of Androscoggin, and
County Attorney William II. Hines,
present mayor Of Lewiston, Sheriff Will
bert ". Emerson Of Penobscot County,
Sheriff Adelbert j. Tolmsn Of Knox
County, and Sheriff John w. Ballou of
Ssgadahoc County.
Attorney General Scott Wilson will
represent the state In the trials, and the
attorneys for the defence will be former
attorney general VIM. r. Psttangall OF
waterville and Judge Louis G. Stearns
Of Bangor.
The matter Is now on the table in the
house, to be taken up Tuesday. II is
hardly necessary to say that with this
business on hand the legislature Is not
likely to adjourn this week.
Oxford Democrat., 1913-04-01
Notes of the Legislature.

Some measures which have been dis
posed of by unfavorable action are the
bridge bill, providing for the building OF
bridges by state, county and town, and
maintenance by the state; the Hastings
BILL" so called, which would make i'm
prisonment compulsory in violations OF
the liquor law; the bill for distribution
of the school fund on the basis of aggre-
gate school attendance; the printing OF
additional volumes of the York deeds, q
bill providing fine or imprisonment as a
penalty for removing an automobile
from a garage without paying the bill.
The public utilities commission bill
was finally enacted with few radical
changes from the form in which it was
reported by the sub committee having 1t
in charge. II provides for commission
CT three members 10 be appointed by the
governor, the chairman having a salary
Of $4,000, and the Others $4,000, with
clerk and assistant. The railroad com
missioners and the water storage COM
mission are abolished. The commits
sioners may be appointed after July lst,
and their duties will begin Sept. lst.
They have extensive powers in the mat.
ter of rates and other conditions in all
public utilities.
Although the Massachusetts, ballot act
had been once indefinitely postponed IN
the house, il was revived last week suth
ciently for second and final defeat, on
which the vote was Is to IS. Most of the
Republicans and the PrOgressiyes voted
in favor of the bill. Some Republicans
and all the Democrats voted against it.
The apple packing bill, after various
hearings and amendments, finally passed
with less strict requirements as to the
sorting of the fruit than there were in
the bill when introduced.
A bill giving the governor and council
power to order the county commissioners
Of any county to make changes recon-
mended by the prison inspectors at the
expense of the county was turned down
by the legisture. A similar measure was
formerly law, but was repealed by the
legislature of 1911.
In Its original form as introduced in
the legislature, the bill incorporating the
York County Power Company gave the
company charter rights not only in York
County, but in all unoccupied territory
In Oxford County. The new draft which
was favorably reported gives the COM
pauy rights in Oxford County only in the
towns Of Fryeburg, Porter and Hiram.
The statutes are to DO revised, and
John A. Morrill, OF Auburn, who had
charge of the revision OF 1908, will also
have charge OF this.
