REGISTER FOR PRIMARY.

Municipal Officers will Register
Voters Next Friday and Saturday.
The municipal officers OF Ellsworth, not
the refrigerated board of registration,
will register voters for the primary cleo
tion OF next Monday. The board will be
in session Friday and Saturday OF this
week from a. IN. to p. m; 3 to and
from to 8 p. m. to register new voters
and correct the voting lists. Registration
will close at 5 p, m Saturday.
e. j. Walsh has been nominated by the
governor, and confirmed, as chairman of
the board of registration of Ellsworth,
The other members of the board, APP
pointed by the mayor on recommendation
of the republican and democratic city
committees respectively, are John Ii.
SiIvy and John E. Doyle.
This board OF registration is appointed
under the law passed by the last legisla-
ture requiring cities of $500 inhabitants
and upward to have boards OF registrs-
ton; in sli towns and cities OF. less than
$500, the work of registration devolves
upon the municipal officers.
worth had posted notices to sit for the
five days preceding the primary election.
when Mayor Cunningham called atten-
tion 10 the fact that the law OF last yesl
did not repeal the law relating to registra-
tion OF voters before primary election
The matter was referred to counsel, and II
was decided advisable, owing to the in
consistency of the law, to allow the regis
trstion for the primary of July Is to b
done by the municipal officers.
There is some question, also, whether
the board OF registration, under the Law
of last year, can act before an election
The law repeats one section of the chapter
relating to boards of registration, and
does not repeal, in terms, at least, another
section of the same chapter relating te
registration of voters, leaving an apparent
inconsistency in the law. This point will
be decided later.
The board of registration will, however
meet for the annual revision of the voting
list, sometime this month.

Get Out of the Ruts.

"Don't ruin the roads by riding in ruts, 7"
should be the motto ofevery automobilist.
Rut-r riding is one of the greatest causes OF
poor roads to-day, and is something that
everyone should strive to avoid.
We automobiiists cry for good roads,
but we do little ON our part to help main
tain and keep them good after once we
get them. Rut- riding is the result Of
Ignorance or the rankest kind OF thought
lessness.
Newly-constructed roads develop ruts
much more quickly than old pieces OF
highway, and for this reason automo-
biiists should use greater care to ride all
over the road rather than to follow In the
tracks OF the man who has gone ahead OF
him. Even after deep ruts have de-
veioped, there is no excuse for riding in
them, and In the majority OF cases, it ID
far easier to ride with one wheel In the
center and one wheel on the extreme edge
OF the road. The riding is far smoother
and in addition, it Is very much safer.
Every city and town can show many
examples where rut-riding has ruined
an excellent piece OF road in q compare
lively short time. II automobilists on
these same stretches OF highway had trav-
eled all over the road instead OF following
in the tracks OF the man ahead, the road
would have been improved instead Of
ruined.

particularly in the sending OF valuable
merchandise.
During the present month an immense
business has been built mp in the handl-
ing of parcels forwarded under the G. o.
u. regulation inaugurste6 July !, 1918,
which is said to be proving popular not
only among merchants but among the
people generally.
Postal experts estimate that, with the
proposed changes in the parcel post sys-
TEN in operation, the revenues OF the post
Office department will be so increased as
to show a substantial surplus at the end
OF the current fiscal year.

WEDNESDAY, JULY %, 1918



If John A. Peters becomes a candi-
date for the republican nomination
for Congress in the third district
there can be but one outcome to the
election If the voters of that district
regard ability, integrity, liberality of
views and character as any recomen-
dation in seeking an Office of this i'm
portance. Mr.. Peters possesses all of
these qualifications and many others.
The State never knew speaker of the
House who held the confidence and
enjoyed the respect of the people of
this State to greater degree than
did Mr.. Peters.
In the most difficult legislative ses-
sion the State has known In a genera
ton, with parties sharply aligned
upon all issues and feeling running
high, Mr.. Peters presided over the
House in such a way as 70 win the
praise and commentator Of his po-
ntical opponents as well as of his
party associates.
In three legislative sessions Mr..
Peters has demonstrated his ability as
a man of independent thought, con-
structive ability, and shown himself
to be diligent and painstaking
worker. In debate he has measured
swords with the ablest men in his own
and in the democratic party, and has
on every occasion acquitted himself
well. He has, since he entered public
life, enjoyed the confidence and been
the advisor of governors and leaders
in politics in this State, and wherever
he has been placed he has shown that
he can make good.
II Mr.. Peters heads the republican
ticket in this special election he will
poll the entire republican vote and
will command support which prob
ably no other republican in the third
district at this time could command.
Geographically he comes from that
section of the third district which has
not had representative in the House
in many years, and in the newly
added county of Washington, which
is now part of the third district,
Mr.. Peters is as well known and as
highly respected as any one who could
be found who is not resident of
Washington county itself.
Taking all in all he will make an
ideal candidate, and he should be ac-
corded enthusiastic and generous sup
port. If he is elected to represent
this district in Congress, and the
chances for his election even under
the present conditions are extremely
good, Mr.. Peters will never give his
constituents cause for regretting his
election.
If he goes to Washington he will be
sure to rank high among the con-
structive representatives of the
country. His liberal views on all
questions are recognized by all
elements in the republican party, and
will commend him to the progressive
spirit of the period.

WHEN WE COMPLAIN.

WHEN WE COMFLAlN.
There is living at North. Sedgwick q
man whose courage and bravery fur
nish an example to those wont TO COM
plain of their own hard lot. He is known
at his home and at Bluehill, where he
formerly lived, as Richard Abbott, the
blacksmith.
In 1904 he was obliged to go to the hospi-
tai at Bangor and have his foot and sew
eral inches OF his leg smpatated because
OF gsngrene. He was then sixty nine
years OF sge. In few months he had q
foot fitted and went to work in his shop,
where he continued to work for more
than seven years.
Then the gangrene appeared in his other
foot, and after months OF intense suffer
ing, he went again to the hospital, but
they told him they could do nothing for
him. he was then seyenty-six years of
age. Nothing dsunted, he had DR.. Hunt,
of Bangor, come to his house and ampu-
tate his foot, ss the other had been, al
though no one, not even the doctor, gave
any hopeseof his recovery.
A., In q short time he was in W heel chair,
and soon began to make a foot like the
one made for him at the hospital. In
eight months from the time OF the ampu-
tation, with the aid OF a cane he was walk
ing about the house, and with the aid of
crutches, walks to his former shop and
into the store, and is thinking OF opening
store on his own account, where he may
pass the time that hangs heavy ON his
hands.

OF the progressive candidate for
Congress in the third district the
Machias Republican, says: "Where
Mr.. Lawrence got the idea he could
carry big vote in this district is a
constant puzzle to most of us who
have tried to elect him to Office when
he was member of the republican
party. II he has all at once become
popular in this district, we have not
heard OF it." The Republican suggests
that Mr.. Lawrence was afraid to ac-
cept the proposition OF Mr.. Peters to
contest the matter with him in the
primaries, and that he is determined
now not only to be defeated himself
but to defeat the republican candi-
date.
