CURE among the newsboys in those
days, greatly amused Mr.. Carter one
afternoon by shouting to him:
Here's the Journal All about the
bombardment of Sanity Ago by John
S. Cohen.
We were constantly looking for
big things to happen after the Amer
lean forces left our ports and Mr..
Carter used to come to the Journal
office on Sunday and hang around
with one or two other members oe
the staff waiting for the wires to
bring us tidings of battles. During
these waiting hours we were often
entertained by Mr.. Carter with re-.
collections of other days of stirr-

anecdotes of public men-of the
stir and strife of a Journalists life

In his political speech at Pittsburg, in
which he fayed the administration, con-
demning its foreign policy, its tariff pol
ICY and its antitrust policy, Roosevelt
also assailed the bosses-the pot calling
the kettle black and made special men,
ton of Hon. William Barnes of New
York and U. S. Senator Boise Penrose
of Pennsylvania. The latter in replying
to the accusations made against him
publishes the following letter, received
after sending to Roosevelt, as chairman
of the Republican State committee, the
returns of the presidential election in
Pennsylvania in 1904:
My Dear Senator Penrose: Upon my
word, Of all phenomenal returns. the re-
turns from Pennsylvania are most phe.
nomenal. congratulate and cordially
Faithfully yours,
Theodore Roosevelt"
Mr.. Penrose says further:
SIN fact during the whole period of
-Mr. Roosevelt's presidency. my relations
with him were cordial. l co-operated
with him in nearly all of his policies as q
member Of the United States Senate and
when certain potential elements in the
Republican party were plotting to defeat
him for the nomination in 1904 I was

-mittee of Pennsylvania, and most active
in having him endorsed for nomination

The Republi an committee men of the Third
district conferred July 9th at the Elmwood
Watervile regarding the coming campaign.
The political situation throughout the district.
was looked over from all angles and the leaders
expressed their satisfaction at the outlook and
spirit shown at the conference. The opinion
was unanimous that the prospect forRepublican
success at the coming election was already
excellent and growing better every day.
Every man brought good word from his own
section and also the same kind of report
from other places. Plans for the campaign
were discussed and the work laid out to be
carried along with vim. The committee will
again meet at an early date. The members of

Twas largely instrumental in giving the
splendid majority to which the letter
above mentioned refers.
Il am further informed that Mr.. Roose
welt refers to the fact that opposed hin

this is the real reason for his change of

their enemies and leaders to their friends.

A FAMILY REUNION in LINCOLN
VILE.

very pleasant home co ming took place at
Mr. and Mrs. Chester Deans in Lncolnville
July 4th, when their children and families were
assembled for a family reunion. The affair
was the more pleasant from the fact that
the family had not all been together for about
twenty years. In addition to the host and
hostess the party consisted of Mr.. and Mrs.
Walter Staples and Mr.. Staples mother. Mr..
and Mrs. Edwin ]. Heal, Mr.. and Mrs. Gorham
Dean and Mr.. and Mrs. Ben Pooley of Camden
and Mr.. and Mrs. Geo. Robinson Of Appleton.
These with the grandchildren made a happy
circle of twenty two. who enjoyed bounteous
dinner after which the afternoon was spent in
pleasant chat, strolls about the old home place
and a revival of memories incident to child
hood days. The day was enjoyed by all. and
especially by Mr.. and Mrs. Dean, to whom the
occasion was of more than usual interest and
from which pleasant memories will linger in
the years to come. A hay rack ride by the
party from Camden was an enjoyable feature
Of the day.

IDENTIFY draws the line now at its attacks
on business. Speaking editorially of an
agreement of several of the largest le-
tail establishments in New York city to
close Saturdays (all day. during July
and August, it says: presumably this
agreement, by which thousands of en-
ployees get full Saturday holiday, with
much good to them and no harm to any
body else, is a restraint of competition,

I AL meeting last week OIL tnOSe III
terested in the building of a new schoo
house Mr. Ira M. Cobe was present. Mr.
Cobe had agreed to take considerable
amount of the stock, and has otherwise
shown his interest in the undertaking
and for his own protection and that OF
other bondholders he has investigated the
matter of the erection of public buildings
or the acquiring of public utilities by
cities that had borrowed up to their debt
limit, and presented at this meeting an
exhaustive law brief which very clearly
demonstrated that the Belfast Public
Buildings Co. could not build school
house on the school common under the
plans proposed, as the courts have re-
peatedly ruled that any means taken to
evade or get around the constitutional
limitation of indebtedness would be set
aside as void. Upon application of any
taxpayer to the court the transfer of the
lot by the city to the Buildings Co. could
be declared void, and the building there
on not being detachable from the realty
would become the city's property and the
bondhoders would be Invested of all Sc
curity. 1t was suggested that this diff
Guilty might be avoided by the Public
Buildings Co. buying lot on which the
city has no claim, erecting the building
thereon and making their lease with the
city as proposed. Then, though there
might be some question as to the abso-
lutte legality of the lease, nothing could
affect the security to the bondhohers,
and as the city in its own interest would
be compelled to keep the terms of its
contract the bonds would be good in
vestment.
A Belfast citizen, who is not member
of tn building company or the city gov
eminent, but who is interested in the
prosperity and welfare of his native
place, some time before this meeting ex-
pressed his disapproval of the plan now
found to be illegal, as unnecessarily cost
ly. He believes that if application was
made to the Legislature for permission to
issue bonds to a specified amount for
building schoolhouse it would no doubt
be granted, and the bonds could then be
foated at per cent instead Of paying G..
per cent as under the present plan. As
the building cannot be begun this fall
and the Legislature meets in January
next there would be ample time to Sc
c ure the necessary legislation so that
work on the building might begin in the
spring. Under this plan it would not be
necessary to get lot elsewhere and the
$40, 900 in bonds that were to have been
issued in payment for the lot would not
be needed 1t is also estimated that the
city would save SIS, 900 in interest.
While we doubt if there is any citizen
whose opinion has weight who does not
see the need for a new school building
and hopes to see one erected at an early
day there are many who think that the
plan proposed, and which is now found to
be of at least doubtful legality, is un-
necessarily expensive.

We hear good deal pro and con about
prohibition in Kansas; but William Allen
White, wis was born in that State and
has lived there all his life, ought to be
accepted as an authority, and this is what
he says in recent issue of the Saturday
Evening Post.
The prohibitory law is now enforced in
a hundred of the one hundred and five
counties of the State, and it is enforced
as rigidly as any law on the statute book
So rigidly is the prohibitory law enforced
shat .juries in those hundred counties
convict men on evidence for violating
this law who are known as second Offend
ers and whose conviction lands them not
merely in Jail but in the penitentiary.
There is much more to the same effect,
and it is said that people have grown up
under prohibition who would shun liquor
if there was a saloon on every street
corner. The dealh rate has been lowered,
crime decreased, taxes are lower, and
while some liquor is shipped into Kansas
the consumption is only S1.25 per capita
per annum as against the average Ameri-
can consumption of liquor of $21 per
capita. kansas has quit, and quit good
and hard" says Mr.. White.

A rural vacation" is the Wilson ad-
ministration's latest proposed plan for
the thousands of workmen who have
been thrown out of employment by the
general Industrial depression. For a
while, Mr.. Wilson said the general slump
which follow ed the passage of the Dem
ocratic tariff law was merely ''psycholo-
gical." Now, through Secretary Wilson,
of the Department of Labor, the admin
istration admits there are men who need
work. The way for them to get it, says
the Secretary is to go to Kansas and
Missouri ana work in the harvest fields.
Skilled workmen in the iron and steel in
dustry out of employment byreason of the
Democratic tariff law opening American
markets to the products of cheap foreign
labor, say it is not rural vacation" they
want, but chance to stay with their
families and support them, which the
present industrial condition has made it
impossible for them to do. No rush for
Wilson's popular excursion to Kansas
harvest fields has been reported, as yet
