Seacoast Mission Work

Rev. Alexander P Macdonald, Of
the Seacoast Mission, is looking for
ward to q winter of activity. he now
has tn mission boat Sunbeam at
Cranberry Islands where it is under
going the changes necessary to fit 1t
for cruising in the rough waters and
the icy harbors Of Winter. Dozens
of coast people living in the isolated
sections, depend almost wholly upon
the Sunbeam for medical aid and
other emergency calls during the cold
months. Mr.. Macdonald and his as
sistants are also as active in the
Winter as they are in the Summer in
seeing that the great work OF pro-
noting the spiritual welfare OF the
coast folk is kept up. 1t Is a labor
of great scope and almost endless
possibilities and the coast nissionar-
les are certainly performing 1t In a
most self-sacrifioing and thorough
manner. They deserve the cncour-
agement and the substantial support
of all Maine people for they are do
ing wonders in improving conditions
along the coast that have existed Tor
years and that have been no credit to
our State.

What Red Cross Seals Do.

Every Red Cross Christmas Seal that
is sold is real bullet in the fight against
tuberculosis. These seals last year
helped to support thousands of needy
tuberculosis patients and to give them a
chance for life. They provided for many
visiting nurses, whose hundreds of thou
sands of visits brought instruction and
cheer to numerous patients. They helped
maintain dispensaries in scores Of cities,
from the Atlantic to the Pacific, where
thousands of consumptive patients re-
ceived free treatment. aid and advice.
They provided the means to purchase mil
lions of copies of circulars. pamphlets and
other literature with which the public has
been educated about tuberculosis. They
have established and helped to maintain
more than 800 open-air schools for chill
dren who need open-air treatment. These
are just few of the ways in which the
$4,000 received last year was expended
This year s1.0OO0 900 is needed. Surely any
one can help by buying at least 10 seals

A Pathetic End.
(Toronto Globe.)

There is something inexpressibly
pathetic about the manner and the
occasion of Lord Roberts death.
How much the calling in to the fight
ing line of the Indian troops-Sfkhs
and Ghurkas-the simple, strong men
like those with whom he had spent
sixty years of his life. meant to their
old military commander and compan-
ion in ARMS can never be fully known.
One measure of his interest in these
hill men is the fact that he faced an
Indictment season to see them face ID
face. and if he had been left to chooss
the way of his departure he would
probably have preferred 70 pass while
on such a mission of good feeling. 1t
adds to the public regret that his visit
came to such an untimely end.

The Heart of America.

The mind of America is busy with
thoughts Of the European war. News
papers. magazines. and books have
placed before the reading public many
tons of opinion on the causes of the
war. the probable results. and the
moral effect of it upon civilization as
q whole. Newspapers have even can
vassed the United States to deter
mine with which side the American
people are most in sympathy.
But It is the heart Of America, not
the mind, that gives the most signifi-
cant answer to all questions one might
ask concerning Americas sympathy.
The heart of America is not with the
German government nor the English
government nor the French, nor the
Belgian-America is heart and soul
with the millions of men who are
facing the flying lead that is robbing
hundreds of thousands of homes,
stealing. with business-like precision,
fathers, brothers. sons, and lovers.
After all, what does it matter
whether this crown or that crown
shall shine in the light of victory?
The true victor in the heather con-
f1ict will be that nation which loses
the smallest number of good men.
We men Of America give heartfelt
sympathy to the Germans who are
finging themselves into the flaming
hell of battle, driven by a mistaken
cause, and we give the same kind and
equal measure of sympathy to the
English, French, Belgian, Russian. and
Austrian soldiers.
These men who are leaping at each
others threats are men, as we are
men. They love their homes. their
families, and in a frenzied. forced
passion their countries. Here in
America where we govern ourselves.

Editorial Comment.
What Will Maine Democrats Say?
portland Press.)

In a recent interview Mr.. Bryan
has declared that the Democratic
party must divorce itself from the
liquor interests If it is to win in 1916
or any other time. This information
will not be accepted with very COOL
grace by Mr.. Bryan's party organiza-
ton In this State where as far as
State issues are concerned the Demo-
cratic interests and the liquor inter-
ests are one and the same thing.
Not only has the Maine Democracy
declared for system Of licensing the
liquor traffic, but its candidates have,
as a rule, come to be recognized as the
candidates of the liberal enforce
ment element. In this county this was
true at the last election, and it was
true in other counties.
To force the Maine Democracy to
break its alliance with the liquor in
terests as Mr.. Bryan proposes would
be virtually asking 1t to break away
from its best friends, so far as the
State elections are concerned.
Whatever Mr.. Bryan may have
said about the last election when the
result was first known, 1t is apparent
from this interview that he is no long
er deceiving himself. for he admits
that the Republican party will be a
bigger factor in the presidential race
than 1t was for the Congress that has
just been elected. He sees that the
Progressive party Is a thing Of the
past as a factor worth considering In
the political situation, and that here
after 1t Is to be a strnightout fight
between the Republicans and DEM
ocrats and--as we have noted above
he proposes as the first move of the ap-
preaching battle that the Democracy
divorce itself absolutely from the
liquor interests
