County Y. NJ. C. A. Work.


One of the most prominent activities in
the work for the past week was the
baseball game between Islesford and
Cranberry Isles, played at Islesford.
The game resulted in a victory for the
Islesford team. Cranberry Isles brought
over boat loads of rooters, and the home
team was well represented. Another
game will be played soon.
Plans are being rushed for a big picnic
dinner, athletic meet and play day at Ber-
nard on the Fourth.
An interesting and instructive lecture
was given by Mr.. Davies this week at Seal
Harbor, Islesford and Gran berry Isles, on
a trip across Canada from coast to coast
The lecture was illustrated by about 100
slides.
At Seal Harbor this week the boys met
at the ball field and spent most of the
afternoon in cutting out alders that have
grown up in the out-fieid. A scrub game
of ball was then enjoyed.
The county secretary is giving some of
his time toward Scout work that has been
carried on in Seal Harb Dor in previous
summers. An interesting program is
mapped out for the summer work. MIR.
McCrae is in charge OF the work.

thusing the tagging interest of the
progressives, it is now stated that the
big chief of the bull moose party is
not coming.
From the manner in which Col.
Roosevelt makes the announcement
that he is not going into the cam
paign, 1t is very apparent that he
never promised to come. After de-
scribing the condition of his throat,
which will prevent his taking part in
the political campaign, he says:
"This is my answer to those who
acanted me to go into a campaign. If
anyone expected me TO do so, cannot
now" This does not sound like the
regrets of a man compelled to cancel
an engagement made. 1t is more like
the sigh of relief of a man who was
being forced into campaign he did
not relish, and the impression is grow
ing that this is just the situation in
which Col. Roosevelt found himself.
He is not one to waste energy in a
forlorn cause.
The announcement was made after
he had paid a visit to Sir st. Clair
Thompson, professor of laryngology
and physician for diseases of the nose
and throat in Kings college hospital,
in London. DIR. Thompson, after a
thorough examination, pronounced
the verdict that Col. Roosevelt must
not attempt to speak in the open air
or indulge in extended speech max
ing under any circumstances for sew
eral months.
The ex President accepted the stu
alton cheerfully.

We print this week, on page 8, a de-
tailed table of the vote of Hancock
county by towns in last weeks pri-
maries. The amount of work in
volved in preparing such table is
considerable, and while THE AMERI-
CAN prides itself on thus presenting
to its readers a complete and correct
tabulation of the returns, it takes to
itself only part of the credit. We
wish here to acknowledge our in
debtedness to the town clerks of Han
cock county who SO promptly and SO
accurately gave us the returns. The
people of the county have come to
look to THE AMERICAN for this COM
plete tabulation of returns at each
election; THE AMERICAN, in turn,
looks to the town clerks, and they
have never failed us.

Bull moose leaders in New York
admit that the progressives there are
"more panic than party" as re-
suit of the disruption of the ranks by
Pinchot's attack on Perkins. With a
republican progressive coalition al
ready under way to control New
York city and state, it is openly pre-
dicted by progressives themselves
that similar tactics will be employed
to redeem the nation from blunder-
ing democratic government.

The Federal Reserve board, as
finally made up, is composed of four
officeholders, one large contributor
to the Wilson pre- convention cam
paign fund, and two chamberlain
intolerable deal of politics to half
pennyworth of finance. Everyone
wishes that the new currency system
may prove successful. Its success or
failure largely depends upon the Re-
serve board, which has been armed
with extraordinary powers. The
board, dominated by Office holders,
with four of it's members political ap-
pointees of the Wilson administra-
ton, is rendered commonplace by the
submersion of expert financial know
ledge in officialdom. 1t represents
President Wilson more than anybody
else, its majority being made up of
men who were his political appointees
before they entered it's membership.
In effect it will operate under the
shadow of White House influence,
and it will be as strong as President
Wilson proves himself as a director
of finance, and no stronger.-Boston

Eft tn, Brute.

And now President Wilson has felt
the prick of Senator Tillman's pitch
fork.
sit staggers my common sense"
said the democratic senator from
South Carolina, in discussing Presi-
dent Wilson's demand for repeal of
the Panama canal tolls, land have
been unable to understand just why
he projected the fight on his party at
this time.
sit is of great Importance to the
democratic party to control the House
at the next election, and believe the
President should have kept quiet
until that election was over. 1t would
have been the best craftsmanship as
well as the best politics to have done
so.
''tintil this issue was pressed to the
front, the course of democracy had
been onward and upward" Senator
Tillman declared, land the opposi-
ton was hopeless and helpless. There
was wisdom in silence, and it would
have been golden. There are SO
many things of more Importance that
the democrats ought to do that must
say, in my opinion, it was great
blunder on the part of the President.
The democratic party, instead of pre-
senting a solid, united front, is split
into contending factions"

The Price We Paw.

Hon. w. E. Humphrey, Of Washington, in a
speech in New York June Is.
Every day that Woodrow Wilson has
been in the White House the business of
this nation has decreased more than
twenty million dollars. This is the price
of democracy.
But we are told that all this is merely
psychological. The President has assured
the country that what it needs is more
legislation; that there is nothing wrong
with democratic administration, or with
democratic laws. The only difficulty is
that the business men of the nation are
too stupid to appreciate the blessings that
have been bestowed upon them. The only
remedy proposed is to give them more of
what they Rave already received. The
President has served notice on the
country that Congress is to be kept in
session all summer to enact further legis-
lation that will practically destroy what
little business is left.
1t may be psychological, but it is a
truth that no candid man can deny that
every day that Congress stays in session
business grows less. The greatest bless
ing that this Congress could possibly be-
stow upon the country would be to ad-
journ and never meet again. There is this
slight consolation, however, that while
Congress is in session destroying the bust
ness of the country it is also destroy
ing what remains of the now discredited
democratic party. The business men of the
nation have appealed in vain to the Presi-
dent to stop further legislation, but his
reply has been that they simply imagine
that they are being injured.
