Remarkable Logic
(Springfield Republican,

(SpTiHSHelu INepupiieduj
Rather remarkable is the logic of the
American newspaper man. James
Creelman, now in England, who was
interviewed the other day by the Lon
don Chronicle in regard to the Next
can situation. The Mexicans, he
thinks. should feel confidence in the
United States:
1t did not need President Wilson's
assurance that the United States would
never annex another foot of territory
on the American hemisphere. The re-
cent history of the United States and
the unmistakable attitudes Of the
American people toward wars of con-
quest ought to be assurance enough.
Our reluctance to intervene is also due
to the knowledge that if we once went
into Mexico it would be very hard,
in the face of responsibilities that
would be assumed, to get out again.
In short, Mexicans should welcome
armed intervention, because Ameri
cans are reluctant to make such inter
vention for the reason that once in il
would be hard to get out.

Will Smoking Be Regulated?

Boston AuNtltiSCio
Each day it becomes more apparent
that the employers of the country are
on the side of non-use of alcohol. The
order which Secretary Daniels issued
to the officers of the Navy was similar
to a number of similar orders, which
have been issued to responsible en-
ployees of large industrial concerns.
Unless an employer has an interest IN
the consumption of alcohol, he is very
sure to take the side of those who
would regulate its use. The support
which has been given Reyivalist Sun
day has been. in a great measure, due
to the good effect which his campaigns
have had upon employees who former
ly spent much time in dissipation. Ana
now the question comes as to whether
employers will put their prohibition
upon smoking as we'll as upon drink
ing. Recent investigations have indi-
Gated that large number Of the fires,
which cause tremendous annual loss to
the monied interests of the country. are
due to the carelessness of smokers,
Further, the efficiency experts claim
that the use of tobacco slows up the
user 1t may be that the employers
of the country will set their faces
against tobacco and it's use by the men
they hire. The demon nicotine will
be hunted, as soon as the demon rum
has been routed.

Just one-hundred and twenty
five years ago today was the first
presidential inauguration in the
United States. The ceremony took
place on the balcony of Federal
Hall in Wall Street, New York.
which city was then the federal
capital. Dawn of the inaugura-
ton day was greeted with salvo
of artillery and practically all of
the 10000 inhabitants of New York
and many visitors from other cit
les thronged the streets. The
church bells were rung and at noon
a troop of horse, two companies
of grenadiers and Highlanders in
kits escorted the president-elect
in a coach of state to the scene
of the ceremonies. Livingston,
chancellor of New York state, adj
ministered the oath of office. Wash
ington's feryent response was met
with cheers Long live George
Washington, President of the Uni
ted States" from thousands of
threats. From Federal Hall, Wash
ington went to the neighboring
st. Paurs church to attend divine
services. Artillery roared and bells
rang throughout the afternoon
and evening. At dusk bon-fires and
fireworks lighted up the streets
and gala balls were held, which
continued into the following May
day.

Now


Today on the steps of the Uni
ted States Sub Treasury building,
the exact spot where Washington
stood when he took the oath of Of
fee, stands his bronze statue,
whose legs have been worn shiny
by the urchins of Wall street who
have tried to climb up to touch
the bronze hand of the father of
the country. The point today is
called the monetary nerve center
of the country. The trees which
shaded the narrow thoroughfare in
Washington's day have all gone,
and all about are buildings whose
stony monotony towers several
hundred feet above the scene. The
land where Washington stood sold
at $275 a square foot at that time;
today it is valued at $500 square
foot, and is one of the most valu-
able tracts in the world. The build
ings about it are said to represent
a real value of $500, 100000 and in
their vaults there ordinarily re-
poses about a sixth of all the
money in the United States.
A stones throw away, st. Paul's
church stands with its back to
Broadway preserved just as it was
when Washington knelt there for
his first prayers as President of
the United States.

An Open Letter.

Editor Kennebec Journal:
am sending you an open letter to
the chairman of county committee OF
the Progressive party, in answer to
one asking for my cooperation You
are at liberty to use it If it will be of
any help to the cause you represent:
Yours truly,
EDWARD WING.
Mr.. Wings open letter follows:
Oakland, Me-, April q, 1914.
Mr.. Chas. A. Milliken,
Dear Sir:-Yours Of the 21st at
hand. It has been our custom to give
to our Governors IL we approved of
their administration a second term.
look upon Mr.. Haines' administration
as one of the cleanest and most faith
full we have had for many years and
/ expect to lend what influence I may
have for his reelection. / am disap-
pointed in the Progressive party of
this State. Gov. Haines was elected
by the united support of the Republic
can and Progressive parties and after
having given us such a clean admins
tration he should have had the sup
port of both parties for reelection.
To divide is to give our common OPP
ponents a great advantage and may
mean to us defeat. I am not only dis
appointed in the Progressive party in
its failure TO support Gov. Haines but
in its platform. 1t does not advocate
prohibition as a State or nation when
as a progressive party it should have
spoken in no uncertain terms. Today
l believe the Republican party after
having, through some of its blunders,
learned wisdom is still the party of
progress in the State of Maine.
Yours truly,
EDWARD WING

The claim is made by Nicholas Kra-
sovsky, formerly chief of the secret
police at Kieff, Russia, that he has
located in New York City the two
murderers of the hoy. Andrew Yushin-
sky, in March, 1911, near Kieff, the
case the Russian government has in
sisted was Jewish ritual murder.
KrasovslSy was sent here by wealthy
men to solve the mystery. He says
the man and woman who committed
the deed have agreed to return to
Russia and tell their story, provided
they are promised protection. He also
claims that the boy was murdered by
thieves, who feared his evidence
against them.

The Maine Potato Embargo.

Maine farmers should not De
alarmed by the washington announce
ment of Tuesday, that a federal quar-
antine against Maine potatoes goes
into effect on August /. In localities
where powdery scab has not appeared
1t would now seem that farmers might
proceed with their planting with even
more confidence than before. Federal
inspection will be, undoubtedly, rigid
but fair. The embargo is likely to re-
duce acreage where the scab prevails,
in Maine and elsewhere, and thus
create a shortage that will mean high.
er prices.
We hope Kennebec Journal readers
will not lump to the conclusion that
their fertilizer, seed and preparations
for this years planting have been
needless expenditure. The govern
ment will be fair and honest with
Maine producers. If you have no
powdery scab in your farm, seed or To-
cality, go ahead in confidence.
But make careful examination and
INQUIRY as to possibility of disease be-
fore you go to any more expense.
A warning has been sent out in the
Weekly Letter from the Agricultural
Department at Washington, to have
Maine seed potatoes reexamined. 1t
follows:
On account of the recent discovery
of violations of the Maine quarantine
regulations, all purchasers Of Maine
seed potatoes are warned to have their
