United States officials Pleased.

Administration officials who have
been keeping in close touch with events
in Mexico were highly gratif1ed today
that the evacuation of Vera Cruz ty
American military forces under Brig
Gen. Funston had been accomplished
without any disturbance. The fact that
American occupa ton of the Mexican
port had been ended with no untoward
incident bears out predictions of Off
cialS here.
They were pleased also over assur-
ances given by Gen. -ASuiiar. the new
military governor OF Vera Crt2. for the
safety of foreign residents in that city.
In administration circles today the
belief was expressed that with the ar
City all apprehension over the safety
of foreign residents there would end.
Fears for the safety Of British and
French subjects and their interests in
Mexico City had caused the British
and French ambassadors here to call
upon the State Department officials for
information relative to conditions in
the Mexican capital.
Advices Pessimistic.
The two diplomats had previously re-
ceived messages from the British and
French ministers at Mexico City CIV
ing a pessimistic view of the sitca. on
there. Advices to the department,
however, indicated that conditions had
improved.
The British and French ambassadors
made no request that the department
take action in the matter, as they had
been advised that American consular
representative would exercise their
good Offices in behalf of all foreign
ers in Mexico.
I-r. Jusserand' also inquired what dis
position had been made of the $1,000. 900
in customs duties collected by the
American forces which evacuated Vera
Cruz. He was informed by Acting
Secretary Lansing that the money was
taken away by Gen. Funstons forces
and no decision had been reached as to
It's disposition.
French Hold Bonds.
French bondholders have a lien on
practically all the customs duties at
Vera Cruz. One loan gave them 60 per
cent of the customs receipts, and
Huerta negotiated 4 loan giving them
the remaining SO per cent. The latter
by the Carranza government, and
French bondholders feared that If the
customs fund were given to Gen. Can
day IN the name of Carranza, the OBJ
legations would be ignored.
1t is virtually certain that until a
government is recognized in Mexico
which has arranged for an ADJUST
ment of all financial difficulties Of the
republic, the funds from Vera Cruz will
be kept by the Casted States.

A Suggestion.
ELLSWORTH, ME-, June 1, 1914.

ELLSWORTH, ME-, June !, 1914.
To the Editor of The American:
Everyone who has been in Central park,
New York, or in the Fenway between
Brookline and Boston, or in the Public
Gardens in Boston, knows what q pleas
ure and upiift come to a person uncon-
sciously IL the routine of his work carries
him through one of these beauty spots.
What was the Fenwsy few years ago?
Merely q swamp or bit Of made land.
The Fenway was laid out by an landscape
architect to besutify Boston, Brookline
and Jamaica Plain for all the people.
Every bridge is work Of art that will
endure for ages. The beautiful stone arch
that sweeps from pier to pier is a curve
that delights the eye and rests the soul.
Persons that grow up under such at
tractive surroundings are better and more
useful people.
Now that it is decided to make High
street wide, attractive street, is there
not someone in Ellsworth who is noble
enough to give the city beautiful stone
bridge to span Cards brook? A man
thinks nothing OF expanding five or more
thousand dollars for little lot and q
granite sarcophagus in the cemetery
where few persons ever see it. What
splendid monument a beautiful stone
bridge on High street would bel
At the foot of Beckwith's hill is boil
ing spring that at one time was carried to
the street and connected with a watering
trough. What a worthy work it would be
to erect granite fountain and drinking
trough, bearing the donors name, at the
foot of Beckwith's hill.
Both the bridge and the fountain should
be designed by great sculptor, or land
scape architect, as only those things that
are worthy to endure should be executed
in stone. How interesting it would be to
have people from Bar Harbor, Bangor and
Biuehiu come to Ellsworth to see the
fountain and the bridge of rare artistic
merit. 1t would draw more people OF the
right kind to Ellsworth than a smark
down saleh.
The last bridge constructed on High
street was made Of good material and
built from start to finish on two succeed
ing years, but the first attempt or the
second could not have been more crude
and ugly had the designers worked with
such aims in view. Is the bridge any
stronger for that reason?

No one can question the sincerity,
the earnestness of purpose and en-
thusiasm of the men who gathered in
Ellsworth yesterday at the pro-
gressive county convention. The
speeches OF Mr.. Gardner, the candi-
date for governor, and of Mr.. Thomp
son, the candidate for Congress from
this district, as well as those from
the floor of the convention, we're for
the most part temperate and rational.
But the Judgment Of the progressives
in attempting to bring to pass the
political reforms they advocate by
setting up a minority party, is open
to question. In spite of their declara-
ton of independence of party labels
two years ago, they are now "stand-
ing pat" on that very point-stick-
ling for the name progressive and
wasting their energy fighting for
political reforms which they can
never bring to pass as an independent
party. 1t is as futile as "absent treat
ment" for broken leg.

PAINT?

There are two good reasons for painting
often enough or even too often. One, to
look prosperous; two, to be SO.
Nothing does one more credit or gives
one more credit than paint, supplemented
OF course by what goes with it; and paint
costs nothing.
True, the first cost is IS or % gallo
put on; but it saves more than that in the
property; saves it from slow going down
mot always slow--it drops with jump
when water gets in on wood and iron.
Dry wood and iron cost nothing, kept
dry by paint.
Better paint when it needs it. Paint
never goes down in the sense of being
more profitable next year.

Here's an egg Matching record for you:
Miss Carrie Colby, of Mt. Desert Ferry,
set hen on eighteen eggs and Matched
out nineteen chicks. "Rather eggstra-
ordinary" suggests our correspondent,
who proceeds to make an eggnog of it by
adding the following milk record: George
Stewart, postmaster at North Hancock,
bought a quart OF milk from Mrs. Wal
lace E. Foss recently. After using what
was needed for cereal and coffee at break
fast, the remainder was set in pan and
enough cream was SKINNED from it to
make a whipped-cream pie. And the COW
which gave the milk boasts no aristocratic
pedigree.

The primaries are less than two
weeks away, and candidates are
strenuously active. Indications are
that larger interest is being taken
in this primary campaign than two
years ago, when it was a new thing
and many voters were a little shy of
it. They are now awakening to the
fact that this is their opportunity to
take hand in political affairs and ex-
press their opinion as to whom the
candidates shall be.

NO! Millions of dollars worth of
foreign made goods and foreign pro-
ducts are coming into the United

Deafness Cannot BE Cured

by local applications, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is
only one way TO cure deafness, and that is by
constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused
by an inflamed condition of the mucous lin
ing of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube
is indamed you have rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely
closed, Deafness is the result, and unless the
inflammation can be taken out and this tube
restored to its normal condition, hearing will
be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten
are caused by CAtarrh, which is nothing but
an inhamed condition of the mucous sur
faces.
