BOY INJURED BY GUN.

While he was hunting in Steptoe
valley last Sunday, Alvin Kline,
messenger boy for w. B. Merrill, a
foreman in the smelter end, acct
dentally shot himself through the
foot with a twenty-five caliber rife.
The bullet passed through the big
toe, and lodged in the fleshy part of
the foot.
The injury is extremely painful and
the attending physician is confident
that the accident will not result in
the loss of a toe. Although the un-
fortunate lad lives on Clark street
in Ely. he is being cared for at the
home of his brother. Elmer E. Kline
of McGill.
Kline and several of his young
friends had arranged for a hunting
trip last Sunday, and were riding in
the direction. where they believed
that game would be plentiful. Kline
had the end of the gun barrel rest
ing on the foot, and felt secure that
no danger would befall him.
He had neglected to fasten the
safety and while holding the gun in
that position the weapon a dis
charged. Friends of the youth as
sert that Kline is unusually careless
when handling firearms, and de.
clare that the mishap is due to his
utter recklessness.

The Stricken BsIgians.


1t was to be expected that the pa
pers of the land would be flooded
with contributions from readers crit
icising the wholesale distribution of
American funds abroad. These writ
ers, generally anonymous. profess to
believe that charity begins at home
and that our own poor and suffering
should receive first care. Up to a
certain point this argument is logi-
CAL Wherever we can find at home
people actually suffering agonies it is
manifestly our duty 10 succor them.
On the other hand where can we dis
cover cases among our poor as a
body where the suffering even ap-
proaches that of the innocent Belgian
people, the women and children left
without husbands, fatherless, home
less, truly wanderers upon the face
of the earth?
Many of these gallant Belgian SOL
| diers have received terrible mutila-
tons because Of their wounds. They
| have lost hands, arms and legs. They
are lying helpless on the field, In
rudely improvised hospitals where
even the most serious operations are
| being performed without the aid OF
anaesthetics. The whole nation is
practically without food. No Belgian
organized charities car be Of any as
sistance for their homes, their stores
their public buildings have crumbled
before the fire of the German howit-
zers. Their supplies of food ant
clothing have been confiscated by the
Teuton invaders and they are LEFT
wandering aimlessly in their owr
conquered country. To be sure we
have many hundreds Of poor people
who are sadly in need of employ
ment but in comparatively few cases
can their suffering even be compared
to that of the stricken Belgians.

Editorial Comment
The Elections.


Indianapolis News Democratic.)
The elections of yesterday were almost
uniformly favorable to the Republican
party. Even where the Republicans did,
not win they made such large gains as to
Indicate the existence OF sentiment far
vorable to them. Undoubtedly the de-
pressed business conditions played an i'm
portant part. AS usual the administra-
ton was held responsible for these condi-
TONS There can be no doubt that this
influence operated powerfully yesterday.
But the great Republican victories were
very largely due to local causes-as In
this county and In New York state.
Wherever there had been boss rule the
| people revolted. The Tammany connec-
ton of Governor Glynn undoubtedly
weakened him. And the efforts of Sui
ger were directed wholly against the
Democrats, and they were most effective
| He was out for revenge, and he got 1t.
| It should be said further that the enor-
nous plurality for Mr.. Whitman, the Re-
| publican candidate is a direct blow at
Theodore Roosevelt, who fought Whit
man bitterly. Roosevelt's candidate
Davenport, finished fourth, even Sulzer
| beating him for third place.
There is no state in which the Republic
cans did not make large gains. Many
of the States swung back to the Repub-
lican party. Others were held by in
creased pluralities. Indiana seems to
have been carried by the Democrats by a
small plurality due to the vote of the
remnants Of the Progressive party. Ohio
is very close. The Massachusetts Demo-
Gratis elected their Governor, while Con-
necticnt returned to its old allegiance.
1t is believed that the Democrats will
| have a majority In both branches of con-
gress, though IN the house 1t will be
small. The important lesson of the cleo
lions is that henceforth the Democrats
will have to win on their own merits.
since the Progressive party. which was
SO valuable to them, has practically DIS
appeared.
There is the further question of the ef-
feet of the voting on the fortunes of the
President. We think that in several cases
| he used the great asset Of his popularity
and work in way that he should not
have done, as when he sent Mr.. Bryan
| into this State-or permitted him to come
Ito speak, not only for the national
party, but for the Cook ticket. That was
mistake. and a grievous one. Mr.. Will
son is strong with the people precisely
because they believe that he stands for
them and against the bosses. He should
not forget the obligation that rests on
him to protect the people against the
bosses. and never to line up with them.
The President suffered from the slump
that SO often comes midway of an adj
ministration, and also from depressed
business conditions But, as 1t is, be
seems certain to have friendly con-
gress. So he and his party will continue
to be responsible for whatever is done
or not done during the next two years.
On the whole yesterday was a great day
for the Republicans, though they will
have to beware OF the revolutionary ten
dency. Penrose. Payne, Mckinley and
Uncle Joe certainly have never shone as
reformers.

Uncle Sam Sends a Warship.

Did you know that America has SC
far become mixed in the war that 1t Is
to send a ship of war to Europe right
away? Well that is true. And nov
what hand do you suppose America is
to take in the war? Just what part
SHOULD a Christian nation play in
entering the European war zone at this
time? Here is the answer:
Sorting huge pyramids of packages
sent by the children of this country as
Christmas gifts to the suffering
youngsters in the war zone, hundreds
of agents for the Santa Claus ship are
now working day and night to pre-
pare it's precious cargo. When the
cruiser loaned by Uncle Sam for this
purpose casts off within week or SO,
1t is certain that she will be crammed
from stem to stern with the offerings
of many thousands of children on this
side of the water. That every tiny
victim of the foreign fight will re-
ceive some share of the toys sent by
American boys and girls upon the ar
rival of the Christmas ironclad Is
promised by the sponsors of the plan
who ask that all such packages be
sent to Pier 1, North River, New York

Gallinger's Statement

United States Senator Jacob H. CAL
niger has issued the following state
ment:
The result is not in doubt at this
hour, the indications being that I shall
be elected by plurality Of at least
$500 and that Mr.. Spaulding will be
elected to the governorship by about
5000. Both our candidates for Con-
gress are beyond question chosen,
and the indications are that every
county In the state will be Republican.
The campaign has been one of the
hardest fought that we have ever had
in New Hampshire. In. my own case
administration has been thrown
against me. aided by the undertaking
press of the entire country, and also
by Brandeis, Rublee and Norman
Hapgood. 1t was early given out from
headquarters at Washington that my
defeat must be accomplished. and
nothing has been left undone to bring
about that result. The loyalty of the
party to me throughout the State has
been one Of the pleasantest incidents
Of my life, and my reelection will
serve notice upon the country that a
man can entertain honest views along
conservative lines, without being sac
rificed through the fundamentally of
the popular vote. The election Of
MT. Sulloway in the First district is
also significant along that line. Mr..
Spaubding's plurality has been largely
increased by accessions from the Pro-
gressive party. which in this campaign
has practically disappeared as sepa-
rate organization. The outcome Of
the contest clearly demonstrates that
New Hampshire has gone back solidly
to the Republican column, and will be
found supporting the Republican nomi-
nee for president two years hence.
My gratitude to my loyal friends is
unbounded.
J. H.. GALLINGER.

last September published a remarkable
poem, and a copy is handed the Ken
nebec Journal by a friend. Here is the
poem and it's British introduction:
The Day.
The following souI-stirring poem, by
Mr.. Henry Chappell. railway porter
at Bath. is reproduced from The Lon
don Daily Express of the 26th ultimo
Mr. Chappell is known to his com
rades as the Bath Railway Poet"
but certainly poem such as this ele-
Yates him to the rank of a national
poet.
You boosted the Day. and you toasted
the Day,
And now the Day has come.
Blasphemer, braggart and coward all,
Little you reck of the numbing ball.
| The blasting shell, or the white arms
AS they speed poor humans home.
You spied for the Day, you lied for the
Day,
Monster. who asked Gods aid Divine.
Then strewed His seas with the CHASTITY
mine;
Not all the waters of the Rhine
Can wash thy foul hands clean
You dreamed for the Day. you schemed
for the Day,
Watch how the Day will go.
Slayer of age and youth and prime;
(Defenceless slain for never a erime)
Thou art stepped in blood as a hog in
slime
False friend and cowardly foe.
You have sown for the Day, you have
grown for the Day;
Yours is the harvest red.
Can you hear the groans and the awful
cries?
Can you see the heap of slain that lies,
And sightless turned to the fiame-split
skies
The CLASSY eyes of the dead?
You have wronged for the Day. you have
longed for the Day
That lit the awful flame.
tbs nothing to you that hill and plain
Yield sheaves of dead men amid the
grain;
That widows mourn for their loved ones
slain,
And mothers curse thy name.
But after the Day there's price to pay
For the sleepers under the sod,
And He you have Knocked for many a
day
Listen. and hear what He has to say:
vengeance is, mine, will repay
What can you say to God?

William Brewer and E. c. Pinkham
of Westport arrived at Bath Wednes-
| day evening from a hunting trip up
| at Lake Moxie. They were on their
way home to Westport with two deer
which they had shot and while in the
woods had lived in a canvas tent.
One evening about o'clock they heard
loud outcries proceeding from the lake
| shore and went down as far as they
could get to where two men and a boy
were making cries on the other side
of a swamp which it was impossible
| to cross. They were near enough to
| converse and learned that the party
on the lake shore had lost their way
to camp and that the boy could go
no farther, being sick and pretty
well exhausted with his tramp. The
Westport men went back to their
own camp and got out their boat
and finally rescued the party and
carried them to a sporting camp for
shelter The Westport men had
great difficulty in reaching the lost
trio, as there is 20 foot fall leading
between two lakes which they went
over, or down in their boat and it
took them from 7 o'clock until mid
night to finally reach the lost hunters.
