Maine of late years has been develop
ing quite record for petitions to Con-
gress about lot cfsmatters. The pro-
moters Of propaganda for legislation are
tolerably successful in getting petitions
signed among the Maine voters. The
railroad men of Name have lately been
telegraphing and writing to Washington
in behalf Of the Cummins bill to promote
the safety Of employees upon railroads by
compelling carriers in interstate COM
merce to equip their locomotives with
safe q d suitable boilers and appurten-
ances thereto. The Cummins bill would
make the law Of tebruary II. 1911, zap
ply to and include the entire locomotive
and tender and all parts and appurten-
ances thereof. 7"
The Brotherhood of Locomotive En-
gineers, United Order of Railway Con-
ductors and kindred orders in Maine are
urging their Senators and Representa-
tives to support the proposed legislation.
They seem to be making Systematic
campaign in behalf of this hill. It prob
ably will not be enacted into law at this
session of Congress.
New Hampshire and Vermont people
keep pace on about the same lines with
the Maine people in the sending of petit
tons to Washington. An outcropping
of petitions from one State is almost
certain to be followed shortly by flow
of petitions from the other two States.

Gov-elect Curtis will be inaugurated at
Augusta today and there is naturally
much speculation as to what he will say
in his address, and particularly as to pro-
hibition. The Portland correspondent of
the Bangor Commercial says:
Some of the warm personal friends OF,
the governor-elect say that he wants the
law enforced and that he intends to have
it. He does not believe in the prohibi-
tory law, but as long as such q law re-
mains on the statute books he believes
that it should be enforced.
That is the customary Democratic de-
claration before election to office; but
the Democratic officials who have even
made pretence Of enforcing the pro-
hibitory law are as scarce as white black
birds. Gov. Curtis may be different.

This is No. /, volume 81, of The Re-
publican Journal, and begins the 37th
year of the writer's service as editor.
These anniversaries come around so rap
idly now that they seem almost matter
of course. with little to be said that has
not been said many times before. When
The Journal completed it's fiftieth year
the late William Henry Simpson, for %
years the editor, observed the semi-cen-
tennial with a>review Of the fifty years
that had passed since the first issue of
The Journal in February, 1929. Who will
thus commemorate the centennial? Not
the present writer, who will have passed
away long before that time. and who
would gladly now turn over his duties to
another after 81 years labor in the news
paper field.
1t is fitting that we should here ex-
press our appreciation of the many
staunch friends of The Journal, at home
and abroad, and of the contributors who
give the paper distinction above that
of any other newspaper of it's class that
has come to our notice. That their con-
tinued support, their words of approval
and their valued favors are highly appre-
ciated goes without the saying. and in
the coming year. as in the past, there
will be earnest endeavor to merit them.
To all our readers and patrons, at
home and abroad, The Journal wishes a
happy and prosperous New Year.

the old paper, and miss still more the
frail little man with the big heart, the
brave and optimistic spirit, who having
completed his earthly task was called up
higher. The mechanical and Topographic
cal changes have, however, brought no
change in the kindly, helpful tone which
characterized the Register under Broth

New York Aug. 25.-Richard (Rube)
Marquard, left handed pitcher, was
sold today by the New York Nation
ais to the Toronto Club of the In
ternational League. Under the terms
of the transaction, the Giants are to
get Pitcher Herbert from the Cana
dian team. It is understood that all
major league clubs waived claims to
Marquard because of their unwilling
ness to pay the high salary which his
contract calls for. This salary will
undoubtedly be paid off by the two
clubs. Marquard declared his unwill-
ingness to join the Toronto Club and
wants his unconditional release.
Remarkable Record
Marquard came to New York in
1908 when $1,000 was paid to the In
dianapolis Club for him. He did not
play much until 1911, when he began
to develop. and the next year made
a record by pitching 10 straight vic
tories. Last season he defeated Pitts
burgh in 81 innings the longest game
ever PLAYED in the National League.
The Few Yorks also announced the
purchase Of Catcher Robert Schang
from the Pittsburgh Nationals for the
waiver price. He is brother of Wal
ter Schang, catcher OF the Philadel-
phia Americans.
