On the ACCESSIBILITY of Being
Up-To-Date

Choosing the wise course as to pub
lie expenditure consists IN nndipg a
golden mean between extravaganza
and parsimony. Reckless investments
In non-essentials are bad enough, but
no worse than moss backed n'g-
gardly policy which would keep us 81
years behind the times. We wake
lust now to find ourselves among the
very few places in New England that
continue to use the arc light Most
towns progressed in their street light
ing from darkness to kerosene then
to gas. and finally to electricity.
Skowhegan never had a gas plant, but
passed directly from kerosene to the
electric light This was in the win
ter of 1856, and the arc system then
installed moderately improved with
the passing years, is what we still
use. IL we are to continue 1t we
should make at once 10 or 20 years
contract with the Central Maine peo-
pie. This would permit them to put
these lamps in as good shape as the
arc system allows. Of course this
would give better service then we
have had but would tie us up for
decade or two to lighting system
which is thoroughly obsolete.
The lighting Company assures us
that the new nitrogen lamps would
provide larger total candle power
than we have been having without in
creased expense and moreover, a
much better distribution of the light.
OF course we shall have to pay some
thing extra If we have the ornamental
poles and cluster lighting for the
business section. We can hardly at
ford, In making the change to forego
the ornamental light, in view of the
fact that nearly every city and town
of any Importance already has them.
We should be willing to pay what we
have to secure this decidedly desir-
able improvement.

created a constant demand for his
services. He was often called out of
town to consult in difficult cases. No
patient was ever neglected or wrong
ed when under his charge. His re-
putation as a physician and surgeon
was not confined to this town or To-
cality, and he was acknowledged to
be one of the best practicing ply
sicians in Maine. In the years of
1899 and 1900, he took postgraduate
courses at Bellevue Hospital, New
York City.
On March 18th, only three weeks
ago, he was united in marriage with
Miss Nellie E. Porter of this village

son in his great sorrow, who has lost

father.

There IA No Politics In IL.

This simple and reassuring mes
sage reaches the city Of New York
from the judicial lips Of the Hon.
EIyoN X. Brown Of WATERFOWL:
There 10 no politics back of this
investigation"
The innocent. impartial and non.
political investigation which receives
this certificate Of good character from
Mr. Brown is undertaken by com
mittee Of a Legislature overwhelm-
ingly Republican in both houses.
whose majority smarts to-day under
a castigation administered to 1t for
its record Of violent partisan enact
ments, ripper legislation. greed, ex-
travagance and wastefulness.
The investigation is designed to dis
credit the administration Of the city
Of New York. to the end that its pro.
test against the exploita ton the city
has undergone at the hands Of that
majority may be deprived Of potency
and effect at the polls.
There Is no politics back Of. on
either side OF, or In front Of the in.
vestigatlon; not a bit more politics
than would he found in Republican
legi slative caucus.
