HON. G. ". HESELT0N
SAYS THIRD PARTY
PRACTICALLY

Gardiner, Me-, Nov 15.-Hon. George
w. Heselton, former State senator and
member Of the Progressive State COM
mittee from Kennebec county, is Of
the opinion that the third party in the
Pine Tree State is practically done.
1T may safely be said that as po-
ltical organization in Maine the Pro-
gressiye party cannot be maintained"
says Mr.. Heselton. 1t requires money
in large amounts to pay the legitimate
bills of the party organization in so
large a State as Maine. This money
cannot. be raised among the voters of
the Progressive party.
Its supporters, as a whole, If finan-
cially able to contribute to that pur-
pose (and most of them are no) will
not, because it is contrary to the past
political education Of the voters in this
State. They have been accustomed to
be paid for such work with money or
with political Office. The Progressive
party has neither of these inducements
in sight to offer. Therefore, l say, the
party does not simply face death as a
political organization but is practically
dead.
This, however, does not mean that
the principles which brought the party
into being are dead or forgotten. The
truth is that it has united at least 49,
900 voters as independents in thought
and action. Under normal conditions
now existing in Maine these $4,000
make the State politically doubtful
IF conditions are satisfactory the
voters of the Progressive party will
substantially return to their old polit-
ical affiliations, that is, 20 per cent will
go to the Republican party and 80 per
cent to the Democratic party Condi-
tons must, however, be satisfactory"

DO THIS FIRST YOU!

You know, and every physician
knows, that when any sickness has
passed, whether it be throat trouble,
organic disturbances, contagious dis
eases, or even severe cold, relapse
is feared, because sickness robs the
system of Natures resistance and
leaves it subject to lingering germs.
Drugs never build up worn-out
body-only food can do that, and the
/: first thing to take after any sickness is
the concentrated, .lood.making oil
food in SCOTS Emulsion, which feeds
the tissues, benefits the blood and
strengthens both lungs and throat.
Physicians prescribe SCOTS Emul-
sion after sickness. Nurses everywhere
advocate it. SCOTS is pure medicinal
food, without alcohol or drugs.

DEATH OF RAILROAD ENGINEER.
David Williams of st. Johnsbury Hal
Been III Two Weeks.

! st. Johnsbury, Nov. 29.--David Will
liams died at his home here Saturday
after two weeks of illness, following a
paralytic shock. Mr.. Williams was well
known in engineering circles, and had
been connected with the Boston & Maine
railroad for more than 20 years. Is as
division engineer of the Connecticut IL
Passumpsic. and st. Johnsbury & LAKE
Champlain divisions.
He was born in Hollyhead, North
Wales, Feb. 6, 1854, and when three
months of age his parents moved to Can
ada. He was educated in the st. Fran lis
college at Richmond, Que, and at Quebec
Military college. He served as second

for many years was engaged on construc
ton work for the Canadian Pacific rail-
road.

Vermont Forestry Department Cooper
ates with Lumber Companies.

One of the difficulties experienced by
the Vermont forestry department ha:
been to keep efficient men for the sum.
mer fire patrol and lookout work, az
well as for the more technical forestry
work During six or seven months OF
the year, while there is danger of for
est fire, watchmen are maintained on
Cancels Hump, Stratton mountain, and
other high points, who are constantly
on the lookout for fires. In other local
tiles patrolmen are employed. During
wet seasons these men are used in sur
veying and estimating the state forests
and in other lines of technical work. The
fire prevention work is made possible
largely by cooperation with the federal
convention. Vermont received last
week $500 from the government for
the protection of the navigable water
sheds. While there are several lines OF
forestry work which these men could
pursue in the winter, the lack of funds
available for the forestry department
makes it impossible to hold them. In
this way good men no sooner become
trained than they are obliged to seek
permanent employment elsewhere. The
present season, however, the forestry
department has developed a scheme Of
cooperation whereby these men can be
taken over and paid during the winter
months by lumber companies. So far
as the regular force Of patrolmen goes
the department stands ready TO recon-
mend them TO lumber companies either
for marking the trees which should be
cut; for inspecting the cutting; OF for
scaling logs. Mr.. Chamberlin, who is the
Waterman on Csmels Hump during the
summer, has already secured work for
the winter in this way on an operation
near North Duxbury. Under the direc-
ton of the forestry department he
marks the trees which are TO be cut; in.
spects the cutting 20 see that IL is prop
erly carried out; and scales the logs on
the sideways. BY securing permanent
employment for men In this way, the
forestry department win not only be able

gers for itself, but win be in a position
TO help lumber companies 70 secure better

day--in this interval Of crisp airs and
lively winds the earth wears the tawny
look of warrior who has fought through
the heat OF the battle and now is going
into winter quarters in the trenches. The
exhilirating atmosphere brings the no.
madic spirit OF our far forebears tingling
into every nerve, and the sensitive, who
react instinctively to the moods OF ma
ture, are prone to become dissatisfied
with the familiar scenes; they would
walk for miles into the unknown, see
strange horizons, go exploring as did the
pioneers, continue on the far quest as
did Tennyson's Ulysses. The birds have
been flying in serried ranks across the
skies, high and almost mute, seeking
their quarters in the South, on a definite
errand bent. Gulls are flying once more
about Boston harbor. The winds play
curious pranks with the clouds and pile
them in fantastic masses which vary ey-
cry minute. The hunter goes into the
woods and the open, the autumn sun
gliding his gun barrels, az much to en-
Joy the tramp and the weather as to
seek for game. The breeze upon the
cheek, the gaps of blue amid the white
clouds, the brilliancy of the sunset, the
piled masses of the harvest, even the
fading leaves that whirl over the ground,
they are all allIring. 1t Is time to
be outdoors. Go early or go late, snatch
the half holiday for it, be thankful for
\ full day off, and get a Whit of the
glory of the season before it is too late.
