The refusal Of Great Britain to al
low foodstuffs to go to German civil
population while it places diplomatic
relations in strained position with
this country, was not unexpected. Eng
land is not going to lose any chance to
subjugate her powerful foes even II 1t
means overriding of few points in
international law The United States
must be guided by the decisions OF the
first sea power is the essence of the
note replying to the demand for better
treatment of neutral shipping. 1t is
no time for hysteria and the President
is not going to take any snap judgment
The American people can feel assured
that no war will come if it can be
avoided by any kind of diplomatic eva
sion. There is one thing that America
can be thankful for at least and that
is the calm judgment OF Wilson is
holding down the passions of the pop

Mexico will not become a settled civ
ilized nation until it has been placed
under the iron hand of some greater
nation. fractional leaders will sue
coed other fractional leaders until real
peace will become out of the question
under the present conditions. Mexico
is suffering today from too many So
called patriotic leaders. A firing squad
from some good strong nation would
be the greatest boon to that country.

The intervention of the United States,
once undertaken will no doubt be mis-
understood until the future reveals to
that misguided bunch something of the
real purposes back of such steps. Any
steps now taken will appear to them
as did the occupation of Cuba and the
Philippines to the citizens OF those
countries. 1t is hard to convince any
nation that stronger nations can be
generous.

Marine Matters.

The terrible wreck of the steamer
Portland, nearly II years ago, is re- call
ed by section of a life preserver mark
ed with the steamers name drifting
ashore recently near Beach Bluffs, Mass
William H. Strout. Maine shipping
man, bought Oct. 25th at U. S. Mar
shall sale in Boston the three-masted
schooner Samuel B. Hubbard for $1325.
The Hubbard was abandoned Oct. 9Th
off Highland Light and later towed to
Boston by the tug Sadie Ross with a
prize crew of four fishermen ABOARD. She
was lumber laden and bound from In
gramport, N S., to New York. The
consignees of the lumber settled the sal
wage claim some time ago.
Three of the large coal carrying yes
sells have just been chartered for off
shore voyages at figures that will! make
their fortunate owners happy with
visions of fat dividends. The fve-mast-
ed schooner Cora F. Cressy, which has
been anchored in Boston harbor several
weeks after delivering a coastwise car
go, will load IS, 900 cases of oil for Rio
Janeiro at IS cents per case, the freight
icy amounting to nearly 100000. The
master Edward J. Lawrence is to
load about 5000 tons of coal at Norfolk
for Barcelona, SPAN, at $40 per ton,
while the fve-master HarWood Palmer
will load over 1000 tons of coal at
Chesapeake Bay port for Lisbon, Portu-
gal, at practically the same rate as the
Lawrence, the figures being about the
highest ever paid in the coal carrying
trade. The Palmer on this trip will be
commanded by Capt. Newcomb, former
~ of the schooner James w, Elwell.
The Coastwise Transportation Com
pany of Boston has ordered 12,000-t ton
steamer from the New York Shipbuild-
ing Company of Camden, N j., with
which it already had contracted for six
boats. The ship will be the largest of all.
Still another contraction a 9000ton
steamers contemplated. At the COM
pany's Office it was said, however, that
nothing would be done al present on this
because of the revival Of the agitati
for government ownership, which the
Coastwise people say would mean danger
Gus, if not disastrous competition. This
agitation for federal ownership will hold
back many contracts and shipping men
generally will hesitate on some preten-
tious building programs as result of
Secretary of the Treasury McAdoo's
speech in favor of the government again
trying to put through Congress plan
to buy steamers. Six steamers were con-
tracted for some months ago by this COM
pany and the Pocahontas Navigation
Company. All are either built or beng
built at Camden. The first to be finished
was the Franklin of 5000 tons, which is
on the way to the Mediterranean with a
consignment of coal loaded at Baltimore
a few days ago. The Plymouth, of SINH
lar tonnage, has left for Baltimore to
load coal for Alexandra, Egypt. The
Virginian of 5000 tons, was launched Oct.
23rd, and will 20 into commission about
Nov. 18th. The other steamers, each of
5000 tons, are expected to be ready or
Dec. 18th and Jan. 18th. Another ship
of 1000 tons will be ready early IN the
year. The 12,000-ton ship just started
will be general cargo carrier.

THE WILDER WILL CASE.

A case pertaining to the will of Charles
w. Wilder of Boston was heard in the
Belfast Municipal Court Oct. 18th.
Mr.. Wilder left a farm in Searsmont
to his son, William B. Wilder, in trust,
the trustee being another son, Frank L.
Wilder. The property was for the use
of William b. Wilder while he lived and
in case of his death to 60 to his wife,
Mrs. Minnie Wilder. If she died or re-
married it was to 60 the children of Will
liam B. Wilder.
DWilliam B. Wilder and his wife were
divorced, having no children. William
B. Wilder married again and adopted
son, Walter Wilder. He died and his
second wife has been in possession of the
property, claiming to be the legal heir of
William B. Wilder.
The trustee, Frank L. Wilder, brought
suit to GUST her from the premises, claim
ing that Walter Wilder, the adopted son,
is the legal heir.
Judge Lord ruled in favor of the plain
tiff and ordered that theddefendant, who
has married again and is now Mrs. Es-
tella Butler, vacate the premises.
The case will probably 60 to the Law
Court.

They bring from 81. Is to $1.9O. A load
or two have been known to go as high as
So, but that has not been the ruling
price. Farmers seem to want the even
