Ellsworth is likely to lose its shoe
factory. A brief statement OF the
situation is made in our news columns.
The managers promise a more COM
plete statement of the situation
through THE AMERICAN before max
ing definite move, but We may say
that the managers feel at present
that the obstacles in the way Of q
successful continuation OF the BUSH
ness here seem insurmountable. Els
worth has already felt the benefits Of
this industry; Ellsworth people have
learned to know Mr.. Ault and Mr..
Williamson of the company, as they
have long known Mr.. Russell, as
clean-cut and honorable business
men, and gentlemen. 1t would be .
distinct loss to the city to have these
men leave; the loss Of the factory
would be felt financially by the bust
ness men. We hope it is not too late
to save the factory for Ellsworth.

The last legislature made provision
for special commission to thor
ougbly investigate the lobster indus
try OF Maine, and it's relations with
other states, with the view Of recon.
mending legislation OF the greatest
benefit to the industry in this State.
The lobster industry is very impor-
tant one on the Maine coast, and each
session of legislature brings many de-
mands for legislation affecting it.
The trouble has been that the inter-
ests OF different sections were often
in conflict, and the pulling and haul
ing Of many men OF many minds have
resulted in no legislation at all, or
legislation unsatisfactory to many.
1t is hoped that the commission may
after Investigation, be abba to recon-
mend legislation which win meet the
approval OF lobstermen OF all sec
tions, and benefit the industry as a
ishole. Hancock county, as the lead
ing county in the whole United States
in the lobster industry, rightfuliy has
q place on this commission, Repre-
sentative Joseph G. Harmon, Of Ston-
ington, having been named last week
by Governor Curtis. The other
members OF the commission are John
L. Donohue. OF Rockland, and Eben
T. Lewis, Of Boothbay Harbor.

At Augusta last week boy climbed
q steel tower, touched live high
tension electric wire, and was in
stantiy killed. at Madison two days
later five-year- boy climbed a
thirty .five-foot pole, touched a wire
and received fatal shock. The ac-
cidents emphasize the danger shat
Turks in the electric power wires.
There have been instances in Han
cock county where the high tension
wires running from the big dam at
Ellsworth have been tempered with,
fortunately without, as yet, fatal re-
suits. The accidents also suggest q
precaution which should be taken by
the power companies. No pole car
rying powerful electric wires should
be provided with spikes within easy
reach, by short climb, OF venture
some or thoughtless boy. The age of
one OF the victims of last week, only
ave years--too young to realize the
danger-shows that this matter can
not safely be left to the caution or in
telligence Of the boy.

The third American note on sub
marine warfare was presented at
Berlin Friday by Ambassador Gerard.
Germany has been informed 1t is the
intention OF the United States to re-
gard as deliberately unfriendlyn any
repetition by the commander of Ger
man naval vessels of acts in contra
vention OF American rights. The
United States announces that it viii
continue to contend for the freedom
of the seas ''from whatever quarter
violated, without compromise and at
any COST. In official and diplomatic
quarters the communication was re-
ceived as the strongest and most en-
phatic procurement that has come
from the Washington government
since the beginning Of its correspon-
dence with the belligerents of Eu-
rope. The German press, naturally,
comments unfavorably, even bitterly,
on the note. The note does not,
necessarily, require an answer from
Germany.

The European war has served some
OF the purposes of protective tariff
and has created an enormous demand
for American production, bat no ma
ton can easily base its economic
policies upon the assumption that
other nations will continue q war in
definitely. The tremendous republic
can gains in the last election, when
the Overwhelming democratic ma
jority Of nearly $50 in the House was
almost completely wiped out, makes
the election Of republican House
next year foregone conclusion. But
the Senate must also be republican.
This Is to be the slogan OF the next

publican President and House OF
Representatives. The political COM
plexion of the United States Senate
must be changed II the repubii-

Capt. NJ. v. Bsbbidge, of Colts island,
writes: u was very much interested in
the article in THE AMERICAN July IA,
saying that Mrs A. T. Small, OF sgnset,
has in her possession a relic OF the war OF
ISIS ball weighing u. pounds. My
son, A. j. Babbidge, OF bar Harbor, has
in his possession a cannon ball picked up
by my grandfather, Courtney Bsbbidge,
in the field near the shore now owned by
the heirs OF the late Capt. e. y. Moore,
that weighs just 81 pounds, and Is over
three inches in diameter. 1t was fred,
without doubt,in the engagement on Bass
Harpor bar. My father said that, from
where they lived on Swans Island, they
could see the blaze from the guns
NJ. p. Giipatrick, = Lamoine boy who
has been in the hotel and restaurant bust
ness in Milwaukee, Wis, for the past
twelve years, has recently purchased TIE
Waiworth hotel at Whitewater, Wis, and
is remodeiing 1t into thoroughly up-to-
date metropolitan hotel. He will con-
tinue his business in Milwaukee. Mr..
Gilpatrick went West in 1877, and 10
several YEATS rs EOnHtCkcQ WIN AAI-
shall Field & Co., Chicago, and later with
Gimbel Brothers and the McCailum Hous
Furnishing Co. His old Hancock count e
friends are pleased to know of his grow
ing success in the hotel business. His
sister, Mrs. Mary F. Pettingiil. is with
him at the walworth, where she is max
ing her home.
The plan to stock the Cherryfield plains
with beef cattle again hobs up. The
idea is not q new one, having been
advanced many years ago. The depart
ment of agriculture declares that the land
is well adapted to the purpose. # will be
remembered that the railroads two or
three years ago bonded q large tract Of
perimentai farming there, with the view
of colonizing the section. The expert
ments were eminently successful, but
financial disturbances in railroad circles
upset the plan. Now, 1t is said, q Port
land man has revived the cattle ranch
scheme, and has interested western CATTLE
men in the project. Already, it is stated,
buyers have been engaged to purchase 200
head of cattle as an initial herd, but q
temporary halt has been called because of
the European war. A soil expert from
Washington is quoted as reporting, after q
careful examination, that not only was
the land good for crops, but that the 49,
600 acres bonded would support 5000
cattle summer and winter, as aside from
cultivated crops enough blue grass could
be raised along the Narraguagus river to
feed them through the winter. The
IS 600 acres involved is only q fraction OF
the land in that county and in Hancock
county that can be used for similar
purpose.
