COMMON SENSE.

Longfellow could take worthless
piece Of paper and write poem on il
and make it worth SOS. 000-that's
genius. There are some men who
could write few words on a piece Of
paper and make il worth 5000. 900
that's capital. The United States can
take an ounce and quarter of gold
and make il worth $50 that's money.
A mechanic can take material worth
s. and max e it into watch springs
worth 81 900 that's skill. There is a
man in Chicago who can take fifty
cent piece of canvas, paint a picture on
it, and make it worth 81, 600 that's art.
IA Greek can take an article worth
75c and sell it for $l-that's business.
A woman could purchase a hat for 75c
but prefers one worth S27 that's foolish
ness. A ditch digger handles several
tons OF earth for 81. 80 a day that's
labor The author of this can write
check for 50. o00. 900, but it wouldn't be

Last Weeks Elections.

Maine interest in the elections held
Tuesday of last week in some eight
states was chiefly in the result in Massa
chusetts. In that state, which has been
under Democratic governor for some
years, Samuel W. Mccall, Republican,
was elected governor by plurality oil
66O6. For other Republican candidates
for state offices the plurality was consid
erably larger. The Progressive party
vote fell off to a little over 1000, and the
party thereby loses its official standing
as party.
Next in interest, If not transcending
the Massachusetts result, was the vote
of several states on the question Of WON.
an suffrage. That this would be sue
eeSsful at the present time in any OF the
states was hardly expected even by its
advocates. In fact, il was defeated ir
all states, though not by so large major
tiles as at first reported. In Massachu
sets the majority against suffrage was
1872 ,0S3. In New York, the majority
was something like 200, 700, but in Penn
sylvania 1t was only approximately
$4,000.
Statewide prohibition was rejected in
Ohio by a majority of from $4,000 tC
10000, which is about half the majority
against it last year.
A proposed new constitution in New
York state was rejected by an over
whelming vote.
Tammsny Hall elected district attor'
ney in New York city for the first time
in fifteen years.
Detroit, Mich, rejected proposition
that the municipality purchase the street
railroad lines.
Republican gains are recorded in some
states, but Maryland has apparently
gone Democratic throughout. 1t is
hardly necessary to mention that Missis
sippi is Democratic as usual.

Cole, 1t was later learned, on account
of the illness of his mother, Mrs. George
Judkins, with pneumonia, bad started
after DR.. L. W. Parady of Rumford
Point, some time In the night. As DR..
Parady's horse was tired, it was arrang.
ed by telephone that Cole should come
after him. DR.. Parady crossed the ferry
between Rumford Point and Rumford
Corner, and waited on the Corner side OF
the river. He thought he heard an au.
tomobile not far away, but no one ap
peared, and the doctor after waiting an
hour recrossed the river and returned
home.
The car which Cole was driving bad
turned completely over, pinning him be-
meath it in such way that his neck was
broken, and death was doubtless instan.
taneous. On the front of the car was
hung an ordinary lantern taking the
place of the headlights.

examiner, was summoned, and investi
gated. He reports the death as the re.

proper headlights and the fact that Cole
was under the influence of liquor.
