union to the farmers says:
The Maranacook Farmers Union
has entered upon its second year Of
active life, and has demonstrated the
Importance of this organization. A
$4,000 business is a good beginning for
this little union and proves the saying

The most important step to be
taken, and which will establish the
future success Of this organization, is
the erection of the proposed storage
house at the Depot. Let every farmer
who feels the Importance of co-opera-
ton give financial aid to this enter
prise and secure storage room for ap-
pies. potatoes. hay or any marketable
crop. This should and can be builded
in season to use this fall, and when
completed be entirely paid for by
those who will use it. ~

MAN WHO HELD UP
GARDINER MERCHANT
WANTED IN LEWISTON

Ike Perckey the man who created
something of sensation in Gardi-
ner on Monday, was unable to furnish
bonds and was taken to the county
Jail at Augusta on Tuesday. In the
forenoon the chief of the Lewiston
police and George B. Michaud, the
Lewiston harness dealer who Perckey
interviewed on Saturday last in a
manner almost identical with the one
used with Mr.. Emerson, arrived in
to Augusta, where he identified Perc-
Key as the man who held him up. It
is announced that Mayor Brann Of
Lewiston had offered a reward Of 800
for the arrest of the man. Chief Pot
ter telephoned to Lewiston Tuesday
forenoon that it IVES probable that the
man wanted in Lewiston was the one
captured in Gardiner. If the report
of the reward offered is true it would
seem as though it would go to Officer
blalsdell, the man making the arrest.
