Hush Il Up

The Sunday raid by Constables boule
and Leclair are new advertisement of
Lewistons shame.
The responsibility for Lewston's shame
is with the Democratic party. Some of
the names are Sheriff Davis Deputy
Maliar. Mayor Brann, Judge Brann, City
Marshal McCarron, County Attorney
Hines.
The Democratic party Is disgra cing
Lewiston and Androscoggin.
The Democratic party ought to be de-
feated.-Lewiston Sun, Monday, Sept. 90.
Last week Democratic propounders
of rum trust religion bemoaned the
fate Of Lewiston. because the press of
that city and the people who come and
go are telling the truth. The Biddeford
Record, true to its lessons from the
great / am. devoted a half column
editorial to the Outrageous partisan
ship" that gives out false reports of
conditions in city for political effect
If you have seen disgusting things
in Lewiston in recent months, it is not
so-"there haint no such animal" Or,
il you know it Is so, then you should
suppress it for the good of the city's
name-and the booze slop traffic. The
things You saw at the State Fair
grounds, if told abroad, might rob the
association of the State stipend, and
also injure the booze business there
next year, for lack of a crowd.
THE advertising Of Lewiston as a
resort Of vice and crime and it's fair as
having for chief attractions fakirs,
pool sellers, gamesters and pickpockets
deserves the strong condemnation, -
the Biddeord Record says, and that
certainly ought to seal your lips.
Again the weeping rum willow of York
county sets forth:
"Of course in Lewiston these state
ments Of crime conditions in that city
are not taken seriously but they are
copied into outside papers like the
Bath times and the kennebec Journal
for partisan effect and timid and un-
thinking people in Brunswick. Augusta
and Bath who read them come to
look upon Lewiston as second
Sodom.''
We would not for moment question
the purpose Of the g owe quoted, but
AN Observant Citizen" writes the
Lewiston Journal:
1t seems that the CALLED Jade winces.

Editorial Comment
Treachery in Russia.

1t is not impossible that history is
about to repeat itself in the case of
the Russians. The comparatively easy
victory Of the Japanese over them was
largely due to corruption in military
circles and it is now claimed that their
retreat before the Berman advance is
due, not so much to lack of ammuni-
ton as to defective ammunition. Thus,
it is claimed. the whole of one lot of
shells delivered and left when Warsaw
was evacuated. We're just fraction too
large for the Russian guns but an ex-
act fit for the guns used by the leu
tonic allies

A bass drum could unfold a tale if
it could speak. This particular drum
was used August IS by the Onset Fife
and Drum Corps and to those that
knew its history it seemed to boom
out recognition to the G. A. r. vets.
Perhaps some had marched to it's deep
tones before as they paraded Onset
avenue. The drum was carried
through the Civil War by E. B. Gage
of Salem and afterward by Charles
Partridge of Stoughton, for three
years with p. T. Barnum's circus and
two years with the Primrose & West
minstrel show. Then it was sold to
Henry Davis of Dexter, Maine. who
travelled with the Whittemore & Clark
MINISTRIES for three years. after which
Charley Partridge bought it back
After a few years he sold it to his
friend Joseph r. Lucier. the noted
blind musician, and it was used eight
years in the band of Lucier's min
strels. Many soldier boys used the
drum on which to write letters home
and some few names are on the sides,
left there by the boys in blue.

Dr.. HiIIi1 Confession

Still the envious food Kept in my soul,
and would not let il forth
The Rev. DR.. Newell Dwight Hills,
noted Brooklyn preacher, successor to
Henry Ward Beecher and Lyman Alb
bott in Plymouth Church, one of the
most famous churches in America, an
author whose books on religious sub
jects have had extraordinary sales.
and Chautuaqua orator, whose fame is
second only to that of Bryan. Sunday
in his pulpit told his congregation that
his life long ambitions for wealth and
power had utterly crushed his life.
brought him to the brink of poverty,
and humbled him so that, he said, he
was not worthy to unloose the shoe
latchats Of poor worker of the
slums.
The effect upon his hearers may be
imagined. He had read a hastily
written statement barring his soul to
the people ne loved. 1t was dramatic,
ldllSl.C. his 1d'c Was vi IL hiiN
white. He was manifestly suffering
soul torture He had knelt in prayer
IN the church study before entering
the pulpit With difficulty he con-
trolled his voice, and aged men who
beard Beecher in the same pulpit,
bowed their gray heads in silent APP
peal for wisdom and justice.
To US, in this hour of human sue
oesses' and excuses. the words in
which DR.. Hills humbled himself
contain the greatest sermon of his
life We need not allude to his sur
roundings or the tendency of the
life' and its effect upon churches as
Well as every other avenue of society
How many business men, professional
men, men in every walk Of life. are
living below their ideals we need not
inquire; it is not for us to judge.
But how many are big enough to
voluntarily confess it?
What would it do to the church of
Or. Hills, TO the city of Brooklyn or
any other city. if every man actually
living below his professed ideals, sud
denly threw off the burden and stood
forth for what he is? DR.. Hills is
today square with the world and with
his conscience. He neither owns nor
owes. He has repented. He will try
to repair Read his own words at
the close of his statement;
often | have had honors offered to
me when | should have chosen soli-
tude and dwelt apart and listened to
the voice of God and tried to repent.
For years | have had growing con-
viction that a minister has no right
to make money and does his best
work without it. If. therefore. there
is anywhere in the wide land a noble
hoy studying for the Christian min
istry who has done me the honor to
read my books and sermons or to
listen to my lectures and who has
come to cherish a secular idea of the
Christian ministry, let me say to him
deplore that ideal and that my
latest. deepest thought is that there
are home missionaries and foreign
missionaries and social settlers and
neighborhood visitors whose very shoe
latchets l am not worthy to stoop
down and unloose.'

Senator John w. Weeks to saw that
he will run for the Presidency next
year if the people want him. All
through an honorable political career
which in its beginning had no higher
ambition than to become Governor of
Massachusetts. he has waited always
for an unmistakable call to serve. rath-

invariably he has done good service in
the House and in the Senate.
