The letter of Viscomte Louis de Sibour

and realistic picture of life in the

The month of November has long had
a bad reputation. Half century or
more ago Thomas Hood wrote these
lines:
No warmth, no cheerfulness, no healtnful ease,
No comfortable feel in any member
No shade, no shine. no butterflies, no bees.
No fruits, no flowers, no leaves, no birds
November!
But only a professional fault-frder
could find fault with November, 1915.
Many would consider the frosty nights

and the few storms, severe while they

It is given out semi officially from
Washington that the administration is to
let up in it's war upon the railroads, and
in view of what it has accomplished in
that line this would seem to be wise
conclusion. This war upon the railroads
has resulted in throwing thousands of
railroad men out of employment, in cur
failing train service, in depriving inves-
tors in railroad securities of dividends.
and in Gripping the railroad companies
so that they have been unable to keep up
their equipment, and there has been a
shortage of cars when needed to haul the
record crops of 1915. One big New Eng
land railroad has been driven practically
into bankruptcy, and while some of its
transactions may have been questionable
there can be little doubt but that with
the men and the millions behind it it
would have continued to pay dividends and
it's plans for development and for in
creased business would have worked out
successfully.

1t appears that Maine has a law which
specifies that when advert sing for help

must be so stated, and over in Saco the
other day man was taken into court

law, of which he was presumably in ig-

to do business of any magnitude it is
necessary to have law library, extra

merous returns called for by the Nation
