Bad Road Shifts Trade.

Editor Kennebec Journal:
I was glad to read the letter in Satur-
DAVIS journal written by A. w. Brooks,
a former resident of Augusta, in relation
to the North Belfast road and while he
has stated facts and facts only he has
done so very mildly.
The road from the east end of the
macadam to McFarlands Corner would
he a disgrace to the smallest plantation
in the State. 1 have been over some of
the different roads and some bad ones
but that is the worst
On this same Belfast road we have six
miles across our town "a small poor
town. and you cannot find as long a
piece of so rough road as you will find
on Bangor St. in the Capital city
Mr.. Brooks speaks Of the section OF
road in question being indictable. that
noint has been considered by some of
the people in this section, but has been
postponed for the present for the reason
that through the untiring efforts of pa
trolnan Candage the section of the Bel
fast road from South China to Branch
Mills has been put in first-class condition
which now gives us good road to Wat
eryille via East and North Vassalboro. tn

The Notification Address.
(Boston Herald.)

Charles E. Hughes entered the presi-
Dental campaign last night with an ad-
dress which sums up with unmistakaole
force the national issues now before the
people. 1t is in some measure a party
pronunciamento, but the chief signin-
cance Of it's well-chosen and WELL
weighted words is that OF sledge-
hammer arraignment Of the administra-
ton which no execution can evade by
asking, like the giant in the Scandina-
Wan legend, Did leaf fa1l?" Its decla-
ration Of Republican principles glides on
as a mere overture.
Mr.. Hughes aims his first blow at the
appointments, his purpose being to show
that through these, and especially by the
withdrawal of Mr.. Herrick from France.
we lost "the respect Of the world" at the
record is then characterized as "a con-
fused chapter of blunders," with Mexico
figuring as the helpless victim of a con-
dition of anarchy which the course OF
the administration only served to pro-
mote" With the precision OF an in
ouisitor and the relentlessness Of q Judge
he passes the undisputed facts In re-
view, holding that our methods were
such as to exasperate the Mexicans in
stead Of winning their good will, that our
embargo policy lacked all consistency.
that we intervened while pretending not
to intervene and actually invaded Mexico
for an object which we left unaccom-
plished. 1T is a record" he maintains,
