The defeat of Daniel J. McG1licuddy, Demo-
cratic Representative from the Second district Of
Maine is the first opportunity the people, and
especially the labor men, have had to express
their opinion Of Mr.. Wilson's course in COM
pelling Congress to enact the railway wage in
crease bill Mr. McGillicuddy was labor can
didate, thrice elected by labor votes. and he voted
for the Wlson-Adamson bill, but that certainly
did not save him. OF his defeat, the New York
Times, which is supporting President Wilson,
says: The lesson is evident The labor vote is
east-just as other votes are cast. Trucking to
1t, abaslng ones party before it, does not win.
The mechanics OF Bath and Auburn voted on the
issues Of the day, just as did the farmers of
Oxford County Mr.. Hughes denunciations of
the strike settlement, his apparent hos
tility to the eight-hour principle, did not avail
to arouse the unions of Sagadahoc against him. -
OF course the Times knows Mr. Hughes is not
opposed to the eght-hour principle As governor
he was strongly for it. What he does oppose is
a simple effort to secure increased paw mas
querading as promotion of the eight-hour prin-
cple.
The Washington herald., 1916-09-15

The result Of the Maine election is as much
as It is a patriotic repudiation of Woodrow VII
son. Against the advice of the politicians Mr..
Hughes attacked the administration for striking
the flag abroad and surrendering to force at
home. Against the advice of the politicians he
condemned legislation by coercion as an assault
upon the vltals of liberty under law Against the
advice Of the politicians he scored the Executives
for yielding to organized threat instead of de-
pending upon organized opinion. The returns

And now it is Spain which is rapidly ap-
preaching the point at which it will be necessary
to decide in favor of one or the other of the

With our exports of fresh meat thirty times
as great as before the war, it is small wonder
that it has become prohibitive to the poor in
this country With flour 81 a barrel dearer than
a year ago and likely to go higher, it is small
wonder that the baker has reduced the size of
his loaf. Isn't it perfectly logical?

NEW MONUMENT
TO BE DEDICATED
SUNDAY, JUNE II

The handsome monument erected to
the memory of the soldiers and sailors
Of the United States, who served in
the war with Spain. Philippine insur-
rection, China relief expedition and
Indian campaigns has been completed
and reflects deserved credit to its de-
siGner, Mr.. Lewis, Home engineer. The
monument will be unveiled and dedi-
Gated with appropriate ceremonies
next Sunday, June II. Miss Violet
Machle has accepted the invitation to
unveil the monument and f. c. Plum
mer of Bath. Me. will deliver an adj
dress. Mr.. Plummer is a past depart
ment commander. L. s. w. ", and
speaker of marked ability. Governor
William +. Hurley will welcome the
visitors on this occasi with the OPEN
ing remarks of the program. A parade
Of the members of the Department Of
Maine. United Spanish War Veterans,
will precede the exercises, the columns
Will form at 80 Z. M. and march to
the cemetery. The governor and men,
bers of the Home staff will head the
procession. Co. NJ, I'd Regiment Inf.
\. G. s. NJ. commanded by Capt. Per-
ley is expected to escort the veterans.
This event should attract many visi-
tors to the Home and affords to those
who served in the recent campaigns
an opportunity of renewing acquaint-
ance formed during the days of service
in the Spanish American war and
doubtless many reunions of comrades
will occur who have had no opportu-
nifty to meet since 1898. This is the
most pleasant season for visitors to
view the Home. The grounds with
their beautiful shade trees and we'll
kept shrubbery and the newly decorat-
ed graves present handsome spec
tacle, which will doubtless be viewed
by many who will come to the Home
on this occasion.

Dedication of the New
Saint Joseph's Church

The new Saint Joseph's Catholic
church was dedicated Sunday morning.
The attendance was exceptionally
large and many Protestants were
present. The ceremony commenced at
1890 with the following clergy par
ticipating Ri. Rev. Louis S. Walsh.
bishop of Portland; Mons. McDon-
ough. V. G.. P. R., P. A., Fathers Nell
ligan of Togus, John Nelligan of Au-
gusta, Butler of Lewiston, Mccarthy
OF Bangor, Henry of Winthrop, Cary
of Hallowell. and the resident priest,
Reardon, Of this city. The procession
was formed at the house of FIR. Rear
don and marched to the church, where
they encircled the building and the
ceremonial of blessing and exterior
was performed. The procession then
marched through the huge oaken doors
and the interior was dedicated to the
service of God. Then came the cele-
bration of the first mass, Rev. FIR.
Linehan of Portland being the cele-
brant, and FIR. Martin A. Carey preach
ing the dedicatory sermon.
The new church is ? beautiful edi :
flee and is built of Hallowell granite
and is of the gothic style Of architec-
ture. 1t occupies the site of the old
church which was moved back on Lin
coin avenue. The interior is finished
in dark oak and Is very attractive and
artistic. The heavy timbers overhead
blend tremendously with the furnish
inss. The pews are artistic in design
and are the gift Of the resident priest,
Rev. P. H. Reardon.
Beautiful memorial windows have
been given and are now in process of
manufacture and will probably be put
in place this fall. One of the most
elaborate is from the Knights Of Co.
lumbus, another by the bishop Of the
diocese and others from private indi-
viduals.
The foundation, which is Of con-
crete, was laid in the fall Of 1914,
and the corner stone laid with elabor-
ate ceremony on July of the follow
ing year.
The history of Saint Joseph's parish
is interesting and covers a period of
so years. 1t shows a growth from a
struggling handful Of Roman Cathol-
les to the present prosperous parish.
1t was first established as a mission
church, a branch Of the Augusta
church, and was first in charge of Rev.
FIR. Eagan. Following FIR. Eagan
came Fathers Callaghan and Murphy.
