Reports from all around are that the
cold wet weather is making big dent
in the summer business. Bookings are
being cancelled and hotels and sport
ing camps which expected to be filled
up at this time have hardly q guest.
The number of out Of the State auto
mobiles which are coming in the State
seems to have dropped Off rapidly until
there are not over one-half as many
now as there has been. The business on
the railroad is also suffering and trains
that should be crowded all the way
are coming through with cars that are
half full of people. The New York ex'
press which ordinarily 1s running with
10 or IA cars at this time has from sew
en- to eight cars and there Is plenty
~ room in them. Maine needs some
warm weather and needs it quick II
there is going to be any summer bus
mess here this year.

Mrs. Caroline Dudley Croker was
the daughter Of AKRON Dudley and Sa-

The election was the principal topic
of the day on the street Tuesday and it
was wonderful the number of people
that had picked Milliken to win the
nomination. In the city general regret
was expressed that Charles H. Far
rington has failed Of the nomination
for sheriff but the Republicans all ex-
pressed themselves as willing to accept
the fortunes Of war and to turn round
and do all possible to elect the ticket
as nominated. The victory Of Clinton
H. Goodhue for county commissioner
was popular one as he is known as
good business man and a good fellow
and one who will be credit to the
county and who will have its best in
terests at heart.
