COBURN-KENT'S HILL
GAME SATURDAY

The Coburn- kent's Hill game for
Saturday afternoon is attracting the
attention Of a college game as the two
teams have heen sweeping everything
before them so far in the State and 1t
is felt that they are certain to put up
an article Of baseball that will
lie first class in every partic-
ular. The Coburn boys have been
working exceptionally hard for this
game and will go into it with a
determination to win by as big score
AS possible. The lineup Of the Coburn
team will probably be: Foster. catcher;
Pagan, pitcher; Kewer. first base;
Pagganucci, second base; Alberts,
shortstop: McElwee, third base; w.
Fraser, left field; Cedarstrand, center
field: Cocmbs, right field. There is a
possibility that McElwee will DO the
catching and if he does Alberts will
probably play third, Cedarstrand at
short and Walsh in center field. Eth
er combination is strong one and
will give a team that will fight for ev-
erything in sight. The game will be
played on the Libby field and will be
called at 2.30 and a large crowd will
doubtless be in attendance.

There is u good deal Of speculation as
to how it will come out. as the Colby
team has been an uncertain factor so
far this season. 1t is weak on pitching
and when the opposing pitcher had
the right stuff and the boys are UNI
able to do some effective hitting, the
game goes to the other fellows. Some

Gardiner, Me, May 26.-(SpeciaD.-
Ex-Gov. B. Nj. Fernald, a candidate
for the L. S. Senate, and Hon. E. w.
Wheeler, a candidate for Governor,
spoke Friday evening at the Repub-
lican Club. President Ellis presented
Hon. c. A. Knight, who in a few brief
words introduced Hon. E. w. Wheel
err. Both speakers were received with
hearty applause both at the opening
and closing of their remarks.
Mr.. Wheeler opened by expressing
his pleasure at being present and re-
ferred to the great benefit to be de-
rived from kindred organizations to
the one he was then addressing; of
the great amount of good which may
be accomplished through them, as the
teligent leadership and earnest, or
ganiZed effort.
Democrats Held Accountable
The speaker referred briefly to his
own candidacy and turned at once to
a discussion of State and National is
sues. This year the Democratic par
ty must answer for their deeds and
lnisdeeds. Governor Curtis makes a
paramount issue of the financial ques-
ton and financial policy of his admin
istration.
The Democratic party claims the
present balance in the State treasury
is the largest in its history. The
speaker stated that more than half a
million dollars was accumulated dur
ing the administration of Governor
Haines, of which the present admin
istration has had the benefit and it
has also had the benefit of one-half
mill more State tax than the Haines
administration, the latter additional
tax being unnecessary. The balance
is due to the fact that the appropria-
tons made by the last Legislature
for Urgent and necessary improve
ments has not been ,eXpended-it lies
in the inflated treasury so that the
Democratic party could point to the
wonderful financial administration of
Gov. Curtis. He cited the $4,000 APP

the one for a water supply at the
State School in Hallowell, $4,000 was
