THE POPULAR VOTE.

The Democratic editors are ringing
the changes on the vox populi, voX Del,
idea IN connection with the reelection of
Woodrow Wilson, putting the loud pedal
on the fact that while he may have been
a minority president during his first
term he will not be In that class during
his second. Very good! In the popular
vote in the last election he received
something less than half million votes
more than Hughes. 1t might be inter
esting to make casual analysis of that
four hundred and some odd thousands
surplus. The returns show that certain
States of the old Solid South voted as
follows, giving the figures in round
numbers: Mississippi, Wilson, $1,000,
Hughes, 5000; Louisiana, Wilson, 6S, =
900, Hughes, 5000; Geo gia, Wilson,
10000 Hughes, %, 600; Alabama, Will
son, $4,000, Hughes, 10000; Florida,
50, 900 for Wilson and $4,000 for Hughes
Virginia, 10000 for Wilson, 2l,000 for
Hughes; South Carolina, So, 900 for VIII
son, l, 500 for Hughes. Here are seven
States which threw AS, 900 votes for
Wilson and 106 500 for Hughes, a ajor-
lty of 1873. 500 for the Democratic candl-
date. There were five more States of
the old Solid South that went strongly
for Wilson, and one of them, Texas,
gave a majority of 40, 900 against
Hughes, or enough to more than offset
the entire Republican vote in twelve
southern States. With the south in the
saddle during Wilson's first term, we
may expect it not only to hold its seat in
the saddle but to dominate the crupper
as well during his second. - Biddeford

Why He Changed His Vote.

A Lewiston man who voted for Wilson
in 1912, tells the Lewiston Journal why
he voted for Hughes in 1916 Says ne:
SIN 1912 Wilson assured US that he
would reduce the cost of living. In 1912,
l took my pay envelope. $13 50, and went
out Saturday to the store. l bought a
barrel of flour, a bushel of potatoes and
a plug of tobacco. l rode home on the
electric car and had ST left. This year,
just about the same season, previous to
election, did the same, took my S13. so
to the store; bought barrel of -four, a
bushel of potatoes and plug of tobacco.
l walked home and owed tae grocer 70
cents. You can figure it to your own
satisfaction and see where we are benefi-
ted by Wilson,"

CAPT. FRANK E. CURTIS.

Deep interest has been felt in Sears.
port in the news concerning the Ameri-
Hawaiian liner, Columbian, torpedo
ed AMI sunk, Nov. 9Th, off the Spanish
coast by the German submarine U.49.
because of the fact that Captain Frank
E. Curtis, in command of the steamer. ia
a resident of that town. Captain Curtis
was in Searsport early in October and
left about Oct. 18th to take command of
the Columbian in Boston harpor. He ex-
perienced serious trouble before sailing
on Oct. 21st, due to the fact that fear Of
submarines made it very difficult to pet
crew. Sailing was delayed two DAYS
when the greater number of the men
Captain Curtis had already signed. de-
serted. The crew with which the Column
blan sailed was hastily gathered by Cap
tain Curtis, who passed Oct. 18th and goth
rushing about Boston in taxicab in
search of available men.
Though not a native of Searsport.
Captain Curtis comes of an old Searsport
family, famous in the towns maritime
annals. He is the son of Captain Frank
A, and Amanda (Babcock) Curtis, and
Was born about Al years ago in Sag.
NAV, Mich, where the family was
temporarily residing. The elder Captain
Curtis was one of the best known of
Searsport sea captains, and had an ad-
venturous life. He fought through the
Civil War and was a prisoner in the Con-
federate prisons at Libby and Anderson
vile. He was in command of the bark
r. P. Buck when she was lost off the
Cape Of Good Hope, and landed her crew
safely on the lonely part of the African
coast, from which they were finally
rescued and brought home
Captain Frank E. Curtis has been with
the ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS line for about II
years, and has been in command of diff
ferent vessels belonging to the company.
He began his career in sea-pilot service
in Boston harbor. He was married about
eight years ago to Miss Lossa Ford of
Searsport, and they have daughter a
year old. Mrs. Curtis is now in Boston.
where Captain Curtis will probably JON
her as soon as he can get passage across
from the other side

The Scallop Fishery.

The scallop fishermen have deserted
the Monroe Island beds and gone to the
Eastern Bay or into other business. The
fishermen and dealers are still at loss to
know what has suddenly devastated the
beds that once afforded such rich picking.
One theory is that the damage has been
done by star fish, and there will be some
scientific investigation along that line.
The extent of the disaster which it brings
upon Rockland may be judged from the
fact that the fishermen coming to this
port have received $660,00O for their
spent right here in Rockland. One fisher
man who has been compelled to quit the
business had just expended 5000 for
gear. The fishermen are said to be get
ting some good hauls in the eastern bay.
