KEENAN, now has a newspaper the
Free Press, the first issue of which
was published last Thursday. A
copy of No. | reached our exchange
desk and we must say that it is one
of the neatest and most attractive
ly gotten up papers we are recelV-
ing. 1t has an abundance of news,
too, considering the size of the
town. Bert J. Fuller, formerly OF
Prentice, but who has recently been
one of the publishers of the Park
Falls Independent, is editor and pub
Usher of the Free Press and we can
assure the good people of KEENAN,
that they can expect a first-class
newspaper if they give it the neces-
sary support. Success to the Free
Press!

Trout season opens tomorrow. IN
der the new law passed by the last
legislature, it is unlawful to keep
trout less than seven inches in
length. 1t is a fool law, but the
only safe thing for the angler to do
is to throw back every trout under
the prescribed length, even though
nine out of ten Of them will die any
way. The lawmakers would have
acted more sensibly to have cut
down the limiting number rather
than increasing the size required, II
they were DESTROYS Of saving the
trout.

CHANGE THE NAME

To the Taxpayers and Voters Of This Town.
| wish to impress a suggestion to
the voters of this town, to consider
for our next town meeting, land hope
each and everyone will consider the
matter, and expect they will agree
with me.
Our beautiful village with the
greatest surroundings and sceneries
such as seldom are to be found has
been called for the past rs years
Island Pond'' which no doubt was
so called by some of the first settlers
here without further consideration
and has always continued to be
called so ever since. Now if we stop
to think, to call such a beautiful body
of water pond, | think we are not
doing justice to our village, and not
giving this lake the credit it deserves.
Also therein is one of the most pretty
islands to be seen for hundreds of
miles. A pond | consider a little
small spot of dirty water with frogs
in it or something Of that sort. Also
an island in the city is very little
thought of, prisoners and insane
people are usually sent to the islands.
Now in my mind, l think there is
just as much difference between a
pond and lake as in a small village
of 500 inhabitants and a big city of
$4,000. Stop and consider this mat
ter and no doubt you will agree with
me.
Now Iwould suggest that in our
next town meeting it will appear in
the Town Warning that we call this
beautiful village as it ought to be
called, Brighton" or Brighton
Lake"

There is a duty the coming legis-
1ature cannot fail to perform if it
desires to represent the wishes of
the people, and that is to repeal the
Perry Act. We would like to pro-
hibit the sale of liquor, but the
people have spoken in no unmistak-
able terms against the Perry Act by
the referendum and it is the plain
duty of the next legislature to re-
peal the act.

Criticism was directed by the con-
gresham at the democratic Congress
for passing the Adamson wage-rais-
ing law while under threat. We've
got to get back to old patriotism,
loyalty and devotion to the country"
he concluded, "and when we accom-
plish that, it won't make any differ
ence whether the administration is
republican or democratic.
A rising vote of thanks was ex-
tended to Congressman Dale. There
were nearly 100 present to hear him,
large number for the Interchurch
mems luncheons. Congressman P.
Davis Oakley was among those pres
ent.
Chairman Harvey B. Brainerd an
nounced that an effort was being

Mrs. Mary Carleton.

Mrs. Mary Carleton, widow of the
late Frank Carleton, died in hos
pital in Boston, Thursday, October
10, aged 81 years. The cause of
death was a tumor on the brain.
The body, which was accompanied
from Boston by the son, W.T.. Carleton
and wife, arrived here Saturday and
was taken to East St. Johnsbury,
Monday, the 29rd, where burial took
place beside her husband.
Deceased was Mary Tracy before
her marriage to Mr.. Carleton, born
in Island Pond and passed the active
years of her life in town. Her. hus-
band, Frank Carleton, was prominent
in the industrial life of the town,
and conducted a mercantile business
for many years. She is survived by
one son, w. T. Carleton of Boston,
with whom she had made her home
for the past ten years, two brothers,
Andrew and T. C. Tracy of this
place, and three sisters. Mrs. j. S.
Moore of Boston, Mrs. F. A. Elkins
of Portland, Me-, and Mrs. j. w.
Farrell of this place.
Mrs. Carleton was taken to the
hospital about three weeks ago for
surgical treatment but the disease
was beyond the best surgical and
medical skill. She was an estimable
lady, active in good work, greatly
loved in the home circle and by her
many friends. A kind and loving
wife and mother has gone to her
reward and deep sorrow is in the
homes and hearts of relatives and
friends by her passing away.
