LABOR VOTE, NOT DELIVERABLE.
This is the Outstanding Fact Which
Political Philosophers Deduce From
the Defeat in Maine OF Repre-.
sentative McGiIlicuddy. a-,

From among the numerous lessons
or conclusions which the political phi
losophers can draw from the Maine
election one lesson or conclusion
stands out more sharply defined than
any other. 1t jumps at you.
The labor vote, for the sake OF
which the Poltroon Congress tarred
and feathered itself with it's own
hands only dozen days ago, Is not
deliverable by the traders who pre-
tended to sell it.
This salient fact of the election Is
illustrated conspicuously in the Sec
Ond Congress district. There are few
places within the confines of our
republic where. labor Is relatively
stronger than in the city of Lewiston,
the home city of Representative Nc
Gillicuddy, and he has made spe-
cialty of it in his own political prac-
tice. In the Second Maine, if any
where, would there be indications of
any return, in the shape of votes, for
the surrender of Congress to the four
Brotherhoods. After campaign
which might almost be called desper-
ate in it's effort to save McGillicuddy
and one Democratic seat in the House
from the Republican onset, Mr.. Nc
Gillicuddy was defeated by an adj
verse plurality of nearly 400, whereas
he had been elected to the Sixty
second Congress by plurality Of 1889
and to the SiXty-third by 1881.

URGES VENTILATION OF SCHOOLS
Department on Tuberculosis Of Board
of Control Anxious to impress :.
Importance OF Ventilation

DIES MONIES, Sept. 20:-With the
opening of the public and parochial
schools of the state the department
On tuberculosis of the Board Of Con
troll, is exceedingly anxious to impress
upon teachers the Importance OF the
proper ventilation and sanitation OF
the school rooms Much has already
been accomplished by boards of edu-
cation in the, reconstruction of school
buildings with the view to an ade-
quate and constant supply of fresh
air to the scholars during school
hours. Teachers very generally have
acquainted themselves with those
simple methods by which, in the alb
sence of artificial systems OF ventila-
ton, they are able to keep supply
of good air in the school room. The
educators of the state have been Civ
ing very general attention to this ini-
portant phase of school management,
and because of this, much has been
accomplished in the reduction of res
piratory diseases OF ones kind or an
other, including Tuberculosis. It would
be well where medical inspection in
the schools is mot maintained, for
parents to have their children thor
oughly examined with special refer
ence to the eyes. ears, nose, throat,
teeth and especially the chest cavity.
Many physical defects which impair
rchildren's health will be discovered
and removed This will go far towards
keeping the child we'll and properly
adjusted to his school tasks. 1t is de-
sirable as winter comes on that par
ticular attention shall be given to the
important matter Of school ventilation.
Remember that fresh air is necessary
to good health. w. ssf -..

Licenses for Motorists.

Plain Talk is firmly OF the opinion
that before any person be granted an
auto license it should be compulsory
for that person to go before a quail
fed board and pass a rigid examina-
ton relative to his or her competency
to drive a car on the public highway
a railroad company will not permit
a reckless man to run locomotive;
neither will it permit drunkard or a
color blind person to handle the throt
tie. and it seems to us that the same
ruling should apply to auto drivers. 1t
is a crime for a drunken man to drive
a car: it is criminal negligence to let
a careless or color blind person en-
danger the limb and life of pedestri.
ans. Some day, probably, after a few
hundred more people are killed, the
people will come out of their lethar-
gic state and demand some protection
