and inactivity. instead Of . showing
Of financial sagacity, as the Governor
seems to think. It proves conclusive.
ly that the wishes Of the people Of the
State have been ignored. The tax
payers wanted, provided for and or
dered certain improvements. The i'm
provements have not been made and
there is the money the taxpayers pro-
vided, lying idle when it should have
been in the pockets Of the taxpayers.
Democracy has builded all its pre-
sumptions in recent years on a false
premise. They assume that proud
service lies in a showing Of money.
They extortionately assess the people
and then cry: What a great hnancier
am I! See the unparalleled surplus!"
Governor Fernald was a different
kind Of an executive. He expended
wisely and we'll the money provided
by the Legislature, and even better
than the Legislature or people hoped;
for some Of the Improvements which
were expected to drag along into the
next administration when appropra-
ton would be made to complete them,
were completed within his term. His
service to the State was beyond crit;-
cism and only those hoping to win re-
flected approval by sharing, can claim
that they paid" for what he did"
Such an assertion from any source is
silly in the extreme, for it was and is
the peoples business all the time.
We have secured from the Governor
himself, by teasing him into talking,
the very material we wanted. He has
convicted his administration as we
knew he would do if he talked, as
astute Democratic politicians feared
he would do. In lodging one way he
has butted his head into a little finan-
cial trap. He has made it plain that
There is no $4,000 deficit; there is
large sum Of the peoples money
idle; there is abundance Of work for
the State, ordered by the last Legisla-
ture, that the next administra ton
must do. Thanks. Governor.

Maine Gossip
A Word and q Smile.

Don't hurry through life with frown on
your face
And never a>moment to spare.
For the word Nand the smile. that is al
ways worth while
In a world full Of trouble and care.
There are others with burdens as heavy
as yours,
Hearts weary with aching and pain,
That are longing to hear just word OF
good cheer,
Will you let them be pleading in vain?
Don't feel that misfortune has singled
you out
And made you her own special prey.
For you may be sure there's no home 50
secure
But that trouble will enter some way.
There is sunshine for all in this work
aday world.
But you'll have to go after your share,
And you'll miss it, of course, II you re
hurried and cross.
With never a moment to spare.
And if you have sunshine and love in
your home,
If pleasure and plenty abound.
Don't hoard up your store, you'll enjoy 1t
the more
If you scatter little around
For the light of your smile can be seen
from afar
And heaven records it's full worth:
Though you whisper your word, yet its
echo be heard
To the farthermost ends Of the earth
*, J. Joseph.

A fisherman from the lower reaches
Of the Kennebec said yesterday that
silver make were coming ashore in large
schools to escape the dogfsh, which
have a playful habit of chasing them
into shoal water and eating up as
many as they see fit to devour. leaving
the rest to die on the fats. Silver hake
look pretty, but they have no staying
qualities and if left high and dry by a
receding tide there is nothing left Of
them when the water comes back again
This fisherman, by the way. has a
theory that the sudden eruption Of
sharks all along the coast is merely a
swarm of dog fish running away from

that the sellers Of intoxicating drink
