meanest thing the editor Of the Wa
terville Sentinel could think Of as an
answer" to our editorial on his silly
assumption that "the country does not
know where Hughes stands" was to
sheer at former occupation Of the
editor Of this paper. He Incorporates
a fine sheer at the writer of dime
novels and manifestly hopes he has
deeply wounded the feelings and the
self respect Of the editor of this paper.
Here is his editorial answer" to the
logic of striking political situation:
Four years ago, everybody (and
few others knew just where Wood
row Wilson stood. He stood out like
a skunk in a fog on every question
prominently before the people.
For the benefit of people not familiar
with its characteristic style, we will say
that the sentence quoted above Is from
the editorial columns of the kennepec
Journal. a newspaper printed in the city
of Augusta and owned by the Hon: Ed
win c. Burleigh, senator from Maine
The Kennebec Journal frequently informs
paper. 1t is recommended especially for
rerusal at the family breakfast table.
There may be those who think that the
style adopted by the editorial writer's OF
style once employed by literary hacks
who earned living writing that brand OF
fiction commonly described as dlme
novels. There are even persons so pre-
to the President of the United States as
that contained in the sentence quoted
above. But such criticism will not af1ect

way at the same time chanting it's praises
as food for family consumption at the
! breakfast table and a guide and monitor
for the young.-Waterville Sentinel.
But the writer of dime novels who
never embodied an immoral sugges-
ton, who introduced neither carousal
nor gore, who never encouraged the
personal liberty of booze drinking or
made mockery of law and decency.
who evolved only a warp of fiction to
carry a filling of national history,
natural history, and the quaint humor
of a class and field that the rapid ad-
vance of civilization has left only d
memory, has accomplished. in our
HlOIe real SOOQ lldH has llc
newspaper that sells its soul to greed
for immoral uses.
We know intelligent citizens who
would prefer that their children should
read even the "blocd and thunder
rovels to such sheets as cunningly
scheme to pervert the tastes and pas
sions of youth that have access to
them, in the interests Of an evil traf-
fic.
The pitiable thrust Of our purist
Eeighbor touching dime novels" leaves
no scar, for we should prefer to go
back to it to engaging in the class of
work with which the better element OF
the public credits our exchange. And
while we earned an honest livelihood
ir supplying a demand, we never de-
voted pen or compensation to advanc-
ing an evil business. Not even in
dime novel" did we ever deliberately
lie, in sneer or otherwise, about
neighbor to get square because we
couldn't answer him.

Editors Letter Box
To the Farmers of Maine

Stroudwater, Maine, June II, 1916.
Gentlemen of the EARTH
l want to call your attention TO
the fact that next Monday. June IL.
is primary election day and you should
one and all make an effort to cast your
vote for those who will work for your
interest, this is an agricultural state
with $4,000 farmers who can cast
nearly one third of the total vote OF
the State. 1t will not do to wait for
the fall election as there will be many
presented fer your choice in the pri-
maries that YOU may not wish to elect.
This is eour opportunity to make
your selection. In many cases where
two or more candidates are to be vot-
ed for the one chosen in the primaries
is sure to be elected when his party IS
the strongest and at any rate one from
either party will be elected. NOW IS
that one the one you desire? A 1ar-
mer told me few days ago when dis
cussing this question that in his rural
section CT the State there were two
candidates. one a doctor and the other
a farmer and | told him the farmers
must get out and nominate the 1ar-
mer. Our Legislature has been maze
up too much of doctors, lawyers. drug
gists and others who do not under
stand our needs and cannot judge Tor
our best interests, we must have more
representatives from the men who feed
the nation and are the backbone OF
this and all other states. We are not
receiving due consideration from our
LEGISLATORS. Our laws are railroaded
through and cannot be interpreted by
the average attorney. We are Obliged
to ask for appropriations as If we
were begging when all we ask is that
part of our Sc per cent of taxes we
pay the State be set apart for the IN
terest of the most important work that
the people of any state can engage IN
feeding the hungry and clothing the
naked. Still we are switchedsoff and
side tracked by politicians who are not
interested in our welfare and in some
instances we cannot get the money
that is appropriated for us.
Once more l urge you to get out TO
the primaries and select your men,
then attend to it next fall that they
are elected, regardless of politics. My
two years in the State work gave me
a good idea of what was going on
and / wish to give the farmers the
benefit Of my experience.
Yours respectfully.
j. p. BUCKLEY.
Daily Kennebec journal. [microfilm reel] (Augusta, Me.) 1870-1975, 1916-06-15
Hon. j. 2. BuekIey's Letter.

We wish to call attention to the let
ter Of Hon. ]. p. Buckley, former COM
missioner of agriculture for Maine
who urges that the farmers of the
State do their manifest duty on
primary election day, REGARDLESS
OF POLITICS." Mr.. Buckley is a
Democrat in politics, we believe, but
we agree with him that the way for
the people to select the men they
want is to VOTE for them. And if
the voters fail to NOMINATE the
men they want their ELECTION is a
failure.
The primary selection is more i'm.
portant than the election, for if the
voters neglect their privilege in max
ing choice, the politicians of one party
or the other, or both, will probably
put something over" on the people.
Let voters nominate the best men in
both parties and then elect the best of
those nominated.
Sometimes it is necessary for citi
zens of a common interest to join
hands until parties awake to its
meaning.
We agree with Mr. Buckley: Use
care to SELECT and then see thai
You ELECT.
Don't neglect your duty on primary
day.

The Sentinel's "Answer."

Not having a reasonable reply to
make to the logic of the half hour we
devoted to him on Tuesday, the editor
Of the Waterville Sentinel allows him
self to be deeply offended in his finer
sensibilities because Of the language
we use. He is the same editor who so
strongly objects to the written word
"hog" He fears he will shock his
farmer subscribers or deprave the
tastes Of their children by saying
"hog" or swine right out loud. 1t
is the same editor who has pitied the
Kennebec Journal readers because its
editors do not print it "h-g." The
journal has been repeatedly chided by
this purist (?) who poses as master
of the newspaper game-and devotes
his deepest thought to abuse Of Maine
law and promotion Of the booze trait
fic.
This waterville marvel Of purity OBJ
jects to the analogy Of his friends in
the gutter and a pig in wallow. He
would not pucker up his mouth to say
"hog" for even a pint Of gin. And to
saw skunk" in the English language.
or in the same sentence with the name
of a politician would be a lasting dis
grace.

His Picture.

IT'S not upon the title page we find
His picture; but his subtle art has
wrought
On every page his living presence, caught
More truly than thousand prints can
bind.
Unconsciously he paints for all mankind
The beauty of soul which bravely fought
To gain the heights and depths of purest
thought
With which he richly clothed his match
less mind.
The light Of Gods eternal goodness
wreathes
Majestic beauty round his kindly face.
A noble spirit of contentment breathes
A sense OF awe as in some holy place;
And io-his living presence now be-
Queathes
On US a double portion of his grace.
