Curtis Invites Praise.

In the course Of a speech delivered
before the Democrats Of. Colby college,
Gov. Curtis invites the people of
Maine to praise him and his admins
tration. We trust the good folks Of
Maine will not hesitate to respond, for
now that Post Card Day" has passed
into history Gov. Curtis has ample
time to listen to the applause of the
populace. Who is to shine forth as
the master of eulogy for this admins
tration; let him hasten with his elo-
quence that his masterpiece may be
styled eulogy instead Of an elegy.
But come not to scott, neither to
criticise harshly; the Governor asks
only praise, and deserve s only praise if
his opinions of himself are correct.
The text Of his invitation for all good
people to Join in praise of his admin
istration reads as follows:
I'VE do now invite any and all criti-
cism Of the present administration"
Now this much may not appear like
petition for praise. but the invita-
ton is qualified by the following and
altogether the words of the Governor
cannot be misunderstood-h invites
praise but has no ear for unfavorable
criticism.
Although no complaint of any con-
sequence has been heard we do expect
that some manufactured material will
be presented later on. perhaps at a time
when there will be no opportunity to
refute completely the polotical trump
cry. But in these enlightened DAYS
there is little to fear from such at
tempts to deceive. for the people are
generally we'll acquainted with such
tactics and have no respect for them
or trust in their authors. These fab
relations will Of course be carefully and
cleverly worded with the object of
poisoning the minds of the readers and
hearers. and will be circulated at the
psychological moment in the hope that
there will be no time to afford oppor-
tunity to apply the antidote effective
ly."
In brief the Governor declares in one
breath that the administration is in a
position to invite criticism Of all kinds
and proceeds in the next breath to in
struct his audience to believe nothing
except praise, as all unfavorable criti-
cism is to be Of the lying kind.
The most interesting phrase in his
whole speech is. manufactured ma
terial." The Curtis administration has
been manufacturing material to be
used against itself for months; 1t now
seeks TO declare an embargo against
the Introduction Of this material into
the public press and thence into the
public mind. A straightforward SIM
Die story Of the acts Of the Curtis ad-
Manifestation coupled with the quota
ton Of the remarks Of the Governor Is

to defeat the reelection Of the admin

The Democrats in the Senate are
averse to following the House in the
absolute repeal Of the free sugar clause
in the Underwood tariff. They are
trying to postpone the operation Of the
measure until 1920. That will be a
Presidential year and the purpose is
plainly political. However, by 1920 a
Republican administration will have
been in office for three years and a
Republican tariff law will be in oper-
etion.

I hear the laugh Of zephyrs in the trees.
The birds are back. the leaves are peep
Each sunny day brings music Of the hees.
And violets are blooming all about
The creeks are waking from their win
The iay chit chit ha. left their merry voice.
And birds Of nesting mates are making
choice.
The glebe is yielding up a rich perfume.
AS busy plowmen probe it for its wealth,
Field labors. now. the husbandmen re-
Aglow with active industry and health;
And housewives. always provident and
Are searching garrets for their hidden

Upon their providence and garden lore.

All nervous for their saftey in her care
Is leading them afield in search Of food.
Yet all the time OF soaring hawks
While cawing crows are winging far and
in search of eggs, that hunger may be
Their shadows as they dart where rab-
Aye keeping trembling Dummies sore
Among the ripples where the sunlight
plays,
The "silversides" are sporting fast and

Their lissome bodies shooting vivid rays
That seem to dance with holden, elish

In celebration of returning spring.
The waking time Of Nature and the

While hymns of praise the birds are

Replete with notes Of love and Joyous
