regard to the stock and bond issue
which the petitions seek to have au-
thoriZed.
The petitioners desire to issue $30,-
600 in common stock at par and S40.-
600 in per cent. gold bonds.
A further hearing was held in regard
to the complaint against the Presque
Isle Water Co. alleging impure water
supply. Following previous hearing
the commissioners ordered the COM
pany to furnish a satisfactory water
supply and the hearing this forenoon
was for the purpose of ascertaininS
why the company had not complied
with the order of the commission. c.

certain sections of Chapter g. Revised
Statutes. 1t provides that agents for
the protection Of children shall be ap-
pointed directly by the State Board Of
Charities and Corrections, that county
lines shall be done away with in their
work; that their salaries shall be fixed
by the State Board; that their expenses
shall be paid by the State instead of
the county; that temporary commit
ment of children shall be to the State
Board of Charities and Corrections and
not to the agent: that permanent COM
mitments of children shall be made only
by probate court but temporary com
mitment may still be given to overseers
of the poor before any order of tenn
porary commitment is finally made.

Smaller Fisheries Patrol
Boats are Recommended

The matter of the patrol boats in use
by the sea and shore fisheries depart
ment was one point we did not touch
upon in our report said Representative
Joseph S. Harmon of Stonington, chair
man of the special commission for the
protection and preservation of the lob
ster fisheries, in an interview Tuesday.
Il will say, however, that l am not In
favor Of the large boats now In use by
that department and for two reasons:
One, the cost OF operation; the other the
fact that on account of their large size
and distinctive design they can be easily
recognized and time given to prepare
for their call.
These boats, understand, carry
four wardens. The sum necessary for
their maintenance and operation would
provide for at least IL wardens and they
could get about in small boats and do
more effective work and cover a larger
territory than could be done in the same
time by the larger boats

Mr.. Baxter of Portland on
Water Storage Privileges

Representative Percival z. Baxter of
Portland made the following statement
tuesday after he had secured the refer
ence OF the West Branch Driving and
Reservoir Co. bill to the committee on
judiciary instead of the committee on in
terror waters:
The West Branch Driving g. Reser-
Noir Dam Co. is, l understand, subsid-
larry company of the Great Northern
Paper GO. 1t has received from the
State valuable privileges OF water stor
age. and now asks for the right to sell
its water for power purposes This seems
to be a reasonable use OF it's water, and
| should not want to stand in the way
of proper development. Nevertheless
II the state is going TO adopt some con
structive water power policy for the fu-
tUre il should begin now. at this session.
The storage reservoirs of Maine are
the means through which the State can
most properly regulate and control its
water powers. This West Branch Co.
was given the right of eminent domain,
a right which the State should jealousy
guard, and it should seldom, if ever,
give this sovereign power to corpora
tions, This company was twice allowed
TO raise Chesuncook lake once six feet
again A. feet, and it was allowed to raise
other dams. In fact it has acquired from
the State the very rights we are seeking
to protect. Now all this is past; 1t has
been given away, and we must look to
the future. We should find no fault with
this company. 1T took what was given.
But we need and should not give away
any further rights even though at the
time they appear of little value.
Il believe we can protect the States
interests without unreasonably restrict
ing the future rights of this company.
"All these water power bills, in my
opinion, should go before one committee,
and then we may be able to build some
thing worth while. My original resolve
I referred to judiciary, as it is largely :,
legal question. and moreover the 1909
State water storage commission was
created by a bill coming from that COM
mttee. The Tracy BILL l hope, will go
there also. 1t was referred by the refer
ence committee to interior waters
though l urged otherwise. If there IS
any complicated legal question before
us II Is in this bill, and either Of the le-
gal committees should settle it. So also
would the Whipple ~. Let one commit
tee do the work and maybe we can
evolve something worth while out of the
general sentiment in favor of this impor-
tant measure. This Is why l moved non
concur with the Senate in the reference
of the West Branch bill to the committee
on interior waters and sent it to the ju-
dietary committee

A large amount Of new business was

necessary that certain permanent fea-
lures be made part Of our road con-
struction
Although there may be difference of
opinion as to how wide our roads should
cuts and fills and how much re-align-
ment is necessary. all factions agree that
these features are to a certain extent es-
.sential along with the other permanent
features mentioned in the foregoing pro-
posed amendment
IN going over the items contained in
the construction account Of our present
day roads. both State and State-aid. 1t
VIII appear therefrom that on many
miles Of improved highway the aggregate
cost OF constructing the features enum-
GRATED In this proposed amendment
ranges from 80 to 6S per cent. of the to-
tai amount expended thereon.
1t is the purpose of this resolve to
place before the people OF the State the
advisability of providing bond money to
hnance these particular features in high
way construction that are Of a perma-
nent nature. in order that such funds as
are available from taxation may be de-
voted to the temperament features
thereof; in order that greater progress
may be made in the construction Of both
State-aid and State highways than would
be possible under any plan necessita ting
the payment for permanent features
from immediate taxation. and also that
the proceeds from such bonds as are IS
sued pursuant to this amendment may
not be devoted to that part of highway
construction which will disappear and be
non-existent long before the last of such
bonds have matured. 1t is the further
purpose of this resolve to obviate the
danger of such lavish expenditure of
bond money, as to impose an unjust
financial burden on the future, by maxi
ing it necessary that along with this
bonding plan, a plan be adopted for
raising sufficient funds by means of
present taxation to carry on the non
permanent construction work and main
tenance of our State and State aid high
ways"

Rednan's Bond Issue Plan

Representative Redman Of Ellsworth
in speaking to the newspaper men on
Tuesday morning of his resolve to
amend the constitution providing for a
100000 bond issue for good roads,
explained that it was not intended to
do away with direct taxation for road
building. and might not prevent the
assessment Of a mill tax. But by pro-
viding money for the permanent fea-
lures of road building it would enable
the roads to be built faster. perhaps not
twice as fast, as the percentage of per-
manent construction in federal roads is
about so per cent. and in State roads
about 40 per cent. but appreciably
faster.
1t was suggested that the money
would not be available for two years
but Mr.. Redman explained that If the
resolve were passed by the people next
September and special session of the
Legislature were held next year the
money would be available in 1918.
