On Tuesday last the members Of the Demo
cratic State Central Committee met in Leonard
town to fill the vacancies on the ticket for the
coming election, and after conferences among
the prominent leaders it was concluded to hold
an informal meeting with view Of harmonizing
the different wings Of the party. A brief dis
cussion Of the situation and the importance Of
electing the whole ticket resulted in the unan-
nous selection of Messrs. Joseph NJ. MattinglyI
and George c. beverley as the candidates for
the House Of Delegates and Mr.. Harvey Bailey
as the candidate for Sheriff.
For number Of years there has existed with
in the Democratic ranks feeling Of jealousy
that has greatly hampered the party's success
and we are delighted to note that at the above
mentioned meeting fachonal lines were obliter-
ated and the several leaders pledged themselves
to fight the hgh shoulder to shoulder in the
good Democratic way This means victory for
the party in the general election. Now that
we realize how great is our strength when wei
are combined and are determined to permit no
personal nor factional feeling to deter us from
united efforts it is safe to predict sweeping
victory.
We have as our standard bearers men whose
integrity and high standing are worthy the sup
port OF the great party, men who, IT elected,
and there seems no doubt concerning the GER
tainty Of the fact, will be able to secure for the
county and state the legislation that the times
necessItate.
Mr.. Grason, whose record is well and favor
ably known, as the candinate fol the Senate,
not only embodies the attributes that 90 to make
worthy representative Of the greatest of all
counties, but enjoys the distinction Of being
favoraby known by practically all the promi-
nent men Of the state.
Messrs. Mattingly and beverley are equally
competent and are desevedy held in the high
est esteem by then constituents. In fact, there
is not single instance on record Of any public
movement for the benefit of the county inI
which these men have not taken an active and
prominent part Mr.. Niattngly's ability as al
farmer is widespread and his keen business
judgment and high sense Of fidelity to the coun-
tvs interest is equally well known Mr. Pever-
ley, during the many years Of his residence in
St. Mary, has won the high regard and con-
6dence Of our people, and after casting his lot
among us, has done much to further the develop
ment OF one Of our most important Industries.
Such men who are cognzant Of the needs of
the county and will leave nothing undone to
secure the benefits we are entitled to, will great
promote the county S welfare and acquire much
glory for themselves.
We have attempted to paint bright future
for the county and the party, but the realza-
ton Of our hopes depends entirely upon the
earnestness, enthusiasm and harmonious CO..
operation that we display in grasping the golden
opportunity that IS offered us.

Thomas Dcvino and {. W. Miller kepc
af'oat for near, IS minutes in the
chilly waters of the kcnnebec Sunday

for help. Devne managed to get hold
on the side of the launch and Miller
succeeded in making his way to the
wharf's edge where he secured a pre-
oarious hold on the. piling. A rope was
thrown him and he thus supported
himself until a small boat wes secur-
ed and the rescue Of both men made
The men were taken from the water at
IL minutes past seven and Devines

mores. and it is rumored that the
Sophomores are planning an unusual
~ good reception for the members Of
the entering class.
1t is not known as yet just who the
members Of this years Echo beard will
be. All the men eligible for the po-
sition of editor and also all the mem
bers of the business staff have failed
to return to college. and this makes
the selection of the board a problem.
Burton f. Small Is has been chosen
as temporary editor. and will call a
meeting this week to decide on the
personnel of the rest Of the board.
The football team will pass a hard
week Of practice after it's defeat OF

to put out the largest and most elab-

published. There will be so pages In
this number, which will be filled with
articles of timely interest by and
about Colby graduates. Several special
articles have been written for this
number and especially notable among
these will be an article on Colby IN
