Capt. John O. Johnson, who died Feb.
10Th at his home in Liberty, served we'll
his country in her time of need, and his
State and town in the years of peace
that followed the Civil War. He was a
true type of the patriotic American, as
were his long line of patriotic ancestors.
Never were such qualities as he possess
ed more needed than in the conditions
which confront this country today, and
although too old for active service his
voice and counsel would have counted
for much against those who are advocat-
ing peace at any price. Capt. johnson
had long been a valued contributor to
the columns Of The Journal, and for
many years close friend of the writer,
who feels his death the more deeply as
it comes at time when few such friends
are left.

Men and Measures at Augusta

AUGUSTA, Feb. 10. 1917. When the
Legislature convened it was thought
that the session would be comparatively
short. Today nobody cares to predict
when the end will come. The bills for
appropriations are more plentiful than
ever before and in most cases larger
than in former years for the same insti-
tulions. The appropriations asked for
State institutions total large sum of
money. The highway commission asks
for three-q1arters of million. The
Public Utilities Commission costs more
than $4,000 per month for salaries and
Office expenses. In general the salary
account of the State increases rapidly.
am told that the Agricultural depart
ment in the summer employs more than
one hundred people in various ways.
Under the administration of Gov. Curtis
about fifty clerks and stenographers
were added to the working force at the
State House. 1t is predicted that the
appropriations for 1917 will be million
dollars more than in any previous year,
and that the same may be said of 1918.
Every Legislature creates new COM
mission, which seems to have an over
wheIming desire to amplify and enlarge
itself 1t is getting to DE the fad that
the State of Maine ought to adopt every
new scheme which any other State has
dreamed of. We are fairly launched.
therefore, upon the sea Of paternalism.
The people do not seem to have yet real
lied that the owners have to pay the
captain and crew. victual the ship and
pay the bills of every sort.
The Governor is engaged in an effort
to, in some degree, control expenditures,
and has presented budget which, in
effect, tells what appropriations the
Legislature may make. TIE Legislature
may accept the dictum of His Excel
lency and it may rot. On every hand
one hears mutterings: ''The Governor
wants to be boss of everything" and
things like that are heard. But the Gov
ernor will probably have pretty nearly
his way. He is adroit and masterful.
There are not many strong men in the
Legislature Our Senator Conant, while
not given to speech making, is strong
and very influential man, He has been
working on the budget. l think that the
Governor has called to his side enough of
the Senators to hold the Senate to his
views on the financial question. In the
House it is different. Almost every
man there has bill in to help out some
body back home. If real artist in CO.
herency, like the late Major Dickey,
makes pool of the interests of House
members, there may be quite scrim-
mage.
One hears very little about temper
ance outside the columns of the Kenne-
bee journal. Extreme temperance men
want the Bussabarger bill and all the
rest of it. The Democrats and the
"wet" Republicans, most of them, say,
''let them have all they want of it,"
etc, evidently thinking that when they
have had 1t the pendulum will swing the
