OF COLORADO A SPEAKER

William C, Mcdonald Pre-
sides at Meeting.

The Grand Patriotic mass meeting
at the armory last night was attended
by property owners, bankers, law
yers, educators. their wives and scores
of war workers.
The meeting was presided over by
former Gov William c. Mcdonald,
who was introduced by Gov. w. f.
Lindsey. Governor Mcdonald stated
briefly that the true philosophy OF
life has taught that 1t is really bet
ter to give than 10 receive; that all
over this country there were vacant
chairs in saddened homes because of
sons called to a world war to make
democracy safe for mankind.
He then introduced former Cover
nor Henderson Martin of the Phillip
pines. Governor Martin explained
that the nation is really fighting
an ideal and that ideal was the I
dom OF the human race. The United
States is the only country in his
tory that has risen to this height and
it will draw the world up to Its high
ideals. He then made plea for the
second Liberty loan. He said that
every boy and girl in America, OF
at least one million boys and one mil
lion giris should each buy Liberty
bond for re amount of $50.
One Cause of War, He Says.
Chief Justice S. Harrison White OF
Colorado was then introduced. He
announced that he would not speak
on the Liberty loan or food conserva-
tion as had been announced in diff
ferent papers but that he would take
FOR his subject The Cause of War
and Why We Are in It." He an
nounced in his premises that there
never has been but one cause of wal
in the world.
The one cause for all the wars in
the world the judge gave as uncondi-
tional sovereignty. He explained thai
unconditional sovereignty "meant il
brief that each nation had a right tt
do those things which would be OF
the most benefit to it. individually
without regard to the smaller ma
lions" He cited that most all ma.

practice this doctrine at some time y,
other in their history. That the at

PORTRAIT OF PERSHTNG
IN FRENCH MUSEUM

PARIS, July 10 Cby mali TO New
York).-FlanlSed by portraits of such
illustrious coldiers as Napoleon. Tu-
renne, Condo. Hoche. and MasMahon,
the picture o fMajo John J. Pershing
now hangs on the hallowed walls Of
the French army museum at the In
valides.
Executed in a week by Jean Bou-
cher the official army painter, 1t is
a striking portrait OF the American
commander, and worthy to rank as
a memento for generations to come
of the chief of the first body OF Amer
lean troops to set foot on French
soil.
Already thousands OF Parisians have
filed before the picture lifting their
hats in homage to the sister republic.
General Pershing has appointed as
his interpreter Alven F. Sanborn, an
American magazine writer. Mean
while he is polishing UP his French,
while Joffre, with whom he is in con-
slant contact, is taking lessons in En-
glish every night at his villa at Au-
teuil. Very soon the two great cam
paigners will be able to converse
without an interpreter.

WAR PROTECTION
FOR j. S. K|DD|ES
URGEDBY OFFICIAL

"The war has placed a tremendous
valuation upon American children.
and America must cherish these chill
dren."
This statement was made today by
Miss Julia c. Lathrop. chief Of the
children's bureau of the Department
OF Labor, in pointing out that the
United States Government must pro-
vide for the children of the land, in
order that they may be flt to carry
the burden of the world" thrown
upon them by the European war,
which has practically robbed the Eu-
ropean children OF the present genera
ton OF their opportunities.
"a nation, such as ours, which
takes its men by law and puts them
Into the field of battle, must provide
for the home-folk," Miss Lathrop
said. Men sent to Europe to win
democracy for the world must not
come home to find democracy smash
ed in their own households. Mothers
and children must be cared for.
Should Learn Lesson.
Surely we should learn from the
mistakes Of the belligerent nations,
and take every precaution to keep our
children normal and free to grow up
to carry on the work Of the world.
Thousands OF children besides war
orphans and refugees have been
directly affected by the war, accord
ing to reports from belligerent coun-
tries which have come to the chill
dren's bureau. Juvenile delinquency
has increased, more children have
been necessary to protect the health
of mothers and babies. and home lie
has been broken up by the increased
employment Of mothers.
I'VE in America cannot afford to
ignore these lessons.
sour own democracy-the democ-
racy OF the American home-must be
protected.
Marked Growth shown.
'Tn the nifty years since the civil
war, legislation affecting the family
and its economic status has shown
marked growth. Mothers pension
laws, minimum wage laws, and work
mems compensation laws are recog-
nized examples. and II Is Acknowl-
edged that their result has not been
to pauperize. but distinctly to improve
the power OF the family to protect IT.
self. In view of this tendency It IL to
be expected that a system of COM
pensation for soldiers and sailors can
be developed whereby the Govern
ment will make possible for their chill
dren the home life and parental care
which are the need OF every child

Pershing Hopes People viii Send
Only Current Matter.

PARIS, July 27.-The Sammies In
France need all the good. wholesome
reading matter the folks at home can
send them. Major General Pershing
declared today.
The American boys at the perma-
nent training camp near the French
front have expressed their hunger for
fresh newspapers and magazines from
home. The question was put up to
the American commandments. and
he not only approved plans that
might be made to furnish the Sam
mics with good magazines and news
papers. but outlined a scheme under
which he believes the work can e
done effectively.
II thoroughly approve OF the plan
of sending plenty OF newspapers and
magazines to the troops" General
Pershlng said.
But one thing must be understood;
the officers do not want. and the men
do not appreciate, old papers-old
printing.
I'VE do not want a repetition here
of what occurred on the Mexican Dor
der last year. when word was sent
out that our troops appreciated read
in: matter. Well-meaning people
opened their garrets and dug out any
thing they could find IN the line of
reading matter.
Tt was almost valueless. The

did not crave that sort OF reading
What was wanted was something up
to-date.
1T is the same thing here in
France. Moreover. tons of old paper
cannot be allowed to impede matters

Logging on Merrymeeting Bay.

There were 1000 of those big sticks of
pulpwood that came down from Rumford
Falls during the freshet. They passed
Pejepscot on the Androscoggin's ten foot
flood at 1918 that night and most of them
reached Merrymeeting Bay Tuesday. The
owners of the logs engaged all the help
they could find in Brunswick and Bath to
corral the runaway sticks, but thousands
have gone to sea.
One North Bath fisherman made $40
hauling in 100 logs at Is cents apiece
One bunch of these logs was roped to-
gether and coming down the tide like a
racehorse. He managed to make fast to
the bunch and succeeded in slanting the
raft in to the shore.
A Bath man in dory worked until an
hour after darkness came on landing pulp
wood logs from the river and piling them
up at the ferry landing. Capt. Perkins of
the Virginia reports that just before day
light Tuesday morning thousands of logs
passed Popham at the mouth of the Ken
nebec and went to sea. In Merrymeeting
the waters were crowded all day Tuesday
with pulp wood that had come down on
the Androscoggin's flood and men were
busy rescuing what they could.-Bath In

Maine Supreme Court Fifty-Fifty POliti-
cally.
AUGUSTA, Me-, June 49, The recent
changes in the Maine Supreme Court, the
nomination of Leslie c. Cornish of this
city to the chief justiceship and the NOM
ination of Albert M. Spear of Gardiner as
associate justice, still leave the bench
half and half, politically.
The four Democrats of the Supreme
Court are Associate Justices George E.
Bird of Portland, George F. Haley of
Biddeford, George M. Hanson of Calais
and John B. Madigan of Houlton. The
four Republicans are Chief Justice-elect
Leslie c. Cornish, Associate Justice
elect Albert M. Spear, and Justices War
rem c. Philbrook of Waterville and Arno
W. King of Ellsworth.
By the reappointment of Justice Spear,
kennebec county again has the distinc-
ton of having within it's borders three of
the eight members of the Supreme Court.
By a singular circumstance both Mr.
Cornish and Mr.. Spear will retire from
the bench about the same time, if they
should decide TO take advantage of the
pension provision. Justice Cornish will
complete his third term in March, 1921,
and will be 70 years of age in 1924, so this
will enable him to complete about half of
his fourth term before he retires.
This is the third time in the history of
the State that Kennebec county has had
the honor of providing the head of the
Supreme Court of Maine, Nathan Wes-
ton, William P. Whitehouse and Leslie
c. Cornish, and once the honor of pro-
viding the head of the United States Su-
preme Court, Melville Weston Fuller.
