facing a serious situation, with no
increase in freight cars and Govern

Ny dear Wilhelm:
Before we started this war. any

It's good work all right, Wilhelm,
but if you don't watch out You never
can use Made in Germany" after the

know. An article marked "Made in

Sea and Shore Fisheries
Oath Times.)

Appointment of the new commission of
sea and shore fisheries in accordance with
the act OF the last Legislature recalls to
many the importance of the fishing in
dustry to the State Of Maine. Where her-
ring used to cost the many sardine fac
tories along the coast Of Maine from &c.
to Sec per hundred, this last fall some
brought as high as $4.15 per bushel. and
an average of about 500 per oushel In
one weir alone last summer in Penobscot
bay it is reported that the owners stocked
about $4,000. enough so that they have
established a shipyard at Stockton. There
are numerous weirs in Frenchman's Bay
and Passamaquoddy Bay. where the tota3
stock for the season was over $4,000.
Some say that the weir or pound at Small
FONT has Melted its owners In past sea-
sons many thousands Of dollars. In addi-
ton is the lobster industry. which brings
to Maine many hundreds of thousands OF
dollars, probably millions. The seiners
for mackerel also had good season last
summer while the trawlers and hand lin
ers report the best season Of their lives.

Editorial Comment
Harrington Chronicle.)

We read in some of the state papers
that Gov. Milliken is losing popularity
with the Republican party because he
is too much Of man and too little of
politician, and because his appoint
ments are not always as suggested by
some of the party leaders. Naturally
we read these things more frequently
in the opposition papers than else
where, yet we read them, which shows
that thoughts are beginning to turn
toward the coming convention and the
later election. The Chronicle believes
that Gov. Milliken is none too much Of
man and none too little Of politician
to suit the people of Maine. and that
the better enforcement of law and the
general reign Of law and order which
have existed during the past year are
approved by the majority. We know
of some good Democrats who hope to
have the privilege Of voting for Gov
Mlliken Just because Of these things.
