been mere collecting centers of COM

be centers of political influence. With
the Germans in the United States well
organized and taught their duty to-

make it impossible for the United

policy.
Look at South America. See what

THE WHY OF THE WAR

An address to the officers and men
of the United States army in France by
Mr. H. Wickham Steed foreign editor
of the London Times, contains much of
interest on why the world is fighting
In part he spoke as follows:
"This War Is for the independence
of the World"
ITO me the fact of your presence
here en- the soil of France is symbol
ical of one of the greatest events ever
recorded in human history. l can
think of nothing greater, no precedent
for the voluntary intervention of
people, a democratic people, of 100,
900 in a struggle which to the max
ed eye concerned them not directly and
scarcely indirectly. A distinguished
Englishman was sent not many months
ago to the United States on an Of
fetal mission. He had been often to
the United States and thought he had
some knowledge of your country When
he reached New York and Washington
and saw many Of his old acQuaint-
ances he was quite unable to under
stand how President Wilson had, to
use one of your own expressions, put it
over you He asked himself, How
comes it that this great people, so
prosperous. so far away, seemingly SO
unconnected with the issues for which
we have been fighting, should deliber-
ately, after three years of war, have
thrown in its fortunes with those OF
the European allies? What is the

''He asked nearly every eminent
American of his acquaintance for an
explanation. And for weeks he got
none-or none that could satisfy him
until one day he put the question
to the wise president Of one of your
great universities, who said; There
is no logical answer. An obscsre in
stinct of self-p preservation has brought
US into this W.T., for we felt that if
the western allies should be defeated
or should not be victorious in this war

own security, our own freedom in

In Serious Trouble

Ernest Engstrom, aged il years,
whose people reside in this town, was
arrested Sunday by Constable Marion
Ellis upon request of the city mar
shall of Old Town who holds a war
rant for Engstrom charging with the
larceny ofefrearms in the down river
city. Constable Ellis has been look
ing for Engstrom for several days
but the young man has evidently
been expecting trouble and has been
keeping under cover here and at
North Dexter where he has relatives
living.
After being arrested Engstrom
readily admitted getting the gun at
Old Town front a hardware store
where he hired it claiming he was
going on a hunting trip. He failed
to return the weapon and admits
having sold it in Bangor. He also
admitted playing the same trick at
Buchanan & Mountains hardware
store in this town and a like stunt in
Camden where there is warrant out
for his arrest charging larceny. 1t is
expected that he will be taken to Old
Town for hearing after settlement
is made Of the local case against him.

DEXTER

This town more than doubled its
quota in the United War Work drive,
the amount paid in by Dexter people
at the close of the campaign on Sat
urday evening being over $500.
There was some who were a trifle
late in making their payments and it
was confidently expected that the fin
al amount would not come far from
$500. The campaign has been con-
ducMd by teams Of solicitors with
capNins and under the general man.
agement of Arthur p. Abbott, chair
man of the drive for Dexter Some
good work has been done and again
Dexter has led the other towns in
this section in war activities. The
sums contributed to the work range
from those of three figures to the
smaller donations of one and two dol
lars and the result of the drive shows
the feelings of Dexter people toward
the war which has been brought to 4
victorious close. The same feeling of
patriotism and Iiberality has marked
all of the various campaigns for war
purposes and Dexter has never failed
to double or triple its quota. There
is reason to be proud Of the towns
record during the war and every ef-
fort will be made by the people of the
town to do their full share and a little
more until the peace treaty is signed
and things resume their normal con-
ditions.
Special mention should he made in
speaking OF the United War Work
campaign to the 1iue work done by
Rev. Timothy c. Nancy of st. AIMS
church and the other solicitors of st.
AIMS society. Over $500 was raised
among The Catholics of the town who,
as in the other campaigns. demons
tratel their patriotism and love of
country by their liberal and willing
offerings to help along the great
cause.
