A Joi0t Appeal

p. A most remarkable document, such
q document a. never before appeared
in American history, today goes out
to the American people. It Is joint
appeal by two Of Americas most dis
tinsuished men, men who have held
the highest honors which the people
Of the nation can confer. and who con-
tinue to hold the admiration. respect
and confidence Of the people.
Former Presidents Theodore
Roosevelt and William Howard Taft
met, went over together the great
problems confronting the nation. and
have issued a message Of such sanity
and logic and fair common sense, as
must have mighty influence with the
American people.
Every loyal. level-headed citizen Of
the United States. Of any party or
creed. should read this joint sum-
mary Of conditions and solemn coun-
sci from two Of the worlds greatest
men. It is not a time for binding
ones eyes by narrow political preju-
dice, but a time for broad considera-
ton Of facts. A nations welfare
hangs upon the wisdom of the people
in a critical hour.

One of the mental peculiarities of the
average pacifist is held in common with
the German mind. They frequently ask
the United States and it's allies to state
their terms on which a peace can be
based. No matter how often these
terms are stated the question comes
back with unerring certainty and regu-
larity. The most explicit language fails
to satisfy them. Had the words 'ur-
conditional surrender been used at the
start and repeated with each fresh de-

Editors Letter Box
Memorial to the Bows


Oct. 81, 1913.
Editor Kennebec Journal:
1t occurs to me that the time is
ripe for inaugurating a movement for
erecting a lasting memorial in
honor of the Boys of Augusta who
have served, or will serve, in the War
for World Freedom.
A commission might be appointed
by the mayor, to take the whole
matter under advisement-determi
what form the memorial should take
the probable cost, devise means for
raising the money, and finally to put
the project into effect.
1t will require good deal Of time
and much careful study of all the
questions involved, and it would seem
wise to take 1t up without great de-
lay.
Very respectfully yours.

An Auburn man who has been look

fighter Joe Wier, says that his great
trapping waters were in the Little
Androscoggin, near where the Barker
mill now stands. The Indians once
found his traps. and threw them all
into a deep pool near what is called
Dresser's rips. There is a great
boulder close by and near the shore
Of the Androscoggin river. and behind
