baukruptcy, suddenly found their
optimism justified and their years OF
ton and hardship repaid By two years
o; undreaued Of prosperity.
Likewise the cocoaaut planters
have been carried along on the crest
OF the wave OF success. During the
early part OF the year, prices Jose
steadily as American manufacturers
demanded the product at any cost
But freights also rose. This led many
business men to figure that II it were
possible to sell the raw copra-the
dried meat Of the cocoanut-at a
profit. it would be much more profit
able to extract the oil locally, save
a large part Of the freight costs and
count that saving as profit. During
the year. fully twenty cocoanut oil
mills, all OF small capacity were start
ed in Manila alone and In the provfn-
ces as many more were inauGurated.
The tobacco planters. manufactur-
ers and dealers have also had a year
OF unparalleled business success. The
demand for Philippine tobacco and
cigars from the United States has
been such that Philippine growers
and planters have been unable to
meet It. The year saw the cigar pro-
duction OF the Islands very largely in
creased while the acreage planted to
tobacco was also largely increased.
A similar story can be told in every
line OF Philippine business. The coun-
try Is literally rolling in money

With the exception Of sugar, all de-

When the price OF sugar IN the
United States was fixed by the food

under existing trans-Pacific rates pro-
fitabIe transactions in Philippine su-
gar were no longer possible. Samuel
Ferguson, president OF the govern

washington in the interests Of the
sugar men and got a pledge of addi-

The Third Maine Regiment.

Things are progressing well with the
Third Maine Regiment Company in this
city and there is every reason to suppose
that within week the one hundred men
have been secured and that the organiza-
ton will have been begun doing their as
signments under government recognition.
This week Capt. Redlon of Company
A, OF the Third Maine Regiment in Port
land, is in the city for military drill in.
structions and gave his first drill at the
Belfast Opera House last evening. There
was large attendance of the men and in
all the movements they showed marked
improvements. Three drills were held last
week at the Opera House on Thursday
and Saturday nights and Sunday after
noon. These were under the direction of
recruiting officer Orrin j. Dickey, assist
ed by Walter j. Clifford of this city.
Among the new enlistments in the Bel
fast Company during the past week are
Earl Brown, Vernard Hall, Frank A.
Downes, Elmer L. keene, Karl M. Dickey,
Willard S. Whiting, Jessie Leroy Staples
and Ralph S. Jackson. There are now
about twenty who have passed the ex-
animation and been certified for military
duty with this company and will be given
the oath of the government this week.
1t is expected that Capt. Rodlon will re-
main here until Saturday, but in any
event there will be no drill on Sunday.
Plans are already being arranged for
big rally to be held in this city the COM
ing week if it can be arranged, when there
will be speakers of State wide acquaint-
ance and that will be the closing event in
the drive made for the recruiting of the
company to the army strength. After
the company has once been formed it is
not expected that it will suffer any
trouble from securing sufficient number
strength, which will be $50 men.
Everyone is looking at the matter in
different light than they have ever done
before and there is every reason to sup
pose that this Company, which will have
high class of Belfast young men, will
be credit in every way to the city and
to those who have worked for its organ
ization. There is nothing that can pre-
vent the Company being organized now
and those who have not favored it must
suppress their feelings, else they will be
understood to have German sympathy.
