BANGOR Gas Rates Increased

The Public Utilities Commission
has announced it's decision on the
proposed increase in gas rates of the
Bangor Gas Light Co, approving the
same as emergency rates under war
conditions They make a net rate OF
81 80 per thousand cubic feet for the
first 5000 feet per month, with reduc-
tions for several classes Of larger
consumption.
The commission held a public hear
ing at Bangor September 4th. at
which no opposition TO the increase
was made. The decision states that
the company earned above operating

months of 1918 showed net loss OF

The net loss per thousand cubic
feet in 1918 has beer 2.95 cents per

ued until after the war the appro-
priation made by the last Legisla-
ture for survey of the boundary of
the Maine-New Hampshire boundary
line. Mr.. McHugh had an interview
with Governor Milliken during the
afternoon and was assured that
everything would be done in Maine to
keep active the plan for the survey
It appears that the appropriation
made by New Hampshire-$3000, the
same as made by Maine-will lapse,
unless used this year, unless some
means is devised to hold it over. The
war conditions. of course, have pre-
vented any work of that nature being
done.
If Maine can join in keeping the
appropriation good until the war is
over, Mr.. McHugh is certain that the
survey can then be quickly made and
the much-disc ussed boundary line
from Kittery to the Canada line, be
settled to the satisfaction of all in
terested.

Der requirements and 700, 1000, 900 fee,


to supply the pulp requirements.
Governor Milliken is in full ac
cord with the move to secure this
large number of men and will lend
his every influence and endeavor to
bring about successful termination
Of the great task being asked Of this
State By the government
The Importance of securing the
men will be seen when it is stated
that the Orono Pulp G. Paper Co. is
the only company in America fur
nishing the peculiar type of pulp that
is used in lining shells and cart
ridges. Before the war this kind of
pulp was imported from Germany
Our Maine establishment at Orono
now supplies better material than
the German make-and it's manufac-
ture must not cease. A failure to
keep this supply of pulp up to the
very limit would be to cripple our ar
tillery in Trance.
Maine lumber is also required for
airplanes, both for this country and
the Allies; for the construction Of
environments for our army; for ties
and bridge timbers for our army en-
glneers in France, and for the rail-
road administration: materials for
the shipyards and docks for the navy,
for ships ard sh:pyards for the En-
Urgency Fleet Corporation and the
Shipping Board; for housing the
workers; for boxes for the shells and
munitions; as we'll as for the millions

PUBLIC UTILITIES AND
JUDGESHIP VACANCIES

The gossips about the Capitol fig
ure it out that Governor Milliken will
select dark horse, that is, a person
whose name has not been mentioned,
as a member of the Public Utilities
Commission to fill the vacancy
caused by the death of John Z. Bun
ker of Bar Harbor. 1t is expected
that the appointment will be made
sometime this week. The term is for
seven years and the salary is $4,000
per annum.
Although the law does not so re-
quire it is the general impression at
the State House that Gov. Milliken
will appoint a Democrat to this posi-
ton, inasmuch as Gov. Haines Sc
lected a Democrat, Charles w. Null
len of Bangor, when the first com
mission was appointed. and Gov.
Milliken did likewise when he ap-
pointed Mr.. Bunker. 1t is understood
that the Governor wants to appoint a
Democrat from the eastern section
of the State. preferably man with
business experience or an attorney
who is not engaged in the active
practice of the law.
Among the names Suggested" as a
member of the Public Utilities Com
mission are those of Ex- Mayor Reuel
j. Noyes of Augusta; Hiram p. Far
row of Belfast; Curtis L. Lynch of
Machias: Edward Chase of Barring:
Alfred S. Crawford of Fort Kent
, Winfield S. Brown of Mars Hill;
Erastus j. Carter of Stonington: An
drew p. Havey Of West Sullivan;
Thomas d. Austin Of Pennington;
Frederick Bogue Of East Machias;
Bion Bradbury. Jr., of Portland; John
A. Cunningham Of Ellsworth; and
Samuel w. Gould of Skowhegan
1t will be remembered that Gov
William T. Haines appointed Ex-
Congressman Gould as a member of
this commission, but the Governor
and Council refused to confirm that
nomination.
Governor Milliken will also in a
| few days appoint an associate justice
of the supreme judicial court to fill
| the vacancy caused by the retire
ment of Associate Justice George E
Bird of Portland, who has reached
the age of 70 years. The names
most prominently mentioned here al
the capital in connection with the
judicial appointment are those OF
Attorney General Guy H. Sturgis
Harry r. Virgin, United States Dis
| trict Attorney John F. A. Merrill and
Judge Joseph E. F. Connolly of Port

ton: Arthur S. Littlefield of Rock

He has expressed a wish to play OF
series with the American League

SON." said the Cubs manager. 1--WE
ought to be given the title. We are
in the lead by a fair margin and have
held II for some time.
IN order to settle which big league
is the better, l suggest that we play
a series with the Red Sox, or with
whatever other club is in front when
we have to suspend. That the entire
country may enjoy the series, it
would be the proper thing to play
one game in each major league city"
