Same Old Sentinel!

The Wateryille Sentinel is working
its shirt way up between its shoulders
because it didn't see the item about
Governor Milliken's interview with
Chairman Hays as it first appeared.
The Sentinel admits that it saw no
interest or significance in the item as it
was circulated Sunday night, and as it
was published by the Kennebec jour-
nal Monday morning, and SO threw it
in the waste-basket. But when the
Sentinel editor got his beagle heye on
the Saturday report with it's gravity
attachment. the Importance of the
thrown-away news began to dawn. and
he began to cast about him for an eX-
cuse for not telling his readers at once
Of the crying seriousness of Governor
Milliken's chances" The best thing in
sight was the Boston Herald's Satur-
day dispatch, and 50 the Sentinel
awokc to the sterling Republicanism
and public responsibility of the Herald
as a newspaper.
At the same time, the Sentinel began
to take notice that any paper which
published the report after Chairman
Hays had declared that he had been
misquoted. had "juggled" the news.
But perhaps the Sentiners mail has
been delayed and it hasn't yet received
the news

Perry Scope" tells the following in
the Bangor Commercial:
The postmaster in an eastern Maine
town has a son in the service and soon
after the boy sailed for France one of
the citizens of that town who is de-
cidedly pro-German in his sympathies
called around and told the postmaster
he hoped the transport would be sunk.
Il hear Uncle Sans agent came out
from behind the counter and knocked
the man down. The latter threatened
court proceedings. but he was told by
the Judge re whom he carried his COM
plant that he would be promptly
thrown olt through the court room
window if he attempted any such thing.
This pro-German sympathizer then
took his grievance to every lawyer
from Lubec to Machias in an effort to
have someone handle his case"
against the postmaster but every at
torney refused to have anything to do
for nothing a complete and strongly
worded opinion of man who "ouid
make such a remark.
The man who tells this story says,
That is the only proper medicine 1or
those who make pro- German talk. He
is not fully right. however. Even such
medicine is not harsh enough for sucn
s, being. He really ought to have
been carried out to sea and sunk as
deeply as possible. after being sealed
