A SINGING REBUKE.

At the Coolidge open air rally at Law
renee Just before the election, the local
Bolsheviki devoted themselves to heckl-
ing the speakers. One of them shouted:
patriotism is nothing but the refuge of
scoundrels." Another amplified the
statement by saying: Coolidge is
scoundrel. Long will win for the down.

The crowd was reused to enthusiasm
and made warm demonstrations of sp-
proval, when Sailor" Henry Ryan, one
OF the Coolidge speakers, pointed to the
chief heckler, and said:
II know you. You're Samuel Bram-
nall, the man who got up in City Hall
and attacked the constitution of the
United States; who said that the flag
was nothing, and that the constitution
wasn't worth the powder to blow it Ito
hell. You're Bolshevik, and nothing
else; and you, who own property and are
well-to-do on m ney that you made in
this country, stand out here and try to
get your fellow citizens to defy its laws.
Let me tell you something, and you 60
tell that bunch of Reds that you belong
to. America never started anything it
couldn't finish. And you, Mr.. Red, will
lind, and soon too, that the ex-service
men of this country are going to see to it
that America becomes the land of one
tongue-the ongue of the constitution
of the United States-and one flag, the
stars and stripes"
At that, there was an uproar of APP
proval, and the crowd pushed forward to
shake Ryan's hand, the leader declaring:

THE GRANGE AND labor. A."

By an overwhelming vote the National
Grange has declined to form an alliance
with organized labor Thus vanishes the
hope of those who are booming labor
party for which they intended to enlist
the strong support of the farmers. thus
also vanishes the coveted backing of the
farmers for other plans of, organized
labor
Members of the Grange committee
which reported on the invitation of Sam
uel Gompers asking the farmers to Join a
labor conference declared that attendance
at such a conference would be fraught
with peril to the Grange. The vote taken
by the convention endorsed fully the
stand of the National Grange Master in
his annual address:
"There is today too much tendency
among our people to class endeavor, class
thinking, class legislation. The interest
of the nation demands the destruction of

PAY DEBTS FIRST

The Cape Cod Canal has been operated
25, 1918. For some unexplained reason
the government wishes to acquire it i'm
mediately. Secretary B 4ker on behalf of
the administration offered its builders
IS, $50, 900 for it, which is, if we rightly
remember, about two thirds of its cost.
The owners refused to sell at the price
voked to decide what should be paid. A
federal Jury was authorized to fix the
price and fixed the amount at SIC, 80l, POI.
Perhaps the government will appeal from
this decision, but knowing Secretary
Bakers propensity to spend money we
do not think there will be much haggling
about the price. The time will come
within the next so years. and perhaps
less, when there will be partially inland
waterway extending from Boston to a
point at or near Newborn, North Caro-
lima. This system must be provided, in part
if not wholly, at public expense and, like
Panama. be under government control.
OF this system the Cape Cod Canal, when
the system is completed, will be an i'm
portant link in the system, and it too
should belong to the government. 1t can
be taken, when needed, by the same
process as now and we think that at the
present time we need 6,80l, 2Ol more
than we need the Cape Cod Canal. The
interest on this sum would be ABOUT
$500, 900 a year, and, Judging by the busi
ness record of the government, the annual
deficit would total at least as much more.

ing the latter date, fur traders made their
way up the river as far as Cushnoc, now
Augusta, and perhaps beyond, for the
purpose of trafficking with the Canibas
Indians who lived and hunted in the vi
cinity Not much is known of the his
tory of those early days but enough has
been recorded to show that the site of
Fort Western was historic long before
Fort Western was built. AS early as
1915 there were about 100 white people
settled along the Kennebec river, and
many of them were at Cushnoc. In
1918, when peace followed the second
Indian war, a stone fort, then said to
have been the strongest fort in the coun-
try. was built on or near where Fort
W estern, a wooden structure now stands.
Succeeding forays and wars devastated
the little forest settlements and little if
anything was left of the old stone fort.
So complete was the devastation that the
names of those who lived at Cushnoc
prior to 1854 are not known, so complete
that local historians consider that James
Howard, who first commanded Fort
W estern is considered by them as hav-
ing been the first settler of Cushnoc. Mr..
Gannett makes this gift in memory of
his mother who died some months ago.
Doubtless the city of Augusta will exer-
else it's statutory rights by taking legal
possession of Fort Western and will
maintain it intact as an historic remind
er of pioneer days and as devoted sons
memorial of noble mother.
