stones?
Why your dog bites the stone which
you roll for him when he has found
It.. or gnaws the stick you throw, Is
not quite clear, unless 1t be from the
instinct Of his primitive ancestors to
bite and kill the game run down in
the chase.

they do not read them; that they
throw them in the waStebasket; vel
these government clerks. one hun
dred thousand Of them, are here In
Warrington, and It must be neces-
sary to keep great many Of them
just sending out this useless stun.
Congress knows that the stun
goes into the waste baskets. 1t has
received the protests Of newspapers
thruout the country against the
waste. Il tried to check 1t. Presi-
dent Wilson objected to what he
considsss interference with the
powers OF the executive and vetoed
the bill. 90 that the paper waste
and the 100000 clerks" busy al
wasters on salaries arc the respon-
s.bility OF the president and the adj
ministration.
CoAsressman Mann, OF Illinois, es-
sAyed to analyxe the cAuses-not
the reasons for there is no reason in
it--of the white paper waste and the
exepnse Of printing and distributing
this fiux Of printed matter. He said
that:
This sort OF extravagance in print
irg It not chargeahle to any political
administration. 1t 10 Just the natural
tendency ana desire Of men who
wish to put into print something that
has emanAted from their brains-or
lack Of gsains-and it 10 not entirely
confded to administrative officerss
because the congressional record
shows that feeling prevades even the
sancity OF this chamber.
People do not read the Congressional
Record. The newspapers a. . rule
throw II in the wastebasket withou,
taking or the cover. and nearly
everybody else does.
So an army OF clerks and its ord
nance department OF printing presses
will remain bustly wasting taxes and
print paper that the tendency and
desire" of department heads to put
into print something that emanated
from their brains" may be sratified.
But 1t is an expensive luxury.

Of thnse who don't stop to think the

the bright and shining promises.
When farm labor - on = six hour
basis and union wages prevail, what
will be the outcome in agricultural
states? Brookhart poses as a re-
publican and will oppose Cummins
for the United States senate on the
republican ballot.
Breokhart Is socialist, nothing
more or less. He Is allied with tho
socialistic interests aud Is using all
sorts OF camouhage thru his press
agents to pull the wool over the farm
ers' eyes in an effort to get them
lined up, with the labor unions TO
boost him into the senate. When the

Injunction Against
Disseminating Elec-
trio Freight Service

Portland, Me, Oct 5-On petition
of the Royal River Packing Co. of
Yarmouth, Justice John a. Morrill,
of the supreme judicial court has di-
rected that temporary injunction
be issued against the Cumbc rland
Power & Light Co, enjoinins the lat
ter company from disseminating
freight service to the plaintiff. The
court orders the c. G.. p. & l.. Co
to continue its service to the Royal
River Packing Co. both incoming
and outgoing over the Yarmouth line
and likewise over the spur track at
the plant of the plaintiff company.
Justice Morrill, declares that he
believes that the freight service
heretofore rendered the plaintiff by
the defendant should not be dscon-
tinued. pending decision on the
rights of the parties. The court fur
ther enjoins the defendant company
from disposing of its freight cars
necessary for such service and from
converting such cars to other uses.
Further hearing on the matter, il is
expected will be held at later date.
This action came subsequent to
the announcement made in July by
the Cumberland County Power e.
Light Co that it had given control of
it's freight service to the Androscog-
gin & kennebec Street Railway Co.
