or record Of the vote cast for that
office in Lewiston does not correctly
state the vote actually cast and asks
that inspection and recount OF the
Lewiston ballots be made. The case
will be heard at next Wednesdays
session Of the Governor and Coun-
Gil.
Edward A. McIlheron contested the
primary nomination with Michael A.
Sullivan, at present member Of the
Legislature from Lewiston. The re-
turn or record, the correctness Of
which Mr. McIlheron doubts, gives
Sullivan 7s3 and McIlheron 779
votes.
The new law-Chapter 233, Public
Laws Of 191s-gives a candidate the
right of inspecting the ballots in the
presence of the city clerk. This was
done by Mr.. McIlheron and it is un-
derstood that he found numerous
ballots which he viii claim should
have been counted for him, instead Of
Mr.. Sullivan. He Immediately petit
toned the secretary of State for a
recount. Secretary Ball secured the
ballots from Lewiston and the Gov
ernor and Council set the above date
for inspection and recount.

Schools for National Guard

Several schools will be run by the
federal government this year for the
National Guard" said Adjutant Gen
eral George Mel. Presson. One Of
these will be at Leavenworth, Kan,
where a few of the ex-service officers
and those who desire special training
can go. Another will be an infantry
school at Benning, Ga. The latter is
one of the best schools ever estab-
lished on military lines in this coun-
try, embracing as it does all lines in
combat warfare, pertaining to the in
fantry and machine gun fire and hav-
ing for instructors officers who have
had actual experience on the battle
line. Captain Brewster of Dexter
and Lieutenant Foss of Waterville
attended this school last spring and
their influence was greatly felt in the
regiment, in their way Of imparting
the knowledge they gained there not
only to the enlisted men but to their
fellow officers.
This school calls for four COM
missioned officers from the Maine
National Guard. They will be ap-
pointed by the Governor through the
adjutant general, on recommendation
of the colonel.
Under the new amendments to the
military law and the immense ap-
preparation that goes with them, the
National Guard will now receive es-
pecial attention and larger appropria-
ton than ever known in it's history.
A very large part of this appropria-
ton is for schools of instruction and
every effort is being made to fgiye
the National Guard commissioned Of
fcers the best instruction possible.
While attending these schools, the
commissioned officers receive the paw
and allowances of the regular army"
General Presson continued: After
watching the work of the Sd Maine at
Camp Devens and their appearance
and the great praise they received
from the regular army officers in
Portland and knowing as we do to-
day that the Sd Maine is one of the
largest regiments in the United
States-if not one of the best-afford-
ing as it does the strong arm of the
law of our national police force.
which is especially true here in
Maine, seems to me that it behooyes
every business man and every patriot
1c citizen to urge the young men of
this State to enlist for the period of
three years, which is very small
part Tor any young man to pay to
help his country, when one thinks of
the great amount the government
does for each citizen"

Pardon Petition

A petition for the pardon of Her
nance Nelson, otherwise known as
Baroness DeBeck, was filed Tuesday
with Secretary Of State Frank w
Ball by her counsel, Major Arthur L.
Thayer of Bangor. The history of
the case is well known to the public,
she with her husband. Leroy Nelson,
having been convicted with burning
their home in Carmel for the purpose
of defrauding the insurance com
panies. The petition sets forth as
follows:
THAT Hermance Nelson of Bangor
on May 4, 1920, did plead guilty to
the crime Of burning a dwelling house
with intent to defraud and was SEN
fenced to one year in the Penobscot
county Jail. She was committed on
May IL, 1920.
She humbly prays that after due
notice and hearing she may be grant
ed a pardon for the following rea-
sons:
That at the time she plead guilty
she did so with misunderstanding of
the law and the facts.
THAT the present condition of her
health is such that she is physically
and mentally unable to undergo the
confinement which a year in the
Penobscot Jail entails; that to do so
would result in serious impairment
OF her health both mentally and
physically"
1t is understood that a hearing
will be given before the Governor and
Council on Wednesday, July %.

purpose Of giving examinations to
candidates for admission to practice

President Giles c. Grant Of Portland;
Secretary Henry Gilman Of Portland:
Walter e. Rowe Of Bath; F. H. Cor
don Of Bangor, and Archer Jordan Of
Lewiston.
But seven applications were re-
ceived this year. This is a very small
number and is due to the fact tina,
the dental schools last year increased
the length of the course from three
to four years. hence shutting off all
graduates for the year 1920. The

Maine Centenarians

During the past year in the State Of
Maine three men and three women
who have reached the age of 100
years or over died. OF these Mary
Goddard Of Durham, who died at
Brunswick at the age of 10s years,
was the oldest. Simeon H. Smith of
East Dixfield and Ebeneezer c.
Leighton who lives his entire life at
Mt. Vernon, were each 102 years at
the time of their deaths, while Jo-
hannah Farrell Of Lewiston, a native
of Ireland, and John Burleigh of
Masardis, an Aroostook farmer, were
by of Albion was just past the CEN
fury mark at the time of her death.
Since 1892, the year Maine was adj
mitted to the registration area, and
deaths were first recorded here, there
have been 154 centenarians die in
this State. The person to attain the
greatest age recorded in Maine was
Scott B. Anderson, a negro, who was
born in Iowa, but who died at Bangor
at the age of 113 years on April 10,
1903. On July 16, 1905, Margaret Nc
Carthy Of Lewiston. a native of Ire
land, died at the age of 112 years
John McDougall died at Mars Hill on
Sept. 3, 1898, aged 10 years.
In this same group of centenarians
is to be included the name of James
Emery who has just died at Winter
Emery was a colored seaman and
presumably a slave in the days be-
fore the Civil War. Five have died
at the advanced age of 10S years, in
the last % years; one at 1O7 years;
and a score or more at los years,
while the majority of Maine centena-
rians have lived TO the age of 100,
101 or 102 years.
One peculiar fact which is brought
to light in looking over the vital sta
tistics records of deaths of the Maine
Department of Health is that two
centenarians of the same family
name have died in the town of War
rem, Knox county. George MontA
gomery died at the age of 1O1 years
and eight months in 1908 while Percy
Montgomery died in 1918, aged 100
years and 10 months. These men
were both sons of John and Julia
Montgomery of Warren.
During the registration period. the
average of five deaths Of centenarians
annually has been maintained in
Maine. the largest number in a single
year being IL in 1916. with nine in
1914 and eight in 1912 and 1903. In
the three years of 1917. 1913 and 1904
deaths of but one centenarian each
year was recorded.
