$1,000 Personal Damage
Suit at Bangor

Bangor, Me, April 1.-THE case Of
Helen Siegel, who brought suit for
$1,000 personal damages against
Jacob Bolnick. David Strair and Sam
Smith, was called in the Superior
court today. According to the plain
tiff, the suit grew out of an episode
which occurred in the Russian He
brew Synagogue.
1t appears that Smith, the leading
man of the congregation, and Siege
husband of the plaintiff, were having
discussion of church matters with
considerable feeling. when Mrs. Sic

gument and sit down. She claims

Smith and that whensshe raised her
hand in protest he struck her and

the opening when the attorneys for
the defense asked for IA recess. II
was then announced that the cas-
had been settled satisfactorily to all
concerned,

In Spite Of Negligence.

The present strike of railway men
simply emphasizes a menace which
has long existed, the menace of
starvation which rests in the power
of those who run our railroads. The
public should not have needed this
last demonstration to convince it of
the danger, which for several years
has been most apparent. And yet
how many of this public, urged their
representatives in Congress to pass
the Cummins bill with the anti
strike provision; and how many re
sent organized labor's threat to de-
feat Mr.. Cummins because of his eff
forts to protect the country against
this very thing? In short how many
will bother their heads to provide
for their own salvation? ~
1t is difficult to work up sympathy
for the individual or collection of in
dividuals that hasn't the gumption to
ilSip ltSSll. WHY uO
one sympathizes with the public
not even the public. Soak" it az
often as YOU like. And so by this
process of reasoning if the women
and children of New York must
starve because of lack of transport
tation it will be the fault of the pub
lie rather than of the strikers.
II this starvation period may be
postponed fer few years it is posi- :
bic that ways may be found for saw
Ing the public even from its own
negligence. Here is one by which,
m'na 's shipment ap' of ss 5"m pounds
land, Maine, to New York city by
auto trucks, because of the rail tie
up. The present auto craze may
look like n, people gone wild in an
orgy; but may a people equipped
with motor cars and good roads and
the sense of squirrel to store sup
plies in season, be starved out by a
railroad strike?

Augusta Seeks the Most Effective
Methods

When achievement is desired the
need of organization is urgent. That
is the reason advanced for a cham
her of commerce. Though city
possess many advantages and splen-
did possibilities its ~forward-lookins
public spirited men and women must
cooperate if the community may
reap the benefits that it deserves.
There is a slogan very popular
with civic commercial organizations,
that "cities do not happen-they are
built by the energy and intelligence
of men," Their citizens had faith
and courage in and for the future.
Augusta has ever been fortunate
in citizens of that sort, but has now
to decide what it will make of its
wonderful material progress, already
achieved; what methods it may best
adopt to further and secure it. A
like problem is being met in other
cities, and their citizens are cheer-
fully assuming their Civic RESPONSE
bilites. Assuredly there is every
reason to suppose those of Augusta
will not fail to do this.
Community achievement is brought
about only in one way and that is by
united effort. One hundred men and
women of Augusta intend next week
h give their time to building up a
chamber of commerce of not less
than four bundled members. Meas
ured in dollars their time is worth a
very large sum. This is their gift to
YOU You can repay them by join
ing the movement for community
accomplishment.

Recognizing the Danger

There can be no settlement of pend
ing wage questions while this illegal
action continues. We insist that every
member of these brotherhoods do every
thing within their power to preserve
their existing contracts, which, if aoro-
gated, may take years to rebuild. The
laws of all of these organizations pro-
vide penalties for members engaging
in illegal strikes, and these penalties
will be enforced"
This declaration from the heads of
various railway organizations in no
wise exaggerates the mischief that
would be done to those organizations
if their contracts are broken and a
large part Of their membership is in
open and successful rebellion. 1t
would indeed be long time before
confidence in labor could be restored

The Switchmen's
Strike Lowers
Price of Potatoes

Houlton, Me, April 1.-THE Aroos-
took Daily News tonight says:
The potato market has been in an
unsettled condition today owing TO
the spread of the switchmen's strike
from Chicago to New York and other
points. Owing to this partial tieup
of transportation Aroostook county
dropped from Il high water market
of ten dollars per barrel on Saturday
to between four and five dollars to-
day; but the street price is no accu-
rate index of the price of potatoes
where transportation conditions per-
NIT them to be shipped
Aroostook Federation of Farmers
Officials through the Aroostooll
Daily News today advises farmers
who have potatoes on hand not TO
allow themselves to become panic =
stricken and let their potatoes go for
the too low prices which are being
offered because of the strike All ad-
vices at hand are to the effect that
it cannot be of long duration and is
apt to be adjusted within a day or
two. 1t is estimated that tht bulk of
potatoes remaining within the coun-
~ could be shipped out in thirty
days under normal conditions, and
there are nearly sixty days of the
shipping season remaining.
Mr.. Guy c. Porter. Sales Manager
of the Federation has just returned
from an extensive tour of the east
ern markets, and he reports that
there is practically no supply in
sight except from Aroostook County.
This means that a great portion of
the country must buy it's supply Of
potatoes for the next six weeks from
Aroostook.
Orders have been received by the
Federation today from Jersey
points on the d. l.. & w. netting the
shippers between nine and ten dol
lars.
Summing the situation up; there Is
no occasion for panic or alarm. The
probabilities are very strongly in
favor of the strike being settled be-
fore the end of the week and the
moment that occurs there will be an
eager demand for Aroestook potatoes.

"Puttin9 OF"
Never put off till tomorrow

Let not the sun of tomorrow
Witness souls dark defeat.

But think if the sun on the morrow
Should rise on task vet undone,
To find that the worker lay silent,
rnmndful the days rising sun.
1t may be only a hand clasp,
Or the rays of joyous smile
1t may be only cheering word
The shadows of sin to >beguile.
Oh then let's not wait till tomorrow
To lend what is asked Of by Fate,
Remember the words of the Proverb,

Then let's not put off till the future
The task that today should be done.

Who Is Their Best Bet?

Since the date of the Michigan
primaries, when the first choice Of
the Democrats was Hoover who had
already declared himself a Republi-
can. and the second best bet was
Governor Edwards whose platform is
the full citizen, we have been won-
dering whom the Democrats could
actually nominate for their candidate
at San Francisco.
OF course there is plenty Of ma
terial and probably almost anybody
except Hoover would accept the
nomination, provided it were handed
to him on a silver platter. Gerard,
Palmer, Cox, Owen. Baker, Daniels,
Bryan, McAdoo, Hitchcock, Edwards,
Simmons, have all been more or less
in the list of potentialities. and We
are not sure that this is the entire
aggregation. Then there is Presi-
dent Wilson who has not said word
either way, much TO the embarrass-
ment Of the aforesaid gentlemen.
Up to date a total of a9S Demo-
cratic delegates have been chosen,

"No!" Says Hoover


The emphatic NO" returned by
Mi. Hoover to the enquiry whether
he would accept the Democratic
nomination for President if it were
offered to him will do much more
than satisfy the legitimate curiosity
of the chairman of the Democratic
executive committee of Massachu-
sets and the other Massachusetts
Democrats for whom Mr.. Chandler
Wood sought the information. 1t
stamps Mr.. Hoover as a regular
once more, his political receptivity
apparently applying only to the Re
publican nomination. 1t serves no
tice upon the Hooverites outside the
Republican fold Ahat they must eth
Ell abandon their Democratic affiia-
tons. or disavow the role of Mug
wumps." and Join up" with the Re-
publican regulars if each would wish
to satisfy his hearts desire and cast
IA primary vote for Hoover for Pres
ident For unless the Republicans
nominate their reenlisting party
brother. his supporters outside the
fold will not have a chance to vote
for him next November on any other
ticket. That at least is the inference
to be drawn from Mr.. Hoovers latest
announcement.
1t is now possible for the Republi-
can party to consider Mr.. Hoover as
presidential availability, untcrror-
lied by the fear that he may bolt
the ticket next November and sup
port the Democratic nominee or head
a third party For if his three years
association with the Wilson Admin
istration has SO prejudiced Mr.,
Hoover against it's nomination for
President that-he is unwilling to ac-
cept it himself, it is hardly probable
that he would support the candidacy
of the Democrat who will accept it.
Furthermore. if three Years is
enough to make Mr.. Hoover Il reg
ular Republican once more. is it pro-
bable that the majority of the AM
erican people after nearly eight years
of subsection to the.rule of the Dem
ocratic party will be any less weary
Of the load than Mr.. Hoover's reply
to his Massachusetts admirer shows
the former Food Administrators to
be? Whether Mr.. Hoover. General
liberal Republican receives the NOM
nation of the party of Lincoln and
Roosevelt. it is now apparently rea
sonably certain that the party can
count upon the support of Mr.. Hoov-

Watch Hiram


Hiram Johnson will not be nomi-
mated at Chicago. But there is a
menace to Republican prospects for
1920 in the Michigan result. When
he gets into political fight, Johnson
is a person of rasping characteristics.
Consideration for party success af-
fects him to no considerable extent
If it had not been for the Johnson
type of personal politics out in Cali
fOrnia, Charles Evans Hughes would
today be President of the United
States.
If Johnson; could win one or two
more successes of the type he won
in Michigan it is quite possible that
the Johnson Borah group would
adopt rule ruin policy at Chica-
go. There has been talk of a third
party movement this year headed by
Hoover. There is infinitely more
danger of trouble within the Repub-
lican party as the result of activities
by men like Johnson and Borah than
from any thing that Hoover and his
friends are apt to do.
