Takes Money to Make the Mare Go

Takes Money to Make the Mare Go
Lewiston SUM
Mr.. Jack continues to be interest
ing.
1t seems that Ontario has some
thing to lease. The Province owns
vast areas of wild land, and the prop
erty rights necessary to the develop
ment of water power. Ontario is a
great landowner.
There is the fundamental difference
from Maine. Maine is not a great
landowner Maine has not water
power. nor the land rights to develop
water power. Maine has nothing to
lease. So no property rights, by
which to control the policies Of those
who do own the property.
Maine does not own the water
power. Cannot own it. except by
paying what it is worth. Nor then,
except to use it for some public pur-
pose.
Os the owner, Ontario ought to
make good use of it's property for the
public benefit. AS a former owner
Maine can do nothing. Amending the
Constitution of Maine will not bring
back the title to the wild lands, and
put Maine in the class with Ontario.
1t is no better than if Maine had
never owned the wild lands.
Now If you and I. Mr.. Jack, owned
that hill over in Poland, with it's pure
water and gorgeous sunsets and
magnificent hotel. we might lease it
to E. p Kicker; among the condi-
tions. that when you and I get real
hungry for a high class feed, Mr..
Kicker must have 1t ready for us at
the most conspicuous table in the
great dining room. With two or three
auto loads of our friends and relatives,
if we feel like it. But the devil Of 1t is
we don't own the hill. We have no
power to compel that great dinner.
not until we are flush enough to back
up our demand with the spondoolix.
Even then Mr.. Kicker might allow
that we didn't look enough like mil
lionaires, and so might find the seats
all taken.
That is the painful difference be-
tween being lessor and being out
in the cold Between being an owner.
or being just an outsider. You and
amt in it over there in Poland; Maine
amt in it up there at the headwaters.
Maine and we are just outsiders.
And Maine cannot fix herself over
into an owner Just by fixing over her
Constitution; no more than you and
1 can register over in Auburn q good

WOULD WALK FLOOR
At Night Just Seeking
For Some Relief
Ciaremont Woman Was Almost
Physical Wreck Before She Got
Tanlae But Feels Just Fine Now,
She Says

Il am now enjoying better health
than have in years and can't re-
frain from letting others know how
thankful I am for what Tanlac has
done for me-" said Mrs. G. L. Johnson,
81 High street, Claremont, N. H.
During the past ten years I suf-
fered so from stomach trouble I be-
came almost a physical wreck. Medi-
cine seemed to do me no good and for
q long time 1 was on q light diet, but
this also failed to help me. There was
such pressure of gas in my chest
that my heart palpitated frightfully
and couldn't breathe at night with
out being propped up on three or four
pillows. My stomach bothered me SO
l couldn't sleep a wink night after
night and sometimes l got up and
walked the floor. was intensely
nervous and any unusual noise al
most drove me distracted. I had
dreadful backaches, suffered great
deal from rheumatism and at times
my hands and feet would be numb. I
certainly was in a wretched condi-
ton.
But it seemed Tanlac was just
what l needed, for my appetite is
splendid now, everything eat agrees
with me perfectly, sleep as well as I
ever did and mornings feel thorough
ly rested and have strength to do my
homework with ease. In fact, feel
as If l had been made over again.
Pm so glad didn't overlook the Tan
lac testimonials, for it was through
them that 1 commenced taking the
medicine and have the good health
enjoy today. Tanlac is just grand"

IN MEDIATE ATTENTION
NEEDED

The condition Of our railroads Is
become more ernphatically than ever
before a subject for the consideration
OF all the people. This is especially
>true Of Maine at this time. The con-
sideration needs to be immediate.
We must have the facts and apply the
conclusions without unnecessary de-
lay.
The report of the committee APP
pointed by the Governor is one all
should read. 1t explains the condi-
tons very clearly. The committee
is made up Of practical men, &C
Quainted with affairs, and their char
acter is warrant that their conclu-
sions have been honestly as well as in
diligently arrived at. The railroads
are sick, they are in dire need of the
immediate application OF reputable
remedies. They are now suffering
because Of the administering of the
quack variety. Their rates have been
regulated through political channels,
their employees look to politics as the
means of fixing the wages, so that. as
one writer expresses 1t, 1.-THE dollar
generally buys only two-thirds of
what it did, but in railway securities
it buys twice as much" And those
securities are in our banks,-the
Maine Central Railroad it is said is
largely owned in Maine-and the peo-
pie Of the State are involved in it's
affairs. There is no escaping that
fact. We should deal with those af-
fairs in q business-like way.
The committee found that relief
might be given by reducing wages or
by increasing rates or by renting q
percentage Of the taxes. This help
must come from outside the owners,
and in considering efficiency we must
bear in mind that interference of the
government prevents, in some degree,
eficiency in management. In the
matter Of increased rates it must not
be forgotten that the industries of
this State are already handicapped by
high freight rates.
Tho committee favors revision of
the national agreement under which
wages are fixed, but does not report
IN favor Of labor making all the con-
ceasions. With regard to taxation
the committee found that Maine i'm
poses . higher rate than do other
states. This being 80. the railroad
property being largely Maine's it
would seem equitable at least, that
Maine should concede something in
tbs way of taxes. She should not be
called on, however. to provide way
to pay the unreasonable demands for
wages or to bear the cost of I'M
reasonable regulations and exactions.

She has a thousand Photographs, Men

And in the center Of them all. My pic
ture has its place.
Each one, could it but whisper, would
tell a sorry tale,-
OF laugh, and Jest, and broken faith,
and love of no avail.
Too late. they saw and understood, the

And that she had but played with

At recent meeting of the library
committee Of the Seneca Club of
South Paris it was the unanimous
opinion of the members that it would
be wiser to work for library build
ing costing not more than $40, 900, in
stead of attempting the more expen-
sive building embraced in the plans
already shown. The committee feels
that creditable edifice could be con-
structed for that amount, which
would meet the needs of the village,
especially in view Of the general re-
duction to be expected in the near
future in construction costs.
When a sporting goods company
in Rockland offered to present a fish
line to every boy or girl under the
age of IA years who would apply at
the store during the afternoon on
recent Saturday the company was
amazed to learn that there were so
many young hopefuls this side of the
Mississippi They swooped down in
front of the store before their dinners
had chance to digest and made such
a formidable array that a resident
of the town was obliged to swing into
the breach as volunteer traffic cop.
By the terms Of the contest which
followed prizes were to be awarded
to the five boys or girls from the 23S
who obtained the lines, who could
catch the greatest number of fresh
water fish during the afternoon. In
an incredibly short space of time a
youngster appeared trailing fine
string of sculpins and founders, and
was crestfallen when informed that
his catch were not known habitants
of fresh water. OF course he didn't
receive one of the regular rewards,
but the judges awarded him a con-
ISOLATION prize.
Solomon Cloudman of South Wind
ham, who is the last living member
of a family Of II, is nearing the CEN
fury mark. On Sunday last he cele-
brated his ninety-fourth birthday at
him home about two miles outside Of
the village. Solomon is still active
physically, and works all day at his
carpenters trade, sometimes walking
from his home to the place where he
happens to be working. He has a
good record in construction work be-
hind him, there being many houses
in town built under his direction, and
with his able assistance. 1t addition
to being a first-clasS workman, he
has always been able to live up to his
reputation of being an excellent
scholar and writer of no mean ability.
Mayhap he's as wise as the we'll
versed old sage who talked with the
butterflies, when he took his walks
abroad"

lens, an actual total of 850,O00,0O0
persons, or approximately half the
worlds population, find in Israel the
inspiration for their religious faith.
A theistic system that can dominate
so large part Of the human race
must be something more than de-
pository Of tribal traditions or a COL
lection Of dessioated creeds; it must
contain spiritual substance upon which
the soul can feed.
In its fundamentals, both Of prin-
ciple and of operation, Judaism is a
rational religion, which in its general
scheme must appeal to the sound So
cial philosopher. 1t makes human con-
ditions dependent upon human ac-
tons, thereby promoting morality and
equity. Its theory of compensation,
comprehending equally reward and
punishment, is based upon the inexor-
able law Of cause and effect. Chris
tianity, on the other hand, ignores all
logical consequences, and, with its vic
ious doctrine Of vicarious atonement
that repudiates personal responsible
ty, removes the strongest incentive to
rectitude and puts a premium on evil
doing.
For an adequate understanding
thereof, the Jewish religion mus. be
considered in dula sense-theologic-
ally and ethically. Theologically, it
represents the practical aspects of the
Jewish people; officially, it represents
their idealistic nature.
Despite his intense idealism, the
Jew never loses sight of life's practi-
calities. This mental attitude is re-
Elected largely and clearly in his re-
ligion Instead Of dwelling upon a ne
bulous nowhere in an indeterminate
future, he has a present objective Of
proximate tangibility. He demands
that His God deal fairly with him, ac-
cording to proper business principles;
for services rendered he exacts a re-
ward Of reasonable immediateness.
He is solicitious for his terrestrial
welfare and desires n realization OF
his dreams.
Religion to the jew is more than a
methodology. II is life. Mans event.
ual meaning is contemplative. II is
identity.
Judaism is living force, a vital
verify, constructive factor, tan
gible, palpitant sociol power in the
concrete world-organism.
One Jewish editor has epitomized
the matter thus: THE religion Of the
jew is an attempt to understand the
infinite and apply it to the individual
as n member Of mass"
From this We can perceive why Ju.
daism holds that, in fulfillment OF
prophetic hope, the Messiha will come
to redeem, not the Jews alone but all
mankind The Messiah, truly eonceiv-
ed, is not a parsonage, but the sym.
Dol Of condition.
Christians, on the contrary, are
evangelically exclusive; they insist on
a restricte salvation, a religious trust,
a spiritual monopoly. Their plan Of
redemption is copyrighted, and they
brand all others as unauthetic. The
sweetest JOY to which the average or
thodox Christian looks forward, when
he shall reach heaven, is that Of lean.
