up in lonely vigil through the long
| hours of the night waiting for their
return. BY daylight terrible gale
was blowing and tremendous seas
running, and there were no boats
staunch enough to go out in search
| of the missing men. F. N. Johnson
got a. call through to ROckland, word
was sent to the coast guard, and by
noon a U. S. cutter was sailing by
Black ledge searching for the men.
| They were rescued"
| Llewellyn V. Joyce, chairman of
the republican town committee, then
spoke on Public Interest He said,
| in part: <'For over thirty years
| have found government officials in
terested even in isolated places, and
| willing to give time to necessary in
vestigation of propositions. Our in
terests are their interests. To see
that every possible provision is made
for successful business operations in
all localities is their assigned work.
How can we do successful business
without cable communication with
the mainland, when we do not know
market reports and conditions? Our
mail service is too infrequent and
too slow for successful business
operations.
what does the United States
Government do when derelict is
reported out in the ocean? 1t sends
out a government vessel and either
blows it up or lows it in to port and
has it put into condition to again
function properly Swans Island is
now a derelict out in the Atlantic
ocean, adrift, without communica-
ton. The government can either
blow us up, or tow us in with cable.
No one wants to blow up Swans Is
land. So we confidently expect to
have the cable"
On motion of Harry Johnson,
duly seconded, the chairman APP
pointed Seth Stockbridge, G. F. New
man and Herbert Joyce committee
to formulate resolutions. The COM
mittee reported the following which
were adopted:
Resolved, That the United States
government having made telephone
connection with nearly all the coast
light stations, that the few remaining
stations are just as important and de-
serving, and should have telephone
connection made before the coming
winter, with the object in view of
eventually having storm signal SER
vice maintained at or near the several
light stations for the protection of the
lives and property of the busy fishing
industries along the coast of Maine;
and
Whereas, The western part of the
State coast is fairly well supplied with
above mentioned signal service sta
tions, yet Hancock and Washington
counties are neglected; therefore be it
Resolved, That the above named
counties, containing sea-coast of
over eighty miles where large num-
bers of boats and larger numbers of
citizens are engaged in the fishing in
dustry, and are deserving, should be
given the same protection as other
sections of the coast of Maine.

Show Need of New BUILDING
by Evening News Correspondence

IBy Evening News Correspondent
kE1PORT, May 14:-The over

or a new school very forcibly before
the Board of Education. The schools
are crowded 10Y and will be over
crowded from this time on until the
pupils can be accommodated with
more room. The board after looking
Tor available building quarters final
ly have decided upon the Wyckoh
property on Broad street which in
Guides two whole blocks. This prop
efty has been offered to the board
at a concession, the price asked be-
ing $4,000, which is $4,000 less than
the property is selling at.
The board has been given until
the middle of June to determine
whether it would be feasible to
purchase these lots with the view of
building a new school thereon. on
tuesday, May 81, an election will
be held here when the citizens of
the borough will be given the oppor-
tunity of voting on the question.
If the plan is carried, the payment
of the lots will be arranged to ex-
tend owe a period of years so that
the taxpayers will not be overbur-
dened.
AT the recent meeting of the
Board of Education upon roll call
every member voted In the afiirma-
tive as to the purchase of these lots
for school purposes. They are ideally
located and seem to be about the
best that could be purchased for this
purpose, facing on a paved road and
located in one of the best residential
districts of the borough.
