plea of nolo contendere when the
case was heard in the Cumberland
court, Andrade was at his home
when the assault which resulted in
the death of Walker was committed
and did not know about it until
hours afterward.
The assault grew out of a lockout
and strike in the city of Portland,
Attorney Leigh pointed out. An
drade held the position of agent and
delegate of the Firemen's and Water
tenders Union at the time when the
strike order went forth a year ago.
1t appeared that on the evening be-
fore the assault took place, the un-
ion at Portland had held a meet
ing at which it had been decided to
picket the ship Mary Ba. .et which
had just come into Portland har-
Dor laden with coal
In all of the plans made by the
union, Andrade had stood for law
and order and when it appeared that
there might be violence aboard the
boat, Andrade had refused to be a
member of the party and was not
with them when the assault took
place. Nevertheless, Andrade was
arrested the next day and held with
Sin other respondents in connection
with the crime. And at the court
hearing, he had pied nolo contendere
TO the charge and together with the
other respondents who were actually
involved in the assault, received
sentence.
Francis O'Brien. United States
shipping commissioner at Portland,
testified in behalf of Andrade. stating
that he had known Andrade to stand
for peace and order even when it
appeared that he would be voted out
OF his position in the union by mem
bers who thought that he ought to
be more active.
Mrs. Andrade, wife of the prison.
er, testified that she was married in
May 1920 to Andrade, and that she
is now employed in the mills at East
Boston to earn money for the sup
port of her mother, her brother, IA
years of age, and herself. She stated
that her husband was at home on
the night of the assault and did not
know Of the results until o'clock
the next morning.
No opposition was offered to the
granting of the petition.
No one appeared for the petition
ers in the pardon cases of Joseph
Digan and Joseph NJ Garvey, who
are serving a sentence of eight
months in the Waldo county Jail at
Belfast for larceny. Hon. Ralph 1.
Morse. county attorney of Waldo
county, was present in opposition
to the granting of the petition, stat
ing that this was one Of the weak
est of cases to come up for pardon.

Highway Route Between
MacWahOc and HOultOn

Reports come to the office of the
State Highway Commission that
parties travelling through Bangor
for Aroostook county have been dir
ected to take the route from Mac
wahoc to Houlton by way of Hay
nesville. This is the shortest route
between Macwahoc and Houlton but
it. is not by any means the best route.
The route to follow is the one which
has been color-banded by the High
way Commission. The route turns
to the left in Macwahoc. runs
through Silver Ridge, Crystal. ISL
and Falls and Dyer Brook. This road
is improved practically it's whole
length. Construction work is going
on in two places but the road is kept
passable all the time. A good por-
tion of the route via Haynesville is
unimproved road. it is narrow and
slippery and travellers are in dam
ger OF having an unpleasant exper-
fence on account of slipping into the
bitches Of the road, especially when
meeting or passing other traffic. The
Highway Commission desires to urge
people to use the Island Falls route
as marked by color bands on the
poles.
Between Bangor and Macwahoc the
route is as follows: At the top of
State street hill in Bangor, turn to
the left over Broadway, to saltwater
avenue. then turn right. following
saltwater avenue to saltwater cor
ner: take left hand and followed
through Alton and Lagrange over the
gravel horseback, thence to Rowland.
