The opponents of prohibition have q perfect right to eX- press their opinions just as the prohi- hitionistS have a similar right to op- pose those opinions. Mir.

DEAD FLIES IN THE OINTMENT A REPLY TO JOHN TWEEZER." i"

Solomon tells LIS, Dead flies cause the ointment of the apothecary to send forth stinking sayour," so doth little folly him that is in reputation for wisdom and honor. One could hardly read the communication which appeared in the last issue of the pieayune from the pen of John Twcezer" without being forcihy re- minded of this bit of ancient wisdom, I am reliably informed hY those who are in position to know whereof they speak that "John Tweezer" is not the authors real name but only his pen name Whoever he may he he wieldS the "Pen of a ready writer and says many things which are wise and true. But when he comes to Geal with the subject of prohibition he inJectS some very malodorous dead flies into the ointment which causes it to stink in the nostrils Of many people in fact after reading that part of his essay one is not surprised that he hides behind a Pen name" for il would take q brave man indeed to sign his own true name 10 such mixture of false logic and misleading statements as this article contains. In fact it is rather creditable to any man that ho prefereS to sign "Pen name" when writing in defense of the odtlawed liquor traffic To dc so reveals the fact that he has some conscience left i'll spite of his advocacy of bad cause.
 But let us examine, in their order, some of the main points in the paper under review. First of ell he adopts the time worn, but utterly misleading phrase0logy of the encmic, of prohhi ton hy writing of 'Sumptuaiy laws v Perhaps if would be difficult to hnd any one phrase which has been so perSislcntly used hy the friends of the liquor traffic Some of US remember that il was CNcn made lo do service al one time in the National Platform of great political party. And yet fl has been CoucmSively shown times without number that this term stump tHary laws" cannot po>s hly he applied Co laws prohibiting the hQuor traffic without departing from all the stand ard definitions of the words The New Standard Dictionary which Is regard cd by all scholars as onN ef the best Of al authorities on the meaning of the English language, defneS Sump- tuary aS follows: Of or pertaining te expense. especially limiting or regulating expense or expenditures, as the action of state restricting by ed'ct private expenditures in direc. tionS where I k deemed injurious. or fixing the ptice of commodities or wages. The same authority defines the term, "Sumptuary laws" as laws that restrict individual expenditures AS to food and clothing These dehni tions are perfectly clear.
 To illustrate their meaning let us suppose that the state should pass I law forbidine any woman in the stat, to wear any kind of Il dress save on, made of plain calico; or q law for bidding any man to pay more thal five hundred dollars for an automo bile. or law forbidding any man t

Lost On Mountain Dimick
q. 4. Ferguson


There are three of the Dimick
Ponds: Big, Little and Mountain.
There are several routes to Mountain
Dimick. We started from Pleasant
Pond, south beach, walked two miles
through "a level country to Little Dim
lex just skirting the shore at the in
let, then followed the Old tote road
which in places Is flowed by beaver
dams. about half mile to Big Dim

a boat and crossed the pond to the
inlet, leaving the boat for climb up
the road to Mountain Dimick This is
the old road, where years ago Charles
Givens hauleI lumber for the Law
rences'. The bridges on this road
were made of large cedar logs and
are practically sound today There
are many large cedars standing. the
largest might scale as much as three
hundred feet or more.
Mountain Dimick Pond is 1000 feet
above sea level and If the weather is
warm and your load heavy the
chances are that YOU will want to
stop occasionally before reaching il

started out with our fishing tackle,
bait and intention to extract some of
the denizens of the pond from their
watery homes.
1t was getting along towards night
although we had not wasted any time
but the fish were not biting We poled
and padded the raft to the inlet where
we discovered an old boat partly pull

present to make any objection. Ii

HERE AND THERE IN THE
big WOODS COUNTRY

The salmon fishing season at Will
mantle (Piscatauis CO.. is now on and
.nme fine catches have been have
been made there since the ice went
out April 22nd. The famous Wilt
mantle pool is the spot frequcnted
most by the fishermen during the
early part of the season and it is eX-
pected that fishing will be better at
this point this season than for iev-
eral years. This is due to the high
water and absence of logs to bother
the anglers. Among the early catch
es this year were two salmon caught
by e. c. Elliot. of Cambridge, Mass.
three by James Caulfeld of Framing
ham. MATS; four by Ray Davis, of
Guilford, one of which tipped the
scales at six pounds. Sherwood Jack
son. of Guilford, landed two and
Frank Ebens, of Boston, landed four
good ones.
The ice has cleared from the West
Branch and it is expected that boats
will be making regular trips of Ches-
nncook Lake shortly Last year the
lake waa clear of ice on April II, the
earliest date on record
Last year 1862 forest fires burned an
area of nearly 10000 acres and caused
Il loss of over $500. 900. Carelessness

most fires. Forest Commits Sioner
