A Railroad System for Maine

NA'NcNCii H.
In the current discussion of the fu-
ture of the New England railroads as
affected by the possible consoIida-
tons under the Transportation Act
II is evident that there is a'strong
body of opinion favorable to the Gre
aton Of single New England sys-
tenn as recommended by Professor
Ripley and other students of trans
portation problems. But it should
not be assumed that the only opposi-
ton to this plan will come from adj
Vocatcs of division of New England
lines that would give those of the
northern section to the New York
Central and would incorporate the
New Haven system with the Pennsvl-
vania. If such combinations were to
be disregarded hereafter, it is still
likely that there would be opposition
to the proposed New England svs-
tenn
indications that New England
might not act as unit in the matter
are to be found in the PROCEEDINGS
OF recent meeting held in Portland
by the Maine Foreign and Domestic
Commerce Commission and by a spc-
clai committee of the State Chamber
OF commerce. Portland newspapers
report that prominent business men
from all parts of the State were in
attendance at this meeting and gave
assurances of cooperation in having
before the public a plan for a State
railroad system. with the further
provision that the New York Central
should be given access TO the State.
BRIEFLY, the plan is for the New York
central to take over the Worcester
Nashua & Portland division of the

GET EMOR THEY'LL GET YOU

The tent caterpillars are coming
out OF their nests and getting on the
trees and the crops, The next few
days are days of grace for those who
would spare their acres from this
pest. The caterpillars have to be
killed quickly or the battle will prac-
tically be lost, for the work Of de-
stroying them on the trees is an
almost endless one.
one subscriber writes the Journal:
AS l ride through the country l
am appalled, and sickened by the
prospect" People who can,
from their doorstep. count scores of
these nests on their own property or
along the roadside adjoining them,
are too indifferent or too listless to
oNtermina.e them. There ought to
o. regular crusade made against
them" ~--------~------ 1890

SCATTERED WITH THEIR OWN
MUD

1t is getting to be quite evident
why the Democrats began their at
tack on the attorney general. This
will become palmer as the prosecu-
ton of war fraud cases progresses,
unless signs fail.
In trying to bcsmirch the attor-
ney general for his connection with
the original pardon of Charles w.
Morse they have despatched leading
Democratic lights. Cordell Hull,
chairman of the Democratic Ma
tional Committee, was, according to
the records of the department of
in getting Morse released. James NJ.
Cox, the Democratic candidate for
President, was another, Senator
Robinson, colleague Of Senator Car
away, another; Senator Glass urged
Taft to pardon Morse; likewise Rep
resentative Burns of Tennessee as
sisted, as did Clark of Florida, Sem
ator Overman of North Carolina,
Senator Fletcher Of Florida, Semi
tor Owen of oklahoma, Senator
3ankhcad Of Alabama, Senator Mon
ey of Mississippi, Senator Alexander,
afterwards a member of Wilson's
cabinet, and these are but part of
them.
And Attorney General Daugherty
is going right ahead with the prose-
cution of the war fraud cases just
the same.
