ESSEN, Jan. 2n.-(By The
Associated Press.)-Pay day
in the Ruhr brought labor to
the fore as one of the most
formidable obstacles in the
path of the French and Bel
gian experts who in their firm de
terminal on to exact r%eparation pay

some OF the Prussian state mines and
arrested several OF the magnates.
To the murmurings Of discomfort
at the presence OF French bayonets
before several Of the pit heads there
was arrested today. an atmosphere
of. unrest and uncertainty as the
workmen began to wonder where
their pay envelopes were coming
from.
Delegates from the unions were In
formed last evening by the French
that France was unwilling to assume
responsibility for the wage payments.
On the other hand Herren Krupp and
Thyssen gave the workers to under

They framed an ultimatuIH to the
French military authorities demand
ing the withdrawal of the soldiers
and the release of Herr Rochstein
within "a hours. The latter request
was refused point blank. ~whereupon
the workers adopted a resolution
which threatened a strike on Monday
unless the troops were withdrawn
and the director set free.
Workers at the Moeller pits at
Gladbach have already laid down
their tools and there were reports
today that technical experts at other
places had also quit work. The

THE USE OF THE FLAG

The use to which the national en-
blem flown at the State Capitol was
put yesterday by order Of the Gov
elnor, at half mast on account of the
death of his beloved dog, we regard
as questionable and regrettable. APP
parently the Governors conception of
the fitness Of the occasion differs
widely from that commonly held with
respect to the use Of the flag. With
out attempting to criticize the i'm
pulse which may have prompted the
order we are in sympathy with the
spirit of the protest, which we UNDER
stand is quite general, not only
among those interested especially in
military matters but among others as
we'll.
Except that the flag shall not be
used in trademarks and for advertis-
ing purposes there is no Federal law
pertaining to the display Of it. Gus
tom regulates that. With regard to
this particular use Of the flag we
quote from the Manual Of Military
Training" 1.-THE flag is placed at
half mast as signal Of mourning for
a naval or military person or for a
civilian entitled to naval or military
courtesy"
Daily Kennebec journal. [microfilm reel] (Augusta, Me.) 1870-1975, 1923-06-02

but probably few persons who follow
politics closely expect that the gov
ernor will take such course. 1t is
generally believed that Governor
Baxter will be candidate for third
term as governor and will contest for
the nomination with Mayor Albert r.
Day of Bangor who is already in the
field and whose candidacy is meeting
with very strong support. rot only in
the eastern counties Of the state but
in the western section as well.
The expectation that Hon. Frank
harrington of Augusta, president Of
the Maine Senate, will enter the field
for the Republican nomination for
governor has been greatly lessened of
rate and although Mr.. Harrington is
non -committal. it is said to be the
belief in Kennebec county that Mr..
harrington will not be candidate at
this time. There have also been sug-
gestions that Congressman Wallace
White would prefer term as gov
ernor to another term in the National
House of Representatives but it ap-
pears very doubtful if Mr.. White
will enter the gubernatorial primaries.
Should he do so it would be to the
advantage of Mayor Day as the sit
uation is viewed in this section.
The situation as regards Judge

In Maine Politics
Bangor Commercially

\bdHSOT SOIIlIueTCldl)
Under the primary system it has
been the custom in Maine for the
candidates for the larger Offices to
make their announcements fully a
year beforehand, but although the
primaries are but little more than a
year away very few candidates have
entered the lists and the politicians
will tell YOU that the party contests
are likely to be of a limited nature.
Hon. Frank Gurnsey Of Dover-Fox-
croft is an announced aspirant for the
Republican senatorial nomination as
is Col Hume of Houlton, and Hon.
Bert NJ. Fernald. the present incum-
bent wishes another term. Mr..
Guernsey was q candidate against
Mr.. Fernald several years ago and
the result was in favor of the latter
by very narrow margin. Mr..
Guernsey and Col. Hume have a very
strong argument in the fact that the
two Maine senators today are from
the western part of the state and that
the great territory east Of the Ken
nebec is not represented in the United
States Senate. When the elections of
senator We're made in the Maine leg
islature the two sections of the state
were represented and from the sup
port that the Eastern Maine candi-
dates are reported to be receiving it
seems to be a very fair assumption
that the nomination Of the Repub-
lican party is likely to come east.
| There are continued suggestions
that Governor Baxter may enter the
contest for the senatorial nomination

The Story
(By David Cory)

cousin Cottontail has invited us
over this evening"" said Lady Love,
the Little Jack Rabbits mother, as
she stirred the lollypop stew. "She
has just put in a radio outfit so we'll
come over in time to hear the Jack
Rabbit Man tell his stories"
"Ho, hal" cried the little bunny,
that will be fine!" and he gave a
hop, skip and a. jump out on the
porch where the little canary lived in
her gold cage.
Hello! little rabbit boy" shg twit-
tered. What makes you 50 happy?"
Didn't you hear what mother just
said?" he asked with a twinkle Of his
pretty pink nose.
NO." answered the pretty yellow
bird. what did she say?"
"That we are invited over to Cousin
Cottontail's to listen to David Cory
tell bunny stories.
Just then something happened.
Isn't it a shame things so often hap,
pen which are unpleasant?

ny stories tonight" growled a deep
ugly voice and there, just outside the
old Bramble Patch stood Old Man
Wolf. Dear me! how cruel he looked,
his big red tongue hanging out Of his
mouth and his long sharp teeth
