Augusta Democrats
Organize Victory Club
for "a Campaign

The first move of the presidential
campaign in this city has recently
been made by the Democrats in the
formation of Victory Club. Similar
clubs are being formed in the prin-
cipal cities of the United States and
already there are clubs of this char
acter in 20 states of the Union.
The club is formed in anticipation
Of the presidential campaign in the
fall of 1924 and it is hoped that a
club of this character will be formed
in every one of the 5000 larger cities
and towns in the United States. This
would give a membership of well over
100000 Democrats. The money thus
subscribed is being used by the
National Democratic Headquarters
for q comprehensive campaign of Or
ganization and education for the
voters. The National Headquarters
believes that by thus making pre-
parations for an intensive campaign,
they. can elect their candidate.
Attorney Gordon Gallert OF this city
was in charge of the formation here
of such club and the minimum of
20 members was easily reached. Cor
dell Hull, chairman of the Democrat
'ic National Committee has been
strong in the advocation of such a
measure and speaking before a con-
ference Of Democratic leaders the
other day he said. "The campaign
is on now so far as educational work
Is concerned. The Democratic Ma
tional Headquarters has adopted the
policy of being a strictly neutral
agency so that the question of can
didates Is not discussed nor are such
subjects as the bonus, which is a
controversial and non-political mat
ter for both parties"

that in the case, of eight year old

plant, which has been situated at
kepnebec Siding for some years and
which for several years sawed out
5,OOO.OO0 feet of box boards each
year. win soon be but memory.
The mill has been idle for two or
three years and the machinery has
been sold to the Lawrence Plywood
Co. and will be transported to Car
rnbassett, Maine, where it will be
installed in a mill there. The build
ings and land have not been sold.
A crew of men has been at work
for several days removing the brick
foundation from under the two
large boilers which furnished the
power for the mill, and a crew of
Triggers from Boston is expected to-
day to take down the large CHM
ney, and to remove the boilers and
load them for shipment. The re-
mainder of the machinery will not
be moved until spring.
The machinery in the power
house consists of two large boilers,
which furnish the steam to drive
a large engine. This engine had a
fly wheel 16 feet in diameter, with
a two foot face and weighing six
IollS. 4uc power from tIllS engine
was in turn transmitted by two
foot belt to a large dynamo, which
generated electricity to run the va
rious machines in the mill. Ar
rangements were also made so that
in case of failure of this plant. pow
err from the lines of the Central
Maine Power Co, could be used.
The mill when it was first built
consisted simply of a large mill for
saving box boards. This was in
1914 and ran for about two years
on this basis. In 1916 a box mill
was added which utilized much of
the box boards sawed by the mill.
This mill at this time sawed about
$4,000 feet of box boards each day
and the box mill took care of be-
tween $4,000 and 10000 feet of this
lumber, turning it out in the shape
of box shocks. This amount would
fill between two and three cars with
knocked down boxes each day. In
addition of course there was some
of the box lumber which. was sold
as sawed, ana the saWdustF ana
