ANOTHER TYPE OF ROAD
OFFENDER

Just the kind of driver one would
select to meet on the turns of the
highway, a careful man got into
trouble one day this week. He passed
n car near the top of Rincs Hin,
crossing Che line TO do so but near
enough to the top to see that no car
was coming to interfere. He paid
uncomplainingly but the next time
he had occasion to so up the hill no.
ticed two drivers do as he had done,
only an inspector did nc happen to
he on the spot.
Now this was not the fault of the
inspectors, they cannot be in all
places at the same momert. but it is
unfortunate that every transgrcssor
is not brought to, book, that some of
the worst escape the penalty, for =
time
There is another offender who
needs attention, and that is the
driver of a team that doesn't keep
to his side of the road. The driver
Of a car, speaking of this, said he
was caught on this hill behind a
loaded team going slowly in the
middle of the right half of the road,
paying no attention to the signal,
just going stupidity on his way in the
middle of the road So that it was
impossible to pass him without
crossing the danger line. a five dol
lar fine would quicken the wits or
such offenders and contribute to the
safety of the public.

Need For Cash In England
Forces Sale Of Treasures

London, Sept. 1S-(A. p. by MaiD-
Art collectors from America have
sent more treasures to America
since the Var than were purchased
by Americans during tire 20 years
previous to 1914.
English collectors explain that
this is the result of the need for cash
which is being acutely felt in Eng
land. Many formerly wealthy art
collectors are forced to sell their
possessions in order to meet high
taxation and living costs. There
seems to he 10 such condition among
the American collectors. for their
English agents are everywhere and
always ready to seize upon any
treasures that are for sale. In fact,
so anxious are some uf me agents 10
buy that they have adopted the
method of calling ON well known
collectors and making them offers
for various objects.
Art objects to the value Of s10.-
100000 were shipped to the United
States last year.

French Wines Again

There is reason to believe that

a natural death.
Such seems to be the case In Ber-
lin.
French wines. which We're boyeot-

last January, now are offered in
whispers TO known ratrons at some
of the first class Berlin hotels. and
are displayed in show windows of
down town wine stores. Even
French cOgnac is served. provided it
is asked for quietly, at many of the
bars patronized by foreigners.
The sign mo French or Belgians

magic over all Berlin almost as soon
as the French troops set foot in rs
sen, have disappeared from most first
class cafes and restaurants. They
are, however, still displayed prom
inently at many Of the shops in the
suburbs and in the beer halls where
tho patrons are chiefly Germans.

A MERE MATTER OF BUSINESS

Tie treasurer of the Amoskeag
Manufacturing Company, one OF the
leading cotton manufacturing plants
in New England. reported to the
stockholders at the annual meeting
this week that future prospects of
the company are not encouraging,
that under present conditions it is
difficult to dispose of all the product
of the mills" that due to the last
strike the company had an operating
loss of $4,000. Now if New Hamp-
shire would only pass 4S-hour law
how that would improve conditions
for the Amoskeag Company. er-jUst
a moment-perhaps we arc wrong.
Come to think OF it the advocates of
the S-hour law declare that it in
Crcases production whereas under
existing conditions the company's
management is unable to dispose of
what it already has on hand.

A WORD FOR MAINE ENTER
PRISE

. We are confident the readers of
the Journal experienced a feeling of
qualification on reading the report
talet local men, who have been par
ties to building up a profitable in
dustry. who are acquainted with it's
possibilities. also with the adj
vantages of doing business in this
city, have decided to take it over and
make of it n Maine enterprise, one
we trust, of many others, and for
which there is inviting opportunity.
In Augusta, Hallowell and Gardi-
manufa curing that is inviting.
Judging, as an outsider. by appear
anccs, 1t seems proper to conclude
that both employers and employees
have found this field mutually
profitable, a condition, we assume
from the news reports, which may
not be found in all of them Such
successes breed others, make for an
atmosphere of growth in any COM
munity.
All know that such a condition is
caNse for qualification, that it is one
to" be encouraged. 1t is what our
chambers of commerce, local and
state, are working for, 1t is that
which our property owners are seek
ing, 1t is what those who desire 70
obtain employment should seek: it is
one Maine must improve upon If II is
to grow in population and wealth.
FOR several years the public has been
aware that nature was lavish to
Maine in resources for water power;
it has endeavored to protect this
birthright, to utilize its advantages.
And while we have need of foreign
capital and enterprise it is up to
Maine people to be fair, even gener-
Gus, willing to cooperate, to con-
tribute. where. the project seems a
safe one. The wisdom of such a
course ought to be evident. Obser-
walton Of successful investors will
show that they much prefer to put
their money where they may watch
it. They endcavor to know how to
watch it, how to estimate its merit.
They have outgrown the glamour.
the vision of gold at the end of the
distant rainbow, which has in the
past lured so many of Names hard
earned dollars out of Maine, and not
always into profitable fields.
