Charles B. Chase, a familiar figure

has passed away. He will be greatly
missed by all who knew him. not only
by relatives but by the poor whom
he has cheerfully helped over many
rough places. He was truly a friend
of his fellow men. None ever went
to him with honest woe or honest
want in time of need and left saying,
II asked for bread and he gave me

evasion and was sometimes consid-
cred stern in melting out justice. Only
his near friends knew OF many dol

the wolf from the door Of the poor.

Editorial Comment
keepinu Il Up

tBdnSOf COTllllefCldll
Governor Baxter made a speech at
Oakland Saturday evening in which
he again made severe structures upon
Hancock county and it's officials, say
ing that an official (meaning Sheriff
Wescott) has been given a good
coat of whitewash." The Governor
has several times made similar state
ments since the sheriff of Hancock
county was found not guilty of the
charges brought against him. The
verdict was found by the executive
council the only votes against ac-
quittal being cast by Governor BaX-
ter and his brother.
The Governor fails to accept the
verdict and is acting very unfairly in
his attitude. Sheriff Wescott had his
day in court and was acquitted. Fair
play demands that the verdict be
accepted. Governor Baxter is taking
an improper advantage of his posi-
ton.
1t appears to be an impossibility
for the Governor to admit himself in
error. Always it is the other side
that is wrong. The council is wrong
in its decision in the Hancock county
case; the legislature was wrong in it's
attitude upon the Kennebec Reservoir
matter and some 80 or 40 other mat
ters of legislation; the Maine public
was wrong in believing that the state
flag should not be placed at half
mast as a token of respect for the.
Governors dog.
To our mind every speech that
Governor Baxter makes indicates his
intention of running for a third term.
He is now devoting the larger por-
ton of his speeches to the matter of
prohibition and is apparently at
tempting to make this the primal is
sue in his campaign. He Is not
saying much about state operation of
water powers. possibly realizing that
his position thereon was not one that
appealed to the. voters.

This President Will
Be Independent

Lisbon. Nov. IS ca: +. by Mail)-
Senior Teixeira Comes, the seventh
president of the Portuguese republic,
is attracting much attention from
the people because of the demo-
cratic way in which he goes about
his business. He is reported to have
said that he does not wish to see
his electors from behind the closed
windows of his automobile; that he
wants to be a president who thinks.
folks and walks abroad like anyone
else.
He has acquired the habit of taking
a walk before breakfast, and when 1T
was suggested to him that it was not
the custom he is said to have replied
We'll, from today on it will be-" To
make his answer more emphatic he
started for a walk in the park of
Ajuda Palace and held a long con-
versation with a white haired gard
ner who had not the slightest idea
he was talking with the president of
the republic.
The president was not aware that
it was the custom for the police to
closely guard his every move on such
occasions as going to the theatre.
One night noticing numerous squads
of police saluting his car he inquired
anXiously as to the reason for their
appearance and if there had been
any disturbance. Told of the custom
of guarding the president he said:
Then we'll take another route for
a change" and the presidential car
switched off to a side street causing
CONSERVATION among the guards who
had waited in vain for his coming
alonS<their posts.

POLITICAL PRIvATEERING

The Germans are accused OF hav.
ing disregarded all rules Of warfare
and the world protested to be out
ragged by the methods adopted and
declared that war was being made
impossible.
There are recognized rules OF pro-
cedure in affairs legislative and poll
teal. 1t always has been found wise
to observe these. If they are not
observed it is conceivable that a con-
dition might easily be reached In
making wise legislation impossible.
Someone has said that If all res
pect be lost for Congress then Con-
gress, and the representative govern
ment of which it is the expression,
also will be lost. At this writing at
tempts are being made to prevent
placing any political party in respon-
sibility. Bryan is aiding by his coun-
sci the intrigues Of LaFollette.
A writer in the Washington Post
recalls that when Bryan was In Con-
gresS he voted Tor q special RUE un-
der which the House was compelled
to vote as a whole for more than 600
amendments to the Wilson tariff bill,
defending his course by saying: I'VE
are simply putting power in the
hands of the House to conduct its
business and to stop delay" Now he
is urging a combine to delay the
business of Congress and relieve leg
islators of responsibility for legisla-
ton.
How many Of the taxpayers are
aware that this political privateer-
ing that has been going on in Con-
gress is helpful to those who wish to
prevent any reduction Of taxes?

THE AIR ABOVE US

The money capital-they did not
take account Of the brain and
patience capital they had used-in-
vested by the Wrights in their ex-
periments in flying down among the
sand dunes of North Carolina TWEEN
ty years ago was around $500.
Twenty years later, aside from the
millions being invested for COM
mercial aviation purposes, govern
ments are spending enormous sums
in apprehension that some other
country will rob them of control of
the air above.
This country Is spending $27,000,-
600 annually where she spent during
the war over three hundred and
eighty millions: even soviet Russia is
getting money from some source
with which to buy facilities for
aviation and France spending an
nually nearly eighty-five millions is
causing England to increase her
aviation expenditures to over fifty
millions. All this and more inside
two decades, until the air above US,
what with aviation and radio grams,
is not unlike that above a hive of
bees. And now a French inventor
claims to have plane which can
fly 375 miles per hour.

Mortality From Cancer
In Registration Area

Washington. D. c., December 49,
The Department OF Commerce an
nounces that compilations made by
the Bureau of the Census show that
S0,93S deaths were due to cancer in
the death registration area in 1922,
which comprised about S5-3 per cent.
of the total population of the United
States, and if the rest of the United
States had as many deaths from this
cause in proportion to the population
the total number of deaths from
cancer in the entire United States
was $4,000 for 1922, against a cores
ponding estimate of $4,000 for 1921.
The death rate from cancer in the
registration area in 1922 was S6.S
per 100000 population as against Sc
in 1921. Only five states show lower
rates for 1922 than for 1921. In COM
pairing the death rate from cancer in
ona state with that in another, the
Bureau uses adjusted" rates in Or
der to make allowance for differences
in the age and sex distribution of the
population. because. generally speak
ing, only persons in middle life and
old age have cancer. so that state
with many old persons may be ex-
pectcd to have more deaths from cam
Ger than state with comparatively
few cid persons.
The highest adjusted cancer rate
for 1922 i; 1868 per 100000 popula-
ton for the state of Rhode Island and
the lowest is 53.1 for Tennessee. For
a few states adjusted rates have
been calculated separately for the
white and ~colorcd populations. In
this group of states the highest ad-
iusted rate for the white population
is 92.5 per 100000 for Maryland and
the h:1he.t for the colored population
is SIT also for Maryland. The low
est adjusted rate for white population
is 52.S for Tennessee and tho lowest
rate for the colored population is
