error of the grange committee state

error Of the grange committee state
ment is that last winter the accred-
tied representatives of certain water
power corporations offered to pay the
state 100000 for the lease of a
certain water power and storage To-
cation. This was known as the
Dead River reservoir bill. Would
these corporations have made that
offer il the state owned nothing?
'Tf those locations were worth a
million dollars to the corporations on
question on a lease they certainly
would have been worth much more
on an outright sale by deed. The
Kennebec charter called for deed
or sale, the Dead River for a lease.
1t Is wrong for the Grange master
and executive committee to make the
statement above referred to, for
some of them, at least, know the
facts. 1t is strange that the people
of Maine do not see the handwriting
on the wall, for there are certain
interests that ultimately intend to
secure what little Is left of state
owned natural resources.
unfortunately some of our news
papers hailed the Grange statement
as convincing message, whereas
they should have analyzed it care
fully. and explained it to their read
ers. 1t was a message in support Of
Daily Kennebec journal. [microfilm reel] (Augusta, Me.) 1870-1975, 1924-04-21

MISLEADING ON water
POWER, SAYS GOV.

tkat tie statement signed by the
state master of the Grange and its
executive committee and advocating
the Kennebcc reservoir charter,
which was once passed by the last
legislature and then hastily repealed
b. the same body, misleads the peo-
pie OF the state.
ut is true that the state today
docs not own any developed water
powcrs,' meaning by that, dams,
electrical machinery and equipment,
continued Gov. Baxter.
s"The state, however. does own
water power sites and water storage
locations and 1t is distortion OF
language, n play upon words. TO say
that tic state does not own any
water powers

States Attorney Edwards S. Allen

morning for a tour of the villages
and towns in Burleigh county. They
will stop at all villages and towns
and will meet with local police au-
thorities and organizations. in the
interest of arming all small towns
for their protection against rowing
bands Of yeggmen.
Wherever it is possible the coun-
ty officials will urge that the towns
hire night watchmen to guard the
places. In villages that can't af-
ford the guards arrangements will!
be made to have an organization
perfected which will assign two men
to guard each night in relays. These
guards will have some secret means
of communication established with
all the rest of the members of the
organization and in case of raid
on the town they will call upon the
other members.
Similar organizations will be es-
tablished in towns which have the
paid guards, and the watchmen will
have a means Of rousing the men,

they need assistance.

UPRISING IN
CHINA FEARED

Shanghai, Aug. 29.-The spark ig-
hitting all China in open warfare was
seen today in the impending conflict
in the eastern part of Kiagsu pro-
vince, when Chi Shien Yuan, the ag-
gressor, expects to drive out his rival
Lu YUM Hsiang, Tuchun Of Chek-
lang province, who has ruled the
congested section of the province
since his appointment under the de-
posed Anfu party in Tuchun of
Checking province. Lu retained his
power after the overthrow of the
Anfu, said to be the pro-Japanese
party in China in 1919.
Gen. WuPei Flu who has ruled as a
military power in China since he de-
feated the army of Marshal Chang
Tso Lin war lord Of Manchura in
1922 has ordered his troops from
Chi Hi province, where Peking is
located, to the aid of Chi Shien Yuan.
1t is believed that any weakening of
Gen. Flu would furnish Chang Tso
Lin his long awaited opportunity to
move southwark against Peking, an
expedition for which he has been
preparing since his defeat two years
ago.
