FIGHTING TO THE FINISH

Admiring the courage but deplor-
ing the Judgment of Attorney Cen
cral Daugherty, the editor of The
Public Ledger makes these COM
ments:
~ good many months ago they
set the dogs on Harry Daughcrty.
The mob began gathering at the
crossroads a long time back.
Every time he opens n window he
can hear the baying OF the blood

He has become lonely and

he stands with head bloody but as
yet unbowed. The first instinct of
the man is to fight. No matter if
the dam has broken and his friends
are running for the hills, lie shakes
his fist at the oncoming flood. His
own old time comrades may be
hammering the gallows together
and the mob swinging n rope out

A Strange Objection


Residents of Mt. Desert Island
have learned with some surprise
that opposition has arisen to the
plans for road construction within
the Lafayette National park. That
there would he objection to the
plans has not been supposed for a
moment and indeed much of con-
struction that plans a new road
from the vicinity Of Eagle Lake
across the island with n road lead
ing from this up Green mountain
has already been accomplished. a
large amount of money has been
raised by subscription. one summer
resident giving in excess of 100000
and a splendid improvement is I'M
derWay.
Then came news that United
States Senator Pepper of Pennsyl-
vania. who has q summer home on
the island, is opposed to the road
construction on the understood
grounds that it would bring many
more people to the island, which
hardly appears a valid ground for
objection for ii member of the Uni
ted States Senate to take.
The Lafayette park has proven a
fine attra elton and has brought and
pleased many visitors but much of
the large acreage Of the park Is
practically inaccessible to visitors
except those who visit it on foot.
Rond construction will enable many
Daily Kennebec journal. [microfilm reel] (Augusta, Me.) 1870-1975, 1924-02-27

more people to enjoy the attractions
of the park and it is very difficult
to find any valid argument in OPP
position to the road construction.
We had supposed that the idea OF
national parks is to make them
Fairgrounds for the people as well
as the preservation of natural at
fractions, including the wild life. y
park that is largely shut off from
the people, is q park with but n
small proportion of its potential
value. But few of the visitors to
Mt. Desert island have the time
and the vigor to make pedestrian
trips through the park. A splendid
start has been made on Mt. Desert
island for n national park that Will
be OF service to the people and the
opposition of n few persons. even OF
high position, should not cause the
federal government TO fail in the eff
fort to bestow the advantages of the
park upon the greatest number pos
siblc.
If Senator Pepper clings to the
idea of keeping the attractions of
Mt. Desert for n favored few and
objects to opening the island to
visitors, there remain other resorts.

Dear me-" cried the bunny boy.
''be sure YOU keep it tied. But, who
are you. to- carry so much danger
inside an old sack?
Il was once a rag picker In the
Wind Country" answered the old
man. "One day. l found a ruby on
the street, but when l picked 1t up,
it burnt my fingers. so l dropped 1t
into my sack. Had l not quickly tied
it up. the rags would have caught
fire and destroyed all Wind Country.
Now, l dare not open it for fear
the winds and the fire lightning
will come out.
Just then. all of a sudden, a
great crashing sounded through the
forest, and, the next minute, a wild
boar, with eyes of flashing flames
and breath like steam, came rushing
toward them.
I'VE are lost" cried the old man,
dropping, in his fright, the bag of
winds.
Quick as wink and maybe
quicker. the brave little rabbit undid
the string. Out sprang the winds
and the lightning, tearing up the
trees and hurting them down the
| mountainside. And before the wild
boar could come a step nearer, he
carried far, far away.
You shall have the fiery ruby,
| said the old man gratefully. You
! have made better use of it than l.
Thank YOU" answered, the bunny
| boy placing the ruby in his pocket,
and setting out once more upon his
| journey. AS for the little old man,
he threw his empty sack over his
! shoulder and turned back to the
Wind Country. Maybe he thought
| this time he'd ill his sack with quiet
| little breeZes.
+; This fiery ruby may prove use
! full" thought Little Jack Rabbit, as
| he hurried along. for it was now
| getting late in the day. Suddenly IL
, grew dark and had it not been for
| the rubv's fiery sparkle, he might
| not have been able to follow the
| path into the next story.

How the people living in the coun-

Il matter that is perplexing, Year by
year less and less inclination on the
part of the young doctors to settle in
the country is in evidence.
1t is now possible for a ship to

board. If someone is taken i'll the
ship officers can get into communi
cation by radio with a hospital on

what to do and what medicines to
give.
The time is not far distant when
every farmhouse will have a radio.
Is there any reason why they may
not also have a medicine chest" Here
would arise the difficulty Of notify
ing the hospital or town doctor, of
their trouble but this surely will not
prove insuperablC.

hops so fast that sometimes I can
hardly keep up with him. Yes in
deedy," as an old colored nanny
used to say to me when / was a boy,
this little rabbit can hop fast and
oftentimes even faster.
BY and by. after a while. as he
went lipperty lip, clipperty clip over
the leaves and over the stones,
over the moss and the pinetree
cones, he met an old man carrying
a great sack on his back.
Dear me-" thought the little bun
ny. Maybe he's robber.' But
being a brave bunny boy, and a
curious little fellow, he hoped
right up to the old man, just like
that. and asked what was inside
the sack.
Should I unite this bag of mine,
There'd be dreadful storm,
For it Is full of angry winds
And the yellow lightning
