Republican Rally

A well attended Republican rally
was held at Town hall Saturday eve
ming. The meeting was called to or
der and presided over by Hon. II. E.
Wadsworth.
Mr.. Wadsworth discussed the appro-
priation measures which were before
the last Legislature and gave a very
clear explanation regarding the appro-
priation for hospitals and other like
institutions. 1t was recognized that
there was need of additional accom-
modations at the hospital at Augusta
and Bangor, but as there were so
many other measures dependent upon
the vote of the Legislature with ref
erence to any other appropriations that
might be made it was deemed mad
visable to open the treasury of the
State of Maine to the degree that
would be necessary to satisfy all
claimants.
He introduced John Nelson, who
urged all Republicans to go to the
polls and vote the straight Republic
can ticket and not to be swayed by
any arguments against any candidate.
Mr.. Nelson was followed by Hon. E.
II. Drummingan. Commissioner of
Cancellation in the Department of
Labor who spoke very Interestingly
and instructively. His speech was
replete with facts and figures con-
corning the administration at Wash
ington.
He likewise urged the voters of
Winthrop to support the entire ticket
pointing out that a DETECTION there
from would be construed by Presi-
dent Coolidge as a reflection upon his
administration.
He answered the address of Mayor
Mclean given in the afternoon at
Winthrop by giving statistics, show
ing the prosperity of the country in
general.
Music was furnished by Thaanums'
Orchestra.
Communion was observed Sunday
morning at the Congrega tional
church with appropriate sermon by
the pastor.
Mrs. Nellie Schmitz, Misses Mat
tie Chandler, Helen Kinds, Marquee
rite Stockford, Anne Knight and
Hannah Lindholm united with the
church and the pastor, Rev. C. F.
Sargent, in receiving them, spoke of
the late Mrs. Sargent, who had work
ed with these young ladies, and that
this day was a memorial to her
memory. There was a large attend
ance.

BLACK BEAR KILLED
 ON ZAREMB0 ISLAND

Since before the coming of the white man to Alaska the Indians haey believed zarembo island to be free from bear.
 Archie Abbott while hunting on Zarembo a few days ago was sur prised to come upon a black bear which he promptly killed The bear proved to be very old animal. its eyes were sunken and it appear ed to be in a weakened condition as it was crawling around feeding feeding on skunk cabbage. Its long worn tusks furnished additional ey- idence of it's great age.
 It would be most interesting to know when and how that bear got on Zarembo island as the island is not within swimming distance of other islands,

Says Andrews Favors Beer.

You will recollect that Gen.
Andrews stated wherever the diver
sion of industrial alcohol was stopped,
that moonshine from the small stills
welled UP to fill the gap, and that he
not only does not. but cannot even
attempt to prevent the manufacture
of alcohol and whisky in the small
stills in the homes of the people.
And never forget when you are
considering the evidence before you,
that Gen. Andrews. who has a more
accurate knowledge than any other
man in this country and whose
practical mind is not clouded with
prejudices of any kind. has asserted
that the sale of beer under proper
restriction in regard to it's distribu-
tion, so as to prevent the return of
the saloon, would be a great assist
ance in the enforcement of the law.
Mr.. Buckner, United States attor-
rev for the southern district of New
York, stated that no attempt was
made by him for enforcement Of this
kind, and even the super.efficient
United States attorneys from Chicago
and Cleveland admitted on cross-ex-
animation, after all their Dragging,
that they neither made any attempt
to prosecute the owners Of small stills
nor had they knowledge of how many
existed in their districts.
Declares Supply WIN Come.
AS long as there is a dems nd for
alcohol. the supply will come. The
inexorable law of supply and demand
exists and will exist long after this
generation has passed away. The
only possible result of our present
policy viii he the substitution Of alco-
hcl and home.diatillad mocpshine Or
