PROSTITUTION IN NAME OF
MORALITY

What would the people of America
say if President Green, of the Amer
lean Federation of Labor, should ap-
pear before a congressional commit
tee and admit that congressman and
senators were on the A. F. of L. pay
roll, their duty being to make
speeches for organized labor and vote
in favor of all measures originating
with the labor lobby?
What would be the reaction to
Adolph Busch's admission that the
brewery interests stood ready to for
ward congressman to local wet groups
whenever they wired in" for one, the
local group to pay all expenses and a
modest honorarium ?"
What would happen if the president
of the United States chamber OF
commerce frankly admitted his organ
ization collected hundreds of thou
sands of dollars to be used each year
in influencing legislation ?"
Wayne Wheeler, of the Anti-Sa-
loon league, not only admits his or
ganization is doing these things, but
seemed surprised and hurt when the
propriety of such action was question
ed.
If the Anti-Saloon league lobbyists
can keep congressman and senators
on their payroll, then the railroads

CITY MEETING.
Interesting Hearing on Petition for
Power Line.

interesting Hearing on Petition fOI
Power Line.
The full board of aldermen met
Monday evening for the regular city
meeting. An interesting hearing was
held, with much discussion.
The Bar Harbor & Union River
Power Co. had presented a petition
for pole rights on East Maple street
and out High street to the Hancock
Trenton line, for the purpose of
erecting high tension lines. The
wording of the petition asked for
pole rights the entire length Of High
street, from Main street.
Many citizens living on High
street were present, and offered
strong objections to high tension
lines on this much-traveled resi-
Dental section of the street. 1t
was found that the clause concern
ing the upper end of High street
was unnecessary, as the power COM
pany only wanted rights on East
Maple street and out High street
from its junction with East Maple
street The Objectionable clause
was cut out of the petition, and it
was passed as amended.
1t was voted to install hydrant
on Third street near the home of
Elmore Pickett.
The board decided to raise the
salary of the city library janitor
from $3.50 to SIS per month.
The Hancock County Fair Associ-
alton was granted permission to
place banners on Main street, adj
vertising the fair, Aug 81 and Sept.
IL.
A petition asking for street
lights from Ellsworth Falls to North
Ellsworth, was read. 1t was de-
cided to start line toward North
Ellsworth, the number of lights to
be determined by the committee ON
lights later. 1t was also voted to
place a light on the Waltham road,
near the residence , of Increase
Shackford.
The roll of accounts, including
the mid-month payroll, amounted to
$6,472.71..

Whose Toes We're Punched?

L
Charles A. Kane, State highway
officer, who has made his head
quarters at Ellsworth, has resigned.
Of1cer Kane was called to Augusta
by Chief Field, and advised that he
had been transferred to Farming
ton. He refused to accept the trans
fer, and handed in his badge.
On the face Of it, that appears
simple, but the people Of Ellsworth
are curious. Mr.. Kane, in state
ment given to the Bangor Com
mercial, says his transfer was due
to a petition signed by five inf1u-
entail citizens of Ellsworth, three
of whom he had offended in the
performance of his duty. Chief
Field says he received complaints
he could not overlook.
There is the simple statement OF
both sides, but the people OF ELS
worth are still curious. 1t is an ex-
PLANTATION that does not explain. Mr..
Kane has been looked upon as con-
scientious, efficient, impartial offlcer.
II the secret lies in that last quail
fication, the people of Ellsworth,
the people of the State, have the
right to ask some questions OF Chlef
Field. They have the right to kno"
II failure of an officer to pander to
political or money influence dis
Qualities him for service, or justifies
his removal to another field where
he will be less troublesome.
Officer Kane played no tavorites;
he performed his duty as he saw 1t.
Whose toes did he step on? Let US
have the names of the five lnhu-
entail citizens" who asked for MS
removal, and the basis of their COM
plant.

EPIDEMIC OF FLU"
Sweeps BOHEMIAN
Disease Mild in EOrm-Dr. jump
Advises Precautions Be
Taken, However

BOzeman, like Livingston and other
cities and towns in this section of the
state, is experiencing a ''flu" epi-
demic of more than ordinary nature,
although the disease is appearing in
a very mild form.
While in most cases this "flu,"
which DR.. C. F. Jump, city and county
health officer, declares is very sim
liar to the scourge that swept the
country in 1913, is not dangerous,
those suffering from it are too sick to
work and most Of them are confined
to their homes.
No estimate Of the number of cases
in Bozeman and vicinity has been
made, although scores of adults and
children are known to be victims. Dr..
Jump and the county nurse, Miss
Knutson, warn that under no circum-
stances should sufferers neglect any
%precaution that will conserve vitality
and prevent complications.
Patients, they say, should remain
at home until fully recovered. AS in
the case of the 1913 epidemic, relap-
ses are apt to be experienced, and
there is always danger that pneu.
monia, with possibly fatal results, will
develop unless care is taken.
There are a number Of cases o.
humps in. the city, and one mild casr
Of smallpox, DR.. Jump reports.
