GUESSING AT 1T

The bland Mr.. Meredith, whom
President Wilson made secretary of
agriculture. who is dry as well as
Democrat, ventures the opinion
that the next national convention of
his party will be controlled by the
progressive Democrats of the West
and South.
We hadn't supposed the Democrats
of the South merited the term pro-
gressive. They have been standing
still In their Democratic tracks, 10
these many years, always taking
what comes. But, however that may
be, the East as well as Democrats
elsewhere are reminded that there
is to be very pronounced opposition
to Governor Smith candidacy, which
was virtually forced to the front by
his reelection as Governor of New
York. Also it may be regarded as
declaration out of the mouths of
many western and southern drys that

Is MR.. REDMi.N CITIZEN OF
MAINE

And the latest is that Candidate
Redman has no voting residence in
Maine OF course he was not con-
templating voting for himself. new
ertheless he may find it embarrass-
Ing to explain why, if the charge be
found correct. he has not spent a day
this year in his nominal voting resi-
dence at Ellsworth. but has spent a
short time at Bar Harbor; that he
has been taxed as a nonresident fol-
lowing his protest at being taxed as
resident, that while in October
1928 he came to Ellsworth and reg
istered as a voter he has spent no
time there and owns no property
there. .s
When all these com tents are dis
posed of satisfactorily to everybody
there will remain the provision of

shall be a Senator who shall not
have attained to the age of thirty
years, and been nine years 4 resi-
dent Of the United States, and who

laden coal team on the sidewalk out
side the residence at 104 Davis
avenue. and was fined $40 and costs
Herbert Edwards, member of the
Bearce * Edwards company made a
statement to the court in which he
opposed the City's ordance regard
ing driving over sidewalks Mr. Ed
wards said he felt the coal company
should take the blame If there was
any. He said it seemed impossible to
deliver the coal without driving the
team onto the sidewalk because of
trolley tracks close to the sidewalk
: which would prevent parking the
team on the street and letting the
coal down a chute from the wagon
to the cellar. Mr. Edwards declared
that to discriminate against this
practice meant to discriminate the
heavy City teams and tractors used
to keep snow from the sidewalks in
! the winter. He said his firm will
gladly pay FOR any damage done by
its teams. Judge Donahue advised
, Mr.. Edwards that it might not APP
pear to be a serious offense yet

that If the sidewalk ordinance proves
TO bring hardship upon fuel concerns
they should take the matter up with
the City Council Which makes the
ordinances and has power to modify
or revoke them.
