Beware of IIIeaaI Trapping


Unusual efforts will be made this
winter by game wardens, sheriffs.
humane agents, and other public
officers to prevent and punish viola
ton Of the laws in respect to trap
ping. 1t is unlawful to set traps
without license, except for bears,
loupcerviers, and a few other ami
mails. All traps must be perlna-
nently marked with the name and
address of the owner. Most impor-
tant of all-all traps must be Wis
tied at least once in every twenty
four hours. There are special regu-
lations for the protection of beavers,
and beavers can be trapped only In
such territory as is declared open
for that purpose by the commission
ers on inland fisheries and game.
Failure to visit their traps every day
by careless boys or men is the cause
of the most intense suffering on the
part of animals. Caught and held
fast in steel traps, frantic with fear,
and subject to death by freezing
or starving, what situation more
terrible can be imagined,

IF we could bring forward to the
present moment the impressive an
niversary of Thanksgiving Day, we
should regard it as a privilege to
devote some portion of Its hours to
a joyous yielding up of gratitude
that we live in Maine, the citizens of
which state have such regard for
political honesty and fair dealing
that they do not withhold the regis
tering of their convictions at the
voting booths. The extraordinary
majority of $4,000 for Mr.. Gould is
the peoples answer to the methods
which certain persons have regarded
it proper to inject into the campaign
just closed. All honor to those who
stood for political and civic decency,
and in special manner let US reg
lister admiration for the great body
of Democrats who in vindication of
that principle renowned their party
affiliations and voted side by side
with Republicans. Our congratula-
tons to Mr.. Gould, to the Aroostook
people who know him and made their
vote for him well-nigh unanimous,
and to the state at large for setting
its seal of reputation upon these
later methods by which a few men
sought to advertise Maine" to the
country at large.

WAYS OF OVERRIDING IT

Those who believe in advertising
will hesitate to suggest that there
is too much telling of the customer
what he needs, but that too much
money may be expended in tying to
sell merchandise Is argued by Jessie
Rainsford Sprague in December
Harper's. He cites dependable re-
ports that the average selling costs
Of a group of large department
stores exceeds 5000; that business
with such excess is uneeonomical
that this is a problem up against
which big business finds itself.
On the other hand there are not
infrequent instances where concerns
establish a big overhead. make eX-
cellent goods and depend too much
on the public finding it out without
their assistance. AS compared with
the concern that keeps in contact
with the public, pushes its product
within reason, keeps down Its
capitalization to actual needs and

also that the present rates place a
considerable burden upon the farm
ers of the three towns who find their
natural market in the city of Bath.
The proposal appears to be fair
one. Because of the large cost of
operating the ferry the users are
obliged to pay tolls as they will be
asked to pay tolls after the compile
ton of the brodge that is to be
thrown across the Kennebec at Bath.
But the bridge will become free after
some ten or twelve years after the
receipts have met the cost
To the occasional user of the bridge
the tolls are not of much moment.
Paying as they do but once or a few
times in the year, the cost to individ-
uals is not bothersome. But it is
quite a different matter to the dwell
lers across the river from Bath. who
must frequently visit the city. State
erected bridges accommodate the
public in other sections of the state
and toll bridges today are almost
unknown. It seems a very fair prop
osition that the people of Woolwieh
and the other towns across the Ken
nebec from Bath should be granted
special concessions b cause Of their
large use of the ferry.

KEEP LOOKING YOUNG

The secret of keeping young is to
feel young-to do this you must
watch your liver and bowels-there's
no need of having a sallow COM
plexion-dark rings under your eyes
--pimples-a bilious look in your
face-dull eyes with no sparkle.
Your doctor will tell you ninety per
cent Of all sickness comes from in
active bowels and liver.
DR.. Edwards, a well-known ply
stefan in Ohio, perfected a vegetable
compound mixed with olive oil as a
substitute for calomel to act on the
liver and bowels, which he gave to
his patients for years.
DIR. Edwards Olive Tablets are
gentle in their action yet always ef-
fective. They bring about that
natural buoyancy which all should
enjoy by toning up the liver and
clearing the system Of impurities.
DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets are
known by their olive color. 15c 500

A WORD ABOUT THE
MACHlNISTS

Commonly heard references to the
party machine" are not ALWAYS
complimentary. We wonder If peo-
pie give much thought to the
"machinists." If they did they might
arrive at a somewhat different con-
clusion respecting the machine, party
loyalty and all that.
How many Of US realize the large
amount Of work that has to be done
by the political committees, that
otherwise than a certain amount of
recognition for party loyalty receive
little or no reward? In this State
this year an unusual amount of work
mas fallen to their lot, work often
sntailing serious sacrifice of personal
interests on the part of those who
have borne the brunt Of it.

REPORT OF SECRETARY OF

y The report Of the secretary Of

ties Of important concern to the
public. Nearly eleven thousand I'M
desirable aliens have been deported
for one thing. In cooperation with
employment Offices throughout the
country 1,7S1,Ss1 persons were d.
rected to employment the past fiscal
year. The good offices of the De-
partment have been employed in 551
industrial disputes, Of which settle
ment was secured in S77 cases and
Its work in this respect has received
wide commentator.
Referring to this Secretary Davis
says:
1.-The efforts of the representatives
Of this service are directed always
toward the prevention of an open
break that stops production, with
the consequent loss in wages and
profits. They endeayor to have
work go on while negotiations are
being conducted to bring about a
settlement of the existing differ
ences. If this be impossible and a
strike or lockout occurs, then their
task is to secure a prompt and
workable adjustment, having always
in mind the interests not only of the
employers and employees but of the
public as we'll"
A feature of the Departments en-
ployment service has been that in
the farm labor division by means of
which around 100000 laborers were
handled.

that pertaining to efforts the past

complaints; that out of the 276,646

furthermore notes that immigration

being handled better than ever be-
