Every voter and taxpayer should consider the matter to be discussed as demanding their careful consideration and attendance. We would caution bicycle riders in town that there is a law prohibiting riding upon sidewalks. A violation of this law incurs a penalty of not more than $25 and not less than $5.

The Water Committee have prepared a report for the coming town meeting which we had a purpose to publish; but it is so voluminous, and contains such a mass of details that it is not in shape for publication, and so on looking it over we have concluded that we shall give our townsmen readers sufficient information on which they can act intelligently by giving a summary of the results of their investigation of the subject. The report states that the committee were unableto effect a purchase of the Island Pond Aqueduct's plant within the limited price prescribed by the town; that the next step was to ascertain as accurately as possible the expense of getting water from different supplies; that all agreed there were only two available ones, namely: the present system, with the addition if required of the brook easterly of it; the other what is called the Job's Pond route.

In order to get at the most accurate estimates an experienced man of great reputation was employed, who carefully inspected both routes and reported the estimated expense of constructing a water system over them. To construct a system in the place of the one that now is, but without reference to it, that is, beginning anew, was estimated to cost $22,500. The Job's Pond system was estimated to cost $31,000. On receipt of this report the committee thinking further information might be desired by the town requested the esti. Mr.

Foster, to estimate the cost mator, of putting the present system in condition to furnish the needed supply with the brook spoken of east of it included, and the probable cost without approprithe brook. Having this informaating tion the committee summarize the exas follows: pense To make the present system available, it will require in adaition to the price to be paid for it, including the brook spoken of without that brook $3,000. of Job's pond route as stated The cost $31,000. Cost of a system in place of used, including the east the one now without the brook brook, Mr. Foster made these the committee, without any mates, say of previous estimates, and knowledge from the correspondence of all the estiand the large experience of the mates, them the committee feel man making confidence in them.

The estimates much the entire expense, even ditching include and land damages. Fruit Jars at Vallee Brothers. Special Town Meeting Warning.

LINEMAN, the town of H. B. FARMER, Brighton. Fruit Jars at Vallee Brothers. Haying has commenced in earnest.

C. D. Nichols, formerly in business here, now of Springfield, is visiting in town. He made the journey from Springfield on his wheel. Two train loads of excursionists from Lewiston and vicinity passed through here last Tuesday evening en route for St.

Anne de Beaupre. Judging from the report of the democratic convention at Guildhall last Tuesday the majority of the voters there assembled favored free silver. George Currier, who has been very ill for some time past, his condition giving great uneasiness to his parents, is the mend and slowly but steadily improving, which is very gratifying to all his friends. Mrs. Frank Bigelow of Chelsea, and her twin babies arrived in town last week on a visit to her parents Mr.

and Mrs. Clark Ladd. What a hugging those twins got from the aunts assembled to meet them! The freight business on the G. T. R.

System through this port is just now very large. Over 300 cars arrived here between Saturday night and Monday morning. We all rejoice at this evidence of a boom in business. As we go to press negotiations are pending looking to the sale of Geo. H.

Fitzgerald's wild lands in Lewis, Avery's Gore, Brighton and Morgan, also the lands and saw mill owned by the Averill Lumber in Averill, in all about 38,000 acres. A party of Lewiston, school ma'ams were in town Tuesday en route for a few days outing at Quebec, Montreal and the Thousand Islands, and so pleased were they with their brief stay in Island Pond that they have arranged to stop over here on their return trip. Charles Fitzgerald arrived on the same train, but this is merely a coincidence. Fruit Jars at Vallee Brothers. CHURCH SERVICES.

E. ATWATER, Pastor. Dog-gerel. Charles Dyer was a citizen, But though of some renown, He could not stop a dog in this, Or any other town. His house he painted green and blue, Which gave it quite a boom; He also passed a law to keep Dogs from his diningroom.

You know of Mary's little lamb? This story's not the same; Because the lady in this tale Was quite unknown to fame. And for a lamb she had a dog: The breed is known as pug; (You always tell that kind of beast By what is called its She brought it up the hotel steps, Without a thought of fear; Charles said "it could not enter in, But it might 'linger He tied it to the water pipes, But badly was it noosed; For when that landlord turned aside That little dog vamoosed. And then began a long stern chase Which covered half the town; Because that dog a brother had At Causebrook's lower down. It entered into Bartlett's store, Charles still toddling after: The clerk more looked dignified, And all were moved to laughter. A small boy caught that dog at last, Who brought it back to Dyer; And when a pug came after her.

that, 'Twas left to Buck to tie The years have passed since that great Time all too quickly flies; Yet still the natives tell the tale, And cease from telling lies, To whisper, as th' electric lights Flicker and die away, Of how men smiled, and how Dyer riled At what occurred; and say, "That though he was a citizen, They'd put their money down, He could not catch a dog in this Or any other town." Fruit Jars at Vallee Brothers. Mary had a little lamb, She also had a beau; And the lamb would act as Where the other two would go. chaperone E. J.

a graduate of the HERALD office. Mr. Barney is a job printer at Berlin, and is doing a big business, but like Oliver Twist he wants hence the publication. His work is always neat and upto date. Heshows a good deal of Vigor in his "Vim," thus Victory will surely be his.

"Vim" is well printed and its contents are very interesting, brief of course, but to the point. His many friends here are much pleased to learn of his well doing and wish him continued success and prosperity. Edna, a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Lum Aldrich met with a sad and painful accident last Monday.

Charles Felstead was chopping some sticks on a block, the little girl removing them when cut, and somehow she got her right hand on the block just as the axe descended, with the result that the third finger was cut clean off and the second finger almost severed, the bone being cut through. Drs. Linehan and Norcross were summoned and rendered the necessary surgical aid and are hoping that they may save the second finger and the hand from further mutilation. Very general pathy is expressed for the little girl in her trouble. Essex County Democratic Convention.

In response to the call issued by the county committee as published in last week's HERALD, a representative gathering of Democrats from nearly every town in the county met inconvention at Guildhall last Tuesday to put in nomination candidates for the county offices. C. M. Fletcher, of Canaan as chairman the county committee called the convention to order. and after the usual formali.

ties a temporary organization was effected by the choice of Franklin Bell of Lunenburg as chairman and James M. Gilkey of Brunswick as secretary, and on motion the temporary organization was made the permanent organization of the convention. Mr. Bell on taking the chair delivered an address, dwelling chiefly on the question of finance and the tariff which met very general approval. On motion a committee of three was appointed by the chair as a committee on nominations and resolutions, and 1 these were appointed: J.

H. Linehan, C. M. Fletcher and P. R.

Follansby, who reported as follows: For Senator, Albert Q. Pottle of Canaan. For Judge of Probate, Franklin Bell of Lunenburg. For Assistant Judges, Putney R. Follansby of Guildhall and George E.

Horrot Brighton. For State's Attorney, John G. Keenan of Brighton. For Sheriff, James M. Gilkey of Brunswick.

For High Bailiff, Andrew J. Lyon of Concord. For County Commissioner, Arnold Ball of East Haven. On motion the report of the committee was unanimously accepted and adopted. The committee on resolutions presented the following: RESOLVED, That the Democrats of Essex County in Mass Convention assembled, are still adherent to principles that underlie their great and illustrious party.

In accordance with Democratic belief, the majority rules; therefore we heartily endorse and pledge our votes to the nominees of our National, State, and County Conventions. A minority ity report striking out the word "national" in the foregoing resolution was defeated, and the resolution as presented was adopted. Following this business John H. Senter of Montpelier addressed the convention, confining his remarks chiefly to the question of finance. He spoke in his usual eloquent strain, and commanded the close attention of his hearers who frequently gave vent to their pleasure by hearty applause.

From a democratic standpoint it was a splendid and masterly effort and was greatly appreciated. ELIJAH W. DAVIS. Elijah W. Davis, of whose death circumstances last week permitted us only to make a brief mention, died at his residence in Island Pond on Tuesday the 7th at the age of 55 years and 7 months.

He belonged to a large family, the parents of which settled in this town almost back at the time of its first beginnings. He was a member of Island Pond Lodge, F. A. No. 44., and of Erastus Buck Post.

G. A. No. 78. He also belonged to a large class of locomotive engineers, who created and have always maintained SO large a portion of the animating spirit of our railroad enterprise; who at the same time are physically hardened by toil and made generous, kind and tender of heart by peril and watchful care of others; who share the fruits of their toil with those whom they meet in short suecessive furloughs, ever interrupted by sudden departures and who, like their engines, (which seem to them to beliving beings and for which the driver has a tond affection), strong as they are, out by their lively fractional employment.

Many like their machines go suddenly, and while yet externalevidences of failure have scarcely been discovered. Of such was our friend, who belonged to a class concerning which much that would be interesting might be said, but it is of the dead one we are now moved to speak. It is true that what is said of the dead is a matter of entire indifference to them. They are beyond censure or praise. To be pleasantly remembered and spoken of after one's death seems to the prospective subject of such memories, in the minds of some, important to the object on which such sentiments are bestowed.

This is mere fancy, imagination. So far as it is a pleasing anticipation to the individual while living it is well to enjoy it. But when speaking of the dead, to consider that we are speaking in their behalf in any sense seems idle. Let imagination make these things seem as it may an apostrophe to the dead is in fact but addressing the living by indirection. But the memory of the good that men do in their lives should be sacredly preserved by the living and for the living.

the pleasing associations, kind and charitable deeds, just and faithful actions of those gone should continue to warm, cheer and their survivors. Otherwise the teachings, the merits, the worth excellence and even the glory of the past would be lost. Among the tests of how much and how favorable consideration shall be bestowed on a man as he goes out of the world is the inquiry how much good did his life bring into the world as compared with what he got from it in return? This is not a cold commercial calculation, but a warm gencrous and just measurement of a good man's lite. The good is only valuable and that only ought to be taken account of, for memories good and bad each breed their kind in their influence on the living. These reflections are the natural inducements which lead to thoughts sug-1 gested by the recent death of our and which by reason of his usefulness to the community, faithful care of his family, sound, healthy and strong society and industrial relations has occasioned a11 universal sadness.

As some of the nicest and most excellent things in nature are found in humility, so are some of the most commendable actions of men found in humble life. To say that a man has been industrious all his life, that he has been frugal and thrifty, that he has garded and practiced consistently and with respect all the family and society relations with which he came in contact, that the restraining influence of the law has never been invoked through any irregularity of his life, that he has neither by himself nor any of his rested in any way as a burden on body else. that he has improved every spot on which he made local habitation, thus adding to the aggregate wealth and comfort of his town, that he has met all his obligations in his individual transactions, and that without hope of glory in the darkest hour of his country's peril he left the harmonious and genial conditions of a peaceful life to face the storms and perils of war, is much to say of any man. But all this can truthfully be said concerning our friend who has just left us. All his life he labored, and his efforts were productive.

He went away before he was a burden to any human being. True to wife, children and friends, they sadly grieve at their unexpected separation from him. But let them reflect that they cannot wish their grief was less without wishing that he was less worthy of their sad affection. No man's lite can be more successful than that of him the plain statement of whose qualities or the simple story of whose life IS his highest eulogy. D.

Mrs. Jere Willard spent a few days at Guildhall, last week. I noticed in a recent paper that Senator Horace Tabor of Colorado has been sued for $100,000. Senator Tabor was a native of Holland, and his wife was an Andrews of South Paris, Me. Years and years ago they went west to seek their fortunes.

Mrs. Tabor kept boarders, did laundry work and whatever came in her way to keep the wolf from the door. They lived as happy a life an overworked woman and underworked man can live, until one morning hethrew a pickaxe over his shoulder and walked out to strike the silver vein which metamorphosed this chrysalis of poverty into a full-fledged millionaire, then wife No. 1 lacked the accomplishments necessary to grace the position he could give a wife, and a divorce was the result. Then the good citizens of his adopted state mistaking his wife's brains for his sent him to Washington as Senator.

Perhaps you remember as well as I the scandal caused by his taking wife No. 2. The gorgeous outfit and surroundings of this silver king was rehearsed by the press all over the land, and when he deceived the church and was married by a Roman Catholic priest and the ceremony had to be repeated by a protestant before the con. tract was valid, even in Washington they thought the senator a little shaky. In the meantime wife No.

1 sued her former husband and the courts allowed her $100,000. This by wise investments soon placed her and her son among the wealthiest, and they are the principal owners of the Palace Hotel in San Fransisco. Soon reverses came to Senator Pate. his wealth gradually disappeared, and when he came on bended knee and begged the aid of her he had spurned, she, well, -all women are fools! and she did just what the 99 others would have done under the same stances. Mrs.

Rhodie Noah, of this place, wastaken in the night with cramping pains and the next day set in. She took half a bottle of blackberry cordial but got no relief. She then sent to me to see if I had anything that would help her. I sent her a bottle of Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Remedy and the first dose relieved her. Another of our neighbors had been sick for about a week and had tried different remedies for but kept getting worse.

I sent him this same remedy. Only four doses of it were required to cure him. He says he owes his recovery to this wonderful remedy. Mrs. Mary Sibley, Sidney, Mich.
