Record Yield of Potatoes Raised This Year lo Thai County. The Whole County Is Booming As Hover Before Known. Houlton, Me., Oct. 2.—Aroostook county has entered upon and stands face to face with the most rosy outlook in its history. Never was the prospect spread before it more alluring. At least $10,000,000 in cold cash is already be ginning to sift its way into that garden spot of Maine—into the hands of the farmers, alone—to say nothing of the added millions that will be re tained by the railroads and the ship pers and buyers. A big hay crop har vested in remarkably quick time and in perfect condition, an abundant crop of oats and above all and before all, a bumper yield of potatoes, that will ag gregate in volume the record crop of 1906 and go way beyond it in quality and market value, are what Aroostook people have occasion to thank nature and science for in this year of grace, 1908. And to say that those people are happy doesn’t half express it; the most of them are plumb abstracted and daz zled by the immensity of the outlook. If one but cares for the study of op timism, let him go into one or all ol the big towns of the county and there find it being dealt out in rich volumes, bound in vellum with gilt tops and un cut edges and completely illustrated by nature's most competent designer and engraver. "In my 30 years' experience," said K 1,. Cleveland, head of the great seen potato house. "I have never seen such a rosy outlook for Aroostook." This he said as an introductory remark in a courteously granted interview, to a Commercial representative this week. And what Mr. C'lcve'and so modestly sets forth as the condition of tilings there hundreds and thousands of others are replying in like to the ques tion: “How fares Aroostook tin* year?” It may not bo generally known nut ir needs be said In the beginning that through all tlie season Aroostook has been favored above all other seetions of the country in its climatic condi tions. While the coast and midland counties of the state were scorched and blistered by a hot sun and scant rainfall. Maine's northernmost county wes-gaining In verdancy and develop ment because of frequent showers and moderately tempered rays of heat. Ideal conditions prevailed throughout the entire season, from the time tiie ground was made ready to receive the seed until the present time, when pro bably over half the potato crop has been harvested and such a crop as was never heard of in the history of tiie now wonderful industry. But to continue in Mr. Cleveland's words: “While ideal conditions have prevailed for the growth and develop ment of the crop, in addition to the enormous yield, the table quality of the stock Is such that it will make everyone smile, when he comes to peel an Aroostook potato at his dinner table this fall and winter.” Then Mr. Cleveland made his re mark quoted above about this being the best year he had ever seen in his SO years' experience. And ho re viewed the conditions leading up to this grand result. “There Was an abundant hay crop." he said, “and ideal conditions prevailed for harvesting it. The hay, in fact, was never put Into the barns in better shape than this year. The oat crop also was a large one and again ideal conditions prevailed for Its harvest, the threshing machines being able to work In the field after the grain had been cut. "All these crops are hig in the ag gregate anal secured in best possible condition. So far as the potato out look is concerned the condition ttiis year is out of the usual. There was a severe drought in the western states and we are already shipping stock for table use to New York. New Jersey and New England points as well. “Carload after carload has already gone out to Louisville, Ky„ Indiana polis, St. Louis. Buffalo and only today have I had occasion to look up a little town in Vermont where a carload has been ordered. Several carloads have also been shipped to Burlington, a condition most unusual, for Vermont can most always be depended upon to grow enough potatoes for its own consump tion. "On account of this shortage In other parts of the country, many buyers from these various sections have come into the county and forced prices up to an unhealthy condition. At just about this point. Mr. Cleav land was interrupted by an associate, who came into the private ofllce to see if his chief would authorize the pur chase of a fine lot of tubers at some up-country station at $1.40 per barrel. "It is hard to determine at just what value the product will run," lie said, in continuing, "but it is certain that it will be at a comparatively high level on account of the shortage in other places.” (Continued on Page Twelve.)

Wildest Enthusiasm Among People As Admiral Sperry’s Atlantic Fleet Steams Into the Famous Harbor. Manila, Oct. 2.—With the brilliant tropical sunlight pouring down on their polished guns and gloaming paint and a swift land breeze whipping their many flags out straight from the staffs and stirring the bunting that covered the half hundred launches and excursion steamers fhat were crowded with cheering thousands, escorted the big ships up the bay. the Atlantic battle ship fleet steamed slowly into Manila bay this afternoon and sailing majes tically across the battle field where Doewy and Ills men fought their his toric battle with the Spanish fleet 10 wars ago, dropped anchor off the city. The fleet cleared south channel shortly after noon, and steamed up the center of the bay while dozens of launches and steamers sailing proud ly along beside the monsters of the na\ y sounded a discordant welcome with whistles, cheers and every other noise-making device that could be con'rived. The ships presented a mag nificent appearance as they moved slowly along and the sight of the long line evoked the wildest enthusiasm and admiration of thousands that crowded at every point of vantage. As the Connecticut led the line past Corregidor the garrison there fired the admiral's salute. The passage of tho channel was made in single column but as soon as the last ship in the long line was safely through, signals were hoisted for the double column formation and in this manner the ships steamed away up the hay two abreast. As flic ships anchored, General Weston, military commander in this city, sent a wireless message, conveying the greetings of himself, his officers and the men of the army to Admiral Sperry and his men. Admiral Sperry replied, thanking him for his kind wel come. Governor General Smith witnessed the arrival of the floe* from his launch. He will probably pay his official visit to the Connecticut tomorrow, when Manila's welcome to the sailors will be tendered in the form of a great wa ter parade. Soon after landing the rear admirals commanding the divisions and the captains of tho IT, vessels assembled on board the flagship Connecticut to pay their respects to Hear Admiral Sperry. Following a conference it was announced that orders had been is suing that nothing bo taken aboard from shore pending further considera tions of the epidemic of cholera in Manila. In discussing the long cruise from San Francisco with the correspondents who boarded the Connecticut this even ing. Hear Admiral Sperry expressed himself as well satisfied with the gen eral results attained from the view points ol' discipline, seamanship and adaptability to circumstances. He said that since the ships had been thrown on their own resources their efficiency had been greatly increased. The latest reports show that the cholera in this vicinity is diminishing rapidly. It is expected that the city will be clean in a few days. Manil a, Oct. 2—Lt. Frank Tuvlur Kvans of the battleship Louisiana, and 1 ,t.

AUGUST A AND OARDINER ME. s-tu-th OVER 1200 LASTERS ON STRIKE IN LYNN. Hourly Adding to Ranks and Feared That the Entire Shoe industry of the City Will Soon Be Tied Up. Lynn, Mass., Oct. 2.—The 1200 lusters who went on strike in 54 of the shoe factories of this city at noon today, lost no time in starting: a campaign in an effort to add to their ranks tin* men who still remained at their machines, and this afternoon the first of a ser ies of demonstrations was held. About 1000 strikers gathered at the union headquarters and marched to the fac tory of Hennessy Thompson, at West Lynn where the lasters had re mained at work. Finding the gates to the factory locked they gather in front of the building and made a great up roar, urging the men to quit. Final ly one of the lasters in the factory jum[>od out of a window and, stand ing on the fence in front of the build ing, made a speech to the strikers. He' was an Armenian and in broken English he said that he and a major ity of the lasters sympathized with the strikers, but that at noon time, when the strike was declared, the gates of tin- building were closed and the men were loekd in. Concluding his remarks he jumped off the fence into the crowd and called to his fellowworkers to fol low him, which most of them did. At terwards many of the Hennessy Thompson lasters started back to their shops after their kits, but were rofus ed admittance. The strikers remained at the factory until late in the after noon, continuing their demonstration. ()n their way back to the lieadqu li ters the strikers visited the Albert. Cioighton Son factory on Widow street. They arrived there just as the employ* s were leaving the factory for the day, and tile tasters assured their striking brotheis that they would not return to work tomorrow. Tl.e union otdeials state the demon strations will la- continued tomorrow and every factory where men are at work in the lasting departments will be visited. A mass meeting was held upon the return of the strikers to the union headquarters and a committee was ap pointed to discuss the issues of the strike at all the factories where the lasters may be inclined to return to work. Besides the action of the Joseph Caunt Co.. in installing new pulling over and assembling machines, and employing girls to operate them, thus doing away with the services of 15 men there is another issue in the strike, a wage reduction which went into ef fect recently, which lowered the rale per dozen pairs from 25 to lfi cents. All the lasters employed by every concern which is a member of the Lynn Shoe Manufacturers' Association a branch of the National Shoe Manu facturers’ Association, the strikers de clare. will be made to go on strike and as most of the shoe manufacturers here are members of the association the strike order if effective will mean a general tie-up of the shoe manufac turing industry in this city. At the meeting this- afternoon, however, it was decided by the union that if any manufacturers could conclusively prove to the executive hoard that lie was not a member of the Manufactur d s’ Association his employes would not be disturbed and his lasters would have tlie privilege of choosing their own al ternative. Already one manufacturer, the C. K. A. H Jones Co., has re signed from the association and the firm of Hcnnessy Thompson have de clared their intention to do so. The Manufacturers’ Association has made no effort to treat with the strik ing lasters as yet, as the members did not anticipate that the strike would in clude more than the Caunt Co., opera tives and no meeting has been called.

UNITARIAN The Unitarian Message. Thousands of men are practically out of the Christian church today. Its message to them has lost its power and persuasiveness. It may receive their financial support, but it cannot command their loyalty of heart and mind. To these men the Unitarian church has a new and convincing message. It declares that the main thing in religion is not the acceptance of any particular salvation scheme, but is the living of a life. It teaches that religion is life,—strong, san«i pure, manly, helpful life. It insists upon character as the absolute essen tial in righteousness.
