RID WORLD j OF MILITARY AUTOCRACY _ i Salient Point of Presi dent Wilson’s 4th of July Address SPEAKS TO GATHERING AT MOUNT VERNON Officials and Diplomats of AI- j lied Nations Hear Chief Ex ecutive Enunciate Principles and Objects Which United States is Striving for Wasiiington, July 1—President; Wilson answered all feelers for a compromise peace, with a new and unqualified consecration of America to the struggle for cleaning military autocracy from the earth. At in Independence I>ay gather- j mg on the gentle slopes of Mount; Vernon home and tomb of George Washington and surrounded by scenes which looked upon the cre.a- tjon of this nation the I’resident ad dressed a small gathering of officials and of diplomats .of the allied na tions. But he spoke to the world and be spoke the logical sequel to his ■force without stint or limit" de claration of several weeks ago. Whether the I’resident was ad dressing lus remarks directly to the recent speech of German foreign Secretary von Kuslimann; or to the foreshadows of a renewed German peace offensive, or whether he mere ly took the occasion of the celebra tion of American independence to emphasize to the world the war aims of the nation, rati only bo divined. Hr did not deal with the progress of the war nr any particular phase of it. but he spoke eloquently of America's attitude toward Germ ar.v'c so-called peace treaties in the cast by grouping the people of Rus sia "for the moment unorganized and helpless." among- the. peoples of the world standing against the en emies of liberty. The president s speech in full was as follows: "Gentlemen of the Diplomatic corps and my fellow citizens: I am happy to draw apart with you to this quiet place of old counsel in order to speak a little of the meaning of this day of our nation's independence. The place seems very still and remote. It is as serene and untouched by hurry of the world as it was in those great days long ago when General Washington wans here and held leisurely confer ence with the men who were to be as sociated with him in the creation of a nation. From these gentle slopes they looked out upon the world and saw it whole, saw it with the light of the future upon it, saw it with mod ern eyes that turned away from a past winch men of liberated spirits '•ould no longer endure. It is for that teason that we cannot feel, even here. In the immediate presence of this sa red tomb, that this is a place of death It was a place of achieve ment A great promise that was rne.int f.-r all mankind was here giv en plan and reality. The assoria t'ons by which vve are here surround 'd are the inspiring associations of that noble drain which is only a glo rious consummation.

MARKING TIME IN LOWELL STRIKE Lowell. Mass.. July 4—N'o worrl was received from the Endicott i Hoard of Public Safct> today, to which the Lowell Textile Workers referred the cotton mill strike last night. and both sides marked time in the settlement of existing differ ences. The mill gates will be open again tomorrow morning, but as the mills operate only during the forenoon of Saturday, the termination of the strike will not become effective until Monda. if at that time. It is felt that definite action will be taken to morrow. by which the strike will be left to the Endicott Hoard or to the national war labor board. The mill treasurers Tiave agreed to the latter' board. The disposition of both sides apparently is to end the strike as quickly as possible. Y NATIONS OBSERVE 4TH England, France, Italy, South America and other Countries Celebrate America’s National Holiday As Never Before Day in United States Observed in A Most Unusual Manner Washington, July 4—From the shadow of Washington’s Tomb, President Wilson todaj offered America’s declaration o{ Independ ence to the peoples of the world, with a pluedgc that the United States and its Allies will not sheath the sword in the war against the Central Powers until there is s» ttled once tor all” tor the world, what was settled for America in 1776. Foreign born citizens of the United States, 33 nationalities, who had placed wreaths of palms on the Tomb in token ot fealty to the principles laid down by the father of his coun try, cried their approval of his words in many languages and then stood with reverently bared heads while the voince of John McCormack soared over the hallowed ground in the notes of the “Star Spangled Banner" The speaker's crisp words as he emphasized the least which America will consider as a basis for peace were interrupted by a tumult of ap- j plause and words of approval in many tongues. i Elaborating the purposes for which the "associated peoples ot the world” I are lighting, the president reiterated that peace can be made only when the Central Powers agreed to the de struction of militarism, the consent I of the governed for all readjustments, the saeredness of treaties and the or ganization of a leaguo of peace. He further forestalled any offers of peace i by compromise which the Central Powers may make by announcing j that the purposes for which the Uni- ted States is sending millions of its j 1 men to the trenches may not be fit! j tilled around a council tabic. Throughout his address the Presi i rlcnt referred to "the peoples’’ who arc fighting against autocracy, stross ing thereby the unity of purpose which actuates the Allied nationss. On the other hand, he differentiated i [between the people ot Germany and their rulers, as he has always done, speaking of the isolated, *r'cndly j group of governments whose people are fuel in their hands. A single reference to Russia gave notice to the world that the 1 nitedu States still accounts .the peoplues of the younges democracy at allies. I President Wilson enumerated the opponents of Germany as peoples of j umany rarues, the people of struicken Russia still, among the rest, though [they are for the moment unorganiz i ed and helpless. "Especial interest i attached to his words, particularly (Continued on Pago J—Col. 5) IN ENGLAND London. July 4—No country ever celebrated the national anniversary of another country as the people of Great Britain today celebrated the Fourth of July. Not alone in I-on don, but throughout the kingdom, the American anniversary was com memorated. The Fourth began in London Wednesday night. Theaters and mu sic halls were decorated with the Stars and Stripes and several thou sand American soldiers and sailors on leave were entertained. American flags were out on build ings all ever London for the second time in history the Stars and Stripes waved above the great tower of the Parliament buildings in Westmm ster, alongside the Union Jack.

This is surely a fitting place from which calmly to look out upon our task, that we may fortify our spirits j for its accomplishment. And this is the appropriate; place from which to avow, alike lo the friends who look on and to the friends with whom we have the happiness to be associated in action, the faith and purpose with which we act. "This, then, is our conception of the great struggle in which wc nro engaged. The plot is written plain upon every scene and every act of the supreme tragedy. On the one j hand stand the peoples of the world—not only the people actually engaged, but many others who suf fered under mastery hut cannot act: peoples of many races and every part of the world—the peoples of stricken Russia still, among the. rest, though they are for the mo‘ ment unorganized tind helpless. Opposed to them, masters of many armies, stand an isolated, friendless group of governments who speak no common purpose but only self ish ambitions of their own by which none can profit but themselves, and 1 w'hose peoples are fuel in their hands; governments which fear j their people and yet are for the tune their sovereign lords, making every choice for them and disposing of their lives and fortunes as they will, I as well as of the lives and fortunes of every people who fall under their power—governments clothed with the strange trappings and the primitive authority of an ago that is altogether alien anil hostile to our own. Tile Past and I’resent are in deadly grapple and the peoples of the world arc being done to death between them. "There can be but one issue. The settlement must be final. There can be no compromise. No half way decision would, be tolerable. No half way decision is conceivable. These are the ends for which the as sociated peoples of the world are fighting and which must he conced ed them before there can be peace. "I—The destruction of every ar bitary power anywhere that can separately, secretly, and of its sing- j le choice disturb the peace of the world; or, if it cannot be presently destroyed, at the least its reduction to virtual impotence. "11—The settlement of every rpies tion. whether of territory, of souv ereigntv. of economic arrangement of political relationship upon the basis of the free acceptance of that settlement by the people immediate ly concerned, and not upon the basis of the material interest or advan- j tage of any other nation or people which may desire a different settle ment for the sake of its own exter ior influence or mastery. j "HI—The consent of all nations ro be governed in their conduct towards each other by the same principles of honor and of respect for the common law of Civilized society that govern the indi- j vidual citizen- of all modem slates in their relations With one another; to the end that al! promises and covents mav be sacredly observed, no private plots e sold 1 springer for' $110 and 6 cows from $7.5 to $90.

QUIETEST FOURTH FOR GARDINER Gardiner residents thought >ast year that they were being treated to a quiet Fourth but the one this year has even that beaten. An almost Sabbath-like stillness pervaded the city, broken only now and then wsUi the toot of a horn or the snap "f a pistol. Not a single arrest was made for drunkenness and not a a incident worthy the attention of the police had been reported up to late j evening. All the stores with the ex ception of the fruit stores were dos ed all day long. If John Barleycorn had any friends in Gardiner they treated him rather coolly. All those owning ears made the most ..f a deasant day and wont somewhere n l trip. Travel on the steam and elee ric roads was unusually light for ueh a day. Hallowell was some 1-ing of an attraction and drew nany from Gardiner. The celebration Lewiston also called some in 'hit lirection. Tacoma Inn was repot t d as liberally patronized and many amilies went to their camps on stream or at Pleasant pond, ihe fleet tf boats that remained at their moor ngs at the New Mills was reduced to l minimum. Some few disciples of saac Walton got an early start for he fishing grounds. Bells vv to rung hroughout the city and a bonfire started in Randolph. W hile the •oungsters were up to their usual tight before pranks there was nothi ng of a serious nature reported. The tight before had but one feature, lilhoolcys Cadet Band turned out. Securing an old-fashioned chaise, hese Farmingdale musicians, abo,/. 0 in number, loaded in some young r lads and with red fire burning torn the top, marched to Depot quare where about 2 o'clock they -a'e a really tine conceit.

DETAILS OF AMERICANS SUCCESSFUL ADVANCE NEAR CHATEAU THIERRY General Pershing’s Communique Gives Graphic Account of Capture of aux and Woods to the North—Counter Attacks of Germans Quickly and Decisively Repulseu j —Casualties Light Compared With That of Enemy—Artillery Battle of Great Intensity With Americans Holding Their Own Washington. July 4—In a continu ation of Tuesdays communique Gen eral Pershing today reported in graphic detail on the successful American operations near chateau Thierry Monday and described activ ities along the various fronts held by Americans during several preceding days. The despatch follows "Hectton F (continued): The suc ce^*ful attack made by our troops in the Chateau Thierry region on the evening of July 1. was earried out by two battalions of I'mted States In fantry The attack was preceded by n finely executed artillery preparation vht' li was executor by American bat teries nnd lasted twelve hours. The infantry action commenced at six n lock in the evening. Ail objectives were gained and our positions consol idated m» morning the Germans counter-attacked. Thanks to the thorough consolidation of the positions uhiih had been made, the counter-attack was repulsed with heavy losses to the enemy in killed and wounded. It also resulted in ’he taking by us of additional prisoners. The number of prisoners so far counted Is over son and includes six officers. Our casualties were light considering the score obtained. "In the Chateau Thierry region be. tween noon June -j unu ov uac**? considerable activity of various sorts although no important developments took place. The German artillery was again aggressive, delivering much harassing fire during the morn i ing hours. This was directed in part on our ad vance positions along the Belleau Clerembauts and Marette Woods, and was especiisliy heavy on the right of our positions Numerous points in our rear i areas were also shelled. The tire was continuous rather triau heavy. Hig. explosive, shrapnel and a small amount of gas were all employed. Besides de livering harassing fire, the German b«‘ teries were obviously attempting to reg I ister on some of the roads In our rear. "Our own batteries vigorously return ed tho fire and at one point registered j directly upon a detachment of the en emy. The activity of the German air j planes like that of the German artil i lory was notable in being continuous rather than concentrated at or.e time or place. More than the usual number of balloons were In evidence. One of the hostile planes was brought down by J anti-aircraft fire opposite the right of our sector and forced to land behind its own lines. Numerous groups of men passed frequently along the roads run ning between Glvry, Kpaux, Bnileau, Bonnes. Grisolles, Etriepilly, Latartre and Plaisance. Wagons and trucks moved along the same routes singly j and in large groups. Infantry' activity on both sides was normal. "Along the Marne on the 2Sth and 23th I of June the German artillery continued 1 to deliver the scattered but fairly vig j orous fire of the days preceding. This i day, however, the heaviest fire was on the left rather than on the right of the; sector.

The same after-; noon he took the oath of fidelity to! the Turkish constitution and I'M guns' proela.med the new sovereign. Mohammed V was born in Con stantinoplo November 3, 1S45. He was of a studious disposition and i read widely in Turkish literature. His long imprisonment with lack of exer cise and rich living undermined his health and several times he was re- ported dead or seriously ill. His ap pearanoe showed the ravages of time and the worries of an unsteady throne. Ily his enforced seclusion he was totally unfit for public life and is reported to have said regarding it: "Poring my imprisonment of 33 years my enemies have slandered me and called me a madman bordering on imbeciltiy." He was characterized as good matured, weak and ingenuous,! with an almost infamile curiosity.! and of a religious nature. At his accession he espoused the cause of the Young Turks, the party which was in opposition to the form and ceremony of his brother's reign. I'pon the deposition of Abdul Mo- 1 hammed was welcomed by them as a champion of freedom. He promised a progressive reign in a speech from the throne read by the Grand Victor. He was. however, merely a pawn of the Young Turk party, although he sent out to world the message that he had always been th“ ardent sup porter of the enuse of liberty cn- 1 enlightenment and progress. His hand in the go\eminent was never strong. Illress, a naturally easy disposition and weak will power kept him continually at the mercy of the Turkish officers and the liberal party, lie feared deposition during the Turko-Italian war in 1911 and spent a night praying in the various shrines of Constantinople. He appealed to the arm; to be lo\a! to him and said that their treasonable demands en couraged the enemy to attack the Dardanelles. He also lost most of his Kuropean dominions in the Balkan wars. The Young Turks invaded the palace in 1913 when Mohammed was reported to have become reconciled! with his brother. In 1914. at the outbreak of the pres ent war. Mohammed issued a procla mation blaming the triple Entente with thrusting war on Turkey. Me exchanged telegrams of greeting with the Herman Emperor from whom no later received the Iron Cross.

Witnessed at Pittsfield' on Fourth Crowd of 5000 See Beet Card Ever He'd at Union Trotting Park— Dandy, Alfred Todd, Marvel C, and Kate the Winners Pittsfield, Me., July 4—With the most favorable of weather and ev erything ideal for trotting. Colonel Walter G. Merrill had the pleasure of seeing a crowd conservatively es timated at 5,000 people assemble at Union Trotting Park to witness what was undoubtedly the best racing ev- er seen in Pittsfield and remarkable racing for this time of year. The Colonel was given an ovation by the enthusiastic crowd and he well de serves it for the vigorous courage displayed by a man of his age in planning and carrying out an event of the magnitude of today's pro gram. He stands without a peer in Maine as a promoter of racing events. Even now he is planning an August meeting to be held at Union Trotting Park but has not decided on the exact dates as yet. The Col onel had the added satisfaction and pleasure of seeing Marvel C.. one of his string of trotters, win first money in the 2.25 class. People from all sections of the state were in attendance at this meeting and all were expressing themselves as highly pleased with the day’s program. It was a big, 1 good nntured crowd and all the familiar faces among thhe horse- j men anrl race enthusiasts were to be j seen in the grand stand or along the j fence along the home stretch. There j were good speedy horses and good i large fields and theh drivers made things hum to get the money. The 2.20 class was the first one called and it took five heats to get this race finished. "Buster” Rieh ardson's horse Dandy, the Great got first money after landing in sixth position theh first heat and second in the second heat. Speed wood, a bay gelding owned by C. B. Pratt of Brunswick, got second money. Murtah Hughes' Peter I.ederor land ed third and Omeda Mine from tho i Hudson Farms in Guilford had the fourth money. The h;g stake race was won fcy Al fred Todd of the Hudson string.! Seven horses came nut for the word, I Kohl Mr Bet b, owned by Weymouth! of Newport, drawing the pole. In the second heat of this race thete.' was a collision between Weymouth and F. W. Carpenter, who was driv ing Baron Sidnut. The sulkies were considerably damaged hut the driv ers escaped without a scratch which wits very fortunate, considering the large field of horses. The Monk, own ed by Pinkham of Harpswell, von thin second heat, but Hudson’s Al fred Todd came back strong in the third and fourth and won both heats and the first money. Tho second money went to the Monk, Black Pe ter had third money and Carpenter of Bath won fourth. The 2.25 race was a lively art iris and the excitement of this race suit caused in the second heat when "Buster” Richardson’s Duke of Canuck fell directly in front of the granstand at the finish of the second heat. In the mixup Clarence McAl lister. who was driving N»tcy Forbes, was thrown from his sulky and the mare made an extra half mile dragging the damaged sulkv. The comedy for this heat was stag ed by W. A. Rich of Etna driving T-eonna Patchen, who seemed to have a strong way of pulling along and the driver probably anticipating pom» instructions from the starter frankly admitted that he collide hold her. “Don’t >1014 want us to put up a new driver?” ejueried Vin ir.g. but the old man w game and stuck cut the heat although- be caused considerable delay as the horse invariably weht half way round the course before she could be brought down. The next heat she appeared with a new driver. Col Morrill’s Marvel driven by Walter Webb, captured -trrs race in three straight after Ian ng fourth In th first heat. Graves “Queen Irene” g second. Nuncey ForD’s third. The Inst rgee on the card .the 2.17 class was a pretty race to, tmtgh and Kate it chestnut mare owned by Richardson had' speed ehough to handle this race in three straight heats, the bnl^ race for the afternoon that went in straight heats. Vassar C., owned by Jacksor. of Bangor landed second but was given lively business by "Tom” Holmes who handles the Hudson string. Third money went to Sonorah owned by Johnson of Portland .ad Indiana Dil lon fi ythe same owner got fourth The officials were: Starter Frank N. fining of st.

IN AMERICA (Continued from Page One) to the statement that Russia's dis tress is oniy temporary, because of i plans notv being formulated for giv ing assistance to the country. Boris Bakhmeteff, who was rent here as Russian amuhassador during the Kerensky regime, was in the audi ence. Preceding tne President's address Fe- lix St. Veyckmans of Chicago, a na m e Belgian and chairman of the com-: mittee of foreign nationalities, mad* public confession of the devotion of the foreign-befrn to the home of their adop- tion. I luring the trip to and from Mount Vernon on the Mayflower President Wil- j Eon had many intimate personal taiks with the representatives of people who j have left their native lands to And j homes in America. Testing out senti ment, seeking opinions, he asked many questions, interjecting now and then a sharp phrase or two, then passing down the deck to another group—C*tchc-Slu-; vaks, Chinese, Hungarian, even Ger man, for the natives of countries whose j governments are America's enemies: were among the visitors to the shrine of freedom they have found in the new; world. The informality of the trip down was abandoned at the landing. A fanfare of trumpets and the ruffle of drums ae- i companied the President over the side, j He landed to tind rigid lines of marines, j tanned by long training and many of j them wearing ribbons denoting several j campaigns, drawn up as a guard of' honor, while scores of others formed a wall up the gentle slopes, through the woods and to the tomh. Behind them stood thousands of persons who basieg- ed the restraining lines for a closer gi.mp.se of the President nnd whose greeting for him literally made the hill sides ring. After the President and his party ha.l taken their stand before the tomb he ordered that the marines be drawn in i loser so that the persons without tick ets of admission might better hear the exercises. When the marines move! up the effect was like the sudden un damming-of a great wall of Witter, the spectators being thrust down the roll-1 ing slopes by the pressure behind. For j a moment it looked as if a tragedy would be caused by the trampling of the 1 weaker, but the marines closed with! rides held across the breasts and the flood was checked. Mrs. Wilson’s Massage to Women of America Washington. July 4-This Indepen dence Day message was si veil today to the women or America by Mrs.! Wilson, wife of the president: Tlw greeting which I am glad to send to the women of our beloved country who arc playing so large and so noble a part in this day of our su preme test can have but a single thought for its theme, tlie thought j that is in all our hearts. That thought is thar we are sus taining. not a government, but the t ry principle of our notion’3 life. The morale of the war is in the thoughts and aspirations and hopes of the women as well us of the men. "They stand at the very renter of every issue involved, as the men do and in that sense the war is iheirs. It is a war for what is humane and! right. They can put nil that is best ot them into the struggle. And they! are doing so. "I deeply admire them and am proud to stand with them. A now I -lory attaches to the Fourth of July becaure we are striving to make the world free. IN NEW ENGLAND Hoston. July 4—The celebration of; Independence Day throughout New; England resolved itself into an ex-! presslon of loyalty on the part of thousands of foreign-l orn c.tlzens who had a prominent part in obser- vances in various centers. Men and women of every race and nationality participated in parades and mass, meetings. The holiday was probably never more generally celebrated than today and a deeper spirit of patriot ism was manifpst. Because of re- j strtetions upon the sale_ of fire works, the usual noise of "th fourth" was missing. President William H. P. Fannie of Brown Fniversity was the pr.ncipal speaker at a mass meeting in this eitv today held in Fnneuil hall which was attended by citizens of foreign birth. Tonight. Boston Common will be the scene of patriotic exercises fol'owing Panama Joins in Observance Panama. July 4.—President Frrtole, the eabinrt and Allied and Batin-Ainer Pan diplomats joined tl> s American ot ony today in celebrating the Fo e:h of July. The Presid *at said this action by the government was evidence that: ail resentment agal 1st tnj p dicing of Panama and felon n Amor:-an troops; has disappeared. Gen.

Joffre’s Massage Paris, July 4—Marshal Joffre, in special message written for the Echo tie Pari* on the occasion of the Fourth of .July, says in part: "The entry of America into the war brought the allies moral j strength of the deepest meaning, but the grent sister republic did not want to content herself with senti- i mental manifestations.

All nchta of repubilcstion o. spec.ai dispatches herein ere «Iso reserrea. Friday, July 5, 1918. TKa Fif ht of tha Brawery Intareat*. Many Kennebec Journal readers have been deeply stirred by the fact that prominent government officials have come out openly for the booze interests and in opposition to national prohibition. We have received some stinging communications concerning the attitude of President Samuel (iompers of the American Federation of Labor; and of Chairman Hurley, of the U. S. Shipping Hoard; and of Hambridge Colby of the Shipping Board; anu especially of the part placed by postma'ter-tieneral Burle son We hace felt too deeply disappoint- ed at the attitude of the administra tion on the liquor question to deal i with tt as calmly, at all times, as the l country's critical affairs ndvis;. We mean the attitude of politicians catering to the booze interests and excusing the tremendous economic waste, while driving millions who have never known other than the here necessities of life to pledges of unusual saving and penury—while bloated tradesmen are piling up mil lions at the people's expense and in full view of all the government’s minions. \t r mean the saving at the vent of the nation's resources while leaving the luing wide open. We mean the attempt to drive^the struggling millions of sober Christian people to half rations, iucl and cloth ing while maintaining a money grubbing business for the wallowing of extravagantly paid (out of the people's money) workers in fayored yvar Industries We mean that Mr. Hoover should net be surprised at lack of en thusiastic support of his food saying plan at sometime* sullen accept ance of, and even opposition to. the government s high banded pretense. In some g*es l«et us examine the testimony of government exports nd trusted agents and advisers before the t\ S. .“senate agricultural lommittcr on June 'J5. The spectacle was illumi nating a lean, strong man with the rourage of his cony n tens Secretary of tie N.iyy I'aniels. a-alnst Chair mun Hurley. Mr Colby, and the law yers of the shipping board, Samuel (iompers and Mr. Burleson. And the spectacle was one to shame enlight en«d ttnerbans. For inst.in e Mi te mpers, head of American labor and with great in fluence at the White House, made one of his characteristic pro-brewery spee. hes. In which he expressed the conviction that we must cater to the opinion of the Teuton blood in our midst they must haye their beer," he declared. This Is the same Samuel Ciompers who shouts of his patriotism and of what he is doing to hold labor to its duty. But our American-made laws are not good enough for his "Teu tonic workers" and they xvill not work If Oi l? laws Interfere with them. Can any red-blooded American re member an act of disloyalty or sedi tion in Ibis country that make* his blood boil more than that utterance of Sam (iompers It xxas probably true of (iompers' Teiitonli wot her--." but it was a libel of, an outrageous lie against, the great majority of \merlcun labor— and liompers would h.iye the com para'iye few of those whose blood we are fighting i ontrol us all in Amer ica as they haye controlled us for two. generations. Kyen yvhtle (iompers was on his feet before the Senate committee, a telegram from the representatives of go* non trade unionists, petttioning for prohibition, came to tha commit tee giving the lie direct to Gempera' declaration. Here I* another epecimen: Mr. Hurley, the halrmun cf the United Staten Shipping Hoard, via major witness for the wets, testimony wan probably the moitj tnniahing in character ever by a Government official congreeeional committee, espected to m\e tnforr frankly declared thgi he uf*on which prohibition wol among the wol •-ani.

"Then statements therein are relia- bleT' "They should be. "I want to read from some Issues or that paper," continued Senator Ken yon. “and aa I read I want you to re member that the Pacific Coast sh'P". i building yards are practically all under prohibition. Here is the issue for March 11. It says ‘West Still Sets the Pace for Country.' Another issue has the head. 'Workers on Coast Show Fine Spirit.' The April 29th issue says. Pa-, cirtc Riveters Lead in Averages. The May Sth issue has a table showing the 26 ships built in the shortest time, and I find that the records were held by Skinner Eddy in the prohibition State of Washington, and by the L nion Iron Works, also out that way." Mr. Hurlev admitted that efficiency in the dry states was at top notch, but said that the workmen in those yards were Americans. It was revealed that 12S.2S3 ship workers are in dry territory and 209.157 in wet. Again Mr. Hurley was questioned: "Isn't Mr. Piez at the head of your, Emergencv Fleet Corporation?" "He is the Vice-President." Testimony by Mr. Piez before the Appropriations Committee of the House of Representatives was read. 1 This was to the effect that on the Pacific Coast, under prohibition, the workers have shown a ton output of wentv as compared with sixteen for the wet Eastern yards and ten for ttngiann. Again Mr. Hurley impressed the j fact that he was only stating an opinion. ’'There is no doubt of the efficiency of workmen in dry terri tory.” he said. It was also brought out that many ex-bartenders and saloonkeepers were now building ships in dry territory and getting top wages. Mr. Hurley said that many j of the men were making from $50 to $75 per week. "And yet you still think that they would be disaffeced if heir beer were taken away from them,” remarked a Senator. Postmaster-General Burleson testi- fled only because he had been “smoked out.” He had been working against the measure behind the 1 scenes, and it was demanded that he come out into the open. His testi mony hurt the wet case greatly. Mr. Colby, of the Shipping Board, expressed great regret because his testimony for the wets appeared in the Washington papers as an ad vertisement. He said that the Wash ington Post had informed him that the Washington Times had sent the ad over and that it had been paid for j by "Bob” Crain. The Times is a vio lent pro-beer organ, and Crain is a brewery attorney. All in all. the hearing before the i Senate committee was a damning demonstration of the manner in which the booze interests “get to” government officials and those in I position to influence legislation—and VOTES. Secretary of the Navy Daniels gave i 1 straight, clean-cut, weil-wrapped-up testimony in regard to actual facts within his personal knowledge. At 1 no time did he express an opinion j without citing the place where that I opinion was formed and telling in detail the circumstances that shaped it. The so-called dry order in the na\ has improved efficiency in every particular and Is now approved al- most unanimously by the naval of ficers, even those who resented it at first,” he said. "And I make no dis tinction between the men who are building our fighting ships and those who man them. The ship workers are just ns patriotic as the fighting men. Most of the workers are sober men. but in every case where a ship building community has gone dry j 1 we have noted increased efficiency. •’Two notable cases were Mare Island, California, and Newport, i Rhode Island. Conditions at these places were deplorable until they were made dry by a zone order. They are very Important yards in deed. When the order was issued at j Mare Island there were many pro- j tests and predictions that the work- ing output would be decreased. The j j men who objected at first now ap prove the dry order, and efficiency I has steadily improved, with the. re suit that we have secured an in creased output. Recently, since the dry order, the Mare Island yard es- i tablished a world's record in the time required to launch a destroyer, i “Also, I want to say that not a single workman has shewn disaffec tion because of prohibition. They have shown themselves just as patriotic as the soldiers and sailors. What Is the Answer? It is mighty difficult to get drunk on per cent beer—National Food Ad ministrator, Herbert C. Hoover. But why is it a "necessary” occu- i million hundred material, and troclaims—and the President ac epts)what is the answer? Is it not about time that ••free” Americans awoke to the class of peo ile that is running this country—and nfluencing the government the .ooze making, selling and guzzling lass?

T OUR BOYS Sergeant C. F Abbott of China, who is with the First Division of the Motor Supply Train in France, writes as follows: France. June 4. 191$. I have received some fine letters from you lately and it seems so nice to get them. My. hut it is getting hard for me to write what I want to and have it sound right. We have -been having some fine weather lately, not even a shower for the last three weeks. Nights the 1 sky will be just as clear-but this is what we get when we have these pretty evenings—about 10.30 and sometimes later we will hear the hum of the Hun planes in the dis tancc. The hum of the machines will 'come nearer and nearer, then all at j once not a sound can be heard. Then we know he is coasting down toward his objective which may be a factory, j storehouse or some pretty village. Very soon heavy explosions arc heard one after another. The earth will shake and how the tile roofing, dirt and slivers fly. Immediately the Hun motor starts and bang goes the anti-aircraft. Sometimes Mr. Hun re turns and sometimes he doesn't. During these raids men, women and children who are not sleeping in the woods or fields seek shelter 'n idugouts or safety trenches. We truck drivers generally beat it. too. Just imagine the feelings of the poor women and children returning to find their homes in ruins, or sup pose they didn't get out before the raid. If they were inside a house struck by a bomb they would either be instantly killed or buried beneath the ruins. Of course Mr. Hun doesn t always hit his target and 'sometimes drops liis bomb outside the village. All the people work hard in the fields. I have seen numbers of wo men following harrows, plows, etc. Women also run dairies. I have seen farmers at work in fields with Hun shells striking around them. This shows that every bit of land obtain able is farmed in France. I have so much to tell you when I return, lots of thrilling sto ries. I know you will be patient if I don't write oftencr.

KENNEBEC RESCRIPTS Damages Awarded Alzada Thurston In Case Against Railroad, Found Excessive The following rescripts in Kenne bec county cases have been handed down by the Law Court, sitting at Portland: Benton and Fairfield Street Rail road Company, vs. Alzada Thurston, in Review. In this case the jury found a ver dict for the defendant in review for $3,737.00. The case comes up on >he usual form of motion. The verdiet of the jury upon the question of li ability eannot be disturbed. But the damages are manifestly excessive. It is the opinion of this court that $1300 13 ample and liberal. The amount here allowed is more than the defendant in review obtained at the first trial. It is therefore ordered: Motion sustained unless the amount of the verdict above be remitted within 30 days from the certification of this de cision. Received July 3rd, 1918.

RCGAN LEAVES HOSPITAL Injuries Apparently Not as Serious As At First Supposed James Kogan, r.ight watchman at the Vickery Hill publishing house, who was injured at about midnight Wednes day by catching his left leg between the gate of an elevator and a beam and was taken to the Augusta general hos pital for treatment, was c,n Thursday able to be removed to his home on Ce dar street. On being taken to the hos pital following his release from the elevator it was feared that his left leg was fractured, but the report Thursday afternoon from, the hospital was that his injuries were not as serious as at tirst feared.

The amount of the fine r.ot being forthcoming he was committed. Fourth Was Quiet The Fourth of July, so far as Au gusta was concerned, passed about ns j quietly as the majority of people can remember, and was almost wholly! devoid of any of the features that usually characterize the day. "The night before, which is usually more or less productive of noise on the part j of Young America at least, was so j quiet that even people of delicate1 nerves had no difficulty iu getting a good night's rest, and the only slum ber-disturber of the night occurred soon after midnight, when the lire alarm was rung in, not for a tire but for the purpose of getting out help; in the case of James Kogan, night j watchman at the Vickery Hill pub- lishlng house who was caught by an elevator. The Fourth itself was equally quiet, one reason being perhaps that there were no fireworks to be had, the city issuing no licenses tills year to deal ers. Many people were out of town for the day, quite a number going to Hallowell, where the Odd Fellows had a Field Pay observance which provided an attractive program for both morning and afternoon and wound up with a ball in the evening. The Augusta Country Club also had a Liberty golf tournament at its 'clubhouse in Fast Winthrop which called out not a small number of peo I pie, other people went to the lakes in the vicinity of the city, and to the seashore, aqd take it all in all there were not many stav-at-honies. One of the patr.otic decorations of windows along Water street in honor of the Fourth of July was that of the Melville Smith Son, which was in good taste and attracted no small amount of attention. Against a bark ground of American fags was a large portrait of George Washington, Ameri ca's first President, and surmounting this wan a fine l^Ilee!n',en e? a bald headed eagle.
