The Waldo County Convention.
The Waldo county convention for the
purpose of nominating a candidate for
sheriff, was held last Monday. There
was a large and enthusiastic gathering of
the earnest, working Republicans from
all parts of the county, called to order
by Dr. O. S. Vickery and the convention
organized by the choice of Judge of Pro
bate, Ellery Bowden as chairman and
County Attorney Ralph I. Morse as sec
retary. Judge Bowden held the close at
tention of the convention by an eloquent
and forceful speech, preliminary to the
dispatch of the business for which the
convention was called. Brief and ai^
propriate speeches presented the follow
ing citizens of Waldo county to the con
vention for balloting: Frank A. Little
field of Monroe, S. E. Bowler of Palermo,
Fred W. Curtis of Belfast, W. L. Gray of
Troy. On the third ballot Mr. Littlefield
was nominated, receiving 47 votes while
Mr. Bowler had 28 and Mr. Curtis had
eight, Mr. Gray withdrawing.
Resolutions endorsing equal suffrage
received a unanimous passage. Both old
timers and the young men of the Republi
can party were in attendance in about
equal numbers. A general feeling found
expression, as the delegates exchanged
greetings, that the convention plan of
nomination was better than the tedious
and expensive primary method. After
the business of the convention was finish
ed Hon. H. M. Cook of Augusta delivered
an excellent address, in which he pre
sented the important issues of the cam
paign in a clear and logical way, holding
the close attention of his hearers from
the first word to the last. Several ladies
were at the convention and manifested
great interest in the vro ceedings.

mer Belfast boy:
WESTFIELD, July 30. Miss Kathryn
E. Brown, supervisor of drawing in the

M. Condon, secretary of the Northampton
Y. M. C. A., were married at 5 o’clock
this afternoon in the home of the bride’s
parents, Mr. and Mrs. J. I. Brown of 62
Jelferson street. Rev. W. S. Ayres, pas
tor of the Baptist church, officiated. The
couple w’as unattended. The bride wore
brussels net over ivory satin and carried
an arm bouquet of swreet peas and roses.
Following the ceremony there was a re
ception and there were selections by the
members of the family quartet, which
comprised Mrs. Condon, Mrs. Stewart
Esten of New Haven, Fred Brown of
Stamford, Conn., and Aubrey Brown of
Columbus, O. The family quartet occu
pied a prominent place in musical circles
here some years ago. The bride was
graduated at the High school here and
Normal Art School in Boston. Previous
to beginning his work in Northampton
two years ago Mr. Condon was an assist
ant secretary in the Pittsburg Y. M. C A.

son, both of Belfast, were married at

bouquet of white carnations. They were
attended by Mr. and Mrs. George Daggett
of Poor’s Mills. The groom is the son of
Mr. and Mrs. Roscoe T. Cross of Morrill
and his bride is the daughter of Mr. and
Mrs. Philip Jackson of Montville. After
a short bridal trip they will return to Bel
fast, their future home.
Mr. and Mrs. Walter A. Wadsworth of

Harding Face to Face.
Hon. Guy P. Gannett of Augusta, mem
ber of the Republican National Commit
tee, has just returned from Ohio. While
there he went to Marion to take part in
the ceremonies in connection with the
notification of Senator Harding of his
nomination. Mr. liannett had long talks
with Senator Harding and was able to
bring back to Maine a first hand view of
the Republican candidate and to give a
word picture of this most interesting of
Americans from the viewpoint of a Maine
man. Mr. Gannett said:
I’ve come back from Marion filled with
the keenest enthusiasm over the person
ality of the Republican candidate for
President. I do not know how I can ex
press it better than to say that Senator
Harding impressed me as the kind of a
man you would select to serve as execu
tor of your estate.
I’ve been privileged to meet a good
many prominent men, one time and an
j other, and lots of prominent meu have
given me the feeling that they are in
sincere—a,l words and no real heart or
feeling. Senator Harding impressed me
exactly the other way; he struck me as a
man of absolute sincerity. He is the
kind of a man I would gladly entrust
with any responsibility in the world with
the full assurance that he w'ould look
after it carefully.
And, after all, isn’t that the kind of a
man we want for President? He is not one
of the loud shouting, promise-anything
t\ pe of a politician, but quiet, reserved,
thoughtful—a real statesman.
I liked particularly about Mr. Harding
the fact that, on the one hand, he does
his own thinking, but on the otner hand
he is willing to take expert advice before
he arrives at a conclusion. I had a good
example of that characteristic of his
when the question of his visit to Maine
came up. I invited him on behalf of the
Republican organization and the people
of Maine to come to our State. After
I expressing his appreciation for the invi
[ lation and his desire to visit Maine, he
j replied that he would discuss the matter
fully with the managers of the campaign
and together they would arrive at a de
cision.
We need in the President’s chair a man
who will do just what Senator Harding
did in that case. As he said in his speech:
! “There is no one man big enough to run
this country alone and unaided.”

THE NEW POWER LINE AT DEER
RIPS.
The new power line of the Central
Maine Power Company from Farming
dale to Deer Rips has reached the half
way mark of approximately 15 miles and
another three weeks should see the line
about completed and ready for business.
A crew of more than 100 men, four
teams and three auto trucks have been
concentrated^ at the big construction
camp which is pitched at Monmouth town
farm near Tacoma Lakes, and they are
pushing the work ahead rapidly. The
pole setters are progressing at the rate of
slightly under a mile a day. This is some
what less than scheduled time but is un
avoidable because of the slow delivery of
poles and other construction material.
A gang of 14 men and one big team
parted stringing the big power wire on
the poles last week and as they are able
to run the wire across at the rate of ap
proximately two miles a dav, they have
practically caught up with the pole set
ters.

21st. There was a prayer at thh home on
Congress street at 9 a. m. by Rev Charles
W. Martin. The deputy sheriffs were the
bearers. The house was filled with neigh
bors and friends, business associates and
the county officers. The funeral services
were held at 10.30 a. m. at the old home
stead in Montville, where he was born
and always lived until he went to Belfast
to take up his duties as High Sheriff. No
higher tribute of respect could be paid to
his life than the great number of people
that were present at the services, not
only the house being full but a large
number of people were on the lawn.
There were immense quantities of beau
tiful flowers from county officials, busi
ness associates, relatives, friends and
neighbors.
The bearers were life-long friends and
neighbors, Messrs. J. J. Clements, M. M.

conducted the services. She paid a glow
ing tribute to his life and character and
service to his town, county and State.
The burial was in the family lot in the
Plains Cemetery.
The following is an original poem re
vised and read at the funeral by Mrs.
Morgan:
RESIGNATION
Just yesterday we met him,
Heard his cheery greeting,
Saw him smile, and now
Our friend lies low.
When good men die
We humbly bow our heads
And acquiesce, but wonder why;
And so today
When he, our friend, lies low
We cannot understand,
But only pray,
And wait the time when we
Shall know, why they who
Are not only brave, but true,
Should have to go.
We need him much;
The page he left unfinished
Awaits his pen, his word, his touch;
And in this hour when
Many dangers threaten
And heavy clouds hang low,
We need his strength and courage
Most of all his power;
And we are grieved that he
Should have to go.
To us it seems his task is uncompleted
The work he craved to do
Is still undone;
And yet, O God, we bow in resignation
And simply say
Thy will, O Lord, be done.
ICE AND SNOW IN JULY.
A reminder of the hard winter we
struggled through was encountered by
the construction crew building the new
power-house for the Central Maine Power
Company at Skowhegan. While exca
vating under the lea of the old retaining
wall on Mill street, the men found a
healthy bank of snow and ice!
After the ice was dragged out of its
hiding place into the air, it didn’t last
long, but the engineers secured a photo
graph of it before it melted. Digging up
ice and snow in July is unusual, even in
Maine.
The steel work on the new power-house
is more than half completed and work
has been started on the new dam which
will be built from the end of the power
house across the south channel.
