THE SILENT SEWING MACHINE!
AS A FAMILY ASSISTANT,
The W illcox & liibbs Sew itiir Machine!
Will ho found to excel all others. T1 case with which it runs, its ready adaptation to all
kinds of work without delay or hoitai >n, its quiet fidelity, its
Superior Strength and Durability of Work,
are points that astonish anil delight al wlni make its acquaintance. Ladies who arc unfa
miliar witli this Machine, do not yet 1.now the full blessing and comlort of a Sewing Ma
chine in ti e family, though they may i assess many others and think they are satisfied.
•
In proof of this assertion is the significant fact,
That its strongest advocates and tin st enthusiastic admirers are always found among
those who have used and are most familiar with other leading machines.
From the thousands of testimonials from all parts of the country, we select the following
from the city of Augusta: ®
AUGUSTA, March, 1870.
Having used tho AVilloax & Gibbi Sowing Machine in our rospectivo families upon
all the various kinds of work required, sumo of us from ono to si* years, others tor
a shorter time, some of us also being familiar with the use of otlior loading machines,
wo cheerfully recommend it as a moat excellent family machine. It runs easily and
quietly, is simple and easy m its lanagomeut, does nut got out of order, is always
ready, its work is strong and durable, and in all respects gives most entire satisfaction.

JH,o. uiN.ii the inaei. Iment ..Her.-1 bv Mr tlink*
vt Buck-port, to the Aroostook Ihiih'o.Tt Bill.
Mr. Speaker :—1 do not xvish to inflict
upon tin- House a loug ami unnecessary
speech. Anxious as I knoxv every mem
ber is to be through with the business of
the session and go home, and no one is
more so than myself; if I could consist
ently, xx'it 11 the duly which! owe to my
constituents and the people of Aroostook,
permit this House to pa - tq>on this amend
ment without giving my reason xvhy it
ought t<- he adopted. I would gladtv do so.
But I cannot go home arid meet those who
honored me with a seat upon this floor,
without doing mv lies! to j remote their
infere t : by procuring tor them as
soon as may be the mean- of e< tnmani
eationxxith the outside xvorld, and open
u]> i route and a way, hy which the out
side world may C( me to us.
Mr. Speaker. What i contemplated hy
what i- popularly culled "a railroad to
Aroostook?” llo gentlemen on this floor
know what “Aroostook" is 1 what is its
extent, its latent xveahh, il- capabilities,
it- mijioitanee tu .Maiiir, ti ru n portion

But in order that it do mi, in order to make
this i.ill wlnit its name purports, it is ab
j solnteh ne<‘e--arv that the amendment of
my frit a] fr« ni Bueksport, should he made
to this hill I efore it bee an • a law. Sim
ply, In ean.-e in the .Tape it now is, it is
a bill to prevent Aroostook having a rail
road for an indefinite period, lather to
make one. IVbat does the hill as it now
stands propose ? It is to charter a com
pany to make a road from,at, or near Bati
cix.lt,upon the line id the li. tkN. A. lfail
i way, to, or near Houiton, and thence to
I’resquc 1 do. Now tl.i- plan is hot intend*
j oil in make a load, hut to prevent the mak
i ing of any road. And why lficause no
one will invi st ninney or attempt to make
any road m tl< r any such charter. There
is not a capitalist in the world who will
i invent a dollar in it. Jr will cost a mi!
I lion of dollars at least, to make that road
| to Houiton ; u.d when made, what will it
be worth? Within ti n or twelve miles to
ihe i a-:, nl lids p.npoM tl n tile, is the Mew
Brunsw iik iV Canada Uailwav connecting
Calais, St. Soq h -ns,;,ml St. Andicvvs with
lioulton, in pi mling almost wholly and
entirely upon Ari-osiuok county tor busi
lu s. It was made t<> tap Aroostook. It was
intended for that, and it sow tiers and mana
gers ares training ev t ry nerve to complete
a branch into 1 ion] on. and get the control
"t the Aroostook I U.-ilicss hetore Arrostook
can la tupped by e road in the direction of
Bangor. Thortu-l proposed >v tins bill and
that would he c imputing roads. Two
mads from Houiton, tra- just w -t of the
ca r lint of the Stale, and the other just
east of it, to tnke the T. &M.A. mad
at points about filteen mill t distant
In m t. ill oilier, to do the lusit.tss
i t Houiton, with its ■> duatiou of a whole
halt million, is a scheme worthy m the
railroad king.- ot tiiat town.
Now w ind does this oil! w ith the amend
in' ut of tho gvntl< man from fcncksport,
I a "pose It | I'nj o.-i s to d" i possible and
j ■tactical It- tain. on)'thing w iiieh can !"•

who lire in Aroostook know there ere streams
which indicate a route for a railroad into and
