The Woman’s Christian Temperance Un

city today, is an organization whose aim and
purpose are well known to the people of our
city and .State. Its labors in the ten years

fallen and rescuing the weak from the perils
of temptntiiin. No right-minded peraon can
fail t-i sympathize heartily with the work in
which the association is engaged, and to
wish that it may be attended with the fullest
measure of success.
THE PORTLAND ANDOGDENSBURC
AGAIN.
Last winter a bill was passed by the Maine
legislature providing a method of reorganiz
ing tlie Portland & (Igdensburg Company
after the road should come into the posses
sion of the second mortgage bondholders by
reason of the foreclosure proceedings then
pending in New Hampshire. That bill was
fully discussed. A meeting of the citizens
of Portland was held at which it was thor
oughly considered, and its provisions fully
explained by J udge Webb, one of the trus
tees of the second mortgage. The opin
ion expressed by that meeting was that the
reorganization features of the measure were
perfectly satisfactory. Objection was made
to the provision for the sale of the road,
and this was subsequently changed to
meet the .view's of Portland merchants,
but against the reorganization features
there was not one word of complaint.
Nobody suggested any other plan, or hint
ed that in any other way the interests
of tin; city could be so well, or better secured.
The Mayor was there, but he broached no
other scheme. Subsequently a bill substan
tially similar to thatadopted in Maine passed
the New Hampshire legislature. The fore
closure proceedings were pressed to a favor
able termination and everything was going
along smoothly under a plan that had been
thoroughly discussed and had received the
approval of the trustees of the second mort
gage bonds, and been ratified by the mer
chants of Portland after a full and free
discussion, and with a full understanding of
its provisions.
Precisely when or how or by whom it was
discovered that there might be a better way
to reorganize the road we cannot say.
But the first public intimation of it
came from the Mayor last Saturday
night in the shape of a letter to the Hon.
^ ' William L. Putnam, it is a little peculiar,
to say the least, that after the merchants
of Portland had expressly given their sane
in UM pniit CHiH.icu UlSL Will ter, UI1U IliiU
sent a committee of their own number to
Augusta to secure its passage, the Mayor,
who has always professed great deference to
the opinion of the merchants, should at this
late day be found broaching a new scheme,
which proposes to throw overboard the plan
sanctioned by them. It is also peculiar that
in his letter to Mr. Putnam the Mayor avoids
asking the latter s opinion as to the rela ■
tive merits of the foreclosure plan and the
“mutual agreement” pi an as regards the
security of the city’s interests. Last spring
the Mayor was so fearful lest the city might
lose the road that he advocated an amend
ment to the bill then pending! before the
legislature, forbidding a sale except by a
two-thirds vote of the people. But strangely
enough, in his letter to Mr. Putnam he neg
lects to ask the question that should have
been uppermost in his mind, namely, Which
of the two schemes will in your opinion best
secure the control of the city in the road?
There is another feature in this matter
which should not he overlooked, and that is
the neglect of the Mayor to call upon the
city solicitor for his opinion in regard to this
new scheme. Mr. Putnam, as attorney for
the second mortgage bondholders, represents
not only the city, but other holders of those
bonds, whose interests may not he identical
with the city’s. In that position Mr. Put
nam might feel some hesitation to give
advice solely in the interest of the city.
But the City Solicitor is the legal advisor of
the city, and hence would have regarded the
city’s interest alone in this matter. A favor
able opinion from Judge Symonds would
have greatly assisted the “mutual agree
ment” plan. Why did not the Mayor ask for
his views?
It seems a little strange also that Mr.
Deering should forget to ask the opinion of
tlie trustees of the second mortgage as well
as the trustees’ attorney. Judge Webb and
the Hon. C. F. Libby are lawyers of high
standing, and an opinion from them that
tire “mutual agreement" was better than the
foreclosure plan would have boomed the for
mer immensely. An endorsement from Mr.
J. S. Ricker is valuable no doubt, for he
is an able and honorable man, but he is
human and therefore liable to be biassed by
his interest in other enterprises which are
popularly supposed to be antagonistic to the
city’s control of the Portland & Ogdensburg
Railroad.
It seems to us exceedingly unfortunate if
the Mayor has discovered a better plan of se
curing the interest of the city in the Portland
& Ogdensburg than that endorsed by the
trustees of the second mortgage, the mer
chants of Portland and two State legislatures,
that he should have neglected to take these,
the most natural steps in the world, to con
vince the public of its superiority. It is not
too late, however, to take them now.
MAINE AND THE SMALL POX.
The chief topic of the discussion at the
last meeting ui ine ouue Board oi neaun
was the threatened epidemic of small pox.
The State Board realizes that upon itself
rests a great responsibility, and it is dis
posed to do its full duty. But it feels that
two things are absolutely necessary to enable
it to do so: the faithful cooperation of the
local boards and prompt action on the part
of the people themselves.
The increasing virulence of the epidemic in
Montreal is the more alarming because the
disease gained its foothold in summer. Small
pox as a general thing, works its ravages in
cold weather. If then, four thousand eases
have already occurred, what may the num
her he when the winter really sets in? The
chances of its importation into Maine in
crease as the season advances. As the State
Board points out, the principal danger lies in
the manufacturing places, the lumbering re
gions and the cities and towns which are in
any way immediately connected with Cana
dian towns where the disease has already ap
peared. It is in these places that the most
active measures of prevention should be tak
en. It is to these places that the circulars
issued by the State Board of Health have
special reference and in these places that
their recommendations should especially be
carried out. We do not have to contend
here with the superstitious pr judice against
vaccination, lor which the ignorant French
Canadians arc paying so dearly. We have
learned that only the vaccinated are on the
safe side, while the unvaccinated offer an in
vitation to the pestilence.
It behooves persons of all classes to be
watchful. People should remember that, at
such a time, in looking out for themselves
they are, at the same time, looking out for
their neighbors, and thus doing a public
good.
