The Annexer's Dream
lie was a citizen of St. Johns and
for long he hud advocated annexing
with Portland. He had depicted in
' glowing colors the many benefits
that would accrue therefrom j how
the streets would be better improv
cd and with greater rapidity, how
arc lights would be placed on every
street corner, how Dull Ruu water
would flow through the streets free
iy aim unstintedly, now tnc new
city dock would be immediately
used in an extensive manner, how
free mail delivery would be at once
installed, how taxes would be low
ered and the price of property large
ly enhanced, and how the place
wouiu latriy reek with milk and
noncy. utese and many more
things he had portrayed in vivid
colors, whether he believed they
would be obtained or not. Tired
out with voicing such
argument all duy, one evening
sat down upon a sofa ond fell
asleep. And sleeping he dreamed
In his vision it seemed tli.it he had
strolled into the council chamber of
tho city of Portland wh.'ii the body
was in session. Ah St. Johns had
rather recently been annexed tn
Portland, he decided to listen and
learn if any of the things he had
promised would be taken up and
noted upon. After a uist of busi
ucsb of more or less importance had
been taken up and disposed of, the
clerk stated that a petition for a
street light in the new addition of
St. Johns was prayed for. The
mayor asked the councilman from

just as I expected."
The dreaming aunexer stirred un
easily and finally awoke with the
impression that he had been sitting
upon something extremely uncom
fortable, and reaching down he
pulled from under him a lartre. int.
