a little fixin', but this will come now that it is incor
porated and municipal management takes hold of
affairs. But what we wish to call attention to more
particularly is the backing Houlton has and the scope
of country back of it that depends upon it for its
supplies. The settlers back of it arc mostly farmers,
some fifteen or more miles, and are of the sturdy

milliner and dress maker, sash and door factory,
shingle mill, 'creamery, and, most of all, better depot
facilities, so that the traveling public can enjoy a
waiting room. Just why a corporation such as the
Northern Pacific, with its general reputation of being
liberal in giving first-class facilities to travel, is so la
