In view of the fact that there have

to the effect that I mlnlit not be really
displeased if aeaaU file No. I waa passed,
permit me to reiterate my poaltlon with
reference to anneiation. . I alwaya have
been and now am absolutely oppoaed to
annexation without a majority vote ct
each municipality effected by the me

dent number of member of the nous
who are firm believsre In government by
the consent of the governed to Inaure tha
drfeat of aeoate file No. X or any othor
rpeaaur that deprive tha clllsens of any
community of their right to Belt-government.
It ha been said that In the paat

election under the upervllon of our
pieacnt election comnilaaloner and con
trolled by our preient election lawa no
t-cb charge would b poaalbl and an
absolutely lair expreaalon of tha wlahee
of the voter would be aaaured. That ,1a

But later in the year, when American

"About 8 o'clock Friday morning
a Oer man submarine torpedoed the
steamer Indian City of Biddeford
within alght of Hughtown, on St.
Ury's island. The submarine re
mained In the vicinity about an hour
and was an object of keen inerest to
the Islanders, who watched develop
ments as the crew of the steamer
rowed their boats toward the shore
Watch Battle.
"Immediately the attack became
known two patrol boat, which were In
the roadstead, put to aea and hastened
in the direction of the submarine, on
which they opened fire. The submarine
waa then about ten mile from ehore and
the miniature battle was keenly followed
by the sightseers crowding the shore.
"When th patrol boat approached the
submarine the tatter suddenly submerged
Itself, but reappeared a little later about
two mile further west. The patrol boat
topped to pick up th crew of th In
dian City and then gav chase to th
submarine, but the pursuer easily were
distanced.
"After evading the patrol boat the
submarine sighted th ateamer Head
land of Hartlepool and went In pursuit
of the ahlp. The chase was brief, th
German easily overtaking th steamer
even mile outh of St. Agnea' island.
Both vessel were en to be constantly
turning and maneuvering aa a result of
the merchantman' effort to escape de
struction. Crew Pa 11a Away.
"Finally th ateamer (topped and a
larga quantity of ateara wa seen eaeap
Ing from it safety valve. Than It waa
noticed that preparation were being
made to leav th ateamer and a few
minute later the crew wa observed In
a lifeboat pulling away.
'.'At 10:40 o'clock la th morning
through the telescope I caw an upward
ruah of black amoke, apparently th re
ult of th explosion of a torpedo. Th
Headland evidently waa struck mid
ships for It began to aettl down by th
stern. Th submarine went off to th
westward and apparently waa purtulng
a third steamer when It disappeared from
view. n
"The crew of th Indian City, number,
lng thirty-seven, and the twenty-three
men from the Headland were landed at
St. Mary toland at 2 o'clock In tha
afternoon. Both the steamer were afloat
rrway afternoon. Attempt to salvage
them are proceeding and It I hoped that
It will be poaalbl to bring them to port"
