District judge. and. for the past 14 years. as Maines Junior Senator. George Mitchell devoted himself to government because he believed in government. and it is appropriate today that we name the seat of our Federal Government in his hometown in his honor. George Mitchells story is well known in Waterville. Maine. His mother was a firstgeneration Lebanese immigrant. his father. an orphan. was a janitor at Colby College. They instilled strong values in their son. George Mitchell dedicated himself to learning. to knowledge and justice. and throughout his youth he surpassed the arbitrary ceilings our society so often builds.
