DEAR FREEMAN The mercury tonight is
below zero, and Jack Frost is having things
pretty much his own way. 1 suppose in
Vermont if the weather was only cold enough
to bring the mercury down to zero, no Yer
mOnter would think it worth while to
chronicle the fact but here, such weather
being quite rare, it deserves special notice
don't know as l could explain it philosoph-
ically, but | can vouch for the fact that cold
weather A" takes hold of person here in
Kansas much more than the same degree of
cold does person in Vermont ! know |
have worked in the woods there when the
mercury was down among the minus num-
bers and never thought of being uncomfort-
able, but, on the contrary, rather enjoyed it,
while here, when such weather comes, we
den up and wait till the snap is over. T

eter tells the same story the world over.

At large meeting of the citizens of Rut-
land. Varmont, a few days ago, held to
consider the liquor excitement, the following
resolution was introduced and warmly sup
ported: Resolved, That as the hotel
keepers closed their hotels of their own
accord-while we know the value of a good
hotel to our town, the reputation and at
traction it gives it-much as we desire It,
and gladly as we would hail their reoPening
yet we cannot by any invitation OF ours
as lovers of our race, as question between
simple right or of open wrong-ask them
to undo what they have done by any com
promise between this right and this wrong
so that if opened at all, they must be
opened as freely as they were shut, with the
sentiment of the wholesome effect of the
prohibitory law, not only still cherished, but
deepened and strengthened by the experience
of the past week.

calls neutral, during several great wars. But
there is hardly a country OF Christendom
that is more affected by war, excepting
the combatlnt themselves. The present
war 10 Eur ps has cut of great de Al of Eng
lands wine supplies, AMI pinched her in
butter and eggs. Last year one third Of
England's imp 'rted butter, and the best
quality, lue from France, while Of eggs the
export was over million daily. y war
