A noteworthy incident in the cam
paign in Vermont is Bethel jeweler
getting mad at stranger. and attempt-
ing to drive him from his shop with the
help of u weapon supposed to be horse
pstol but the stranger didn't scare
worth cent, and Jcwcler Edison only
succeeded in making himself the laugh
ing stock of tho town. 1t seems that
the stranger, who is registered at Viii
sons Hotel as Chas. A. Reese Of
Greenfield, Mass, had mistaken Ed
sons jewelry store for ncwsroom,
and inquired for the Boston Herald,
whereupon Edison began TO abuse that
most excellent newspaper, and told
Reese to read the Journal if be de-
sired to learn the truth. Failing to
convince him that the Journal was the
most reliable Of the two papers, he lost
his temper and ordered him from his
shop with the aforementioned result,
The affair has created no little COM
ment in Bethel, and Republicans and
Democrats alike condemn Edson's ac-
ton in the matter.
