1t is seldom that a "traveling show
draws such crowd in Bradford az
; did the "Hanoverians" at Village Hall
Tuesday night. The receipts were $93
The family is talented one, unsteady
and with the Skaters and Hansons
make up one of the best companies we
ever saw on the road. The programme
was a good one, and everything was
enjoyed. "Ikey" Hanson seemed to
stake the bun," the audience taking
very kindly to him.

nut Burr" Carriers Burned Away
and other books have worldwide
reputation. His latest work, "The
Young Hornets" will be printed in the
Boston Daily Globe during the next

Postmaster General Villas has amend
ed his recent circular as to liquids in
the mails, SO that "Liquids, ardent,
vinous, spirituous or malt" are not
mailable. 1t was Republican Congress
man Dingley who secured this prompt
modification of circular that might
have made the United States mails the
agent of neutralizing the prohibitory
laws of Republican prohibitOry states.

We firmly believe that a large ma
jority of the republican voters of the
Second district desire the denomination
and election of Gen. Grout to Con-
gress this fall. While Col. Hooker
or Mr.. Dillingham; are worthy men
and would do credit to the district, the
time has hardly come, in our estima-
ton, to displace the present incumbent
in view of the practical, useful and
talented manner in which he is repre-
senting us at Washington just now.
Orange County will cast her vote prsc-
tically solid for Gen. Circuit & ~
coming convention. -
The following resolutions were
adopted by the Sons of Temperance to

resolutions we tender his afflicted family our most active
sympathy, especially do we with the community, pro-

whom the blow has fallen so heavily. =
Mr.. EDITOR: noticed in the OPIN-
ION of July 23d that D, X. Andross
had considerable to say in regard to a
certain frog pond near Mrs. Wood
wards residence. For several years
within the time he names the town of
Bradford has paid said Andross liber-
ally for taking charge of that same
frog-pond. If there was need of max
ing any change in said pond why did
not he make it. In regard to stocking
it with fish think the fathers of the
town would be in favor of it provided
said Andross would agree not to board
it, forbidding people fishing, hunting
and trapping, thereby obliging people
to go to Fairlee pond to enjoy the
sports. Query: Would it not be
better for some that want to find fault,
to look the situation over and see how
they stand and save lots of wind to
get. E. H. WELroN.
