Poor GiIlIla.

We know Of several people in this part of
the state who are waiting patiently to have
the logic of the position of Editor Warren
Gibbs of the st. Adams Messenger on the
Edmunds question explained to them-if it
can be explained. All through the season
Mr.. Gibbs has posed as virulent anti-Ed-
munds man, and has been counted leader of
the opposition; but he was member of the
Franklin county Republican convention last
week, which adopted strong Edmunds reso-
luton, and himself voted for the resolution
amid a round of derisive laughter. Now ne
says in his paper that he is still "unalterably
opposed to the Senator's II election" but that
the county ticket, which purports to be an
Edmunds ticket, should be supported, and
that while yielding cheerful support to the
unity of the party" he does not yield his
convictions" We don't know whether Mr.
Gibbs meant TO stab Mr.. Edmunds under the
fifth rib by his vote in the convention, or
whether he is now trying to face both ways
at once, or whether he is so confused by lack
of home support and sympathy in his anti
Edmunds crusade, outside the railroad infu-
ence, that he doesn't know himself what he
means to say. Perhaps we shall get an e1.

DID THEY MEAN ROBBERY2

TWO FELLOWS WHOM OFFICER COOLIDGE CAUGHT
TRYING TO BREAK INTO THE TOWN HALL
WEDNESDAY NIGHT
To add variety to the exoitements Of the
week Night Police Coolidge discovered two
men prowling about the town hall building
wednesday night in very suspicious way
He was going up the street at quarter Of two
O'Clock when he heard a noise which appear.
ed TO be on the north side OF the building
but whether inside or outside he could not
tell. He went up the steps to the front door
to listen aud in doing so made a noise which
alarmed the men, who proved TO be on the
outside and two in number. They started on
run down the bank, followed by Coolidge,
who went far enough to see them start up
the railroad track. Whether they were try.
ing to force the basement door or 10 get into
the window opening which has been cut
above he could not tell. just an hour later
two men drove into the street from the north
aud around into Elliot street and back As
they started up Main street they said some
thing about the hotels being closed, when
Coolidge told them that he would get them
into hotel II they wished. "Oh no, they
answered, I'VE want some lager beer, that is
all, and drove OF up the street whence th ey
came. The officer believes they we're the
same men whom he chased down the bank
Whether II was the post office valuables or
the liquor agency drinkables that they were
longing for in their attempted raid on the
town hall, nobody is able TO say.

The extension Of the special delivery sys-
tenn which takes place on the first Of Octo-
Der, under an act OF Congress passed just be-
fore the adjournment, applies the system to
every post office in the country and to every
form OF pailable matter. The only limita-
tions relate to the hours of delivery, which
are between seven in the morning and seven
in the evening, and to the distance Of com
pulsory delivery, which is placed at one mile
from the office, though postmasters are recon-
mended TO deliver at greater distances II pos
sble. A careful plan Of registration and re-
ceipt-showing the time when special deliv-
cry parcels are received and the time when
they are delvered-wil serve to show the g.
deity and promptness with which the post
masters perform their new duties. The sue
cess Of the special delivery system, so far as
tried, has hardly been such as to demonstrate
a strong public demand for the convenience,
There has been diminution, rather than ar
increase, in the use made Of it, in the citiet
and large towns to which the service has beer
confined, but this new move means an effor
to popularize it in very broad way, and !
will be a great benefit in many instances to b.
sure of the immediate delivery of letters sen
to the smaller post offices. How well thu
third and fourth class postmssters will lik
the idea Of going mile on (supposed) deaf
run through mud, rain or snow drifts for tn
munncent sum Of eight cents time is quit

Another illustration of the need of a rail
road commission has come in quick and start
ling succession after the accident to the White
Mountain train on Friday, Aug. G. A disas-
ter like that to the narrow gauge train on
Wednesday afternoon could not have happen
ed without some fault somewhere in the ma
ierial of the bridge, in the manner of con-
struotion, in the oversight of the structure,
or in the amount of strain or oversirain to
which It has been subjected. The fault may
not have been one for which any one can be
held responsible-the accident may have hap
pened through an undiscoverable flaw in the
material-but in any case the public have a
right to have all possible facts brought out.
They have a right to them as a matter of
legitimate information, but still more than
this they have a right to them for their pro.
lection from other similar dangers in the fu-
ture. A railroad commission would bring out
these facts speedily and impartially. The
people would feel that their rights had found
due acknow' edgment in its action and the
railroad company would be saved from posi-
BILE imputation of negligence or of an attempt
TO conceal the real facts. Elect representa-
tives on the 9TH of September who will vote
for and work for an efficient railroad commits

The Tonn nenre.en,n,iYs.-

This year is one of all others when YER
mont Republicans, who really desire the sue
cess of their party, should be on their guard
against factional quarrels. The Republicans
of every town owe it not only to themselves
and their party, but to their country, to sink
all personal issues in a resolute determination
to secure the election of thoroughly reliable
representative men to the legislature. There
are abundant indications that, in towns where
the Republican majority is narrow, fractional
feeling will be taken advantage of if it exists,
to make break in the party and secure the
election of Democrats to the legislature in
the interest of the opposition to Mr. Edmunds.
No Republican who is Republican will
countenance any movement or any quarrel
which can lead to such result. Representa-.
tives to the legislature this year should be
pronounced and outspoken supporters Of
Mr. Edmunds they should intelligently ia.
vor railroad supervision that shall really su.
pervise the operations of the railroads in the
interests of the people, and they should be
men who will not accept anybodys free pass
Make a note of these three points and see
that your candidate stands squarely on them
all
