The PEOPLE of Vermont have won a
magnificent victory over the mongrcl
combination of Smilh-Atkins republic
cans and democrats and over all man
ncr of machine politics and corrupt
methods. The ring was smashed and
the trading, wirc-pulling, caucus-pacN-
ing crowd (Lcvi Fuller cXccptcd re-
cciyCd their just deserts. The result is
just what the SITTER always said it
would be if the people would only
wake up and take the management of
their own business into their own
hands. They did wake up, and the
Free Pass brigade got left, as they al
ways will under like circumstances.
They only thrive willie the people sleep.
The victory is complete and oycrWhcl-
ming in every particular. The re-ccc-
ton Of MIR. Edmunds win hardly be
contested, and Gov. Smith win now
ask i'll innocent surprise what all this
row has been about, and declare that
he has never even so much as thought
of being candidate, though lie bought
up and subsidized considerable por-
ton of the newspapers all the same.
But the victory is as complete on the
other issues as on the scnatorslIip. The
people demand with almost united
voice an efficient railroad comlni>s ion
and short haul law, and a positive
prohibition Of the acceptance of free
passes by all officers of the state gov
crnmcnt whose official action may
have to do with railroad interests; and
this includes all the executive and judi
cial officers and all members of the leg
islatiyc assembly. These four things
the PEOPLE want and will have.
1st. The reelection Of Senator Ed
munds.
End. An efficient railroad commits
sion law, and honest, capable, indie
pendent commissioners.
Sd. a good short haul law.
4th. The abolition of the free pass
abuse and abomination and with it the
suppression of political bossism.
Let there be no sham work in regard
to any of these issues. The people
have won the fight, now let them look
sharply after their representatives and
see to it that they are not cheated out
Of the full fruits of their victory.
Smith and his manipulators will be on
hand as usual, and every Establishment
viii be used, including free passes, and
money too, no doubt, to lead the unwa-
ry astray. Let us have no fooling,
senator's and representatives. Give us
what the election means squarely and
honestly. The eyes of the people arc
on YOU.

1t has been before the public for nearly
forty years, and has constantly grown
in popular favor, both at home and
abroad, until there is hardly place in the
civilized world where it has not n host OF
friends, made so by its marvellous cures.
1t has been used in, and approved by,
at least 100000 families in the United
States, and I ,000, 900 throughout The world.
Women have especial reasons for COM
mending it.
1t has proven its potency in curing
obstinate, deeply-seated, and long-stand-
ing diseases caused by. vitiation of the
blood. 1t must not, however, be en-
pected and is not claimed that single
bottle will cure such cases; but patients
should persevere in the use of this remedy
until radical cure is effected.
1t Is the only blood-purifer that has won
and retained the confidence of the people
of all tropical countries, where such medi-
cines are much required.
1t is the only medicine of its class that
sailors, as a rule, have any faith in and
they are right.

Advantages that AYERS SARSAPARIlLA
Possesses over all Others.

1t is composed of the most eilicacious
Alternative, diuretic, and tonic drugs known
in pharmacy, among which are the
genuine Honduras Sarsaparilla, Yellow
Dock, Stillmgia, and the Iodides of Potas-
SUM and Iron.
1t is u highly concentrated medicine,
scientifically and honestly compounded so
us to secure TO it the highest degree of
activity and perfect uniformity.
1t has received the hearty endorsement
of the leading men in the medical profess
sion, who recognize it as standard phar-
maceutcal preparation, and prescribe it
in their practice.
1t contains no poisonous minerals or
other dangerous drugs, the use of which
for temporary effect in the many crude
and cheap mixtures sold as alternatives,
produces effects on the system often worse
than the diseases they are offered to cure.
1t costs no more than any other, but
would still be the cheapest blood-purify-
ing medicine in the world, even were its
price three times greater, since 1t is the
only one that does "real, lasting good"

Helping the Widow.

Since the death of Charles Becke,
the travel ng salesman for the Heide-
man-BenOit Saddlery company, of St.
Louis, from the effects of being run
over in the railroad yards at Nevada,
the travelling statesmen have started a
subscription for the widow and family.
The plan adopted is to place the sub
scription papers in the prominent
hotels throughout the country and
travelling men are invited to sub
scribe A gentleman who has trav-
eled recently through Kansas and
Missouri told reporter for the BAzoo,
yesterday, that the scheme was work.
ing very satisfactorily, and he was of
the opinion that a very comfortable
sum would be realized. In this city
subscription papers have been placed
in the hotels Kaiser and Sicher. At
the Kaiser S44 rave been subscribed,
and at Sicher's $50. The object is a
worthy one, as it is known that the
widow and children are in an almost
destitute condition.

Another Crime Unearthed.

Jake Sitton, travelling solicitor for

prompt in the settlement of bills, was
somewhat amazed yesterday when
presented with a piece of paper which
stated that he was indebted to a prom
inent coal dealer of this city to the
tune of the price of halfton of coal,
delivered January 9Th last. Jake de-
MED being indebted to the firm, and
investigation proved that man living
in the western part of the city had
ordered the coal delivered at his resi-
dence and charged to the ex-scribe.
As yet legal proceedings have not
been instituted, but the swindler may
yet be called upon to answer for the
crime.

A DESERTED WIFE.
She is Left to Hustle With Five
Little Children.

A woman, claiming to hail from
Peoria, His, drove up TO the mayors
establishment in East Sedalia yester-
day in a covered wagon, drawn by a
lean mule and lame horse and applied
for assistance. She had FIVE small
children who were thinly clad, and
from the pitiful expression on their
countenances it was evident they had
had nothing to eat for some time,
which factwas made known to his honor
by the unfortunate mother. She stated
that they left Peoria for Kansas,
where her aged and destitute father
now lies sick, and that Der husband
deserted her when they reached Boon
vile. The woman was afflicted with
erysipelas, and wss prescribed for by
a physician in East Sedalia. The
mayor gave the family a quantity of
provisions and small amount of
money, after which they resumed their
journey in better spirits.

and the young man having charge of
the Office, thinking she wished to
make a donation, inquired as to her
mission. She seemed reluctant and
avoided the question, but. afterwards,
becoming desperate, informed the
young man that she was without q
particle of food in the house and had
come for assistance. The young man
was astounded. He replied that the

Death Of Master Charles AlcOrn
at the University.

For the first time in the history of
the Sedalia university death entered
its doors early yesterday morning, the
victim being Charlie Alcorn, one of
the brightest students there.

Everything being favorable he
thought to enjoy himself skating for
a time, but, unfortunately, Overheated
himself. He did not experience any
immediate effects Of this,
and returned to his studies Sunday
evening. The next day he was taken
sick with infammatory rheumatism,
superinduced by the severe cold he
he had contracted in his sport. He
rapidly grew worse and his father
and a physician were sent for. Every
thing possible was done to alleviate
the young mans suffering. which was
of a most excruciating nature,
but without avail. and death
must have proven a welcome visitor
when it relieved him on yesterday
morning.
The deceased was only little past
fifteen years of age and had been 80
tending the university since last Oc!o-
Der. Yesterday the body was re-
moved to the residence of his uncle,
three miles east of the city, from
which place the funeral will take place
this morning, the services being con-
Quoted by Rev. Mr.. Porter. Prior to
the removal of the body from the
university short service was held,
DR.. Edmonson conducting il. The
students attended in body. The
young students lac companions, as a
token of respect and love, decorated
the coffin with beautiful wreath of
flowers.

The Soup House Thrown Open
to the Public Yesterday. .

At 10 o'clock yesterday forenoon
the city's soup house was formally
opened, with Officer Trip in charge.
Two tables. one for white and the
other for colored people, were placed
in position in the centre of the old
meat market, in the city hall, and all
who applied were kindly cared for.
While the tables were not loaded
down with china and silverware, they
contained a couple of dozen tin plates,
spoons, knives and forks, and each
applicant was furnished with all the
oyster or vegetable soup he or she
