Why NOT 2

Why should not Middlebury as well as
other towns in the State of greater or
less degree have Business Mems associ-
alton and obtain excursion rates on the
railroad? We already have a market
day. 1t is high time united effort was
made to bring trade here, or at least to
keep what we have and are fairly entitled
to. Rutland business men organized
some time ago. Their first move was to
obtain special rates on the railroads and
by this means induce people to go there.
In consequence of this move on their
part, every Tuesday sees an exodus from
the south part of this county thither and
the eXcursionists return home laden with
purchases. What they buy there of
course Middlebury doesn't sell. Times
have changed and business methods have
changed with them, till the old-time busi-
ness policy of 'each for himself and the
devil take the hindmost" is no longer the
best policy as between the business men
of place. Those in other towns COM
bine for mutual profit and protection, and
so must we of Middlebury or fall behind
the procession.

THE PUBLIC HEALTH.

In view of the prevalence of contagious
diseases at various points in the county
the regulations promulgated by the State
board of health, which we print in an
other column, ought to be read and heed
ed. The board was established at the
last session of the legislature for the
purpose of guarding against the spread
of these diseases and is given power to
enforce its DEGREES. The last section of
the act reads
This board shall have authority to
promulgate and enforce such regulations
for the better preservation of the public
health in contagious and epidemic dis
eases as they shall judge necessary; and
any person or persons or corporation
neglected or refusing, after having been
duly notified in writing, to comply with
the requirements of such regulations
shall, upon conviction thereof, pay to
the treasurer of the State fine of not
less than S25 nor more than 500, said
offence to be prosecuted for before any
court of competent jurisdiction in the
State.
Section 10 of the boards regulations
is, we understand, not infrequently viola
ted hereabouts; but if physicians and
selectmen do their duty as set forth in
sections l and 2 of the regulations, there
ought to be no trouble from this source.

that it ought not to be changed without
notice. Moreover, the constitution con-
tained no provision for amendment and
so he proposed the following, which was
adopted: '"The constitution may be
amended at any regular meeting by a
two-thirds vote of those present, provi-
ded, however, that notice of the proposed
amendment or amendments shall have
been given at previous regular meeting
and shall have been included in the no.
tice of the meeting at which the vote is
to be taken.'
Geo. Hammond gave notice that he
should at the next meeting move an
amendment changing the name.
On motion of Mr.. Slade the executive
committee were directed to arrange for a
hall and to provide for lighting and heat
ing it.
The next meeting of the club will be at
the town room Friday evening, the 18th
inst.

AN INTERESTING GATHERING.

The Daniel Wright family of New Ha-
ven hOnOred their fathers birthday by
gathering at the old parental homestead
on the 4th inst. The circle of six BROTH
ers has not been broken by death, though
their ages range from about 20 to 80
years. The old homestead is still Occu-
pied by our host, Mr.. 5. 5. Wright, and
his genial companion. Having buried
their own children, they yet find comfort
in cultivating outside fields where kindly
feelings and good wishes grow. They
have continued the annual gathering for
twenty-one years since the death of their
father. The fellow-feeling of Mr.. and
Mrs. Wright has thus far included few
from beyond the family circle, else your
correspondent would not know of these
things, to testify of them. Though hap
py social hours were many, the day
seemed short. After the guests had done
we'll towards unloading a table made
heavy with good things, Mr.. Hiram
Wright read an interesting biographical
sketch of the father, Mr.. Daniel Wright,
especially in what related to his contest
with the original farm, and the depriva-
tions which he suffered in common with
the early settlers of Vermont. 1t also ap-
peared that Mr.. Wright laid the founda-
ton of at least an honorable competency
by cutting the oaks from his farm to build
the ships which took part in the memoir
able battle on Lake Champlain in the
war of 1912. S.

Owing to the drafts made on the flocks
of the county for the Australian and
South American trade the records made
would not be credtable. Besides, there
was no money to pay the expenses. Mr..
Peet's motion was lost. Then the asso-
citation adjourned for dinner.
On reassembling President Bissell sug-
gested that $75 be raised by subscription
to pay up the Indebtedness of the asso-
citation. A paper was circulated and S46
raised; it was left for the treasurer to
solicit subscriptions enough to make up
the balance. 1t is certainly necessary
that this money should be raised and it is
hoped that all those interested in sheep
will respond literally. On motion of
Albert Chapman the old board of officers
were reelected, except r. ID. Clark of
Addison, who is not member but has
been on the board of directors the past
two years. L. W. Peet of Cornwall was
elected in his place. The officers as cleo
ted are: President, E. n. Bissell, East
Shoreham; vice presidents, G. II. Smith
of Addison, V. Rich of Richville; secre-
tary, G. A. Chapman of Middlebury /;
treasurer, F. c. Dyer of West Salisbury ;
directors, NJ. B. Williamson of Middle
bury, Chas. r. Witherell of Cornwall,
j. 7. Stickney of Shoreham, H. c. Bur-
well and c. p. Crane of Bridport, H. E.
Taylor of West Cornwall, L. w. Peet of
Cornwall.
Col. F. H. harrington of Brandon
moved that the officers take steps towards
the incorporation of the association, and
the motion was carried unanimously.
This would place the power in the hands
of the treasurer to collect all annual
dues by course of law if necessary.
The meeting then adjourned.
Immediately after adjournment a meet
ing of the executive board was held and
that body voted to instruct the secretary
to inquire into the legality and expense
of incorporation and to report at an ad.

THE ABE LINCOLN REPUBLICAN CLUE

THE ABE LINCOLN REPUBLICAN CLUB.
The Abe Lincoln Republican club of
Middlebury held its second meeting at
the town room on Thursday evening, Feb.
2, with President c. M. Wilds in the chair
and a large representation of the Repub-
licans of the town present The report
of the committee to nominate an execu-
tive committee was heard, accepted and
adopted, and those named by it declared

John A. Caldwell of New Haven, D. H.

sented his report, which was accepted.
The bylaws as finally agreed upon are

by paying one dollar and signing the consti-
tuition.

to at any regular meeting when not less than
fifteen members are present, by vote of a
majority.
The question of the expediency of re-
quiring pledge from those who wished
to become members, also the amount of
the membership fee, gave rise to consider
able debate, which was participated in by
Jas. M. Slade, Esq, Geo. McCue, Geo.
Hammond, Col. Tracy, President Wilds
and others.
The name of the club did not suit some
of the members. A motion to change it
to "'The Republican Club of Middlebury"
was lost.
Judge Knapp took the ground that the
name was part of the constitution and

HENRY GEORGE tells an interviewer
that "there is little doubt that Mr.. Cleve-
land will be the Democratic nominee in
the campaign of next fall. He has set
his face clearly in the direction of free
trade. The length or number of the steps
is not of so much importance as that a
step has been taken. President Cleve-
land is even now in advance of his party
and has made the issue. 1t cannot be
lodged or evaded. / am with the admin
istration and opposed to third-party
presidential candidate so long as the ad-
ministration and the Democratic party
tend toward freedom" The labor party
will, Mr.. George thinks, have State can
ddates next fall, but he hopes "that no
attempt will be made toward abortive po-
litical action that will endanger the sue
cess of the free-trade movement" He
also believes that president Cleveland
is fair more radical than his party or ev-
en- his message, and that he will at the
Opportune moment take stride that will
make his last advance look Insignificant"

The Women's Silk Culture association,
which has its headquarters at Philadel-
phia, has made its annual report to the
agricultural department. The depart
ment, according to a Washington dis
patch, feels very much encouraged by
the reports received from all parts of the
United States, and predicts that in few
years the silk industry will be leading
one in many States. This fever once
ragged in Vermont, we believe; and doubt
less older citizens could give the depart
ment points that would tend to decrease
its happiness over the outlook.
