THE MIDOLEBURY RALLY.

The committee of arrangements for the
rally of Republicans in Middlebury-Col.
Fletcher and Messrs. Hammond and
Slade-have been hard at work the past
week. 1t has been decided TO hold the
gathering on Monday, the 9th inst. The
speakers thus far secured are Hon.
George NJ. Dewey of Michigan and Hon.
Albert Griffin of Kansas. The former is
an excellent speaker. and so for that
matter is Mr.. Griffin. who has a national
Republican national committee. Efforts
are making TO obtain at least one more
first-class speaker. Mr.. Markham. the
noted campaign singer, will also be here.
Prominent men of the party in the State,
such as Gov. Ormsbee and eX-Gov.
Proctor and others. have been invited to
attend. The clubs in the other towns OF
the county give assurances that they will
turn out in force and the prospect is that
we shall have the biggest demonstrate
of the sort ever held in Middlebury. The
plan now is to have a parade in the fore
noon and to have the speaking in the
afternoon, beginning promptly at ]
o'clock. However, the details of the
arrangements are not as yet fully tiXeC
upon. Next week we shall be able tC
tell all about it.
The railroad will give half-fare rate,
from Rutland and Burlington and inter
mediate stations, and also from station;
on the Addison road, on the day of th'
rally.

A NEW PASSENGER STATION AssuRsb

Hon. j. Gregory Smith, president:
John w. Hobart, general manager: j. NJ.
Foss, superintendent, of the Central Ver-
mont railroad and Col. Childs, Gov.
Smiths private secretary. came here yes
terday morning by special car to see
about putting in a new passenger station
at this place. They were met at the
freight depot by a large delegation of the
prominent men of the village and talked
over with them the matters of location,
etc. The new station will be located on
the company's premises near the freight
station, but whether east or west of the
w could learn, entirely settled. A part
of the officials thought it should 60 on
the sad-iron shaped lot just south of Mr..
Towards house, while others were of the
opinion that it should stand on the east
side of the tracks. Both situations have
friends. but there is no apparent DISPOSE
ton on the part of the townspeeple to
quarrel with the railroad folks about the
location. nat we want Is a new sta
ton. Gov. Smith before boarding his
car proposed that the citizens meet and
choose three of their number, to whom
he would send passes in order that they
might go to Shelburn and South Royal
ton. where new stations are in course OF
erection. and be prepared TO confer with
the railroad officials as to the style of
station to be erected here. The meeting
was held on the spot, Hon. l.. ID. Ell
dredge presiding, and Messrs. Geo. Ham
mond. l.. d. Eldredge and g. ;. Vain
wright were chosen a. the committee.
Mr.. Hobart said the foundation of the
building would be put in this fall aud the
work on the s-uperstructure prosecuted
during tho winter, so that the building
would be ready for occupancy in the
spring.
The railroad officials were stirred NJ
to act in the matter by a letter written
Gov. Smith by Mr.. Geo. Hammond last
spring, in which he urged the need of a
new station.

Button Up Your overcoat.

"Of course. men should keep their
evercoats buttoned up to the top button
at all times" remarked leading tailor.
"Not only for sanitary reasons, but be-
cause it is the proper caper. Any num-
Der of young men believe it looks swell
to turn up their overcoat collars at the
neck, and allow the overcoat to fly open
in front. They are wrong. A man with
an open overcoat has slouchy air, par
ticularly when the collar is tipped up in
the back. What protection does the
back OF the neck require? If you will
look across the street there at the passing
crowd and see how much better the men
with closely buttoped overcoats look
you'll hear me out, I'm sure. think it
would be good idea for some newspaper
to analyze the brains of these open-over-
coated and tippedup collar men, instead
Of picking cigarettes to pieces. And, by
the way, you will notice that almost
every one of these people smoke cigar
cites, too"
