Newspaper Duns.
MANY people tn

Many people think newspaper men
are persistent dunners. BY the way
of comparison let us suppose that q
farmer raises | 200 bushels OF wheat
a year, and sells this out to 1000
persons In all parts of the country q
great portion of them saying: 81
will hand you a dollar in short
time" The farmer don't want to
be small, and says all right. Soon
the 1000 bushels are gone, but he
has nothing to show for it, and he
then realizes that he has frittered
away his whole crop and its value to
him is due him in thousand little
driblets; consequently he is serious
ly injured in his business because
his debtors, each owing him one dol
lar treat, it as small matter aud
think it would not help much. Con
tinue this kind of business year in
and out as the publisher does, how
long would he stand it? A mo-
ment's thought will convince any
one that a publisher has cause for
persistent dunning.

|. With this issue the REPUBLICAN
starts in upon the ninth year of it's
lie, with every prospect of continue
ing to good old age. 1t has not
been easy work to maintain paper
in this county protesting the opin-
ions of the minority party but by
some pluck, great deal of hard
work and the help of kind friends of
both parties, we have the REpUBLI-
CAN on solid financial basis. We
had hoped before this time to en-
large our paper. and if our friends
will give us their active assistance in
increasing our subscription list we
hope at very early date to be able
to considerably enlarge the paper.
As it is the REPUBLICAN is the best
local newspaper published in the
county. We give all the local news
promptly and give the fullest and
best reports of matter of local in
terest, and it is this feature that has
made the REPUBLICAN household
visitor to- nearly every family in
Eastern Sullivan. Any one who
knows anything about newspaper
printing knows that u man who is at
once editor, compositor and publish
er has to earn his bread by the
sweat of his brow, and while
we do this for our own support yet
at the same time, by publishing our
paper we certainly not only help to
sustain political newspaper but at
! the same time help all classes OF
people. In the course of a year it
would be surprising to count up the
"free notices we insert. The births,
the deaths, the marriages, the church
notices, the society notices, the
calls and notices of all the political
parties, the notices of various TEN.
perance societies and other organiza
tions are regularly published in q
a country newspaper without money
and without price, All that we ask
in return is your good will and that
| where you can do us good turn
you will do it, thus enabling us te
give you better paper every year
We can promise our readers that ne
efforts will be spared on our part te
keep the REPUBLICAN up to g. higl
standard Of excellence,

THE FAIR.
Largest Crowd and Best Exhibition
Ever on the Ground.

The Twelfth (?) Annual Exhibi-
tion of the Sullivan County Agricul-
tural Society began on Wednesday
Oct. ], and ended on Friday Oct. Sd
and was the most successful of any
yet held. Spectators are Of course
necessity to the financial success
of fair but it was not alone due to
their presence in large numbers that
this years fair proved the best exhi-
bition yet held. The display IN all de-
partments possessed the highest
merit and when supplemented by
the special attractions formed a
show which is rarely seen and never
excelled for the price OF admission.
Active preparations for the fair
began several days before it was
formally opened. The attendance
for the first day while large consist
ed principally of exhibitors, superin-
tendents of departments, those
having stands and lunch counters,
etc. The weather was good through
out, the slight rain of Thursday not
interfering in the least with the sue
cess OF the Exhibition.
We find in the main building the
usual attractive exhibits The de-
partment of fancy work was excep-
tionaliy fine the entries Icing larger
than heretofore. The display of
fruits and vegetables was surprise
to everybody. Better apples, pears
potatoes, cabbage, beets, turnips and
corn could not have been seen at
any fair in the state. The display
of stores and hardware was excellent.
The furniture display was unusually
fine and shows that our people need
not go out of their own county to
provide themselves with everything
that comes under the head of neces-
sity or luxury, in this line. A table
made of 800 different pieces of wood,
inlaid, was very much admired. We
understand that Orville Rarto. of
Elkland twp. was the designer and
executor.
The live stock department was
full to overfowing with the choicest
breeds of horses, cattle, sheep etc.
We notice each year marked i'm
provement in this department over
the exhibit of the previous years.
This is as it should be and shows
that our farmers are giving proper
attention to the Improvement oi
their stock.
The fair grouds were In excellent
condition and certainly an inviting
spot. The liberality of the manage.
ment, the promptness with which
premiums have been paid, and the
enterprise displayed in the matter o.
special attractions have had much
to do with the prosperity of the AS
sociation, which this year scored
its greatest success.

OVERHEA ID BRIDGE DENIED.

The following is the finding of the
board of railroad commissioners on
the petition for a bridge over the
Passumpsic railroad near McLeod's
mill:
In the matter of the petition of o.
w. Orcutt and 19 others, citizens of
St. Johnsbury, setting forth that the
highway grade crossing over the
Connecticut and Passumpsic rivers
railroad in the village of ST. Johns
bury, known as the Mill crossing,"
is a dangerous and bad crossing, and
asking that the same be investigat ted
and an overhead crossing be con-
structed, the board of railroad COM
missioners has considered the case
solely in the light Of the require
ments of the public safety" with re-
gard to the present crossing, the
volume and kind of travel over it,
and the probable effect which the
change would have in inducing the
public travel over the other two
grade crossings to seek a safer line
for travel. 1t has also taken into
account the question of expense to
the town of st. Johnsbury and the
railroad company in making the
change sought, with a view to see if
the requirements for the safety of
St. Johnsbury Caledonian. [volume] (St. Johnsbury, Vt.) 1867-1919, 1890-10-16

the public are reasonably commen-
surate with the outlay which would
be necessitated by the change.
The board finds that this crossing
is blind and dangerous one for pub
lie travel; also that the only change
which At present appears feasible to
avoid the same is the one proposed
by the petitioners. But it is unable
to find that the public safety will be
so materially increased and conserved
by the change sought as to warrant
it in making an order, under the con-
ditiOns, necessities and extent of the
public travel over the present grade
crossing, for an overhead crossing
which would call for the large eX-
pense that the proposed work would
make necessary.
The board believes that the change
proposed would not prove to be one
affording that degree of additional
security to the public from accidents
that so expensive a change should
insure.
The dangerous proximity of teams
to the passing locomotives and
trains below them, when passing
along the highway grade of the pro-
posed road on the east side of the
railroad, and the dangerous proXim-
itv of the railroad from the foot of
the grade along Mill street to the
Paddock bridge, seem to the board
to open route on which to invite
the public to line of travel little, if
any, less dangerous than the avenues
now open. The prayer of the petit
ton is therefore denied.
