WE REPORT PROGRESS.

With this issue of THE TIMES we an
noupce an increase in size amounting to
one quarter of the former space of the
paper. This change is the outcome
of careful thought and study as
to what THE TIMES should be-, what
ground it should cover, aud what were
it's weaker points as a Vermont news
paper at the date of our purchase last
December. Taking possession at the
busy time of the year, we were at first
unable to do more than keep up with the
new business demands of each week, but
the need of a larger and better paper has
been seen by us from the first, and our
spare time for the past few months has
been given to plans for the result seen in
this number.
The usual change in the size of news
papers is effected by one of two methods.
Either the size of page is reduced and
the number increased, or the size is in
creased and the number reduced. We
have ventured to depart from these for
mulas, and taken perhaps bold step for
country journal. Retaining THE
TIMES form as to size of pages, which
size we believe to be The best, bar n6thisags'
we have simply introduced machinery
which makes possible the expeditions
handling of any number of extra pages,
Until further notice, the regular edition
of THE TIMES will consist of ten pages !;
when matter presses or there is occasion
we shall furnish twelve, and if we feel
like it, sixteen.
We have neither disposition nor edi-
torial space to tell what we "are going
to do.' We are not built that way.
Neither have we striven for effect by
prior announcement or editorial flourish
of trumpets. In word, accepting the
obligation to furnish our patrons full re-
turn for value received, we have met the
increasing favor of reading public by
substantial evidence of our good faith in
the premises. We believe and base our
belief on the frequent expression of
others, that THE TIMES is ''better than
ever BEFORE" but there is still attainment
ahead, and in our own time and way we
purpose meeting each need as it occurs.
Our prospectus on the fourth page out
lines the work and merit of our plan
more fully than we are here permitted,
and we only ask just criticism from all.

THERE SHOULD BE REMEDY.

The Vermont Tribune calls attention
to matter which has long puzzled seri-
GUS men, in consideration of the ire
parable injury often done to innocent
men in being arrested and tried for
crime. The Tribune cites the case of
Lyman G. Clark, who has just been ac-
quilted of murder, as given in our court
report last week. The question is
knotty one, and has, as yet, been solved
nowhere. Crime is always hidden, and
the law must generally take circum-
stance as its only guide; otherwise there
would be no prosecution. 1t can not be
pleasant experience to stand as defend
ant in murder trial, but when a mans
character comes to his aid, as it did in
Clark's case, and when as in that case he
is so carefully and fairly tried, and ac-
quilted, it is monstrous that the slight
est onus of such an accidental connection
should afterward cling to the victim of
circumstance. But to us there seems to
rest upon the state duty in the premis-
es. The moral or social side of the mat
ter it may not contemplate, but it can
and should make good financial loss.
When man has been arrested upon sus-
plcion of some crime; has been impris-
oned, tried and found innocent; has been
deprived of his occupation and his fami-
ly of their support, and all upon chance,
unless he is proven guilty the state
should indemnify him against monetary
loss or damage. More it cannot do, but
that it should do promptly.

ABOUT THAT DEPOT.

We were informed yesterday by gen.
tleman whose word is acceptable that in
a recent conversation with railroad
authority, the question was asked why,
instead of repairing the old structure, a
new one, more fitting to the needs of the
location, could not be built. The reply
was, 4" We have never been asked to, and
you never heard of a new depot being
built unless there was demand for it. !"
The last part of the statement was true
enough, and possibly the first if the par
ty questioned has spent the last five
years in Europe, but that any man famil-
lar with the conditions and in touch with
subordinate officials who very well know
the feeling on the matter, should take
refuge behind such a statement seems in
credible.
If this is the true deficiency it can
readily be made good, and if prompt
action can secure for us modern depot,
then there should be prompt action and
very formal and proper petition drawn,
circulated and forwarded decently and
in order. 1t cannot be yelled from
even an unwilling eye that this junction
of four roads, with transfer and carry
ing passenger volume of no small impor-
tance, and with freight traffic heavily
in excess of any point north of Boston,
has the most wre ched accommoda tions.
THE TINES has on several occasions
noted this but we are quite willing to re-
iterate for general information.
We have at this depot, ladies' wait
ing room which is small, malodorous and
filthy, gentleman's room which is COM
mon to travellers, loafers and train men.

Hampton Stewart of Pownal was
kicked on the head and chest by mule
the other day, and received injuries that
caused his death in a few hours.
Frank Hunt of Sheffield fell from the
roof of building Saturday noon, broke
his skull and died within an hour. He
was unmarried and 25 years old.
William Alexander of Bridgewater,
was caught by set screw on wheel in
Howard's mills, revolving at rate of
20OO minute. He grabbed bench
thereby saving his life. His trousers
were stripped into shreds.
Last March H. D. Dunbar of North
Hartland started for Chilli, s. A., to set
up in that country some engines for the
Baldwin Locomotive works, but on ac-
count of hostilities succeeded in getting
only as far as Peru, and has now re-
turned to wait until the war is over.
Stephen Burroughs, one of the oldest
and best known farmers of Waltham,
dropped dead Tuesday of heart failure.
He was busy at work in the afternoon
Tuesday, and had driven his horse from
the field to the barn, when he fell and
instantly died in front of his barn.
w. T. Stoddard, aged S4 years, one of
the oldest inhabitants of Waitsfield, met
with fatal accident Wednesday, June
II. He mistook the door leading into
the cellar for the one leading into the
sitting room, and fell the whole length
of the stairs, striking his head on the
chimney at the foot of the stairs, break
ing his neck, which fact was not discov-
cred until after his death the next day at
noon. He did not regain consciousness
after the fall and did not seem to realize
his suffering. Mr.. Stoddard had been a
lifelong resident of the town and at one
time did quite an extensive business in
tanning hides.
Another Franklin county industry will
soon be booming and employing large
number of hands. The old neglected

is of rich quality and very plentiful.

money in getting the property into

Officers were attracted to the house of
Owen Farrelly, prominent citizen Of
Salem, Wednesday evening June "a, by
noises proceeding therefrom, and found
Mrs. Farrelly lying on the floor covered
with blood and bruises, having one leg,
one rib and her jaw bone broken and
covered with bruises and severe cuts.
Her husband, who had committed the
deed, lay on the lounge in drunken
stupor. The injured woman was con-
veyed to the house of relative, while
Farrelly has been locked up to await
the results of her injuries. He has been
a prominent merchant of Salem for many
years, and is well known in western Yer
mont.

alone would cause stranger to detest

The most disgusting feature of city

to prize fighters. The life of these
brutes comes solely from the free adver-

there would be no prize fighting.
"Jones, who pays the freight - has a
dwindling boom on his hands, the result
of the disclosure of the fact that his con-
tributions to the Democratic campaign
fund barely reached $1,000. That sum
won't begin to pay the freight bills of the
man who ''gets there.''
The cry comes from the cities of an
army of unemployed men who cannot
find work. There is demand all over
New England to-day for farm laborers.
Seemingly this inconsistency indicates a
falseness of the city rumor, or laziness
and lack of enterprise on the part of idle
men.

were charged with violation of the pro-

Over on the New Hampshire side
there are vague rumors of a deal or
trade in the last legislature concerning
the proposed new railroad, or extension
from North Weare to Henniker There
was something said about similar ex-
tension from Suncook to CANDIDA The
Concord & Claremont was to build the
first and the Boston & Maine the last.
But by some secret deal, it is claimed
that the companies will fight each other
just enough to make the people think
they mean business, while there is a
secret understanding that nothing will
be done. Whether this be true or not it
is certainly true that as yet nothing has
been done by either company in the way
of extension or getting ready for it.
Meanwhile the people wonder when they
are to receive the benefits usually said to
attend the construction of railways
Anent European retaliation along tariff
lines, it should not be forgotten that the
sentiment of Europe has always been an

because they were better and cheaper
than any other country could furnish.
and for the same reason they will con-
tinue to be purchased over there, and
America need have no fear of losing
these markets until India and Russia can

Those who demand "cheap money and
plenty of it" should study the situation

months since, that government issued
$26O,OOO,0 900 of unsecured paper money
and it has already shrunk so per cent in
value. Every dollar paid a workingman
for his toll has an actual purchasing
value of only 20 cents. That is the way
