SHORT SPEECHES AT VARIOUS POINTS

RUTLAND, VT, Aug. 27.-The first stop
of the Presidential train after leaving st.
Johnsburg was at Wells River, where ex-
Governor Farnham boarded the train. The
President addressed the people for five
minutes in the rain. The train arrived at
White River Junction at 1915 o'clock, and
the Presidents car was taken out of the
train and switched to the fair grounds.
In his brief speech there the President
said: 81 understood that in the programme
Secretary Proctor had arranged for day of
pleasure here at this horse fair, and that a
more attractive entertainment was to be
provided for you and for me than speech
making am not well up in the rules of
the track, but suppose on morning like
this some allowance will be made for a
heavy track; and If horses are entitled to it
1 think may claim an allowance myself.
Laughter]. Therefore, L have only to
thank you for the friendliness of your reeep-
tion and to express my interest in this great
industry which is represented here-the
breeding of horses"

A stop was made at Charlestown, n. H.
where the President spoke briefly in praise
of New England character. When the train
arrived at Bellows Falls the rain was pour
ing in torrents. Instead of making an ad-
dress from the car the President was taken
to the Opera House, where, being intro
duced, he said:
THE VALUE OF MANUFACTURES.
81 greatly appreciate the value and i'm
portance of these manufacturing centers,
which are now, fortunately for us, not
characteristic of New England alone, but
are found west of the Ohio the Mississippi
and the Missouri. am one of those who
believe that in diversif1cation of pursuits
we make the most rapid increase in wealth
and attain the best social relations and de-
velopment.
81 would not introduce politics. 1 do not
intend to cross any lines of division, but
think we all agree, though we may differ as
to the means by which it is to be done, that
the nearer together the producer and con-
sumner can be brought the less waste there Is
in transportation and the greater the
wealth. [Applause.1 We have come to a
time in our development rs a nation, when
believe that interest on money is low
enough for us to turn some of our accumu-
lated capital from the railways into steam
ship transportation on the sea; that the time
has come when we shall recover n full par
ticipation in the carrying trade of the
world"
When the Presidential party arrived at
Colonel Estey's home they alighted and
were welcomed by Mrs. Estey, standing in
duced to the people by Colonel Estey, said,
in part:
RATHER LABORIOUS REST ...
"Governor Proctor held out to me the sug-
gestion that this trip to Vermont would bea
very restful one. lLaughter.l He has about
as little appreciation of what rest is as any
man 1 know" [Laughter.I Mr.. Harrison
dwelt upon the Vermont man and his
character in pleasing words.
At $3.50 o'clock the train started on its re-
turn to Bellows Falls. On the trip to Proc
tor stops were made at Chester Proctors-
vile and Ludlow. On the arrival here the
special train proceeded directly to Proctor,
where the President and party will be the
guests of Secretary Proctor over night.
