The united opinion. [volume] (Bradford, Vt.) 1881-1970, 1892-12-09

The question of fire insurance is get.
ting to be of extreme Importance to
the people, and how to best protect
our buildings and property fIom the
ravages of fire caused by accident or
the incendiaries torch must soon lead
all other commercial questions. Brad
ford has new got the most approved
water facilities. Have we proper hose
and carriages for our safety? The fol,
Hampshire People and Patriot, will
throw much light on the question of
fires:
In view Of the alarming increase of fire losses through
the country it is probable that the legislature of
every in Union will be called upon at the
ing session to pass stringent laws for the proven
ton OF fires
The National board Of Fire Underwriters estimates
the value OF property destroyed in the United States IN
the year 1901 at and for the ten years end
ing Dec. 81. 1891, at over SI,Iooooo,ooo = -
The amount lost in I8a.-s.eseds 'hs s fi1sse'ss
maintaining the public schools in 1890 1t exceeds the
whole amount Of national bank notes in circulation on
Sept IS. 1891. 1t exceeds the whole payment to pen
soners by the for that year. and exceeds
the value Of all merchandise imported in American YES
sel during the wear ending June 80, 1891 81
Underwriters believe that at least one nan OF TINS
portion OF this loss is due to incendiarsm and criminal
essness They also believe that this portion Of the
loss,coud be mostly prevented by suitable laws with Ell
hcient penalties.
1t has been held that the question Of reducing the fire
losses Of the country is matter with which the ma
tonal can properly deal and therefore the
board has letters all the governors OF the state
asking them to take action in the premises and make
such recommendations as they think proper.
There is matter, however, which the board has fail
ID call attention and that is the criminal neglect OF
officers Of and many cities in providing the neces-
iary apparatus for the extingun hment o fires.
II stringent laws in regard to incendiarism and
criminal careesness will effect saving OF halt this
enormous fire loss in opinion could be still iur-
her reduced by the passage of laws compelling the |
maintenance Of suitable fire department in every town
md city, and compelling, by heavy penalties, the Off
aIs in charge that the apparatus is ready
or service all times.
Such law, enforced to the letter, would have more
fleet reduce the fire losses than any other and 1t ls
oped that the New Hampshire legislature will take the
cad in enactng such legislation at the coming session

| Died in Bradford, Nov. Is. Mrs. Ann G..
wife of Jesse NJ Merrill, aged 68 years, IL
months and rs days.
| In the departure of Mrs. Merrill it may
| be truthfully said that saint has gone to
her rest, and multitudeS will rise up to call
her blessed. She was born of good parent
age and at the age of IA, while serving in
the family of Mr.. and Mrs. Moses Little,
parents of her late pastor, Rev. John 5.
Little, she was born again, and from that
time forth devoted her life to the Masters
service. Soon after her conversion she
united with the Methodist church in the
neighborhOOd where she lived and has
proved one OF its most faithful members
She was married when little past Is years
of age and spent some thrty-eight years of
her welded life at the home where she died.
She was the mother of two sors and three
daughters. The eldest son, who deceased
several years since, greets her gladly upon
the other shore. while the rest with the hus-
band and father bemoan what appears to
them her too early flight into higher realms.
Her sickness was brief, combining her to the
bed for about three weeks. Sabbath even
ing before her death she called her family
together, conversed with them about going
home, urged them all to meet her in heaven
when work should be done, and then pray
as he leaned upon the top of his staff await |
ing the summons to go up higher. Tues
day morning she said, II am very happy"
She babe the family all good bye and men
toned each child and grandchild by name. |
She was conscious till within a few MN
utes of death, and her last utterance was,
"Praise the Lord" The funeral services |
were holden at the home Friday, the 18th, |
and the house was crowded with friends
and neighbors who had come to pay the |
last tribute of respect to her whom they |
loved so well. H. w. WORTHLN.

Booth, S. P. Avery, w. G. Prime and

biological collection of the late Harry
Edwards, the well-know,n actor, has been
purchased and presented to the American
Museum of Natural History. The price
paid for the collection, which numbers

half of which was, received by the COM
mittee through subscriptions from, pro-
fessional and personal friends OF Mr..

The balance of the amount was assumed
by the trustees of the museum.
Mr.. W. R. Sperry, who has been ap-
pointed minister to Persia, is the editor
and chief proprietor of the Morning

PERSONAL AND PECULIAR.

1t is rumored that Oscar Wilde will
visit America this fall.
1t is said that Tom Carter, chairman of
the Republican national committee, was
once book agent in Illinois.
Richard Croker, who rose from a
machinist's bench to be the powerful
head of Tammany Hall, was engineer of
the first steam fire-engine used in New
York. He afterwards became foreman
of Engine Company Twenty-eight, posi-
ton Of influence and Importance in poll
tics, and his election as alderman few
years later, in 1867, gave him start on
the career he has since followed with so
much success.
Senator Ingalls, is travelling through
Europe studying current events. He
will write up his observations for one of
the New York papers, it is said, and
there can be no question about the in
terest it will have. He is now in Vienna
From there he will go to Rome and then
back to Berlin, where he has already
made brief stay. He will return home
by way of Paris and London, reaching
here about Sept. 1.
Mr.. James Whitcomb Riley is much in
demand nowadays as an after-dinner
speaker. His prose halts a little, but
his listeners always forgive these de-
fects when the poet concludes his speech
as he almost invariably does, by the reci-
tation of some of his famous stanzas.
Professor Garner, who has gone to
Africa to study the language of the gor-
lila and the chimpanzee, says he will not
return until he has secured sufficient
photographic records of the speech of
these two great types of monkey life to
be able to settle definitely the subject of
monkey language.

Grand total $463, 1913, $1,000 $513, 943, $4,000
1t will be seen that up to the present
this Congress has appropriated about
$50, 100000 more than did the last
Congress at the corresponding session.
The almost invariable rule is that Con-
gressess appropriate more money at the
second session than at the first, and in
the case of this Congress there will be
far less restraint upon it in the short
session than in the one now drawing
to close. The Presidential election
will then be over and the political CAPT
tai consideration which has probably had
some restraining influence this session
will then have ceased to be effective. 1t
is as certain as anything in the future
can be that the appropriations of both
sessions of this Congress will exceed
those of both sessions of the last one
that is will rise above billion. Even with
economy the appropriations of the next
session will carry the total up to the
billion mark.
The frantic appeals Of Mr.. Holman to
keep down the appropriations below
those of the last Congress have been in
vain. Already they exceed them by $50
600, 900, and in the end they will rise to
$1O0O00,O00. The Democratic stump
orators are estopped from shouting
'.billion dollar Congress.

1t appears that the Democrats are very
reluctant to make q report of their in
vestigations of the Homestead strike, be-
cause such a report must show that the
wages paid the workmen there have been
very high and the prosperity of the wage
earners very marked. They began the
investigation with great eagerness, hop
ing no doubt, that it would turn out that
the men were poorly paid and oppressed
by their employers, but the demonstra-
ton which the evidence affords that the
exact opposite is the case, confounds
them. If they report truthfully they
must indirectly admit that the protec-
tive tariff has been of great benefit to the
Homestead workmen. This of course
they do not want to do, and SO the
probability is that they will keep silent
until after election.
