LAWS OF VERMONT.

The legislature at its recent session
repealed the law providing for the pro-
mitigation of the public acts through the
newspapers. Radical changes have been
made in the school, the grand list, high
way. ballot and many other laws. Every
citizen, and especially every public Of
fetal, will need to know what new laws
have been made and how the old ones
have been changed. The book of ses-
sion laws published by the State will
not be out before February, and will
then supply less than one in forty of the
people of the State. To meet the in
slant demand for copies of the public
acts Montpelier firm is printing, and
will have out by Saturday of this week
or Monday of next, pocket edition OF
such acts, printed In clear legible type,
on good paper, with covers and well
bound. 1t will thus be in better form
for reference and for preservation than
the newspaper supplements and will in
fact be more convenient than the State
edition. Single copies can be had at the
REGISTER office, as soon as a supply Is
received, for Is cents each. Orders by
mail will receive prompt attention.

All the gear round
is the time when DR.. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery works the best.
1t purifies the blood.
It's not like the sarsaparillas,
which claim to do good in March,
April, and May; you can depend
upon it al,oays. That's why it is
guaranteed. If it doesn't benefit or
cure, in every case for which it's
recommended, you have your money
back.
No other medicine of its kind
says as much but no other does
as much. 1t cleanses, rcnews and
invigorates the entire system. For
all skin, scalp and scrofulous affec-
tions, as Eczema, letter, Salt-rheum,
White Swellings, Hip-joint Disease,
and kindred ailments, it's positive
cure.
The proprietors of DR.. Sage's
Catarrh Remedy offer $500 for an
incurable case of Catarrh. 1t isn't
mere talk its business.
They mean to pay you, if they
can't cure you. But you'll find
that they can.

The grand jury came In on Saturday
forenoon of last week and brought In nine
indictments, making - In all for the term.

discharged for the term.

First Episcopal society of Addison coun-

The city council has at last sue
ceeded in finally establishing the res
olution about the payment Of city
orders in the order of registration.
which will prevent the saloons
having practical control of the order
market. The resolution was passed
some time ago, and the mayor con.
sidered it for few weeks and vetoed
it. On Wednesday evening Of this
week was the first meeting since the
veto that there have been present
enough aldermen to pass a resolution
over veto. Six members were
present Wednesday evening, and the
resolution was passed unanimously,
making it a city law. The mayor
and council were both acting in good
faith to benefit the holders of city
orders, but their ideas were directly
opposite as to the proper method,
and we believe the council were
right in the matter.
OeVerA SAIGON men were opposed
to the resolution as under the old
rule of accepting orders for licenses
1t gave them q power to say whose
orders should be paid, especially
when the number outstanding was
in excess of the total licenses due.
While they favored the old way, they
were not very emphatic, as they
realize that with the liberties they
enjoy now there could be no great
benefit in fighting for q plan that
was for their slight benefit and to
the detrimeut of large class of city
creditors. 1t is good policy for the
saloon men to let yell enough alone.
