ence, there being about forty present.
A few of the Laurelites visited Yager
last Saturday night to attend the Peo-

OF the weather prevented many Others
from doing the same.
Mr., a. Headland, the dairyman of
Fairhaven, was in Laurel last Tuesday
buying milch cows, having purchased
one from Mr.. Pierce and is looking for
more,
Mr.. Fred Kenoiyer has shipped two
carloads Of shingles east 10 Mansfield
Ohio. This is an experiment with Mr.,
Kenolyer, but if 1t should prove sue
cessful he intends to make an exten.
tive addition to his shingle mill. We
hope this enterprise may be sufficiently
profitable to justify Mr.. Kenoiyer i'm
making the proposed improvements
The resources Of this section for fur
nishing the material with what would
be required for one shingle mill with a
cutting capacity of 100000 per day, is
almost ineXhaustibie. Mr.. KeroIyer
Informs as that the lowest possible
rate he could secure was 90 cents per

Tho Monument Suit.

1.-THE following communication was
crowded out of last weeks paper.-ED. ]
Editor of the Bdnner.-I noticed in
another journal, lately, that Mr.. Charles
NJ. Bliss has been sending circulars to
members of the Battle Monument
Association, asking their opinion about
a settlement of his case now pending in
the courts, and suggesting a settlement
by counsel. The same authority states
that counter circular has been put
forth by certain gentleman whose names
it gives, opposing what it assumes to be
Mr.. Bliss proposition.
As a member of the Association | re-
ceived both circulars and do not under
stand that Mr.. Bliss put forth any such
suggestion as the last circular rep
resents that he did. 1 should be as much
opposed to that proposition as the gentle
men themselves.
Mr.. Bliss, as 1 read his circular, does
not propose to discontinue the case and
leave the matter out to the arbitration of
the six LAWYERS as the last circular
assumes. He proposes to have the law
yers, under instructions from their re-
spective clients, undertake to effect a
fair and honorable settlement Of the case

ceedings stop, otherwise they go on. A
short process would determine whether
the lawyers can agaee. They know sub
stantially what the merits of the case on
both sides are, and, if instructed to make
an end of this business, would undoubt-
eddy do so, though this process would
stop their fees at once.
This method of settling cases is a
common one. 1t has two advantages,
viz. The counsel can talk over the
affairs without partisan feeling; and can
come to a reasonably fair conclusion
when the parties themselves could not.
Should they do so in this case, they
would end long controversy and would
thus deserve the thanks of this whole
community, and of the Association it
self, large numbers of whom, know,
have a strong desire to see this case
settled in their lifetime.

In the case of Childs VS. Merrill, the
jury found the defendant guilty, with
damages to the full amount Of note and
interest. Two Sandgate cases were then
tried Hoyt US McNally and Still VS. Snow,
both brought to recover money for prop
erty sold, the defendants alleging fraud
and Misrepresentation in the sales. In
both cases the court directed verdict
for plaintiff and the cases will go to the
Supreme court on exceptions. The case
of Childs VS. Merrill also goes to the Su-
preme court. The next case was the
famous bear case, the respondent, Geo.
Reed being under indictment for stealing
a bear out of trap. The point was
made that the indictment was faulty,
because it did not allege that the bear
was confined in trap and the court sus-
tanned the point and the indictment was

A Duty Owing to the Public.


One of the lady members of the family
of Mr.. S. M. Sibley writes us letter as
follows:
To the Editor of the Bdnner:-DEAB
SIR.-A recent issue of your paper, in re.
ferring to the proposed improvement on
the corner of Main and North streets, has
this statement rs. NJ. Sibley refuses
to sell the little plot, and so the old
rookery is to become a monument OF
unprogressiveness." Will you please
correct this assertion? Mr.. Sibley does
not refuse to sell this property, but re.
serves the legitimate privilege OF
determining the price, he being the best
judge of its value to him.
Our fair correspondent is entitled to
her opinion and we have no desire to
misrepresent Mr.. Sibley. We know that
this community believe he is standing in
his own light when he places upon the
old wooden corner building price that
virtually prohibits its sale. We take the
ground that while Mr.. Sibley has the
Legitimate privilege'-nay, to go
further, the legal right-to ask what he
pleases for that property, or any other,
whether he sells it or not, yet public
spirit suggests that he owes something
to the community in which he has lived
for many years, and out of whose
patronage he has grown rich. 1t is not
likely, moreover, that this property will
be as productive after the opera house
block is completed. No one can build
up the corner of North and Main streets
as well now or afterwards as Mr.. Putnam
can. This is no reflection upon Mr..
Sibley, it is simply the circumstances
surrounding the case. And we submit,
in all fairness, that our correspondent
will herself say, to leave that wooden
building on the corner is not in keeping
with the character of the improvements
now going on in all wide awake towns.
Mr.. Sibley is able to build on the corner
If nothing can be done otherwise why
not say he will build a brick building,
proceed to do so, and that would stop
the talk about "unprogressiveness

the children they had.
THERE is a slight change of time on
the railroads to go into effect next week,
the most important of which is that the

WHEN the tax notices were made out
last week, by mistake the Grand List of
all in the AS and BIS was added to them
in the second blank for highway tax.
This in effect said that special high
way tax equal to the total Grand List
had been laid by some. CONSERVATION
was succeeded by considerable fun. The
fact remains, however, that we have an
increase of 20 cents to make up the de-
ficiency caused by the following of the
Relormer'S figuring of last year, which
some one motioned and the meeting
thoughtlessly followed.
The Republican club was to have held
a meeting in the Village rooms Wednes-
day evening, and had been so advertised.
When the officers and members gathered
it was found that the President and the
Village Trustees came also. Inquiry de-
veloped the fact that each Trustee had
been notified by Editor Livingston of
special meeting. After discussion it
was decided that Mr.. Livingston had no
authority to call special village or trus-
tee meeting, or to summon the officials.
All the same the evening was devoted to
talk on village matters, and the Republi-
can club did not transact any business.
