Down With Butter.

KELLY again comes forward as the friend of the consumer. He has done his part in bringing down prices on bread, -four, eggs and sugar and now he is going to bring the, butter market to a point where the poor as well as the rich can buy the famous Vermont Print Butter" and Elgin Creamery. Owing to the large quantity of hay and corn grown in this country there is no reason why the best tub butter should sell for more than 25 cents per pound, Kelly commences to- day to sell at this figure and gives you 8 guarantee that it won't cost any mo till Nov. 1, '92. How can Kelly do it! buying direct and selling for cash. Under this same system he sells you four at $5. 50 per barrel, your eggs for IS cents dozen and 22 pounds of sugar for $1.
 PRINT BUTTER drops from 35C to 29c. The parties making butter sell to New York commission men ,whO sell it toBridge- port jobbers, who send an agent to this city to sell in one or two tub lots. Every transaction with the freight included adds from to cents pound, making total of 6 or 2 cents before it is put on the table. Kelly's system does away with all this.

AMUSEM ENTS.
"A Straight TinN


 "A Straight Tip," one of the funniest comedies on the road, will be presented at the opera house this evening. It is doubtful if any farce-com edY has made the money that this has, and it is in con- cempt of question that none have given more jolly entertainments than this. "A Straight Tip is representative in that it answers the great demand for laughter that it Nnmistakably made by American audience. A tired and overs worked business man wants a relief for the nervous tension under which he works. He gets in 1t "A Straight Tip. ''

The New England Bled in the Interest
 of Other Lines.
 Charles Howard, late general mana ger of the New England road, has pub lished an open letter, in which he gives certain figures and statements from his last annual report, which he claims were suppressed by the Bostwick-Cor- bin directorate. The letter is in reply to charges of mismanagement on MT Towards part.
 His statements show that there was a deficit of SIPS, ,173 in 1891, as against a surplus of $96, ,S24 in 1890; that tho fixed charges increased SPA, ,O3S, and that railroad construction was embarrassed for want of money; that freight earn ings increased S54 ,613; that the New England road was systematically "bled" in the interest of the New England Ter minal company, Eastern States line and freight ronte by way of Wilson's Point; that there was advanced to the Terminal company $1S,9 1925, and in addition $50, 900 was loaned to it; that freight revenues were reduced $43 ,295 by trans portation by the New England Terminal line instead of by the company's own route.
 He also says that coal was hauled at a net loss of $31 ,438; that the Eastern States and Long Island passenger trains lost $A, ,O5S in less than four months; that two freight trains by this route dropped $3,711 in the same time, and that other losses all along the line were caused by arbitrary orders to run these trains on time, tying up the regular through passenger and freight business of the road, SO that the company came to the verge of bankruptcy, and MT Howard, being left to his own resources raised $500, ,O00 and retired the floating debt.
 He says the company's accounts were kept in the manner of all railroad accounts; that coal was purchased by contract approved by the directors, and had been bought of one firm for fifteen years; that ''Kem-Kom" cost $28, ,OOO being given six months trial without expense to the company, and being ther adopted on the recommendation of tho superintendent of motive power; that il saved coal, consumed smoke, and was 2 good investment for the road.
 He says that transportation schedulei were not entangled, and, in conclusion that there is hope for the property i lGeneral Manager Mellen is allowed tC manage it without interference, and i lpresent excrescences are cut off.

Farmer Last Summer.
 "Bunco" O'Brien, who was recently convicted in New York state for swindling a man named Peck out of $1 ,OOO by his clever manipulation of the cards, and sentenced to prison for ten years, and who subsequently escaped, has visited Waterbury on one or two occasions.
 O'Brien, it is said, was member of the gang who victimized a Morris farmer out of several thousand dollars last summer. A private detective from New York came to this city after the robbery and offered to secure the money for the farmer, if he would pay him $2O0 for his services. It was said that the detective had located the men and that O'Brien was one of the gang. The Morris man would not accept the detecLives offer, and nothing was ever heard about the matter until O'Brien's trial, conviction and escape brought it up again.

 of Its Location.
 From evidence given yesterday in the trial of John Kerr and James English, for burglarizing the store of George H. Ford of Waterville, it was shown that the postoffice of that place is located in place where liquors are sold.

About four months ago people of Wa terville petitioned the county commis- sioners not to grant Ford a license. But the license was granted, notwithstand- ing. Some time later, Clerk Cole of the Waterbury superior court notified the postal authorities at Washington how the office in Waterville was located. An official reply has not yet been re- ceived.

PETER at Garnett.

AS per announcement Senator
PETER spoke in this city, Tuesday.
The meeting was held at the Grand
Opera House.
Hon. D. O. Markley, Peoples
candidate for state senator from the
Seventh district, was first intro
duced, and he spoke about twenty
minutes to large and appreciative
audience. The opera house was
filed to overfowing, and the people
gave frequent evidences of their ap-
proval of the speakers sentiments.
Senator w. A. PETER was then
introduced, and he spoke at length,
touching many, but not all, of the
issues that are now occupying the
attention of the people. We shall
not attempt to give even short por-
tion of the speech.
An evening meeting had not been
announced, but, during the meeting,
it was learned that the Senator was
willing to speak at night, so meet
ing was announced. The evening
meeting was reasonably well attend
ed by citizens of Garrett.
The Senator's evening speech was
mainly devoted to subjects that in
terest the merceant, the banker, the
lawyer, etc. 1t was solid, sensi-
BILE, impassioned business talk, and
should have been heard by every
business man in the city The SEN
ator abuses no one, He discusses
nothing but cold facts-appeals to
reason, and not to prejudice. He is
certainly capable OF engaging the
minds of thoughtful people.
Rev. j. K. White, candidate for
county superindent of public in
struction, also made short, stirring
speech. Mr.. White is eminently
capable of filling the offibe to which
lie aspires.
Taken altogether, Tuesdays
meetings were highly satisfactory to
the Populisls, though not to "our
friends, the enemy"

On Wednesday morning, passen-
ger train No. 8, on the Atchison,
Topeka & Santa Fe railroad, was
wrecked by unknown miscreants,
about three miles west of Usage
City. The engine, baggage, express
and mail cars, two day coaches, two
chair cars and three sleepers were
thrown over an embankment and the
first six cars telescoped. Four per-
sons were killed outright and twenty
five seriously injured. There was
over a million dollars in the express
car, with extra guards on board.
Strange to say, no attempt was made
by the robbers to secure any of the
money, although they could easily
have taken it. 1t is thought. they
were frightened away by the. great
wreck they had wrought No clue
to the miscreants has been reported,

THE whisky power of the United
States has been organized for forty
years. 1t has got everything of the
politician that it asked, simply be-
cause it always voted solidly for its
claims. The gold gamblers organ
lied thirty years ago. Let "excep-
tion clauses" " STRENGTHENING acts"
and demonstration of silver tell the
story of their efforts.
The American manufacturers Or
ganized, and the Mckinley tariff is
one of the results. Railroad COM
panies are organized, with the re-
suit that they buy Legislators and
congressman, corrupt the judiciary
and defy government. Every COM
bination or trust in the United
States can get what it wants for the
asking, so formidable and powerful
have they became in a long career
of aggression and robbery. Labor
is only partially organized; in fact,
no effective organization exists in
any class of laborers. The laborer
is told not to organize, and there
are so many dummies that heed the
advice that the weakness Of any
class of laborers is the opposition
found in its own ranks. With some
men, the little finger of the politi-
clan is larger than the loins OF his
neighbors; and the paid tools of
plutocracy have hindered or thwart-
ed the efforts of the real friends of
laboring men. There is lack of wis
dom and discernment in all this.
The laborers and farmers of this
country ought to organize for the
purpose of protection and mutual
benefit, and after having ascertained
what they need, do like the whisky
their vote solid for the
n. an ready to give them their re-
cLi ement. The farmers will never
get anything but what they have
got in the past, till they learn to
fight in solid column.
