PowderIy,s seathIng Arraignment

Grand Master-Workman Powderly of the
Knights of Labor, has published a scath-
ing article against the Democratic national
committee, and other Democratic managers
for their action in circulating as a cam
paign document, garbled extract from a
recent magazine article of his. Mr.. Pow
derly declares, with hot wrath, that
"A party which seeks to obscure its villainous
declaration in favor Of wildcat banks behind a
whrlwind dust kind of tariff discussion must be
in sore straits The Republican party has
been charged with being the party Of plntocracy
of wealth and monopoly, but the Democratic
party has the supreme gall to assume, with an
air of patrOniZng ownership, the privilege Of die
claims to be the party of the poor man. rant
that it ought to be- for the poor have given ii the
strength to live long enough to see its candidate
for the presidency write against free silver at the
dictatiOn Of Wall street, long enough To its
national convention frame dishonest declaration
in favor of wildcat banks long enough to see the
principal actors on the bUaTd squiTm and shift
with every wind to catch the votes Of poor men.
Yes, the Democratic party is the party Of the
poor man. and if be continues to vote that ticket
he will never be anything else but poor man
In conclusion Mr.. Powderly says that he
is not writing campaign documents for
either the Democrats or the Republicans,
but that he gives his support to Weaver
and Field, the candidates of the People
party, because that party was honest
enough to bid for Knights of Labor votes
by adopting the preamble of the Knights
of Labor as its platform.

THE POULTRY.

The exhibition in the poultry department
was one of the best ever seen at fair in
New England, both in the number and
quality of the birds, which comprised all
the leading varieties in both land and water
fowls, ranging in size from the lordly
Brahma to the diminutive Bantam. The
total number of birds was S75. The largest
exhibitors were j. o. Frost & Son of Yer
non, who had 250 birds, or AZ varieties.
Other large out-of-town exhibitors were
Marsh d Reed Westport, n. H.; Hub
bard q Hamilton, Chesterfield Factory,

which beat the KecOrd---Ftnc Strains
of Dairy stock.
The reputation of the Valley Fair for the
exhibition of some of the best cattle to be
found in New England has been well sus-
tanned. Perhaps the number of cattle on
exhibition may have been little short of
that in some previous years, but it largely
exceeded that of an ordinary state fair
There were fewer exhibits from distant To-
calites, nearly the whole number coming
from Brattleboro and the nearby towns of
this state, New Hampshire and MasSa-
chusetts But even without representatives
from some of the famous herds of the more
distant towns, it was most excellent show
of cattle.
There We're, probably, never five better
yoke of cattle shown by one exhibitor in all
New England than the five pair of beauti-
full HerefOrds shown by W. f. Richardson,
of BrattleborO. An old drOveT, who has
been for years familiar with the Boston
cattle markets, says he has never before
seen ten as good oxen owned by one man.
They were from four to five years of age
and ranged from 5000 to 1900 pounds in
weight; but their chief merit was in the
beauty of their forms and the minimum
quantity of waste material which they car
ried. Mr.. Richardson had also very hand
some two-years-old and three-years-old
Hereford steers. The weight of the two
years-old st6 ers was POO, of the three
years-old 3400. He also had other oxen
and steers, making a total of 15 pairs. lie
exhibited in all classes about 36 head of
cattle, many of which were decorated with
blue ribbons. Among his other exhibits
were fat cows and a handsome Hereford
bull, three years old.
Only two town teams competed for the
prizes-One from Hinsdale and the other
from Guilford. The Hinsdale team was
composed of ten yoke of heavy oxen, all
but one or two of them weighing over
$500. The oxen in this team were general
ly well proportioned and thrifty looking
cattle, as were also most of those i'm the
Guilford team. The heaviest oxen that we
noticed in the Hinsdale team weighed 1864
pounds; the heaviest i'm the Guilford team,
$3.50. The Guilford team was a little
larger in number than the Hinsdale team.
Hinsdale won the first premium.
Waite q Nichols had several pairs of
their famous heavy cattle and draft oxen
on exhibition. They had one pair of 4SOO
oxen and Others ranging from 1000 pounds
upwards. L. f. Stockwell also had sew
eral pairs of oxen of similar style and

Gov. Mckinley makes his mark wherever
he appears on the platform. Last Friday
night he addressed an immense audience
in Philadelphia, and veteran politicians
say there has not been such an enthusias-
tic meeting in that city since war time.
His appearance upon the platform was the
signal for tumultuous applause, but that
was a zephyr compared with the storm of
cheering and excitement when he closed
his address. Gov. McKinleys speech was
mainly on the tariff, with a few words
about the wildcat currency plank of the
Democratic platform. His epigrammatic
declaration on this latter issue that "The
money of this country should be as ma
tional as the flag was the signal for APP
plause which fairly shook the building.

THE TROTTING.

Very Exciting and Satisfactory Races
The BrattlebOrO Track Holds the state
Record, 2;IS 81.
The trotting was the best ever seen in
Brattleboro. The scoring did not occupy
as much time as usual, and the races as a
rule were exciting, being particularly so in
the free-for-all class Thursday. This race
was not completed until after six heats
were trotted. In the second heat Ned
Winslow, owned by W. A. Bagg of Spring
field, Mass, broke the state record, which
was lowered on the kite shaped track at
White River Junction at the recent state
fair to 2:22 and fraction. His time was
2:1S4. All the heats in this race were trot-
ted in 2:23 or less. The best previous
record on the Brattleboro track is said to
have been 2:26 and fraction
On the first day the driver of b. VI. G..
was set back to last place in the heat which
if fairly won would have given him the
race His offence was in cutting off Eve
lyn, and in shouting during the race. How
ever he won the next heat and the race

Charles S. Hamlin of Brookine was nom
mated for secretary of state, and James s.

Free 90 speech I'm Georgia.

Gen. Weaver, the presidential candidate
of the Peoples party, started to make a
stumping tour of the state of Georgia, but
had to give it up because he and his party
were treated so outrageously that they
could not proceed After being hooted
and jeered by gangs of organized rowdics
at several places, the trouble eliminated at
Macon, where Gen. Weaver began to ad-
dress a crowd from the hotel balcony, out
was pelted with rotten eggs one of these
missiles hitting Mrs Weaver in the face
and smearing the clothing of other ladies.
The despatch which gives these particulars
adds significantly that after Gen. Weaver
and his party had given up and retired to
the hotel parlor, "the Democrats took ad-
vantage of the occasion and several
speeches were made At Atlanta the
next night Gen. Weaver refused to address
a crowd which was evidently ready TO use
the same tactics. and sent letter to the
state committee of his party refusing to
meet further appointments.

Mr.. and Mrs, W. G. Cowles arrived
last evening from their three months
European trip, Their visit to the Old
World was one Of lty,d Pleasure,
and good health and enjoyable sur
roundings attended them throughout.
They visited nearly every country Of
Europe and saw the brilliancy Of the
great capitals as well az the more
humble spots made great by the associa-
tions connected with them. Mr..
Cowles took camera with him and has
nearly 400 photographs of buildings,
streets, interiors, ETC., which make a
magnificent collection. They arrived
in New York Sept. II and spent one
day in quarantine. The outing was
one which will be always remembered
and which their friends have almost
been inclined to envy them.

DO you see the resultp The laborer's
wife and the professional mans wife
save nearly one half their husbands
income by buyingat the Benefit instead
Of elsewhere. The figures are given
directly from those marked on he goods
and there is no discounting them.
The reason for these remarkably low
prices on all kinds Of goods Is that the
Benefit has the advantage in buying.
II hns two buyers constantly In the
Chicago market looking for bargains.
They buy for four large stores and
consequently purchase in such large
quantities that they are able to get the
very bottom prices aud to give these to
their customers.
Since its starting in Abilene, the
Benefit has aimed TO give to the people
Of Dickinson county the advantage OF
its best efforts and it has been eminent
ly successful. Its two large stores are
crowded with goods, everything modern
tylish and cheap and the customers Of
the store find ii the best possible place
to purchase, as the prices shown else
