them out of the staie-should succeed in

The board of railroad commissioners
is composed of radical Republicans with

an advocate of Republican candidates
and measures during the last campaign,
however. 1t is therefore disharlening
to notice as we do by a recent decision of
that body that its members have as

rights of Kansas. The rank and the file
may be excused for taking their seats

BLAKELY--LOW.

One of the most charming wedding,
which has recently occurred in New Yorl
was that in which many Bradford friend,
were deeply interested marriage or
Thursday. April 2lst, at the Central Con
gregatlonal church, by the pastor, DR.
Mr.. and Mrs. David Blakely whose coun
try residence and ancestral home is in OuI
midst) and Mr.. Walter G. Low, son of MIR
and Mrs. George A. Low, of BROOKLYN,
The church, writes representative of the
OPINION who was present, was charmingly
decorated, as was the home of the bride's
! parents at 48 West 59th street, with tropical
plants, Easter and Gala lilies and other
blooms, many of them sent by Mr.. Blake
ly's gardener from his own conservatory
and greenhouses in Bradford.
The best man was Mr.. c. w. Porter, a
college classmate of the groom, and the
ushers were Messrs. j Herbert and Evarts
Abbott, son of DR.. Lyman Abbott, Geo. A .
French, Joseph N. Tuttle and Frank V.
johnson.
The Maid of Honor was Miss Pauline
Blakely, and the bridesmaids the Misses
Bertha and Julie Blakely, sisters, and Miss
Genevieve Hubbard of Chicago, and Miss
Grace Anderson, of Boston, cousins of the
bride.
AS the bridal party passed down the aisle
between rows of gaily dressed friends. am
excellent male quartette sang the bridal
march from Lohengrin; and as they re-
turned after the ceremony, the Joyous peals
of the organ caused the church to resound
with The inspiring strains of Memberships
Wedding March.
In very truth this was a ''White4yed
ding" white in the pure beauty a the
bride, in the silken sheen of her trailing
garments and envelOping veil of gauze, and
IN the exquisite toilets of the Maid of Hon
or and the four youthful bridesmaids, all
well and pleasingly known to our people
by their summer sojourns among us.
Surely, there is not resident of our
beautiful village who will not rejoice at
this joyous result of long anticipated
event, as well because of the happiness of
the beloved principals in the affair, as at a
union which perpetuates name long hon
Ored in this community, and conspicuous
for its Identification with every enterpris-
ing landmark of the village.
1t further ensures, we trust, for many
decades to come, the continued occupancy
by the Blakelys and Lows of their noble
old mansion among the NAPLES, which with
its beautiful grounds and surrounding en-
virons, has been for so many decades a con-
spicuouS feature in the landscape of our
lovely village.
Immediately after the ceremony the bri- |
dial party returned to the home of Mr.. and
Mrs Blakely, where bountiful lunch was
served, after which the newly married cOu-
pie took the train for brief SOjourn in the |
sunny South.
We are pleased to learn that they will |
pass considerable portion of the summer |
With their parents at the old mansion on

The Vermont Reunion at the
National Capital.
EMINENT AND DISTINGUISHED GUESTS OF
q THE ASSOCIATION.


The ''Green Mountain Boys" with theil
sweethearts and wives, children and friends
held the floor at Builders Hall last evening
the occasion being reception rendered by
the Vermont Association to the States rep
resentatives in Congress. The early eve.
ming was spent in social session, and about
Q O'clock Col. John r. Thompson, president
of the association, called the assemblage to
order, and in very neat speech INTRODUCED
Senator Proctor The Senator said that
the people of no State, wherever they
may be scattered, have more earnest feel
ing of loyalty and atfectlan for their old
home than VermOnters, and spoke in high
praise of the character of the mountain peO-
pie. His reference to the recovery OF his
colleague, Senator Morrill,, evoked hearty
applause from the assemblage.
Myron NJ. Parker introduced Ge1S1oik
lam w. CIRCUIT, who, he said, was esp -
beloved in this city because of his great ser
vices for Washington as member of the
District Committee The general mOdestly
disclaimed the tribute paid to him, but said
that whatever humble part he had taken in
building up Washington was because he
saw In it the possibilities of one of the finest
cities on he globe.
Gen. Butterfield eulogized the Vermont
soldier and introduced as a specimen State
hero Gen. l.. A. Grant, Assistant Secretary
of War, who commanded the First Yer
mont Brigade during the late war. Gen.
Grant responded gracefully, and brought
out Gen. Veazey, commissioner of inter-
state commerce, who commanded the Sec
ond Brigade.
The speakers INDUCED in deal of jovial
badinage between times, and the speeches
were a credit TO the wit and
Orat0rical ability of the State, which has
always been ably represented in Congress.
Mr.. John Tweedale, chief clerk in the War
Department, read appropriate poems, "The
Green Mountain Boys" and 'My Uncle
jerry" and Harry Brandon sang pleas
ing ballad.
After the literary programme was con
Guided the floor was given over to dancing,
which continued until midnight.
Among other distinguished VermOnters
present were Paymaster General Smith,
Gen. Van Vleet and State Treasurer Field.

Bradford'S Proposed Fair.
Capital Stock $4,000. $4,000 as
Guarantee Find

Capital Stock $1,000. $1,000 as q
Guarantee Fund.
Now is the time to encourage and
help organize FAIR Ground Company
AS all are aware, Bradford has the
most natural fair ground in the State,
and Bradford is also the natural cen
ter for fourteen towns anG twenty
seven villages, which stand ready to
assist in starting and supporting such
an organization. Nature has done all
she could for us, and if we wish to
have fair held in our town, we must
now do our part With a capital stock
of $5000 of which $4,000 will be ex-
pended in erecting suitable buildings,
including grand stand, and putting the
track in good condition. The other
$4,000 to be kept as guarantee fund
that all premiums and purses will be
paid in full, would meet with success
from the outset, and portion of the
stock could be paid back to the stock
holders each year, until the whole of
the stock had been returned and six
per cent interest realized besides. This
is matter that concerns every Brad
fordite and there should be no divis-
ion of sentiment or feeling, but all
should vie with each other in their eff
forts towards the success of this enter
prise, as it benefits not only the town
but the whole county and state.
The next meeting will be held at Ho-
tel Low, Saturday, May 9TH, at
o'clock p. M, and all interested are re-
quested to be present.

The progress of the various divisions
charged with the preparation of the
| Worlds Columbian Exposition of 1898,
| is not only satisfactory, but marvellous.
! The great buildings are beginning to rise
from the ground as if by magic the sur
rounding lands are rapidly being con-
verted into gardens of beauty, railroads
and avenues of access are being estab-
lished, the hum of mighty workings is
heard in every direction, and evidence
of active growth toward early compile
tion is everywhere presented,
In extent, variety and novelty, this
exposition will far overshadow anything
of the kind the world has ever seen, or
is likely to see. for years to come. The
| French exposition of 1889 was grand
affair, greatly superior and much more
costly than any similar preceding enter
prise. The area covered by buildings
was seventy-tive acres, and the cost nine
and half millions Of dollars. The ar
chitecture and general appointments
We're of the finest description;
The buildings of the Columbian Expo
sition it is estimated will cover one hun
dred and fifty acres, or double the rooted
space of the Partisan exhibition. What
a glorious spectacle, what vast pano-
rama of industrial wonders, will be pre-
sented to the eye of the visitor at
Chicago
Respecting the architectural qualities
of the buildings, it is generally conceded
the Chicago structures will surpass in
beauty all previous works in the same
line. The designs for the chief build
ings we've intrusted to a committee of
the leading American architects, the
-, 1, n,,f 6 : ha
country; and the adopted plans are the
Independent results of the best talent
and careful study.
The Liberal Arts and Manufactures
Building is SSS feet wide and ! 700 feet
long, covering over thirty acres; aston |
ishing for its gigantic dimensions, to say
nothing of the elegance displayed in its
constructive details.
The other principal buildings, such as
the Palace of Fine Arts, the Woman's
Pavilion, Agricultural Hall, Administra-
ton Building, Machinery Hall, Palace IF
Electricity, Horticultural Building, Trans
portation Building. Mining Building,
Government Building are notable for
their great area and architectural beauty.
The estimated aggregate cost of this
extraordinary exposition is twenty-three
millions of dollars-a much larger sum
than the original figures; but the original
plans did not contemplate such vast and
comprehensive proportions as were at
last decided upon. Great as were the
first plans, they proved to be inadequate
for the enormous demands made upon
the directors for space for most import
ant exhibits. The enlargement could
not be foreseen. 1t became necessary
by a process, as it were, of natural
growth, due to the stupendous nature of
the undertaking.
