WORRYING ABOUT THE YOUNG
MENU

The White River Junction Land
mark is very much worried for fear
the young men in the republican
party will not have fair show when
the Offices are passed around this
year; and threatens dire consequences
at the polls next September if the de-
mands of the youngsters are not duly
recognized. Our contemporary should
not worry over-much. A glance at
the present list of office-hOlders in
this state will reveal fair sprinkling
Of so-called young men. Gov. Page
is not really an old man; Secretary
Brownell is not open to the suspicion
of being aged, and there are others on
the list who have not laid aside the
sprightliness of youth for the decrepi-
tude of advanced years. By all means
let us keep a good supply of young
men in the offices. 1t looks very
much as though the state proposed
to do that very thing, and most of
the Landmarks fears in that direc-
ton are groundless.

vote should be determined not alone
by the candidate nor by the general pro-
LESSONS of the party, but by the convic-
ton that the chances of honest and wise
government are fairer under that party
ascendency than under that of the op-
position.-[ Harper's Weekly.
That being the case, in view of the
internal disturbances among "the
other fellows" it is pretty safe to
figure where the chances of honest
and wise government" are at present
to be found.

The wreckers of the Maverick

The wreckers of the Maverick
national bank are in a fair way to
get their deserts. The federal grand
jury has found nineteen indictments
against President Potter and Direc-
tors French and Dana, involving
Justification, embezzlement and other
charges, and heavy bail has been re-
qulred. Unless some unforeseen in
cident intervenes, the law is likely to

That this is IAN age of discomfort"
is abundantly proved by certain
events at present occurring in diff
ferent parts of the world. The
socialistic upheaval in Germany, the
extensive strike Of the English coal
miners, the havoc wrought by famine
and pestilence in Russia, the numer-
Gus outbreaks among the South
American republics, and the political
agitation in our own country, all
indicate an uneasiness among the
masses which, as a local preacher
put it on Sunday last, is the fore
runner either of season of restful
peace or more serious commotion
that will shake the whole world.

The desire of somebody else to fill
that office is hardly a sufficient reason
for the suggestion, made by an ex-
change, that Auditor Powell need
not be given reelection. We have
no kno Wedge that Mr.. Powell has
decided to refuse another term in his
present position. If he has, then the
claim of somebody else will be in
order. If he is to stand as a candi-
date for reelection, then the i'm
portance of the office and the bust
ness-like manner in which he has
performed it's duties make it wise
thing on the part of the state to keep
him where he is. We are not in favor
of life leases in state offices, but
when change is made there should
be sensible reason for it.

6TAMFORD'S GREAT DAY.


Elaborate Exercises.
STANFORD, Conn, Oct 20. Stamford s
celebration of her 25Oth anniversary was
ended in a fitting manner.
On the spot where two and-a-half cen
turies ago a company of pilgrims, in re-
volt against the oppression of the times,
built their homes and planted the germs
from which American institutions grew,
some thirty thousand of their descend
ants and those who linked their fortunes
with them celebrated in fitting manner
the founding of the town.
The religious services Sunday, the chill
drens' exercises Monday, and the musical
festival Tuesday had whetted the appe-
tite of the towns people and their visitors
for something grand and imposing.
A big arch has been erected in Atlantic
street, near the public square. 1t was
inscribed ''Welcome to Stamford, 1911
1891"
A big reviewing stand had been con.
structed and the town had been draped
with bunting until its streets were like
rivers of red, white and blue, with here
and there portrait Of George Washing
ton and Columbus
Three Of Uncle Sans new ships anch-
ored in the harbor, added to the dignity
of the occasion. They were the Atlanta,
Miantonomah and Vesuvius.
The town had been crowded with peo-
pie since Sunday. But every train on
the closing day brought more people as
did also boats from along the Sound A
large number drove in from hamleUs in
the interior
During the forenoon the crowds ex-
amined the antiq uities exhibited in As5o-
citation Hall, and admired the decorations
along the principal streets. They alsC
visited the men-of-war in the harbor.
The feature Of the day, the grand mill
tary and civic parade, formed at Atlantic
| and Main streets and started shortly
after II o'clock
Commodore James D. Smith was
Grand Marshal, and forty leading citi
zens mounted acted as aides.
The streets We're packed with people,
and the police had no little difficulty in
clearing the way for the procession t.
move.
The G.. A. R. Posts followed the Ma.
tional Guard, and included posts from
Mount Vernon, N, Y; Norwalk, New
| Canaan, Westport, Greenwich, Danbury,
| Stamford and a delegation from the Sol
diers Home at Noroton, Conn
The parade was reviewed by Gov
| Bulkely and staff and ex-Gov Louusbury,

Paxso whose charge to the grand jury in
the Homestead treason cases is still cre-
ating so much of a national sensation.
Close behind him alighted Maj Gen.

More Trouble Over London's
Catholic Lord Mayor.
STORMY SCENES AT A MEETING

Kum's Adherents Finally Succeed il
Carrying Their Point-Poisoner Cream'
Chances for Escape Growing Very siiu
Yesterdays Testimony in the Case.
LONDON, Oct. 2O--A lively meeting
was held last night in Memorial Hall
under the auspices Of the Anti-Popery
Society, to protest against the election of
Alderman Kniil, a Catholic, as Lord
Mayor of London.
The chairman of the meeting was DR..
Phillips, a Hebrew, who was Kuills
chief opponent in the candidacy for the
office. Phillips had to shout at the top
of his voice throughout the meeting in
order to gain a hearing at all, and at
times the din was so great that no bust,
ness could be transacted. In the course
of some bitter remarks Phillips asserted
that Knill was an improper person for
Lord Mayor, inasmuch as he must obey
the orders of the Pope in all things At
this there were cries of "You're a liarp'
"Knill is an honest man" etc.
1t was evident at an early stage of the
proceedings that Knilps friends were in
the majority. Several fruitless attempts
to eject disturbers from the hall resulted
in fights, during which the proceedings
of the meeting were suspended. Ed
ward Littleto one of Phillips parJisaus
made a motion that Knill was an unfit
person to be Lord Mayor
Littleton explained that he had written
to Lord Salisbury, asking whether che ac-
tiou of the Pope in sending the pallium
to Archbishop Vaughn was not a defiance
of the laws OF England.
Lord Salisbury's reply was mere state
ment that the question was one for the
| lawyers to answer Roars of derisive
laughter followed the reading of the let
ter.
Mr.. Littleton evoked renewed jeers by
a complaint that Mr.. Gladstone, to whom
similar inquiry was addressed, haC
simply acknowledged the receipt of the
letter.
Beaufol Moore, president of the Anti
| Popery society. leader of the movement
against hnill, and owner Of the famous
| Cheshire Cheese hostelry, seconded Mr.
Littleto4 mo5on declaring the unfit
ness of kuill. His utterances wert
scarcely audible above the din made b.
shouts OF inquiry as to the price o
whiskey and other articles dealt in b,
Moore.
The friends of Knill now took charg
OF affairs, Capt. Salbury moving, as an
amendment to Mr.. Littleton's resolution
that Mr.. Knill was the fiUtest person pos
sible for Lord Mayor.
The chairman tried to avoid putting
the amendment, but was forced to do so
and it was carried by an overwhelming
majority, amid frantic cheers by tn
Knillites and howls of rage from th
Anti-Popery zealots.

CHICAGO, Oct. 20.-The Eastern man
can hardly appreciate the intense feeling
of local pride with which Chicago greets
her visitors.
Although only in it's fifty-siXth year as
a municipality, Chicago has become the
second city in population in the country,
and in all branches of progress is second
only to the metropolis Chicago itself

exhibit, not only of the dedication cere-
monies, but of the Exposition itself

will be universally conceded as the mar
vel of building operations of the century.

BILE pillars, were the Stars and Stripes in
profusien almost beyond the arithmeti-
clans art of calculating or guess work.
Twenty-Five boxes were occupied by
the Executives of States, commencing
with Governor Page, of Vermont, and
concluding with Gov. Markham, of Cali
fornia All of the Chief Executives were
accompanied either by their stats, or by
their respective families. Conspicuous
in the tier Of boxes were Governors Nc
Kinley, of Ohio, Boies, of Iowa, Peck, of
Wisconsin, and Boyd, of Nebraska.
The Vice President was escorted to a
position in the eastern corner of the hall
and the reception was at once inaugu-
rated. The guests passed over the floor
in procession, being first introduced to
the managers, then to the Committee Of
Arrangements next Co the patronesses,
and finally, after running this gauntlet,
to the Vice President and distinguished
guests.
The crush in the ballroom was some
thing terrible, and dancing was practi-
cally out of the question.
New Workers who were present here last
night drew sorrowful comparisons as they
gazed al their tattered garments with the
notable Centennial ball, when Ward Nc
Allister managed to make 1000 guests
comfortable in the Metropolitan Opera
House, and he announced that 200 was
the utmost limit of any successful ball.
At the conclusion of the reception and
which continued until nearly IL o'clock,
the Vice President was escorted TO the
loge on the immediate right of the stays
followed by the remainder of the distin-
guished guests.
Although Chicago did not provide any,
thing like the great parade of school
children at the Columbian celebration in
New York, public exercises OF some kind
were held in all the grammar and high
schools in the city and were well attended
by the parents of the little ones. The
programmes included addresses by the
professors and teachers, patriotic songs,
hosting of flags, recitations, etc.
Apparently the hotels are already as
full at they need be, There are crowds

But large as the crowd already on the

At times this morning the tide Of hui
manity poured itself out of the Union
and Grand Central depots as if it never
intended to stop.
When Gov Tuttle Of New Hampshire,
with his staff and party, reached the city,
carriages on hand we're barely sufficient
for the accommodation of the ladies, and
80 the Governor headed the procession on
foot to the Wellington.
There was a large crowd at the Union
station to extend a welcome to Gov. Nc
