TEN DA VS. At THE FAIR.
CONTINUED

In our articles thus far we have not
mentioned the exhibits made by YER
mont. Of course our little state at
best could do but little in comparison
with the world, but what she has
shown compares we'll with that Of any
other state or country. Those who
examined the section in the Liberal
Arts building in which the Fairbankses
Of ST. Johnsbury showed their scales,
were interested, both on account Of
the exhibits themselves, and the fact
that the scales have won distinction
for the little Green Mountain state.
A large area is occupied with scales,
and the visitor is interested both IN
the scales as pieces Of fine mechanism
and in their variety, capacity, and
adaptability to the uses required.
III size they run all the way from the
monster scale that will weigh ship
or railway car, to one SO finely ad-
iusted that an inconceivable weight
will change the balance. Scales for
use in the laboratory, in the office of
the pharmacist; scales for weighing
the most precious metals Or costly
stones; scales so rugged that they will
stand the hard usage Of the miner or
the coal dealer; scales to be used out
of doors, where they may be carried by
the cotton planter to weigh his cotton
cattle; scales that are SO beautifully
finished that they will adorn the drug
gist's counter, scales ad libitum. We
see in this exhibit this useful piece Of
mechanism that was carried up to
the very highest state of perfection
and convenience, ,and no other exhibit
in the line began to compare with it ssn
size or excellence, ,and no other exhib
tier expected to win against the Fair
hanks scale, which has been triumph
ant in every exposition the world has
ever held.
There was one scale which attracted
attention from the fact that it was
one of the very first ones made after
the scale had been perfected by Thad-
deus Fairbanks. This was just the or
binary, simple, platform scale that ev-
ery man of fifty years saw as long ago
as he can remember. The old speci
men had seen about fifty years of SER
vice. and has done deal of business
at the Fair. There is one thing in
this scale mechanism, whether it is a
due to the thought of the inventor, or
whether it came about in the nature
and philosophy of things, we know

Tt is declared that there is no course
open to the Union Pacific railroad but
to go into the hands of receiver.
The earnings thus far this year have
fallen off over 81, 600, 900 as compared
with those during the corresponding
period last year. Moreover, heavy
interest charges had to be met. Now,
instead of needed improvements be-
ing postponed and the road being
skinned to get money with which to
pay the interest charges, the net earn
ings will be applied to the mainte-
nance of the property. The situation
confronting the road next year, how
ever will be still more interesting.

notes, now amounting to 81, $4,000

the United States becomes due.
Ex-President Harrison continues to
make the same happy little speeches
which marked his term of office. Be
fore the national board Of the expo
sition at Chicago the other day, he
said: "Perhaps am something of a
crank on the subject of love for the
flag and the United States, but hope
not. I am particularly pleased with
what our own exhibitors have done,
with the showing they make in COM
petition with their foreign rivals IN all
classes. While our country has not
excelled in all things, it has kept IN
toe front of the march. I am not in
sympathy with the foreign notion, ap-
parently very popular, of worshipping
all things foreign, just because they
are foreign. Let us adhere to the
teachings of our forefathers, and not
disregard the customs OF our own
country and follow blindly in the wake
of others. -

SUCCESSFUL RALLY.

The exercises began by President Nc
Csfffey addressing few words OF well

as Ch usman of the meeting. Mr.. Nc

lsting tho45 pres ent on the fact that the
cause OF te mperaLce had Still active sup
porters In IeBtrsi Fills, aud ones too
who we're willing t. maze sacrifices foc
the success OF the movement.
Rev. II. +. KinBerney was presented as
the frs. speaker, and for Tn hour h.
spoke conviDcingly OF the necessity OF
total abstinence, enliyening the audi
ence by many apt illusions to the meet
ing OF certain society in tie Second
Ward which, he SAID, was sick and
burial society. He saiu 1t Sss no doubt
true because 1t was organized littie over
already, whereas st. Joscpn's temperance
Society was organized almost 20 years and
his had only three funerals in all that
time.
What is the reason CT III Why because
at every meeting OF the sick and burial
society are cosumed three or four kegs Of
lager, ana after they leave the hall the
poor dupe, who work hard, have to 20 to
some Of lhe stores OF the political leaders
and add some whiskey, and going out In
to the night air, catch pneumonia, and
away they go; they can't no saved. He
spoke Of the liquor phase of the Second
Ward fight ana said that he thought
something would drop over there next
Tuesday night--probaDly 1t would be a
"hogsnead."
There were also excellent addresses by
Councilman O'Briep, Rev. Jc hn +. Lynch,
President Of the Union, the latter saying
that the temperance men OF Woonsocket
would support Pothier for Mayor In
preference to Pond.
During the evening there were songs by
X. J. Casey, Harry Leonard and Mrs. Me-
Hale, Prof. Demers being at the piano.

be used for dormitory purposes and as the
home for the Sisters and teachers. The
stimated cost Is between $4,000 and
