EVERY time Gov. LewelIing makes a
speech be loses friends The poor man
don't know how talk. He emphasizes
the wrong words. For instance, he was
talking the other day about how rail-
roads now spanned the earth; going on
ia a low monotone. he suddsnly shouted
out GLANDS OF STEEL" in voice that
startled all his hearers. A general litter
followed. There was no particular rea-
son for yelling Islands of STEEL" the
words and the sentence were unimp Or-
tant. But the governor thought he must
shout somewhere, SO he shouted there
This ridiculous incapacity for reachin z
a climax pervades all the governors ora
tory. 1t is painful to listen to him.

To the Editor Of the STATE JOURNAL:
In your paper of September l APP
peared an article headed, MAY Cause
Trouble" Now, Mr.. Editor. there Is not
the least danger of strike or any other
kind Of trouble by the Brotherhood Of
K. b. & B. NJ on the eastern division or
the Santa Fe. or anywhere else on the
Santa Fe for that matter, for there is
hardly such an organization as the r. b
g. b. VI. in existence. Your article says
that the brotherhood has a mem bership
of 1000 Now, that is q mistake, for
there have never been over $40 accord
ing to the grand organizers statement
Capital lodge No. IL does not now rep
resent the bridge men OF the eastern di-
vision. From a former mem bership Of
fifty it has dwindled down to about seven,
and all the rest of the lodges on the San
ia Fe are in much the same dx. The one
A r L. man who cannot get back to
work again, was discharged by his fore
man for Iaziness. and the rest Of the fore
men refuse TO take him on that account
Mr.. P. w. Sayre or any other officer, had
nothing to do with the matter
Your article further says that James
Il. Clark was going As a delegate to Lit
tls Rock, Ark That Is q mistake also,
that three delegates were elected by the
lodge to represent them, but they never
asked for passes and quietly withdrew
from the lodge.
Neither does the r ,ilroad Register
represent the Brotherhood; as that paper
has been turned into a Populist paper,
and its editor feeds at the public trough.
Hoping that you will allow US space for
the above in your valuable paper. we are
truly yours, JAMES II. CLARK,
Ex-(4eneral Foreman.

tages Over Ordinary Remedies.

a heavy, dull headache, located over
the brow, and accompanied by anguor,
chilliness, and a feeling of general dis
comfort, with distaste for food which
sometimes approaches to nausea, can
generally be completely removed by a
little granule of DR.. IIoward's Specific.
1t IS rarely necessary to take to exceed
two doses, and in most cases the effect of
this exceedingly small amount of medi-
inechas been simply wonderful. A person
who feels most miserable and refuses all
food, wishing only to be let alone, will
soon have a good appetite and resume
his usual cheerfulness.
This scientific specific has done more
to relieve the suffering caused by head
aches than any other known remedy.
Physicians of all schools endorse it, and
many of them have stated in the medical
journals that Its peculiar combination of
reliable laXatives and tOnics make it Tar
superior to the ordinary remedies.

THE CIRCUS.

The circus of Ringling Brothers, which
showed here on Wednesday, brought into
town as big a crowd as has been out in
dozen years. They began arriving car
ly in the morning and kept coming till
afternoon. 1t is estimated that there were
at least 5000 outsiders on hand during
the day, and these, with the townspeo-
pie, occupied about all the territory avail
able. 1t was characteristic circus
crowd. The hOrse-traders were hero, of
course, With their brOken-dOwn steeds,
and every baby within radius of ten
miles had to come. But it was a good
natured and orderly lot of people. The
fact that the village trustees issued form
al notice to supposed dealers in intoXi-
cants that they must shut shop and keep
shut may have had something to do with
the lack of drunkenness and disorder.
The parade at 10 o'clock was everything
that circus parade ought to be. The
horses, vehicles, elephants, camels and
all the rest of the paraphernalia were well
worth seeing, and there was plenty of it.
AS was the parade, so were the perform
ances in the afternoon and evening. No
feature of the show, either IN the menag-
erie or in the two circus rings. was poor
None who attended went away disap-
pointed. 1t was the general verdict that
the like excellence had never before been
seen in circus in Middlebury. The at
tendance at the afternoon performance
exceeded G000 and in the evening there
were about 2O0O out. A special train
from Bristol brought 100 persons for the
evening show.
The show travels in 36 cars of its own
Its people number about $50, while there
are nearly 100 more with the three adj
vertising cars. Everything about the
show is first-class. There are no fake
side shows or gambling attachments to it.,
and its men are quiet and well-behaved.
All in all, it seems to be an ideal thing of
its kind, and it deserves the large patron
