Bennington semi-weekly banner. (Bennington, Vt.) 1894-1902, 1895-07-12

Mr.. EDIToR:-I read in last Fridays
BANNER, column one, page five, a Re
port of the Executive Committee of the
Citizens League" By whom? Where?
Which? Does the BANNER expect to
make people believe that was a sure
enough report? Now a report would have
been signed by the committee reporting,
wouldn't it? Any other course would be
an act of cowardice, wouldn't il? No,
Mr.. BANNER man, you must be trying to
guy the Citizens League, and we advise
you to quit right off. That was fake
report, certain, and you should apollo
gize to somebody and give us a report
with somebody behind it.
Do you think the League would be
foolish enough to report that they had
employed detectives to find out whether
rum was being sold by the drink in this
place or not-foolish enough to report
that detectives had been hired to find
out matters of common knowledge?
Well, now, here's another! Lectures
wanted to educate people up to the evils
of the rum business! Are not the evils
plain enough to everybody without lee
lures to prove the matter? Besides, are
not our preachers on pay to sharpen up
the moral sense of this place? If they
can't lecture the folks into a sense of
duty in regard to whiskey, who can? No
sir, the Citizens League may be timid
but they are not fools! That's fake
report. Ex-LEAGUER.

BROOKLYN, Iowa, July 7th, 1870.
Editor Of Banner DEAR SIR: Having
again cast anchor and come to rest in a
new home, feel that 1 would like to
have the BANNER follow me, so 1 will
give you a rambling sketch of crops and
country. The chinch bugs are quite bad,
taking the wheat where there is any; other
wise they start in the barley. l found
one man who had just cut his barley and
had plowed a ditch between there and
his oats to keep the bugs from crossing
into the latter. He says that it has
proved to be effective and that as soon
as he cuts the oats, which are beginning
to ripen, he will protect his corn by a
similar ditch. Another remedy is, to
SOW salt in the grain fields where the
bugs have begun their ranges. There
is scarcely good grass crop that have
passed on my route from Illinois.
Out this way they have a better pros
pect than in the Eastern border. This
is little more than 100 miles from the
Father of Waters. The country is beau.
tifully varied and undulating and this
village of some 200 inhabitants is snug
ly nestled in the valleys and along the
hill sides which are abundantly wooded
with artificial groves, which consist
largely of maple, willow and elm. The
abundant use of drain tile and perhaps
other causes have resulted in making it
unpleasantly dry in many sections, so the

News and Notes.

An epidemic in a French military hos
pital, which was attributed to the use of
American canned meats. has been found
TO be tie result of defective drainage.
The disease was complicated with lock-
jaw, which is more apt to be caused by
, the venerable horses served up for beef
in Paris and Berlin than by any food
prepared in this country.
-EX-Gov. Campbell of Ohio must al
so be callad jingo by the Democrats.

party of prominent Democrats who
have the independence to say what they
think about the Cleveland foreign policy.

The question of National Negro Con-

orable recommendation. The matter is
now before the committee ON Ceremon-

This, one of the last verses ever writ
ten by Robert Louis Stevenson, is in ref
erence to the portrait of himself, which
is given to the public with his verse for
the first time in the July Cosmopolitan.
The lines might have come from the pen
of Burns, and are inimitable in their way.
The portrait was declared by Stevenson
himself to be the best ever painted of
him. In the same number of the Co.'S
mopOlitan Rudyard Kipling tells an
Indian story, TO which Remington adds
charming illustrations; Mrs. Burton
Harrison makes serious study of New
York society in THE Myth of the Four
Hundred" and Kate Douglas Wiggin
contributes a story of one of the most
delightful of Welch retreats. The Cos
mopolitan was with this number reduced
to 10 cents per copy, and in consequence,
notwithstanding its large edition, it was
''Out of print" on the third day of pub
lication.

Governor Atkinson, in his message to
the Georgia legislature, gives some in
teresting facts as to the ownership OF
property by Georgia negroes. Among
other things he states that in Georgia
in 1880 the negroes returned $5,764,293
worth of property for taxation This
wear the amount of property they re-
turned was s12,941 ,230. In 1893 they re-
turned property to the amount of about
s15 600 900. The falling off between 1893
and 1895 does not indicate that they
have taken a step backward in the mat
ter of accommodating property. 1t only
means that during the hard times they
thought they were poorer, and hence
did not return their property at as high
a valuation.-Columbia Is. c. Regis

a Huge Bible 236 Years Old

Mr.. Thos. 8 Baker. Of Clifton Forge,
owns the Bible noticed as follows by the
Clifton Forge Review:
"a Bible in two volumes, the first
volume weighing 2asl pounds, and the
second volume weighing equally as
much, is pretty weighty affair. Yet
OF such weight is q Bible, the first
volume Of which was sent to the Re-
view office few days ago for examina-
ton and notice. The covers OF the
volumes are 1873 by 10 inches, and each
book Is nearly inchos in thickness.
The text Is that OF the so called "Ac-
cepted Version" or King James trans
lation, its publication being authorized
and sanctioned at a conference held BY
King James II. OF England and VI OF
Scotlsnd) at Hampton Court In 1904,
the first year after his accession to the
throne, and first published in 1911.
This particular edition of the Bible, ae
the colophon, an inscription on the Last
page OF the second volume, shows, was
printed by John Field. printer to the
Universitie Of Cambridge, Ammo Dom,
1852" 236 years ago."
