Our SUMMER VIsIToRs.

Victor 1. Spear of Braintree, who is
employed by the State to collect statis-
tics, says that Vermont received last year
S150,000 or more from her summer
tourists. This is good for start, but it
should be increased rapidly to Sl,OOO,OOO
or S2,OOO,00O. The peculiar attractions
of the State for driving or coaching be-
gin to be acknowledged, and there is
reason to believe that Vermont will be-
come in time as noted as are the highlands
of Scotland for these purposes. Good
roads, a healthy, invigorating atmos-
phere and an unusual variety of attrac-
tive scenery, together with the beauty OF
the towns and the excellence of many ol
the hotels, are surely and permanently
leading to this result.

VILLAGE AFFAIRS.

The village trustees did a land-oflice
business at their regular meeting Tues
day evening. They first took up the
electric lighting question, and after a
somewhat prOtracted negotiation with
the electric company settled it upon the
basis Of "a lights for Sl250 year, the
lights to be run every dark night till
midnight. The number of lights is one
less than under the old arrangement,
and the light near the Pierce House,
which in the opinion of the trustees is
least needed. will be discontinued. The
trustees also voted to enforce the viii
lage ordinance imposing fine of 81 on
a person who throws waste paper In
the streets, and it will be applied not
only to business men and hOuseholders
who use the streets as dumping place
for refuse, but also to those who read
their mail on the streets and throw en-
velOpes and newspaper wrappers away
as they walk along. Landlord Sargent
of the Logan House was hired to
sprinkle, at the public expense, Main
street from the post office to the water
ing trough In front of the Phelps place
and also Merchants Row as far as the
stand-pipe near Kidder's shop. He is
to thoroughly wet down this territory
every evening, if necessary. Arrange
ments were made TO procure the services
of an expert to lay concrete walk from
the store of Beckwith 81 Co. to the
graded school building.

CURRENT COMMENT.

Vermont is in IA fair way to be better rep
resented in congress than ever before. Both
the illustrious legislators who honor Vermont
by consenting to remain in Washington as
the accredited representatives OF the state
have surrendered a testimonial and photo
graph to Il patent medicine house, and the
fact is being heralded that both these
gentlemen are now in first class physical con-
ditlon Bellows Falls Times.
The Mckinley movement in Vermont was
undeniably a bona fde rising of the people
The party leaders, with hardly any exception,
were tor Reed. The Maine man had also
many honest supporters among the rank-and.
file. But the great majority who howled
themselves hoarse Tor the Little Corporal
and trod under foot all opposition were the
plain, ordinary Republican voters who, thor
oughly in earnest, would be heard in spite
OF the bosses.-I West Randolph Herald.
