Gladness Comes

With better understanding of the
w transient nature of the many phys
ical ills, which vanish before proper eff
forts-gentle etforts-pleasant efforts
rightly directed. There is comfort in
the knowledge, that SO many forms Of
sickness are not due to any actual dis
ease, but simply to a constipated condi-
ton Of the system, which the pleasant
family laxative, Syrup of Figs, prompt
ly removes. That is why it is the only
remedy with millions of families, andis
everywhere esteemed so highly by all
who value good health. Its beneficial
effects are due to the fact, that it is the
one remedy. which promotes internal
cleanliness without facilitating the
organs on which it acts. 1t is therefore
all important, in order to get its bene-
fetal effects, to note when you pur-
chase, that you have the genuine arti-
Gle, which is manufactured by the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Co. only and sold by
all reputable druggists.
If in the enjoyment of good health,
and the system is regular, laXatives or
other remedies are then not needed. If
afflicted with any actual disease, one
may be commended to the most skillful
physicians, but if in need of a laxative,
one should have the best, and with the
well-informed everywhere, Syrup of
Figs stands highest and is most largely
used and gives most general satisfaction.

THE G. P. &V. is practically one OF

just interest in its prosperity. There
has been great deal of work done on
this road during the past year in the
way of betterments, involving the ex.

money. There have been stone culverts
and steel viaducts substituted for the
old timber trestles. The road has been

Much of the underhanded and repre-.
hensible work by which local candidates
were defeated in the recent campaign
was donelby men who have been the re.
cipients of honors and emoluments at
the hands of the Republican party in
the past. Without their aid the Democ.
racy could not have placed man in the
Court House. Many were deceived by
misrepresentation emanating from such
source. They thought these men were
still true Republicans, and were there.
fore more disposed to credit the false re.
ports they helped to circulate. 1t would
be we'll for all Republicans to beware of
these men in the future. Their only
ambition 10 to break down the local Re-
publican organization because they have
not been given perpetual lease on the
honors and emoluments. They should
be known and understood.

Our Organization.

The fight made by the Republican Ex.
ecutive and Central Committees this year
was by far the best and against the great
est odds of any campaign in this county
for many years.
The fusion Of Democrats, Populists
and Prohibitionists started out with q
majority as calculated by their own poll
of over 400. This majority was all lost
by the Democrats, and McKinley's ma.
joritv was 207, making Republican gain
on head of ticket of more than 600.
1t is true the Republican majority on
head Of ticket ia not so large as last two
or three years, but the situation was en-.
tirely different. Had it not been for the
fusion the Democrat ticket would have
been beaten 1000.
Then the Republican vote increased
A65 over the vote cest for Gov. Bushnell,
which was a large vote
This result was accomplished by a
superb organization, the equal of which
we have never known, carefully guard.

factory to our side as We could wish,
they certainly represent sad disappoint.
ment to the Popocratic combination,
who confidently expected to sweep
everything by several hundred major
ity. The Republicans had the fusion
forces to face, and our executive com.
mittee did an immense amount of hard
work, such a. can only be appreciated
by those who have been behind the
curtains. There were tons of literature
to distribute, thousands of letters to
write, and countless details Of campaign
management to look after. In all these
things the most careful judgment had
to be exercised. The burden upon the
chairman and secretary and their cleri.
cal assistants has been heavy and con.
tinual, often keeping them busy until
after midnight. And all of this, in the
regular Office work of the campaign.
Those who think it "soft snap" to be
an official, or even a member of the
county executive committee, are badly
deluded. 1t means q vast amount OF
unknown, unappreciated and thankless
work. While this is true of county, 1t
is also true in a broader scope OF the
State and National committees. The
public would almost be amazed could it
realize the gigantic tack Of placing the
issues OF a campaign before the people.
The great victories OF peace, like those
of war, are only achieved by heoric
exertion.
This has been especially true of the
campaign just closed. The Republicans
had expected to make their main fight
on the old tariff lines. But, when the
Democratic convention met at Chicago
and was captured by the Populists and
anarchists, not a word was said in their
platform about tariff. They had aban.
doned that field entirely, and we found
them panoplied in the glittering armor
of free silver coinage. They made a
grand showing. They trumpeted their
catching battle cries. They swept our
front, and captured not few. If the
decisive hour had come upon us then,
we might have gone down in desperate
defeat, meanwhile, earnest Republicans
were pleading "Where's our commit.
tee? Why don't they come to our help?"
For weeks the silver knights rode up
and down, and their dauntless mein and
fearless assertion seemed invincible.
And still the faithful Republicans kept
asking, "What's the matter with our
committee? Why don't they send us
the munitions of war ?"
Then we heard distant bugle, then
the strains of marshal music, then we
saw the banners rising over the hill,
then the column of a splendid organic.
alton OF veteran warriors wheeling into
line, and on they sweep, steady and
strong, driving the stubborn foe, inch by
inch, from every vantage.
And thus, was the victory won.
Though the verdict came from the sturdy
good sense of the common people, it was
the committees who put before them the
literature and the oratory of truth.
Neverlwas there campaign in which
the committees found more arduous
worksbefore them or in which their
duty was more courageously or faithful.

It will be many day before the peo.
pie OF Madison township will be able to
forgive themselves for allowing Judge j..
Frank Wilson to run 90 terribly behind
his ticket and to lose nearly three times
as many votes as would have elected
him. Madison township has never
asked for the election of candidate for

than Judge Wilson, and such shameful
treatment seems without explanation.

Three Men Badly Injured at the Wool
len Mill IN WinOOskI.

The woollen mill yard was the scene
Of serious accident last Thursday. A
temporary wooden structure had been
built between the boiler house and the
nov worsted mill in order to construct
an 6-inch wrought iron steam pipe
from the boiler house to the mill. The
pipe was being built in about 20-feet
lengths with screw couplings. The
workmen, seven in number, were up
on the staging and were busy joining
the last length on the outside OF the
mill, when, from some unknown cause,
the staging gave way and precipitated
the men to the ground below, about
Is feet, some OF them falling 30 feet,
there being little pitch near the mill.
When the staging gave way some Of
the men jumped and got out Of the
wreck with but slight injuries. When
they jumped, however, they let the
pipe fall and in falling it struck John
Desautels' foot and crushed it very
badly. He received injuries about the
head and probably internal injuries
Fred Parizo was thrown up against
the mill wall and the pipe length
which, with an elbow joint, weighed
about half ton, rolled upon his chest
and knocked his wind out, probably
internally injuring, him altho' he was
able to walk home. The next serious
ly hurt was Clarence Blish. He jumped
from the staging and when he struck
the ground twisted his right ankle and
dislocated it. He received cut on
his left arm and one on his ear, besides
a bruised head and severe shaking
up. The Others receiving slight in
juries were Edward Brunette and Fred
Bruyor. The rest got off with Sc
we're fright.

Bigamy Case at Rutland.

Clinton l.. Sherwood was arrested
At Rutland Sunday evening on war;
rant by virtue Of an information fiji d
by j. G. Jones in the county court.
The complainant was Nellie Z. Sher-
wood, who claims to be the wife OF
the prisoner. The charge against
Sherwood is bigamy. Clinton L.
Sherwood was married to Mrs. Matte
Z. Barney at West ltutland on the
Sth. Sherwood and his wife returned
Thursday to Rutland from their we'd
ding trip. On Friday a woman call
ing herself Mrs. Clinton l.. Sherwood
Of Newport, N. H., arrived in the city
and went to some friends. II appear
from her story that she married Sher-
wood August 18th, 1891, at Montpe-
lier. She afterwards learned that his
real name was not Sherwood but
William H. Strickland, who lived for
many years at Vergennes, and she
says that Strickland in consequence OF
some difficulty changed his name to
Sherwood. After marrying in 1891
he lived until quite recently at New
port with his wife, whose maiden
name was Nellie E. Barry. The
mother OF Mrs. Sherwood No. 2 fur
nished bail in the sum of 81 800 and
Sherwood was arraigned in the coun-
ty court at Rutland last week.

Another ministerial crisis in
Frame This has familiar sound.
1t i heard with some little irregu-
larity on an average Of once in nine
months. Years ago the French used
to 90 into revolutionary spasms once
in SO often. but when The present con-
stitution was framed in 1873 q pro
vision was wisely inserted by which
this propensity of the French 10 over
turn their government can be in
.lulged In without recourse to blood
shed. The presidents ministry was
made responsible to the French Con-
gress. Whenever the administration
did anything or proposed anything
not satisfactory to that body vote OF
swami of confidence" was passed and
the ministry had to step down and
make room for a new one. This
safety-yalve has doubtless been the
means of preserving the present form
Of government thus far. The crisis
now is somewhat different from any
that have preceded it The previous
ministry was dismissed by the Cham
Der OF Deputies, which corresponds
to our House Of Representatives
Premier Bourgeois then formed 8
ministry that has been and is sccepta-
BILE to the Deputies, but not SO to the
Senate which has just forced it out OF
office by refusing to vote the NADIA
gascar credits as long as it remained
in power. The Senate and Chamber
are opposed to each other and neither
will be satisfied with a ministry not
in accord with its own views. The
ministries have heretofore answered
to the Deputies and not TO the Senate,
but it is said that under the constitu-
ton the Senate has the same rights in
this respect as the popular branch.
The outcome will be watched with
interest.
