Judge Wheeler has held in the case
of Deputy Collector Weeks that oui
Vermont courts have no authority Il
compel a federal officer to disclose in
formation that comes to him in an off.
cial way regarding infringements OF
the prohibitory law. The state will
have to execute its own law without
assistance from Uncle Sam and without
interfering with his power of licensing
the traffic. 1t is a peculiar thing that
while the federal government compels
all dealers in intoXicants to pay IL
cense fee the state of Vermont practi-
cally forbids anyone, except town liz
nor agents, taking out such license
by making the possession of it prima
facie evidence of a violation of the
state law. The state has paramount
authority, however, in regulating the
it being essentially a police
power which each state can settle ac-
cording to the desires of its own peo-
pie.

MRS. CLEVELAND'S WORDS.
The Wife of Conductor Cleveland and
Her Experience.
A Remarkable Result Facts
Of Much Interest
How the Mortality Rate May Be
Lessened.

With scores Of people suffering from
rheumatism, neuralgia and kindred
diseases, it is evident that the follow
ing letter, which was published once
before in this paper, did not have their
reading.
1t certainly is convincing, and If its
advice were followed by more, the
mortality rate would be materially
| lessened.
Since this letter was printed, cor
respondent of this paper has inyesti-
gated the facts thoroughly and finds
that they are vouchcd for by Mrs.
Cleveland's neighbors and friends.
Her husband is Conductor Cleveland,
who has been with the Central Yer-
mont II. Il. for twenty wears.
The letter is published in full as ne.
ceiged, and strikingly vcrilies the saw
ing, Truth is stranger than fiction.
Mr.. EpIToR:

zion TO make, and one that feel it nv

For three years ! have been able 10
walk but very iiitle,and it was seldom
that ! could sit mp over half day at
"a time. None of the physicians seemed
10 understand my case, some calling
it neuralgia or rheumatism, while
Others said that my suflerings were
caused by ulcers. Anyway, none Of
them helped me, and after spending
hundreds of dollars, became utterly
discouraged.
| finally went TO New York, where
for two months | was under the care
of one of the most eminent physicians
of that city. But my sickness and
helplessness were not bettcled. Ny
husband was talking TO friend, Mr..
w. II. Greene, station agent at Bur-
lington, about my unfortunate condi-
tion and Mr.. Greene strongly urged
BIN 10 have me try Paiue's celery
compound. ! used three bottles, and
with 50 much benefit that continued
its use. Today | walked down town,
half mile or more. did some shop
ping, called upon a friend, and then
walked home again. am doing all
my homework, something have not
done before ia gears.
NV restoration To health Is solely
due TO Painc's celery compound. IL
is this medicine which has changed
me from suffering, helpless woman
TO my present condition of healih and
strength. hope you will publish ;lli,

bic the knowl dgG Of a means that
will bring health and happiness to
homes where sickness and suffering
make life burden.

The approaching November elections
in several of the states will be watched
with interest, principally because they
will afford a reflection of public opin-
ion as to the present administration.
1t has been an almost inyariable rule
that in elections succeeding the tri-
umph of any party the pendulum
swings the other way, but in view OF
the improved general conditions and
the admitted success of the Mckinley
administration it is confidently eN-
pected that the rule will be broken and
the tide will not turn toward the DEM
oeracy. The principal interest centers
in Ohio, Maryland and New York. In
Ohio, Hanna is striving for seat in
the Senate to succeed himself making
the contest squarely on the silver and
gold issue. There is every prospect of
his success. In Maryland both parties
are split, each in rebellion to the do
minion of bossism rs eXemplilied by
German, Democrat, and Wellington,
Republican. The Republicans have
turned down Wellington and ought to
win, but may not, as the state is nor
mally Democratic. There is little
doubt Of the election of the Republican
state ticket in New York, the leading
office to be filed being that of chief
justice. The Democrats will make a
clean sweep in Virginia, the Republic
cans not even having the courage to
put up ticket. In Kentucky, where
only minor state offices are to be filed,
the Democrats will also probably win.
There is no question ofRepublican sue
cess in Iowa. The fight in Nebraska
is n pretty one, with odds fayoring the
Observation-Disclosures Republican
fusion Everything is silver in Colo
RADIO, of course. Quay and anti-Quay
is the only issue in Pennsylvania, the
Democrats not being "in it," AIassa-
chusetts will give Wolcott, Republican,
Il rousing majority. The hottest bit of
political battlefield is in New York
city, where the silver issue cuts little
figure, Henry George being the only
candidate for mayor who stands on the
Chicago Democratic platform-and he
wabbles on silver somewhat.

The fair-minded editor ofthe Review
of Reviews finds that the blame for the
recent mining troubles that eliminated
in the Latimer tragedy is primarily
with the mine owners, who oppressed
the native American miners until they
could endure it no longer and then
brought in horde of foreign pauper
labofers to supplant them, who in turn,
were being mercilessly ground under
heel until they too revolted, when
they were shot down by deputies

! 1t Is apparent thus early that one oil
the mistakes of our last legislative ses.
sion was the making of an open deer
season. 1t was conceived with the
best OF intentions. For years the deer
had been allowed to propagate, until,
to judge from the complaint made by
farmers in some sections, the state was
about to be overrun by vast herds of
these destructive animals. 1t was
therefore considered that the time had
arrived when it would be safe to re-
move the laws protecting arm for a
period of one month each wear and
