Orleans County monitor. [volume] (Barton, Vt.) 1872-1953, 1897-10-18

After all is said about our duty to
others, the fact remains that our first
and greatest duty is to ourselves.
The tree that does not grow, drawing
it's substance and strength from where
it may, will never give shade to the
wayfarer nor fruit to the hungry. 1t
is well to help others, but it is pre-
sumption to offer to give what one
has not. The blind cannot lead the
blind. Too many of us are so anxious
TO be "doing something for the world"
that we neglect the very necessary
self culture that must precede all work
for others.

Jean Ingel ow came of clever family
and when she and her brothers and
sisters were children they got up a
little magazine of their own, the type
being set by schoolfellows of her
brothers at the house of their clergy
man schoolmaster, who owned a
small printing machine, says the
WomGn's Journal. AS a child she
used also to write poems on the in
side of the shutters of her bedroom
window, of all odd places, and, after
they were one day accidentally dis
covered by her mother, some of them
found their way into print. A pecu-
liar feature about Miss Ingelow's life
was that she never entered a theater
and an equally remarkable one about
herself was that she could remember
events in her life from the time she
was II months old.

overthrown than this world ever saw,
and the discipline got here may on

grander achievements in greater spheres,

they prayed and suffered and triumph

A young Irishman in want of FIVE

A young Irishman in want of a FIVE
pound note wrote to his uncle as fol-
lows: "Dear Uncle-If you could see
how I blush for shame while 1 am
writing you would pity me. Do you
know why? Because have to ask you
for few pounds, and do not know
how to express myself. 1t is impossi-
BILE for me to tell you. Iprefer to die.
1 send you this by messenger, who
will wait for an answer. Believe me,
my dear uncle, your most obedient
nephew. p. S. Overcome with
shame for what / have written, have
been running after the messenger in
order to take the letter from him, but
I Ecannot catch him. Heaven grant
that something may happen to stop
him, or that my letter may get lost"
The uncle was naturally touched, but
was equal to the emergency. He re-
piled as follows: "My dear Jack-Con-
sole yourself, and blush no longer.
Providence has heard your prayers.
The messenger lost your letter. Your
affectionate uncle

The Rose OF Jericho.

Among the numerous pretty tradi-
tions relating to flowers, may be men,
toned the popular legend of the far
famed rose Of Jericho, which Is re-
garded with superstitious reverence in
the East from the story of it's having
blossomed at the moment when the
Lord was born, and continued to do SO
on each anniversary of this event.
Hence, the flower has been credited
with special properties, and in some
parts of tnc continent it is popularity
designated rhe Rose Of the Madonna"
and its presence generally considered
of propitious influence when children
were born. According to another vari
alton of the same legend, the rose o.
Jericho has been called st. Mary's
rose, because, when Joseph and Mary
were taking their flight into Egypt
one Of these flowers sprang up to mark
every spot where they rested.

The Douglas County Contest.

In the matter of unscating the re-
publican members of the house who
represent Douglas county, the fusion.
lists are very much divided. The ma
jority members of the committee on
privileges and elections submitted a
report which they had drawn up, ia
vorable to unseating the republicans
from this county, and the whole af-
ternoon was spent in discussion of the
report. Very warm speeches were
made, which, toward evening. became
decidedly spirited. The caucus ad-
journed without action, divided in
opinion. 1t is almost certain that a
majority and a minority report will be
sent to the house. Those of the con
mittee who constitute the minority are
sheldon of Dawes and Eager of Sew
ard, of the majority members, and
Rouse Of Hall and Byram of Burt, Of
the republicans. The presentation o.
these reports will probably precipitat'
a fight and may result in the house go
ing into the evidence.

IT. X. 62, by Mr.. Rich, to authorize
publication of notices of application for
liquor licenses of any paper of general
circulation was the next bill TO be
considered, 1t also authorizes the same
power that grants a license to author
lie a transfer of the same to another
place or person. Mr.. Clark of Lancas-
ter opposed this. and pending the con-
troversy the committee arose and the
house took n recess until 9 p. IN.
At the after recess session the house
took up bills on third reading.
The clerk read house roll No. 8, the
bill.
Mr.. Hull Of Harlan stated that after
close scrutiny OF the bill he had found
nm error in the engrossed copy. The
word three in the original copy had
been copied five" lie moved that
the bill be recommitted to the commit
tee of the whole for correction. A very
bitter and extended debate was had on
the motion, but after several motions
to take action thereon Immediately had
been voted down, the bill was recon-
mitted to the committee Of the whole
for correction.
Mr.. Jenkins moved to go into com
mittee of the whole to consider house
roll No. 5 Immediately. The motion
did not prevail. and IN motion Of Mr..
Sheldon Of Dawes the regular order OF
business was taken up.
After disposing Of reports on the
Douglas county contests the house re-
ceived reports from standing commit
tees.
The library committee favored house
roll No. Ia, to provide for travelling
Libraries. The report was adopted and
the bill went on general file.

issuance of state warrants receivable
for taxes, was reported by the major
ity of the committee on banks and cur
rcncy with the recommendation that

Tho Recnnyass Bill.

The ~fusionists in the house are short
of the required two-thirds vote which
is necessary for the passage of the bill
to recount the vote on the constitution
al amendment relating to supreme
Judges. There are two fusion men,
bers sick, and unable to attend the
sessions. 1t is thought that even
il the house should pass h bill that
it is reasonably certain not to get
through the senate, as it is reported
that nine fusion senators are opposed
to- the measure in its present form.
The senat committee on constitutions
al amendments has appointed n sub
committee to draft a bill having for
its object the submission of the returns
to the supreme court for a decision on
the question Of the majority necessary
for the adoption of "a constitutional
amendment. Two Of the committee
will insist on a recount of the ballots
as at first proposed, and they will pre-.
sent u bill with that end in view in
case the present bill is not passed.
Judge Reese in his talk before the
committee, gave it as his opinion hat n
majority of all votes cast at the
election is necessary for adop-
ton. lie said this rule was
laid down in the Maxwell opin-
ion and also in the opinion of Judge
Cant in the Lancaster county case. re-
ported in the Sixth Nebraska court re-
port. Judge Reese said he might be
somewhat biased rs he was a member
of the constitutional convention and re-
membered distinctly that discussion OF
this subject showed a prevailing senti-
ment in opposition to permitting a mi
nority to change the constitution. The
same argument is found in Judge Max
wells opinion on which those ~favoring
a recount base all their hopes.

The fact that many bills have been
held back when the rules require them
to be reported back four days after be-

OF the various committees more than
four days. After a short debate the
motion was lost.
