Hardly.
Raymond has always been mark
for the voters, aud justly so. In 1889
the Republicans nominated him for
City Treasurer, and the nomination of
this man swept them from power al
intrcnched at the City Hall and In the
County Building.
Standing as he does for Alger In this
campaign, the Republican soldiers and
their friends will make mark of Ray
mond.
He has never raised his hand TO do a
patriotic act since the war commenced.
He has kept out Of town for four
months, and only returns 10 treat him

he calls the workers" TO steamboat

He has no use for the real workers

With this load on their ticket, how

Raymond will not get one OF the fifty |
thousand Democrats who voted for Nc |
Kinley In Chicago.
Not one.
JUST deduct that number from the Re- |
publican column and see where you are
at
Then take off the soldiers and their
friends, and take another look.
Why. Raymond Is beaten now. The
problem Is to save the rest OF the
ticket There Is no use In talking
about It's being business mans cam.

Although at this date the vote on the
prohibition question in Canada can only
be guessed at, yet it seems probable
that the Vermont system is the choice Of
the people by large majority. The
vote for and against prohibition has been
much larger than was anticipated and
shows that the people of the Dominion
are deeply interested in this vital ques-
ton. If a prohibitory law is enacted it
is to be hoped that the wise Legislators
will carefully consider its every clause
and stop the loopholes which are char
acteristic of our own laws on this SUBJ
jcct. If the majority Of the people want
prohibition give them prohibition in its
strictest sense. Then and only then can
the merits of the two systems be fairly
contrasted.

Blow - Futile Spanish
Night Attacks.

Washington, Oct. /. - The report OF
Major General Wesley Merritt of his
operations about Manila has been made
public at the war department. 1t is
dated on board the transport China,
Aug. 81. After giving briefly the story
of his embarkation and arrival at Ma
nila and the disposition of the troops
there he tells how General Greene's bril-
gade advanced from the position where
he found 1t encamped. He praises the
courage and endurance OF the American
soldiers and continues:
The Spanish, observing this activity on
our part, made q very sharp attack WIN
infantry and artillery on the night Of
July 81. The behavior of our troops dur
ing this night attack was all that could
be desired, and l have, in cablegrams to
the war department. taken occasion to
commend by name those who deserve
special mention for good conduct In the
affair." Our position was extended and
STRENGTHENED after this and resisted sue
cessfully repeated night attacks, our
forces suffering. however. considerable
loss in wounded and killed, while the
losses Of the enemy. owing to the dark
ness, could not be ascertained.
The strain Of the night fighting and the
heavy details for outpost duty made it
imperative to re-enforce General Greene's
troops with General MacArthur's brigade
which had arrived in transports on the
31st of July. The difficulties of this OPP
Grafton can hardly be overestimated The
transports were at anchor off Cavite, five
miles from point on the beach where
It was desired to disembark the men.

shortly after the entry of our troops into
Malate a white flag was displayed on the
walls whereupon Lieutenant Colonel
A. Whittier United States volunteers, OF
my staff, and Lieutenant Brumby, United

the captain general.
The report continues at great length
to detail the generals work after thu

Accompanying the report are mum

correspondence between General Mer

One of the many Indications that our
country is rapidly increasing in pros
perity is seen in the great influx of stu
dents to all the colleges in the country.
Every one of them reports this year IL
larger entering class than ever before.
The various summer resorts during the
past season have all reaped large profits
while during the previous year they be-
came almost bankrupt through lack of
patronage. People will not spend
money for Injuries unless they are
prosperous and everything goes to show
that the present situation and the out
look for the future is highly satisfactory.
Barre has never since the first derrick
was raised above her granite hills, had
II brighter prospect for the future than
it has today, and our people can scarcely
imagine. what the future has in store for
them. The probability is that with the
continuation Of the present rapid in
crease in business Barre will in a few
short years be able to boast that she is
the largest city in Vermont.
