The meeting Of the commissioners

left.

The Majority Opinion.


the will of the majority of the people.
When any legal enactment fails to DO
this then ii is no longer safe to allow
such a law on the statute books of State
or nation. There seems to be 3 fear
among the good people of Vermont that
the ancient law dealing with the sale
and use of Intoxicating liquor in Yer
mont is in danger of repeal if the mem
bcrs of the legislature are elected on
the high license or local option platform.
WHY this alarm? DO the friends of the
law desire that il should remain in
optrltion if in fact it has lost whatever
power it once possessed? We think
not. If the enforcement of the law be-
comes the laughing stock of every
wide.awukc community of the State,
then is it not time that we changed the
law before another Charles lloyt pro-
duces another Temperance Town."
and before the liquor law has become
the laughing stock of the whole world !?
This paper has no desire to be under
stood as saying that the law is not the
best, or that it should give way to some
other provision, but the TELEGRAM does
assert that no law should be allowed to
be u,od as a club to make members of
the Legislature vote to sustain law
that has in certain localities outlived its
nsefulnt IS, or, rather, to put it in a
mider way, become out of fashion.
If majority of the people of Vermont
wish to keep that law on the books, the
TELEGRAM believes that it should be
allowed to be enforced. Whether a
majority of the people OF the State
are in favor of the present, or
some other law, we do not undertake
to say, but, on the other hand, the only
way to find this out is by giving the
people a chance TO express their opin-
ion by DIRECT vote. Give the people
this opportunity and then which ever
way the issue is decided, we shall at
least not be told ever time the Legls-
lalur1 is called together that we are
maintaining law that is not upheld by
the people.
With the record which Vermont has
always held as law abiding and sober
commonw ealth, why should the temper
ance people Of Vermont fear to let the
people express their opinion of the law.
The TELEGRAM is certain that the loose
way in which the liquor law has been
entorce, in this city has had much to do
with the present growing movement in
favor Of chtn@e in the law. When
the few unfortunate violators are made
the victims OF ccr.ain citizens and Il
majority Of The favored are allowed to
go scott free with never an effort made
to treat them rs the law provides, then
who can blame our people if they are
disgustcd with the present law. The
TELEGRAM might say more, but abuse
never vet won in an honest cause, so
what we would suggest is that the
people OF NvrMon! be given n c'lancc to
vote on the liquor question. We are
not advocating nigh license. We are
not, in this article at least, advocating
the present law, but simply chance is
wanted 10 show the expression of the
voter, on the question. DO the temper
ance people fear such vote? We
think they have no cause to have any
fears in thi, matter.

ANXIOUS TO DEPART.
Troops Ordered to Manila Are In
Hurry to Get Away.


San Francisco, Sept. 21.-The troops
just ordered to the Philippines are all
anxious to depart as soon as posslhe
and their wishes are likely to be graft
fed, for General Miller, who hopes to
head the expedition, is doing all he can
TO expedite their transportation.
The numerical strength ordered to the
orient is as follows: First Tennessee
regiment, 1885; Twentieth Kansas regi-
ment, 1901; Ffty-first Iowa regiment,
l,25l; First Washington regiment 1,3l5;
recruits, Second Oregon regiment, 800;
battalion Twenty-third regiment, Unit
ed States army, 400; total force, $3.50.
All of the troops named except the
Washington regiment have been at
tached to the Philippine expeditionary
forces. The Washington men have be-
onged to the department Of California.
Although the Sixth and Seventh Cal
ifornia regiments are anxious to see
active service, there seems to be little
prospect of their being added to the ex-
peditionnry force. In case no general
should he assigned to this expedition
the command will devolve upon Colonel
John II. Wholly of the First Washing
ston by reason Of prior service in the
regular army, both having mustered in
Their commands on May II.
General Miller has made application
by telegraph to the chief of ordnance
at Washington for enough Krag Jor-
gensen rifles to arm the four regimen S
that are go ng with the expedition. The
Wyoming battery of light artillery will
be retained here. The Eighth Utah,
now doing garrison duty, probably will
be left u1disturbed.
The steamer Australia has arrived
in port from Hawaii. General Mer-
Ram. commander of the department of
California, who has been in Honolulu,
was one of the passengers. He was
accompanied on the voyage by Lieuten-
ants Graves and Bennett of his staff.
Everything was qustR Honolulu when
the steamer left.
The people We're jubilant over the
annexation and We're interesting them
selves in IN effort to make the govern
ment Of the islands similar to that of
the United states. The Officers Of the
Australia say that the Arizona, with
troops for Manila, sailed on the 18th
inst, and the Scandal, with troops and
treasure, was to leave on Tuesday, the
18th.
The Australia brought up five sick
soldiers. Among them were Leuten-
ants Wallace and Teny of the First
New York volunteers and three pri-
Yates from the Minnesota, North Da-
kota and Montana regiments. Lieu
tenant Hunt of the Fourteenth regular
infantry was also a passenger. He was
taken III in Honolulu with typhoid fe
yer, and after he was convalescent was
granted sick leave.

Travel From Town to Town on TELL
of Missing GirIs-ThOuEht In new
Haven the victim May
Have Lived There.

Bridgeport, Sept. q. - 1t is evident
that the police are thoroughly at sea
regarding any solution of the mystery
Of Yellow mill pond. Superintendent
Birmingham, Captain Arnold and De-
tective Cronan indirectly admit that
they have not secured q single definite
Flew on which to base promising IN
vestiga ton. All three of these men
have been out Of town at various times
within the last 4S hours and have gone
from New Haven to Waterbury with
out finding anything as a reward OF
their work. Nothing remains Of all the
leads which they picked up last week
save &c ST." which is Of the blindsst
The identif1cations since the false one
made by Frank w. Perkins amount to
nothing. A travelling man, Van Keuren,
who was at the morgue, had only the
shadowy memory of woman seen Two
years ago to guide him, and the latest
informal ton with regard to his identl-
ication is that he thought that at the
Tine he saw her the woman was not far
from 20 years old.
A dispatch from the New Haven po-
lice seys that they are working on
possible clew to the identity of the dead
woman. They are trying to identity
her as Mary Bradford or Craddoek,
who was employed as waitress In
New Haven,
Buried In Pottcr's Field.
She has disappeared, and as her APP
pearance tailed somewhat with the d.
scription of the body found in Yellow
mill pond, it is feared that the New
Haven girl met with foul play. The
head Is still kept for identification at
the morgue, but the body has hcen bur-
led in Potter's field. Considerable In
dignation is stirring Bridgeport over
the scant ceremony which attended the
disposal of the body. No clergyman
was present at the burial.
A letter has been found here which
shows that DR.. Nancy Guilford is not at
odds with her husband, who is now In
state prison. as had been asserted ssv-
aral times. The letter was written by
the husband, who is known as DR.. GIL
He advi-ed his wife in the letter con"
,erninS the sale of some pronerty, and
expressed wishes for her welfare.
Just where DR.. Guilford is now no
)ne here pretands to know exactly I'M
less it be her lawyer. Some persons,
believing dispatches from Montreal, say
that she Is there. Others say she has
sailed for Liverpool. A few say that
she is not far away and that she will
come here If the police assure her that
she will not be arrested on mere suspi-,
zion. The police apparently have nes
evidence that would warrant the arrest
Of any one, and they practically say
hat they are not concerning themselves
about Dr. Guilfcrd's movements
