they are to go into solitary confinement for the
purpose of developing proficiency and avoid
ing derision
CALLS Tor pensions, from those who
went 10 Chickamauga, as members Of the
Vermont troops are being made and from
present indications there will be a large
number of applications filed before the
work has been completed. Lieutenant K.
j. Stratton, of Co. X, Bennington, is among
the number who have ma To- application,
his being through T. j. Deavitt of this city.
II has been understood from the tins that
the members of Company II came home on
a furlough that there would be some from
it's ranks that would ak the government to
pay them for disabilities sustained while
they we're in the service. All that has been
required to bring out applications here is
for some one to start the ball rolling-and
that has been done. The boys" should
have whatever liz their due.
IT is source of congratulation to the citizens
of the city of Montpelier that they gave theB
ton artists quartette grand reception L urs-
day evening on their appearance in the second
number of the Young Mems Christian Asso.
citation Star Course series. The opera house
well filled and before the first number,
a quartette selection, Come, Dorothy, Come"
had been fully rendered, everyone was in a
high state of enthusiasm and it intensified as
the concert progressed. Too much of a COM
mandatory nature can be said of the singing
of the quartette. In their solo and duet work
the high order prevailed and each member of
the company came in for storms of applause.
Part second of the program, "a Song Cycle, "
kept the large audience at high tension
throughout. Such a performance reflects
credit on its promoters and it should serve well
to draw large audiences to the remaining
six attractions in the course
The aggravating experience, (which the street
road company had Thursday night has caused
some of the wiseacres to exclaim L told you
so''-meaning. of course that the road can
not be operated in the winter season. 1t is fair
to state--and it is well understood-that the
fall of snow Thursday, had nothing whatever
to do with the stalling of the cars When Sup
erintendent Smith was seen yesterday after.
noon by a JOURNAL reporter he said 1.-The
trouble we encountered worse than ten
times the amount of snow and mud that was
on the track would have been. We could
have found and removed such a difficulty. II
bothered us to find the trouble that caused the
delay in traffic. Let the snow come We cant
take care of such occurrences as we had Thurs
day without suffering delay" Mr.. Smith
says the road will be operated every day dur
ing the winter and this is reassuring to a large
patronage AS was indicated in the JOURNAL
yesterday it is more than probable that al
extra feed line will be put in from this city t.
Middlesex. This improvement it is calculated
will make sure against reoccurrence like
that of Thursday night.

Conditions are such now that fear there
would not be sufficient demand for an cleo
trio road using coal for a power producer,
but with good waterfall such a thing is
likely to happen, aud l do not hesitate to
say tba, if it be found within reasonable
distance of the city, it will be an objective
for capital that is certain to come 10 this
point, il the islands are annexed / have

such a purpose, but am not sufficiently

pontment on the board of insane commits
sioners to succeed DR.. johnson Of Con-
cord, whose term is about to expire. The
appointment would be most fl tting and
appropriate one.
There is very little doubt but that the
next beard of railroad commissioners will
consist OF Hon. ID. j. Foster of Burlington,
Senator Watson of Hartford and j. ID.

only member Of the present board. The

down Of the joint resolution introduced in
the House, allowing the committee on

"Judge" PrOuty's Opinion.

Representative Webster OF Burke has
received the following letter from an old
friend and constituent, which is well worth
general perusal:
WEsTMoRE, Nov. 7th.
FRIEND WEBsTER:-I was pleased to find
your name where everybody's name be-
longs, voting against the fish hatchery
appropriation, When the far seeing men
of the Vermont Legislature propose to
reconstruct the laws of God and Nature in
the art of Matching fish, then the next thing
we may expect will be a change in course
of the sun and moon. The bullpout already
answer there" in the waters of Lake Will
loughby aud the expression Of his c0unte-
nance tells you palmer than words can
express that he is sent here by the Vermont
Legislature and he has come to stay, and
under the present rulings you will see fol-
lowing in his wake the dace, pumpkinseed
and perch, nice combination, which are
as sure to .ollow as hash after boiled vict-
nails. HARVEY PRoUTY.

If the Senators who are directly or indi-
rectly in the employ of corporations were
aware Of the rwhelming sentiment OF the
people for the passage of the mileage bill,
they would hesitate and perhaps reconsider
beford opposing it's passage. The Central
Vermont is apparently heartily in favor OF
the measure, 1t being In accordance with
their present practice. and the opposition
seemingly comes entirely from those who
rejoice in antagonizing the people This
advice is given in all seriousness 10 those
who would array themselves against the
public interests.

are two OF the largest buildings being

and the only handsome street IN the
town.

with 225 teams grading the new road

east He will have some of the hard.
est WORK on the line and Is prepared
for It. He is now unloading car OF
gun powder for use on the heavy work
There are ten camps OF graders be-
tween here and Stroud,
Chandler merchants are appreclat-
ing large trade from these graders
as most Of the money is spent right
here.
Parties are negotiating with Chsnd-
Ter for the construction OF an oil mi
and 1t is a sure thing that mill will
be built as soon as the road is.
Real estate in the city is changing
hands rapidly, and prices gradually
advancing. Every lot in the town has
now tome value. and Marvel avenue
lots are bringing fair prices and find
ready sales.
1t has often been said that Chandler
has the roughest site OF any city in the
territory, but tA!s fact will only aid in
:he making OF a very pretty town and
very progressive town, since vast
amount OF labor will be required TO
make its streets passsble and con.
venient.
The people OF the city who have
been hoping and praying for railroad
for six or seven years are highly elated
with present prospects and the we'll
founded hope that they will now have
way TO get out 81 the woods.
