Maj. Bishop has had unusual experience
in that line of work and probably few are so
well qualified to speak intelligently of it
as he. For the greater part of his life he
has been engaged in water ways, and is one
of the oldest and best known civil engineers
north of the Ohio river.
Commencing in 1850, he was fora number
Of years an assistant engineer for the Hud-
son River Railroad, and later held like posi-
tions with the Genesee Valley Canal New
York, and also the Des Moines River I'M
provement and Railroad Co.

COUNCIL PROCEEDINGS.

The city council met in regular session
last evening all members, except Mayor
Maev and Councilman Smith, being
present.
Il. =. Campbell was elected mayor pro.
tenn.
The chief business OF the session was
the consideration of the matter of the rail
way elevated roadway on River street
Constructing engineer Marion appeared
and, in view OF the objections to the
present grade made by property owners.
stated that, while the ordinance permit
ted the road to be built on a gradient of
fifty feet to the mile, the company was
willing, in order to leave good crossings,
to raise the grade to 80 feet per mile, and
provide proper crossings at all cross
streets. Considerable discussion ensued
but no definite action was taken in the
affair, so it is expected that the railroad
company will proceed with the construc
ton OF the road, leaving all matters OF
private damages ior future adjustment.
Graham & Kaufman filed an applca
ton for a retail liquor license.
Upon the subject OF the salaries of the
marshal, who is also night Waterman,
and the water commissioner, who also
, occupies Il dual position being street
commissioner as WE'LL there appeared to
be a unanimity Of opinion among tie
council that Marshal Pearson and Com
missioner Stein We're undergrad for the
amount of service required OF them. Both
officials declined to qualify and were i'm
medlately appointed special officers to
serve until further orders, and the attor-
ney was requested to draw an ordinance
providing for an increase of salary for
city marshal and night watch from $45 to
800, water and street commissioner from
S45 to $780, and city clerk from $l5 to S25
per month.
The new ordinance governing the water
works WAS passed without objection and
will appear in these columns next week.
Dig down to the cause CT your sickness,
if you want to get well and stay we'll.
Most likely it's indigestion. The irrita-
ting poisons of fermening, putrid food,
left in the stomach by indigestion, cause
headache, neuralgia, nervousness, dizzi-
ness, stomach-ache, nausea irritabilty,
and all the other we'll known symptoms
Of Indigestion.
| They also cause many pains and dis
orders which are often laid to other causes
and hence are not easily cured. But as
soon as the poisons are removed, all these
symptoms and disorders disappear, be-
cause there is nothing left to cause them.
Nothing succeeds in this like Shaker Di-
gestive Cordial, because it prevents the
undigested food from fermenting in the
stomach and helps the stomach to digest
its food.

Democratic Platform.

The Democrats of Windham county in
convention assembled at Newfane last
week adopted the following platform.
We, the Democrats of Windham county,
in convention assembled, reaffirm our allie
glance and answering devotion to the i'm
mortal principles enunciated by Jefferson
in the Declaration of Independence, and
inseparably interviewer into the Constitu-
ton Of the United States, and we look with
disfavor and distrust upon any departure
from these principles as dangerous to our
governmental institutions, contrary to the
teachings Of our forefathers aud to the SEN
timent Of all true patriots.
We srraign the Republican party for its
extravaganza and prodigality, for its
continued disregard CT the interests of the
people, and the scanda!ous conduct of its
officials in high office, whereby discredt
and disgrace have reflected upon the good
old Green Mountain state .ass-z.ss.s.-
We demand the repeal of the present
prohibitory law, as being unreasonable, in
efficient and useless for any worthy pur-
pose; and the enactment in its stead of q
local option high license law that will regu-
late and lessen the sale Of Intoxicating IL
quors, and advance the cause of temper
ance and good MOI ais, thereby ridding the
state of horde of blackmailers. who love
prohibition for the oppor, unity it offers
them tor corrupt pecuniary advantage.
We demand the revision of the laws per-
mitting the double taxation of mortga ages,
and the substitution of a just and equitable
method OF mortgage foreclosures tor the
antiquated and wrongful method now in use
in only one other state 10 the union.
We demand that the next legislature of
Vermont appoint state fire marshal tor
the establishment Of fire supervisors over
the state.
We demand the enactment of valued
policy law for the regulation of fire insur-
ance companies. We pledge our hearty
support to the candidates here this day
nominated.
