Barre evening telegram. (Barre, Vt.) 1898-19??, 1898-11-16

Once more the quiet lovers of good
law, morality and good order have had
it brought forcibly to their minds that
there is carried on within their midst
the most horrible traffic of human souls
that the present age knows anything a.
bout. Even Nero would have blushed
with shame had there existed within his
precincts such revelrous orgies as have
already made notorious certain section
of the Granite City. Will the good poo
pie of Barre in the face of these plain
facts continue to allow a pillar OF a
church to support such infamy Be rca-
sonable good friends. Spend less time
in following up some poor devil who
has become powerless to control his pro-
pcnsity for sin and get at the seat of the
wrong by putting your shoulders to the
wheel in a good henest effort to wipe
out from the city of Barre that which
brings shudde1 to all who have any
intimation of the condition of affairs on
the "Barre Bowery", When you have
accomplished this the chances are that
you will find there will be smaller
number of arrests for intUxitation, court
records will be cleaner. more debts will
be paid and the morality of the city will
be raised to living standard.

SYNDICATE A DODGE.
Washington Believes Plan tn Fur-
chase Philippines IL Spanish Game.

Washington Believes Plan tn Fur-
chase Philippines Is Spanish Game.
Washington, Nov. 1s.-The officials OF
the state department do not expect that
Wednesdays meeting of the peace COM
missioners in Paris will be the last. On
the other hand 1t is not expected that
the Spaniards will come in with an I'M
conditional acceptance Of our last de-
mand. Still, substantial progress may
be regarded as having been achieved If
the Spaniards show disposition to dis
cuss in any phase the cession of the
Philippines to the United States. even in
connection with a money indemnity.
The amount of that indemnity. after
ALL 1t is believed, will be the principal
point of difference between the two
sides.
Inquiry has been made into the char
acter Of the projectors of the remarka-
BILE syndicate scheme for the purchase
Of the Philippines for the sum of $780,,
100000. The result has been to show
that they are irresponsible parties. and
1t Is scarcely to be doubted that the
project has been put forward as
means Of enhancing the price which the
Spaniards may demand for the relin-
quishment of the Philippines.
In other words. the Spaniards might
claim justification for demanding a sum
as large as S20o,00o0O0 If they could
point to the fact that syndicate stood
ready to pay double that price for the
islands. However, this has not led to
any modification Of the American de-
mands. as far as can be learned, and it
Is probable that several sessions of the
joint commission will be consumed in
haggling over the mere amount of mon
ey to be paid over on account of the
Philippines
