Parker Pretends Being Crazy.

A radical change has come over the demeanor of Parker, the condemned murderer now in jail awaiting the de- cision of the supreme court on his appeal. For weeks he was quite morose and quiet bordering on sullenness at times, and this has changed now to feigning of insanity. Last night he is said to have made the county jail ring with echoes of his yells, apparently in line with other actions of feigned insan- ity. He goes about his cell and the corridor of the jail pretending to be picking up pins and other objects. It is expected that decision will be rem dered in his case next week by the supreme court. rt.-.Journal-Miner.

and is so weak today that he can scarcely raise his head. The doctors think he will recover.
 The origin of the fire is unknown, but it is supposed to have been from a defective tiue in the kitchen. The estimated loss to the building and fur niture could not be ascertaine6. It was insured for $4, 300. but it is certain that the loss will greatly exceed this amount.
 The firemen responded promptly to the alarm and did excellent service, saving the front part of the building from becoming total loss. The great est damage in the front part of the house was confined to the second and third floors, the furniture on the first floor being but little damaged by the fire.-JOurnal- Miner.

Election Stops State Cases.

EDITOR TELEGRAM,-I am informed
that the candidate of the Silver Democ-
racy of this city, who is at present city
attorney, appeared in one Of the local
courts this morning rs the prosecuting
officer in case where a resident of
Barre was charged with larceny. The
respondent, so l am told, was there de-
manding trial, but the city attorney said
that owing to the election on Tuesday
he was not able to try it because of the
event which is to occur tomorrow. l
understand the warrant ON which the
respondent was arrested was issued by
the city attorney Saturday night. Here
is a citizen of our city compelled togive
bail for his appearance in court at some
distant day, just because the prosecuting
officer is looking after votes for another
office. l am also informed that other
warrants have not been issued owing to
the near approach of election. No won
der that Mr.. lIcrsey writes and talks as
he does. Would we have our prisoners
tried if the city attorney was elected
representative? Would he not issue
warrants anu then have cases continued
until the legislature adjourned. Mr..
Barney would not be in this predica-
ment for there might be any acting city
Judge in his absence. So unless the
city attorney is to resign his present
position our criminal cases may be
waiting a long time before final DISPOSE
tion shOnld. he he srnt to MOntpelier as
our representative. DO the citizens
desire any such condition of affairs ?
Certainty not. Then vote for Judge
Barney, and let the city. attorney have
time enough to try the men arrested for
crime. -..~ .. OBSERVER.

Company E Returns.

Nearly half the population Of the city
congregated at Depot Square Sunday
morning to welcome home the soldiers
who went from this city May 9th. 1t
was expected that they would not ar
rive before noon SO their arrival at II
O'Clock was somewhat of surprise and
consequently the crowd to greet them
was not as large as it otherwise would
have been.
Their arrival was very quiet one
Each man carried his blanket in roll
and their haversacks, guns and other
equipments were left behind, having
been all turned in to the ordnance de-
partment.
b. The company was formed in front OF
the cars by Sergeant Austin and then
turned over to Captain Badger, who led
them to the Armory. The company
shows n great improvement in its man
ner of drill from what it was when the
boys went away. A vast difference
could be seen even in their marching
the short distance to the Armory.
AT the Armory Captain Badger an
nounced to them that they could wear
either their uniforms or citizens clothes
as they see fit during the time they are
at home.
Three members of the company, Pri
Yates McKellow, Harry Jones, and H..
Bowick We're left at camp as detail
for guard.
The boys brought with them young
dark complexioned gentleman by the
name of "Walter'' from the south and
he is attracting good deal of attention.

CITY REPRESENTATIVE
Whom Shall We Elect?

Tomorrow we shall vote for Repre-
sentative to represent us in the legisla-
ture. Let us send broad minded, hon
est and capable man; II man of intlu-
tncc; q man that will be in touch with
the majority of the House; man who
will be placed on important committees
before whom all matter pertaining to
our city must come; man who can Sc
cure such amendments to our Charter
as it demands; man of the people, not
above them; a man who can take the
initiation when the question of all ques-
tions, "Shall the State Of Vermont pur-
chase and own the Central Vermont II.
R'?" comes before the legislature this
fall. A great movement is on foot to
accomplish it, candidates are already
pledged to favor it, Whom shall we
send?
Is free silver free, ,-Swazey the manp
lie has not been with us long enough to
know the wants of our city. He voted
for the first time in our city only two
years ago; he is a fifteen miuute man :;
he came from the home of the Populist
and Free Sllvertcs.
He is master of their false doctrines :;
he was nominated by free silver demo-
Gratis, Word was sent around that "no
gold democrat need apply" Ther turn
ell down DR.. for Justice of the
Peace, who was abs sent in the service of
his country for "Old Glory, just be-
cause he would not sell his birthright
for mess of silver pottage. What in
tlucnce will silver democrat have in a
Legislature where 90 per cent are rcpub-
licans? They would call him The "Barrc
joke lie will get no important posi-
ton on any committee.
viii the majority consider his effort?
The Citizens of Vermont will look upon
Il Free Silver Democrat as IN anarchist.
If he should ask for an amendment to
onr charter he couldn't get it; they
would pass him by. What a strange
sight it would be. A lone Free Silver,
Free - democrat amongst three or four
hundred Republicans. Harvey Hersey
is Just like him. both Free Silver Popu
listic IIowlcrs. with no greater or less
influence. If either one of them was
elected and took his seat in the House
he would be like a lone CCdtish in
Heaven, just as useful and ornamental
but a cod nevertheless.
If YOU elect Walter E. Barney you
will elect a good Republican, one who
will stand, act and draw with him the
majority, one who will be on the most
important committees, one who can Sc
cure such amendments to our charter as
are necessary, man who is in favor OF
low taxes, a man who is in favor OF
amending our city charter to limit our
tax rate, man who has always work
ed for the interests of our city, a man
who has been with us for long time,
a man who is known throughout the
state, a man who will have great influ-
ence with his fellow members. A Re-
publican can secure greater favor from
a Republican body than Free Silver,
Free - Democrat.
So let us, Republicans, stand to-
gether. The glorious record OF our
party ought to compel every Republican
TO vote for the regular nominee OF the
Republican party. We settled all our
differences at the caucus
We must fight the common enemy
now. Signed, "Do we".

Help Your City BY Voting

EDITOR OF TELEGRAM The Repub
lican City Committee. through your
paper, desire to call the attention of
the Republicans of onr City to the fact
that according to the number of votes
east for the candidate for Governor to-
morrow, by the republican party, will
he apportioncd the number of delegates
to the District. State and County Con-
vcntion, and also to attend the convention
to nominate delegates to attend the
National Convention called to nominate
candidate for President. AT the county
convention Barre had seventeen dele
rates, and Montpelier, with three thou
sand less population, had nineteen
delegates, and if every republican voter
will 90 to the polls and vote the State
ticket there is no reason why we cannot
have larger number of delegates than
last year. If the republicans OF the City
of Barre desire that our City be power
in the State, Congressional, and County
Convention it is their duty TO 90 to the
polls and vote the republican ticket
straight. Heretofore Il great many OF
the republicans of our City have neglec-
ted to vote the republican State ticket.
because they thought it was all right
"couldnt help but being elected, no
danger of defeat, consequently did not
vote. The result was that our vote for
governor fell off and the number of our
delegates accordingly, therefore,, the
Republican City Committee request that
every republican voter vo'e the State,
County, Congressional and City ticket
straight.

Democrats Of Barre.

The election tomorrow is the most i'm.
portant for MANY years,
The candidate of the Democratic
party is personally what is called an all
round good fellow, and no great objcc-
tion should be made against him person
ally. He is Sound on the Democratic
Chicago platform and on the free and
unlimited coinage of silver at ratio of
lG to l. With all these good qualities,
yet there is good reason why Mr..
Swascy should be defeated and why the
Democrats should support the indepen-
dent candidate, Harvey Hersey. The
defeat of Swasey would mean the defeat
of the gangs whose crooked tactics and
midnight meetings in places whose pro-
prietors were lately prosecuted by the
Democratic candidate in our city court.
90 Consistency Il GU art Jewel !"
If Swasey is elected these midnight
gangs will be in position to dictate
and woe be to those who will oppose
them. On the other hand, if Swasey is
defeated 1t will take many years for
Them to get back to their present posi-
tion, and we hope they shall never lower
the Democratic standard so low as to be
obliged to hurl their official stink pots
as have been done in the late campaign
for mayor.
Yesterday the pastor of st. Monica
Church notified his congregation that if
the law did not give him protection
from disturbances by evil doers in the
vicinity of his church he would resign
his pastorate at once. He has made
complaint several times before, but to
no avail.
Place Hersey in the proper position
and all will have the same rights before
the law regardless as to whether they
have one leg or two legs or even three,
if they count the limit of the law.
You may say llersey cannot be elect
ed, that this is a,trick to elect Barney.
Not so. You can depend that no trade
or alliance will be made with either
party. As we are certain to hold the
balance of power, either of the old par
ties must come to us in order to save it,
self from defeat by the other.
