" Judge Powers and the bounty"
is now the subject that bids fair to
draw out opinions thus far kept in
the background. The Judge in his
denial of the charges from the Rut-
land News says he voted against the
repeal of the bounty law and then in
the same breath goes on to say, in
substance, that when he voted
against its repeal he knew he was
doing wrong. There seems to be
something of an ENHANCEMENT there
somewhere.

A DISTINGUISHED OPINION.
Rutland News.1

In their haste to score a point
against Judge Powers the Page
papers intimated that he opposed
the act giving a bounty on Vermont
maple sugar, That act was passed
before Powers was elected to Con-
gress. He voted against its repeal
and also introduced and supported
bill placing a duty on Canada maple
sugar which came into direct COM
petition to our home product, and
destroyed the benefit that the bounty
was expected to afford our sugar

for his stewardship of the Districts
affairs for the past ten years, a little
explanation of his position on the
maple sugar question would beinter-
esting. AS we recall it, Powers
worked and voted in favor of repeal
ing the bounty on sugar, thus taking
from one to two cents per pound out
of the pockets of every sugar pro-
Queer in Vermont, on all the sugar
he has made in the past six or eight
years. Sugar makers in this vicinity
are asking for an explanation.

George Sanderson, an English min
ing engineer and capitalists agent,
now operating chiefly in Canada,
came from Montreal recently and
spent two days in examining the al
legged coal and iron deposits in Beth
ell. He expressed himself satisfied
of the presence of coal and arranged
with C. H. Wilder for an early begin
ming of mining operations. The only
question he believes to be the depth
of the strata and he says he will go
down 100 or 200 feet at least. He
took with him specimens of Lillieville
quartz for assay, and the report,
since received, indicates a good quail
ity of iron, The product would be
easily marketed, as the new railroad
runs within two miles of the mine and
the teaming would be down grade.

NO ABSURD CHARGES MADE AS YET.

of The News attempted to interview
him on some of the absurd charges
raised against him. The Judge evil
IDENTIFY is not worrying about such
little matters and proposes to give
all such charges attention in a job
lot.-Northheld News.
Far be it from our purpose to give
the public the impression that this
paper is making any charges against
the Congressman, least of all
absurd" ones. We have simply, in
good faith and for information, been
asking questions. And the Congress
man has been imparting some infor-
nation, of just what reliability the
constituency is to Judge. Here's the
way the st. Johnsbury Republican
views it:
Judge Powers has published an
other card This time he writes The
Burlington News that The Rutland
News has been misquoting his posi-
ton in regard to the Vermont maple
sugar interests. This is not our
fight and The Rutland News appears
to be able to do its own defending.
We can only say in passing that Con-
gresham Powers as he thus meets
his constituents face to face, here in
Vermont, and Congressman Powers
as he is quoted in the Congressional
Record, must be two different indi-
viduals. They don't talk alike. Car
it be new case DR.. Jekyll and MIR

There is certainly indication of a
slight difference of opinion, and as a

as frst-class evidence. Perhaps when
