TIE DRUG STORE CASES.

Maine has statute similar to ours
with regard to the payment of the
federal tax and it has been held consti-
tuional there, and unless the issue can
be made to turn on a fine legal point in
the fact that the phrascology of our
statute does not exactly comport with
that of the federal taxing act, there is
little doubt of the result in this state.
OF course the possession of the license
has its proper place as evidence in
prosecutions, because people are not
ordinarily buying them merely to look
at. But it does not fairly follow that
it should constitute proof of guilt be-
You'd a reasonable doubt. n--Brattle-

THE GRAND PARADE.

| Marshal G. w. Hooker and his efficient
! aids evolved order out of seemns chaos
| in Il remarkable manner and the monster
| parade, the greatest ever seen i'm the
State, started only Il few minutes after :
| o'clock, or practically on time. During
the hour devoted to the formation Of the
line the large reviewing stand in front OF
the capitol and the State House grounds
became filled with people Only an esti-
mate of the number of people in the city
can be given but it is believed that not
less than 10000 men, women and children
witnessed and took part in the parade.
At exactly eight minutes after Uciook
Admiral Dewey's carriage left the siding
on which the special train had been
placed on its arrival and he was driven
to Il point on lower State street, whore it
entered it's place in the column, which
was then partially formed. In the car
r1age, which was the only one in the great
parade, were seated Admiral George
Dewey, Gov. Edward G. Smith, Mayor
John Fl. Senter and Lieut.. Brumby.
The different organizations which were
to take part in the parade had been arriv-
Ing as the trains came from different
parts of the State and were 50 prompt in
getting their places that the line was
ready to move very nearly on time No
teams were allowed on State street, leaV-
ing it practically clear for the parade to
form upon. For hours before the time for
the column to move this and the neigh
boring thoroughfare were filled with gal
Looping marshals and aides intent on fimd-
ing the visiting organizations and setting
them to their respective places Crowds
OF people filled the walks, so that they
overlooked and drove pedestrians to The
middle of the street.
Whcn the line was formed en- State
street the head of the column was at the
lower end of the street and taking M the
line of marched the column passed from
the right to the left side of the tnorouyh-
fare so that each organization took It's
place in the line as the body preceding it
passed.
IN TINS way each man ia the parade was
abe to see each other man as they PASS
eel on the opposite side of the street. The
line OF march was then taken up and car
ried out in conformity with the published |
programme.
A GREAT OVATION
Never did popular hero receive more
hearty or distinguished homage than did !
Admiral Dewey along this triumphant
passage Crowds of people were massed
lpon the walks in every street reviewing
stands We're placed at every available
'oint along the line Of march, and these
we're we'll ,illed, while windows were as
'aluabe as had been food an hour before.
The progress of the admiral was marked
~ one continual round Of cheering and

applause Flags and handkcrchiefs flu
tered Il welcome from the hands of the
ladies and children while the men and
boys shouted themselves wel-nisl. dumb
in their enthusiasm. Admiral Dewey be-
gan by smiling then added the dolhns Of
his hat and soon found both in addition
TO rising and standing in tho carriage in
adequate to express his pleasure. FOR the
first time since coming to Vermont he
wore the full uniform OF his rank and
IN it boxed more like his photographs
than in civilian clothes.

ceve the admiral We're Senators Proc tor
and Ross, Congressman Powers and Circuit,
the judges of the supreme court, most Of
the State officials, eX"gOVernorS ana eX-
lieutenant governors, Gov. Smiths stan
and the State reception commit es.
shortly after 8 o'clock the head of the
column reached the State House and Ad-
miral Dewey with Gov Smith, Mayor SEN
ter and Lieut. Brumby left their carriage
and proceeded to the front of the stand,
their appearance being marked by an out
burst of cheers. Then came one of the
most difficult and important acts which
any one had to perform during the day.
The crowd, intent on getting c.ose TO the
admiral had pushed forward from the
steps and terraces until there was not an
inch of space in front of the reviewing
members of Gov. Smiths staff plead
with the multitude to fall back so that
the procession could pass, The people
wanted to be near Dewey and it was not
until the mounted police, who led the
column arrived that any sort of an
opening could be made. A space wide
enough to permit of the passage of the
various organizations was finally effec ed
without accident, although there We're
some narrow escapes from horses feet.
1t was 5:15 before the first of the mar
shals leading the parade swung around
the corner of the capitol, where they
were Immediately greeted by storm Of
applause. Close behind them We're the
cadets from Norwich University COM
