In light of the recent charges made
by the Rutland Herald, that the de-
mand for Page was from newspapers
and not from voters, a Record man
interviewed a dozen representative
men in this village. Two of these men
were democrats and the rest republi-
cans. There were three farmers, four
business men, three professional men
and two others who own property in
the village. Every one of these men
expressed the opinion that the district
had sent Powers. to Congress long
enough. Ten declared for Page and
the other two were noncommittal.
They apparently had heard nothing
of Foster. This would indicate that
Pages chance were mighty bright in
this part of the state. Page is in the
fight to the finish and he's going to win.

General Fitzhugh Lee has made an
elaborate report on prevailing condi-
tions il the territory in Cuba under
his Jurisdiction, and takes strong
grounds for an independent govern
ment for the Cubans under an Ameri
can protec torate. General Lee begins
his report by saying that conditions in
Havana and Pinar del Rio provinces
are making rapid progress toward a
state of peace, good order and pros
perity.
Turning to recommendations, he
urges the taking of a census as first
step toward the establishment of self
government. He thinks that the next
step should be the careful considera
tion of the question of suffrage for
the Cubans. He takes for granted
that there are to be elections by the
natives and he points out the import
ance of wise action in determining
the qualifications of voters. General
Lee recommends the independent re-
publican government, with presi
dent, vice president and congress.
He would have that government es-
tablished soon and advises the holding
of general election for the selection
of the officers. He says the United
States should keep strict supervis-
ion over Cuba until it's republican
government is completed and firmly
established F,Van q ftar ra1iavino the
Cubans in part from American pro-
lection, he would have United States
troops maintained in the island to
protect Americans and other aliens in
the enjoyment of their personal and
property rights.

Thomas B. Reed has sent his resigna-
ton as representative Of the First
Congressional district of Maine to the
Governor of that state. Mr.. Reed will
now make his home in New York,
where he has entered law firm. 1t
is doubtful if another man will be
found to preside over the House of
Representative in the mannar in
which Reed has ruled, but his rules
which were fought so hard for time
have come to be accepted by nearly
all and will now be maintained by
whoever may occupy the chair. AL
though Reed has retired from the
national congress he will not be lost
sight of nor forgotten; he is too big
man for this and he will be likely to
be heard from at some future day

accident at Phoenix last week. He
bad gone there to purchase some
alfalfa fed cattle for the Clifton mar

on a borrowed saddle, the stirrup

helping TO cut out the purchase cattle.

little more whiskey than he could con-

The sheriff Of Eddy county Mac
Stewart, seems TO be orc OF the kind
OF sheriiTs you read about, but which
have been mighty scarce in this Sec
tion Of the world for some time.
That is to say he is one of the sheriffs
that 90 out and bring in bad men.
Recently he arrested a gang OF horse
thieves, n Of whom proved to be a
much wanted Texas murderer, who
was turned over TO Texas, tried, and
sent TO the penitentiary. Last week
he went out after a couple of
suspicious characters. He got into a
camp, near where they we're supposed
TO be, at night. In the morning be
waited for them to come in. Only one
Of the two came to the camp. lie was
ordered to throw up his hands, but be-
fore doing so he emptied his six
shooter, wounding Deputy Thomas
and the owner OF the camp, a man
named Lusk. When the bad man
had emptied his gan he threw up his
hands. Sheriff Stewart held his gun
on him and a deputy disarmed him
aud took of bis belt. Th.aklng all
was owe Sheriff Stewart approached
the man, and was met by a jolt in the
jaw that would have knocked out an
ordinary man, but Stewart closed in
and caressed the top OF the outlaws
head with his sixshoUter, until he was
unconscious, and then hog tied him.
The companion appeared at the top
Of a little rise some distance away and
the sheriff waved his lat at him to
come 10, but he concluded not TO.
AS Stewart had two wounded men and
a prisoner to care for he did not follow
the other man. The arrested man
gave his name as John Thompson.
He appears to be about tweuty-seven
years old, six feet, weighs 115 pounds,
has a sandy complexion and a short
sandy beard. He has some fresh bull
let wounds on his body having been
shot through three times, quite lately,
as the wounds are fresh, probably by
small calibre steel bullets. 1t is
thought he is one of the gang which
recently held up the Colorado South
ern trian near Folsom, and Of the gang
which had a fight with Marshal For
aker's posse, when Sam Ketchum
was killed and the other two got away.
Eddy county is to be congratulated on
having such a sheriff.

There is no greater irony than a recon-

whose circumstances make change Of
climate impossible. How many a suf-

the flight Of the south-seeking birds, and

lungs to the climate instead Of fitting the
climate to the lungs. That Is what has

ing the clogged and poisonous conditions
favorable to disease, that the whole body
