The REVIEW will not mention names
but it gives an ex ample of what neigh
bors quarrels sometimes lead to. Two
neighbors had a we'll supposedly on the
lot line. They used it in common, but
finally some trouble arose about it's
use and o man thought he would
build a well of his own. Now as the
well was on the line he argued that the
brick on his side of the well certainly
belonged to him SO he hired a man to
take out his half. When neighbor No.
2 found his well spoiled by the taking
out of half the brick he was wrath in
deed. ae called in the surveyor and
it was found that the lot line was not
where it was supposed to be, but five
feet farther over. No. 2's lot therefore
included all the well, part of the ground
on which No. rs barn is standing and
up to, and including two of his cellar
steps. Neighbor Nc. i had to have the
bricks replaced and is now busy moving
his barn and fixing some way to get in
to his cellar. We do not know the
merits of the original quarrel and we
hope we know enough to keep out of
other peoples Observation-Disclosures but
we would suggest that such things
ought to be avoided and that at any
rate it is always best to be sure who
owned that first brick last.

The Charter Oak Republican comes
out in an editorial favoring the voting
Of a tax toward the erection of a new
court house. It says in part as follows:
"Bonds could be issued at a low rate,
and one couldsbe built next year, but
why pay interest at all? Why not vote
on the question of a tax at the coming
general election and let the farmers and
merchants pay in this tax, now while
times are good, and when times grow
short and work grows scarce and wages
run low, be ready with cash to do a
cash business and do q job worthy our
fair estate? By 1902 we believe we can
be ready to build a $75, 900 building and
pay for it and have no regrets to hang
over us OF our children. Gentlemen,
we rise to move you that, at the No
vember election, we proceed to vote for
tax for the purpose of erecting a new
court house, to cost not less than $75,-
900, the money to be raised before the
contract is let. We would like to hear
q second to this motion from a few
farmers, who pay not less than 5000 in
taxes each year. Gentlemen, this your
business. What do you say?"

SHAW AT ST. LOUIS.

AS will be noticed in our news
columns Gov. Shaw was not afraid to
beard the democratic lion in his denfisat
st. Louis this week. AS the governor
says the conference was called not
through honest motives but as a piece
of demagoguery. The governors Of:
Missouri and Texas made long speeches
against the s'octopers'' and prescribed
free trade and free silver as the reme-
dies. Governor Shaw did not take time
to answer at length, it was not neces-
sary. Like Old Abe, by one simple
illustration he destroyed the whole
fabric of the enemy's argument, he
said. Yes free trade and free silver
would kill every trust IN the country
just as a fire in a wheat field would des-
troy canadian thistles, but 1 notice
from experience that the pest will
spring up again whenever the condi-
tions are favorable for a crop of wheat.
This is q statement of the case in a
nut shell. When under democratic
rule times were SO bad that capital
would not engage in any kind of bust
ness, now times are so good that CAPT.
tai is eagerly employed in every sort of
undertaking. Both conditions have
their evils, but for our part we find the
evils Of prosperity much easier to bear
than the evils of adversely. If a man
gets $l.OO per day and flour is ST.. 0 per
sack the days work pays for just one
sack of flour. If under better times
the mar gets Sl.75 per day and flour
advances to $1.25 per sack the laborer
is still fifty cents a head on the trans.
action. Again. if times are so bad, as
they were under the democratic ad-
ministration. if a man has no employ
ment, flour at fifty cents or twenty-five
cents is as inaccessible as il it were a
hundred dollars per sack.

ST. LOUIS, Sept. 22.-After two days
Of speechmaking the governors, attor-

tives who have been holding a confer
ence here on the invitation Of Governor
Sayers Of Texas adopted resolutions out
lining the legislation needed to control
the so-called trusts and combines and
adjourned sine die.
The recommendations embodied were
agreed to after q long session Of the
committee IN resolutions. So widely
divergent were the views presented for
its consideration that it twas after mid
night when the committee was able to
arrive at any conclusion.
In presenting the report Of the COM
mittee on resolutions, Governor Nc
Millin said he was aware Of the fact
that trusts and combinations in restraint
Of trade are in a degree dependable upon
federal, state or municipal governments
for their continuance. He believed it
was incumbent upon the national, state
and municipal governments to restrain
the operations Of those trusts and COM
binations.
The resolutions favor "the enactment
and enforcement both by the several
states and the nation Of legislation that
shall adequately and fully define as
crimes any attempted monopolization or
restraint of trade in any line Of indus
trial activity, with provisions for ade-
quate punishment, both Of the individ-

BOSTON, Sept. 22.-The riotous scenes
and the bitter fights between the two
factions of Democrats in this state
which characterized the all-night ses-'
sion in Music hall here in 1896 and that
ut Worcester the following year. were
renewed with even greater bitterness at
the convention of the state democracy
in Mechanics hall yesterday. There
was hardly a moment after the speeches
of the temporary and permanent pre-
siding officers were concluded, when
there was quiet and harmony in any de-
gree. AT times the entire delegation
was upon its feet, members standing on
chairs, shouting in heat of passion some
denunciatory remark at the chairman,
or the person who was endeavoring to
speak.
At this time it seemed as though even
the force of 100 policemen in the hall
would be of no avail, so imprisoned
were those on the floor, and the climax
came when, at the request Of the chair
man, the captain of police appeared on
oho pAotUlolIA tbAu pASICcO LIS LULU U0

chilly remove him from the platform,
had he not subsidized and allowed the
chairman to address and calm the ex-
cited delegates. The cause of the tu-
multi, which ragged for nearly two hours.
was the question before the body ac-
cepting the action of the state commit
tee in presenting a list Of state delegates
to the national convention. It was
claimed by those who opposed the idea
that it was against all precedent and
robbed the various districts Of their
constitutional rights. The personalities
which were INDUCED in were directed
as much against Congressman Ftzger-
aid as against Mr.. Williams, the party
leader, and hard names were called on
both sides. The final result of all the
confusion was the overwhelming pas
sage of every motion and report that
was made by the state committee and
the election Of national convention dele
gates, headed by Robert Treat Paine,
Jr., and John H. Mack. The platform
indorses the principles of the last ma
tional convention and opposes the pol
icy of the Mckinley administration in
the Philippines.

was nominated for governor by acclae

pants, and an eye for meanness. At
the age of Is he is devil in print

newspaper, at the head of every enter
prise calculated to improve the town
or enrich the business thereof; at 80
he is an emaciated and worn-out man,
with holes in his pocket and bald
head; at the age of SO he is a corpse
in cheap coffin, and his only resources
left behind are two cases of long primer
type, Washington handpress and Il

subscribers, who line up and march
past the coffin, saying: He was a pub

How the Old "America" Won
the Cup.

The America sailed for Havre and
arrived there early in August, 1851.
She rapidly fitted up for the race and
then proceeded to Cowes. The visitor
arrived on dark night, and it must
have been an interesting moment when
the dawn showed her to the great fleet
OF English boats full of yachtsmen
straining their eyes to size up the
stranger. The Yankee craft was about
as different from an English yacht as
could be imagined, with her great beam
and shallow hull, while the typical
English cutter of the period was OF the
"plank-on-e variety. She soon
showed her mettle by defeating one of
fastest boats in a brush into Cowes. and
this achievement made it more difficult
for her to arrange her races. AT last,
however, she was allowed to sail under
the regulations of the Royal Yacht
Squadron. In those days no allowances
were mada tor tonnage, sail area, or
anything else. All the boats, big or
little, started off, and the one that came
in first won. Eighteen Yachts were
entered, ranging from the little cutter
Aurora, of AZ tons, to the three-masted
schooner Brilliant. of 392 tons, the
America being two-masted schooner
of ITO tons. Fifteen Of the yachts
started. The America did not get of
among the first, but before a third Of
the distance was traversed she had as
sumed the lead, and when the breeze
freshened up she gained so decidedly
that it was seen long before the end
that the race was undoubtedly hers.
barring an accident. Just as Q big
storm was settling down the Yankee
