NEWSPAPER COURTESY"

In all his twenty odd years experience
in the newspaper business in Vermont
the managing ecitor of the TELEGRAM
cannot recall more unfair or uni ust at
tack upon himself than that published in
the Times of Saturday under the above
head.
In our own and in behalf of the COM
pany that has owned the TELEGRAM
since October 3, we emphatically deny
any responsibility for the despatch in
question. 1t was han ded to Mr.. Whit
taker after working hours. We never
saw it, and knew nothing about it until
Friday afternoon.
The TELEGRAM derived no benefit
from it, either directly or indirectly. In
fact as the TELEGRAM was not issued
Thursday, Dewey Day, it copied the ar
tcle from the Free Press and printed il
twenty four hours after The Times had
used the substance of the same article.
MIR. WhIaker's statement in another
column fully covers the matter and the
people of this city can be trusted TO
Judge Justly as to the truth of the two
versions of the incident. We believe
his statement.
We came to Barre and took large
interest in the Barre Newspaper Co. be-
cause we desired to locate here, and had
been trying to get here in an honorable
way, for the past six wears. After Il
careful investigation of the field we
were satisfied that there was room here
for two papers, if not now, then III the
Immediate future. We rave shown our
faith i'll Barre by so doing. We be-
lieve that the city will grow as rapidly
in the future as in the past and that the
TELEGRAM. if clean, np-to-date news
paper, AS we intend it shall be, will
grow and prosper with the city.
There is no reason why tne news
paper business should not be conducted
on the same honorable basis rs the dry
goods or any other business. That it
can be SO conducted we know from eX-
perlence in ST. Johnshury and Burling-
ton, where the rivalry between the
papers is as sharp as here. In the for
mer place we succeeded i'll ending long
and bitter fight between the two papers,
that mad financially ruined one and
seriously injured the other. In bo'h
places we were able to maintain friend
" business relations with our compeii'
tors. We came to Barre desiring 10 do
the same. That W 'sf lave not succeeded 4, ID ID
the article in the iihi.e shows. Ii II is
impossible to do here wha, was done in
those places ii will be the fault Of the
puhlish of the Times.
We decline absolutely to be made q
party to an o d personal feud between
the publisher of the rines and the for
mer publisher Of this paper.

r~ous RaiIrORd Traffic.

Chicago. Oct. 16.-Never before in the
history of the western railroads has the
General traffic been greater than it is at
the nresent time. The handling of freight
alone is bringing more money into the
Golfers of the various lines than did the
entire business in the "hard times years.
and the passenger business is better win
many roads than was that OF the autumn
,,,onths of the Worlds fair. Everywhere
tho c,v for more cars is going up, and
syervwhcre shippers are obliged to keep
IN line and patronze the railroads at the
ro,lroads' convenience. All available roll
ing stock is being utilized, and stu M the
roads @ nre obliged to refuse much traffic.
IT it's is said that never before in the history
of railroad operation has there been a
greater demand for freight cars than at
this time. And the traffic continues TO
grow greater.
