Gov. Dillingham; says that he never
knew of fraudulent sale Of oleomar-
garine in the state under the law of
1884. No. ss. This Of itself shows
that the law met no practical condi,
tion of affairs, and this view is fully
established by the absolute repeal OF
the law a little later as wholly worth
less. The farmers care nothing about
this dead law. What they want is a
tax on oleomargarine such as will stop
it's fraudulent sale as butter. Grout
is on record for tax from the first.

with the situation to see the
danger. We can hardly think it pos.
sible that the people will vote to ex-
change our present satisfactory condi-
tion under Mckinley and republican
administration for Bryan and Bryan
anism and what will surely follow.
There is surely danger unless we are
we'll scared in time.
We Lave had but little outside
help in the way Of speakers, but the
issues have been as ably discussed by
our local speakers as they could be by
outsiders. If we have stood without
help it has made it all the more in
cumbent upon us to do our full duty
and make it sure that every voter
who In his heart is hostile to
Organism gives expression to that
hostility in the only effective way,
by voting the republican state tick
ct. Let all committees give their
entire time to the work from now
out. But committees cannot take
the place of individual effort. Let
every man be committee and a
soldier enlisted for this campaign.
Begin now to make sure that every
voter for the republican ticket will be
at the polls, and follow it up until
every vote is cast. Then will we send
out greeting that will carry Joy to
every republican heart in the land
and exert an untold influence for the
election OF Mckinley and Roosevelt
in November.
With an abiding faith that the re-
publicans of Vermont will do theil
full duty on the first Tuesday OF

CONDITION OF CROPS.
New England as Compiled by the o..
s. Department of Agriculture.

Boston, Mass Aug. 29.-The gen.
elal absence Of precipitation for the
week would not have been so severely
felt had there been an average degree
of cloudiness. Clear skies, however,
combined with the excessive heat of
the past three days have caused the
blackberries, peaches, apples and
plums to ripen .prematurely. Corn
has suffered but little from the dry
weather. The heavy rains OF the
week preceding have apparently been
sufficient for it's present growth.
Grass is very poor. In portions of
the three northern states grasshoppers
are running pasturage. Several re-
ports state that wells and streams
are again low and that pastures have
completely failed. The week has
been auspicious for the harvesting of
wheat, oats, barley and Hungarian
grass in Maine, New Hampshire and
Vermont. Fall blowing has bee
stopped and unless rains fall soon au-
tumn seeding will be delayed.
GRASS Portions of Maine and Con-
necticut send the most discouraging
reports on the condition of pasture
lands. Several state that the stock
get no grass whatever, and are fed al
together from graneries. R'wen is
is very short in the three southern
states. Hungarian grass, which is
heavy, is now being harvested.
GRA1N.-In general, grain is mar
turing rapidly. Oats and barley are
heavy crops in Maine. The rains Of
last week injured the straw. Corn
though somewhat late, is promising
only one report is unfavorable. Fod
der corn is now being cut in Connec
ticut.
FRUIT There is great unevenes
in the apple crop. In the same or
chards portion of the trees may b
laden, while others are destitute g
fruit. Summer and fall apples ar
abundant. There is an average yiel'
Of winter apples. The rains OF las
week will greatly increase the size o
the fruit; they have also checked at
normal dropping. Peaches andplum
are abundant in Vermont. Pears ar
medium in Massachusetts. Black
berries are plentiful in New HamE
shire. Cranberries are below the aver
age.

GREAT RALLY

Successful Meeting
LAST EVENING.
Great Enthusiasm. Issues
Clearly Discussed and
Defined.


grand style last night. The banner
was put in place befole six O'Clock and
was not officially raised until at $50.
This was on account of the difficulty in
getting it IN position and having got
it there, it was thought best to leave
it.
At $50 William Wishart appeared
on the veranda of the opera house
and asked for three cheers for the
candidates Mckinley and Roosevelt.
These we're given with will and
after selection by the Transatlantic
band States Attorney r. A. Hoar
made rousing speech.
The speaker spoke very bitterly in
reference to the anti-foreign dodger
which was issued and showed conclu-
sively that the Republicans were not in
any way responsible.
An adjournment was then taken to
Hale's pavilion where everything pos
sible had been done to prepare it for
the big rally.
The anticipation of big crowd was
not wrong in any way as, placing the
rally in comparison with that of the
Democrats of Monday, is like compar-
ing the population of Baare with
Wi Jamestown.
AT 80 sharp Chairman Frank G.
Rowland announced the first speaker
and introduced in a few we'll chosen
words Gen. Stewart L. Woodford.
Mr.. Woodford spoke on the national
and state issues using the cid 16 to
platform of the Democrats as his first
effort to convince the voters that they
should not support Bryan as candi
date for president.
The democats said that with gole
standard money would be scarce
and wages low and that hard time'
would come. Now, what has beer
the result? There is more money IL
circulation today than at any time IL
the history of the United States.
Wages is what labor earns; interes
is what money earns. The result o
the four years Of the republican ad
ministration has been that under tn
gold standard, wages have gone u
and interest has gone down.
Many other strong arguments wer
made showing the fallacy of chea
money and then the subject of Cub
| and Porto Rico was taken up an
MANY good stories told in reference t
the reason why the government loar
ed money to them in order to keepiti
} their treasury.
Gen. Curtis S. Guild, Jr. of Bosto'
was the next speaker and too muc
cannot be said of the able manner i
which he handled the different que'
tiOnS.
He controverted all the argument
of the Democrats.
He gave magnificent eulogy o
Col. Theodore Roosevelt the Republ
. can candidate for vice president.
Judge w. P. Stafford came up fro'
Montpelier to hear the speaker who'
he considers one of the best orators Q

FESTIVAL DATES CHANGED
wan Occur Next Yesr in May or
june.

Mr.. Edward A. Noyes, president of the
Western Maine Musical Association, en-
tertained the presidents and conductors
OF he several choral societies at the
Cumberland club last evening. Mr.. Chap
man was present and after brief discus
sion it was voted unanimously to change
the time of holding the festival to May or
June instead Of October.
The reasons urged for this change were
that there would be u saving of the long
intermission between the work of the
winter and spring and the festival. 1t
was thought that the chorus singers
would wor k with greater zeal If there is
to be no break between preparation and
performance and at the same time the
conductors would be saved from doing
so much work after vacation and Mr..
and Mrs. Chapman would be enabled to
take a real summers rest.
Again there would be a great saving Of
expense In soloists because OF the ease OF
getting the best artists before they beg in
their European work. This decision was
announced last evening during the inter-
mission at ths Festival concert.
