The Barre Daily Telegram publishes
the following from one of it's readers:
Mr.. Editor: Il read a suggestion in
one of the papers that voters should
indicate their choice for United States
senator at the primaries next summer,
thus insuriug that the will of the peo-
pie be carried out. / would favo
that suggestion myself, but not from
the motives that seemed apparent in
the article referred to. The writer of
that article limited that the people
were in favor of Mr.. Dillingham; and
a primary expression would so
disclose the fact. Now. Mr.. Editor, 1
am not Dillingham; man but favor
the suggestion just the same. If there
is any man in the state of Vermont
that stands closer to the people, and
especially to the farmers, than Gen.
Grout, / want to know who he is. By
all means let us know who he is.

This cut illustrates the famous ''CRESCO
CORSET" the corset that cannot possibly
break at the waist. The 'Cresco'' COM
b1nes all the good features of other good
corsets, and has this distinct feature of it's
own, which corset makers have been try
ing vainly for years to embody: by a
smoothly adjusted disconnection at the
front waist line it cannot break. Not a
woman in this community but will hail
with delight a corset from which this
annoying and expensive weakness has
been removed. You are cordially invited
to visit our store and examine the ''Cresco"
have its merits explained to you. The
"Cresco" fits any form, and insures ease
and comfort to the wearer

Louis, of the American line, would
draw under this bill 1904. 209 annH-
ally, while a 10-knot ship, which
would carry y times more farm pro-
ducts and heavy freight, would draw
only s4S, 800 year, less than one
sixth as much
Senator Clay declared that it passed
his comprehension how those fayoring
the bill could make out that the farm
ers and producers of the country were
the principal benefciaries. The real
and only beneficiaries were the ship
owners, and they alope had urged the
measure forward and were respon sible
for the present influence in its support.
Senator Clay concluded by attacking
the subsidy as vicious in principle and
repugnant to the spirit of our free in
stitutions. If bounty can be paid
to the ship owner from the public
treasury, he said, for every mile they
sail on the sea. we can. with equal
propriety, pay the farmer 20 cents a
bushel on all the grain he raises.

FIRST BLAST AT SHIP SUBSIDY.

The first blast of the democrats OPP
position to the Hanna ship subsidy
bill was the speech of Alexander
Stephens Clay, of Georgia, in the
senate Senator Clay declared that a
clear analysis of the bill would demon
strate to an unprejudiced mind that
the results claimed-to promote COM
merce, increase the foreign trade of the
United States and provide auxiliary
cruisers and seamen for government
use, when necessarv-could not pos
sibly follow. On one point, however,
everybody was agreed-that when it
became a law it would take from the
public treasury 81, 900, 900 year for
20 wears, making in all $3.50. 600, 600.
and would donate this vast sum to
the owners of ships engaged in carry
ing foreign trade, to aid them in max
ing their private business profitable.
He said the minority mem bers of the
commerce committee had not only
voted against reporting the bill favor
ably, but would vote against its pas
sage.
Senator Clay presented figures to
show that the subsidy to be given the
slower vessels, up to l. knots speed,
which. he said, are really our freight
carriers, is only l cents per ton,
while that given TO the fast ships,
which carry only passengers and fine
manufactured goods, for instance, a
2I-knot vessel is 8 $40 cents per ton.
