come and share in this great sorrow,

His presence created a stir in our
hearts.
"Thou thinkest that love thee not,
When dire calamities befall,
But tits because thou canst not see,
And that is all.
1t is because thou canst not know
That thou so sadly dost repine,

The Wilcox home of today was
planted by Joseph Hosford of Connec-
ticut middle of 100. whose daughter
married Aaron Wilcox, emigrant of
Connecticut, and the line continues
through the late A. B. and H. F, and
his two children of today. Aaron re-
mains 'chief of the clan," and his oath

tiers still cling to his old home, Maria
and Cynthia, much younger, and as
the former entered on 81 the host
stripped himself for duty and the day
was honored by the presence of twelve
dowagers, including the home ladies.
This home is both ample and complete
and nothing left out which could have
added to the comfort, and all were
served with no small show of gallant
ry. And here comes a borrowed cpl
taph for the dear cousin Cynthia.

The Senatorial Situation.

When the general result of the repre-.
| sentative contests were practically all
known after a recent election, ex-Gov.
Dillingham; replied TO newspaper en-
quiry:
The returns received indicate my
election"
This was positive statement and it is
gratifying to Mr.. Dillingham's supporters
to know that nothing has transpired to
weaken it. Carefully compiled tables by
the Barre Times and Randolph Herald,
giving the figures by counties, show that
Dillingham; has strong lead over Grout,
The figures cannot be successfully dis
puted. The attempt to do so by Grout and
his newspaper supporters has apparently
degenerated into a stiff game of bluff.
The claims made from these sources are
remarkable for their inaccuracy.
For instance, in Washington county
the Grout claim is 10 to Is votes; he may
have two or three. In Orange county 10
to II votes are claimed for Grout, but
six, while Dillingham; has 10 or more. In
Addison county the claim is made that
"Grout has as many votes Dillingham;"
facts show that Is out of % votes will be
for Dillingham;. These are fair illustra
ton of the absurd claims of the Grout
support.
With the Federal patronage at his dis
posal for nearly two decades, Gen. Circuit
was undoubtedly warranted in expecting
stronger support throughout his district
at least; but now, even with his political
experience and wealth, he has no reason
to hope to gain the support from repre-
sentatives elect which he claims.
1t has been evident for sometime that
the people are opposed to the idea of
further encouraging the constantly grow
ing political ambitions of Gen. Grout-
eighteen years is quite enough.
There is certainly every reason to ex-
pect that the general assembly will
ratify the undoubted choice of large
majority of Vermonters by electing on

The Grout papers keep persistent tu-

the statements of the number of

ton whatever in the real facts of the sit

Here is a quotation from one of Bry
ans SpaanhaS in 1906.

Here is a quotation from one of Bry-
ans speeches in 1896:
"Tf Mckinley and the republican
party are successful and put in power
for the next four years, wages will be
decreased, hard times will come upon
us, and over the land the price of
wheat will go down and the price of
gold will 60 up; mortgages on our
homes will be foreclosed by the money
lenders; shops and factories will close.
We will export no goods and we will
import from foreign lands all the goods
we use; thus will ruin, want and misery
be with us.
How false this has proved all know
If Bryan was false prophet in 1896,
what reason have we to think that he
has changed in 1900. Listen to the
false ring to this quotation taken from
one of his present campaign speeches:
To-day we are engaged in contro-
yersy which will determine whether
we are to have republic in which the
government derives its just powers
from the consent of the governed, or
an empire in which brute force is the
only recognized source of power.
When such an issue is raised there can
be only two parties-the party, what
ever its name may be, which believes
in a republic, and party, whatever its
name, which belives in an empire"
We are not engaged in any such con-
troversy, but are quelling an insurrec-
ton. When the tissue is raised" re-
publicanism will win, but Mr.. Bryan is
ahead of his time for there is no such
issue as Imperialism at the present
time.

answers that the legation will remain
in Pekin and only enough troops will
be left to form proper guard for our

form part of the allied troops. The

Wright which tells of his proposed
trip in Asia. He is considered an
authority on the glacial period of the
earth's geological history. He does
not accept the theory that the deluge
only submerged the region around
Palestine, but believes that it covered
the earth and intends to prove it. To
do this he will go through the noun
tains of Siberia and dig up the earth
until he reaches the stratum which
should have been deposited at that pc
Rod. He will persue this study
through the Caucasus range past the
ancient Ararat and come out near
Smyrna, Asia Minor. If he finds
traces of the sea throughout his explo-
rations, it will prove to him that the
flood was general.
