siastic meetings of the Democratic
every day, say they cannot see
where the boilers expect to get
any votes. The people of the
whole parish is almost solid for
the Democratic ticket. The boil
tiers can only rally a limited num-
Der in each ward, and those who
seem to know what they talk about,
say they will beat the boilers in
every ward of the parish. We do
not know that things will turn out
as reported above, but it should
be SO, the boilers should be given
such a rebuke that other genera
tions which are coming will learn
that "bolting" will not be appro-
we'd by an honest public. Vote
the boilers down.
Mr.. L. G. Ducbamp was sppoih-

OF the tools who was to return the
struggling boilers elected by re-
jecting one or two OF the strongest
Badon boxes, and made a return
upon the boxes that would elect
the boilers, thus placing Badon
and the balance of his ticket in q
position to contest. If this was
the intention of the boilers, they
must be sorely disappointed. be-

was their only little chance of get

doomed to defeat, sure and sbso-

A Business Change.

The business partnership between
Gen. r. B. Shepherd and Mr.. Lewis
Anderson, which has existed since 1875,
has been dissolved and the large hold
ings of water power, mill property,
electric railway property and real estate
have been divided by mutual agreement.
In this division Gen. Shepherd has the
Daue Mill property and power and the
power house of the electric railway, The
interest of the company In the Somerset
Traction Company and the Lakewood
property at Madison Centre, and certain
real estate within and near the village.
Mr.. Anderson has the building and
power known as the Old Paper Mill or
the Fiberte plant, the Worsted Mill at
Lakeside, East Madison, and certain real
estate near and In town.
The selling out of the Coburn Wooden
Mills to the American Wooden Company
about a year ago rendered this course
practicable and desirable and its con-
summation was brought about but few
udys dkU.
A quarter of century is long time
for two men to be associated in manu-
featuring business in a town and it is
but fair to say that the business of the
company during all these years has been
carried on with marked success, not only
to the interest of the principals but to
the great advantage of the town and the
people of the town and the surrounding
country.
This period covers an important one
in the growth of our town and the bust
ness done by these two men have had an
important part in the prosperity of our
town in its increase in population, and
the we'll being of its business interests.
1t covers the growth of wooden manu-
facture in our town, the building up and
equipment of one of the best plants of
its size in our State, the improvement of
water power and establishment of other
industries that can be appreciated by
those of our citizens who knew of these
things % years ago.
The Lewis Anderson Co. retains it's
cooperate existence and will for some
time, for the purpose of the settlement
of outstanding accounts and affairs not
readily adjustable.

Time was when Americans Ia search

Treasury had to appeal to the patriot.
lem of our great bank ers to keep down
the rate of exchange and thus prevent
urther exports. Foreign railways are
built and many foreign enterprises
1oated with American capital and
credit. Now, when the British govern
ment needs $5O,O00,000 for military
expenses In South Africa and China, it
offers it's treasury bills for sale in the
United States.
When the United States few years
ago had to sell It's bonds for gold to
bonds had to be sold at q discount from
their real worth. Now the United
States Ia able to refund its outstanding
obligations with new bonds bearing
only per cent.-the lowest inter est
rate ever known under the conditions
and those bonds bring 3 IL per cent
premium in the open market. On the
other hand, the British government Is
compelled to offer its 3 per cent bonds
at 2 per cent. discount and pay the
purchaser bonus of q months unearn-
ed interest. The effect of these conces-
siOns Is to make the British govern
meDt pay 81 per cent. interest, while
the United States pays but per cent

for five dollars, five cent cotton hand
kerchiefs surcharged with his divine

and taken before The court under seven
indictments. He pleaded guilty to five
and was fined $3.50 apiece, and the
other two we're retained by the court
as threat against his ever going into
the business again. When the police
searched bis rooms they found seven
