Grief Stricken.

The local contemporary takes defeat
on the free rum bill very much al
heart. 1t whines with disappointment
and raves with accusation and denun-
citation. The supporters of the bill
had the same time allowed them for its
advocacy as the opponents had for OPP
position. A public hearing was held 10
give the former the opportunity to
make converts, but they did not ap-
pear and their voice was not heard,
much to the disappointment of a large
assemblage gathered to hear what
could be said in defence of bill for
the open and legalized sale of liquors
for drinking. 1t was incumbent on
them to make good their claims respect
ing the beneficial effects of the bill on
public order and morality. Discretion
was the better part of valor, and they
Stunned publicity. Whining over lack
of opportunity to be heard is out of
place in view of conspicuous neglect to
improve seasonable opportunity.
The principle and purpose of the bill
was wrong. 1t was fundamentally
vicious, and no saving amendment
could cure its organic and inherent
wickedness. No amendment could dis
guise the main intent and object of
the bill which would remain wholly
unchanged. So the plea for delay was
without sense or reason. The time for
decisive action came on Thursday and
the majority firmly and reasonably held
the minority down to business. They
had been maturing their bill since the
first week in the session; they had
been given an opportunity to be heard
which they had not improved, and it
was sheer trifing with reason to ask
for more time when the hands on the
dial of the session were rapidly nearing
the hour of final adjournment and
measures pertaining to the schools,
the highways, taxation and many
other matters of public moment were
pressing for action.

"Reprehensible Criticism"

Under this head the Brattleboro
PhoniD quotes the following paragraph
from the Boston Record:
1--WE venture to suggest to the Yer.
mont Legislature that in passing q
resolution calling on Congress to give
some special mark of gratitude and re-
ward to Capt. Clark, who brought the
Oregon on her famous trip 20 Santiago,
it is, according to Hobson, affecting q
terrible thrust at Admiral Sampson, and
doing much to embitter'the last of his
life and bring his gray hair in sorrow to
the grave. His admirers have taken
the ground that any praise for his sub
Ordinates is detraCtion and contunely
for him. Possibly the Vermont legisla-
tors are not aware of the fact, but they
ought to be very careful how they con
tiuue in their present reprehensible
course towards Sampson"
To this the PhOeniD says:
1.-THE reprehensible course in this
matter is the above editorial comment
OF paper which makes pretensions of
enterprise, honesty and fairness. Capt
Clark brought the Oregon at racing
speed ID 900 miles, and when the long
journey was over the big battleship
was ready for duty. The official rec
ords award the chief honor of the naval
battle which resulted in the destruction
OF Cervera's fleet to the Oregon. Starting
from poor position, she distanced all
of the American vessels except the
fleet cruiser Brooklyn, aud actually eX-
celled her own trial record speed. Capt
Clark had kept himself and men on
short rations of water that the boilers
might be filed with fresh instead of
salt water, and picked coal had also
been placed at hand for Just such an
emergency as arose. The Oregon was
an important factor in destroying four
of the Spanish cruisers, and but for the
consummate skill with which she was
handled the Viscaya and Colon would
have had a good chance to escape.
Sampson, Schley, the late lamented
Philip, and Higginson, the Massachu-
sets man who was 40 miles away from
the scene of the great battle, were
made rear admirals, and Wainwright of
the little Gloucester was honored. But
Clark, with all of his conspicuous
service, actually ranks lower, through
the promotion of others, than he did
before the Spanish-American war. Is
it 'reprehensible' at least to ask that
he be honored as highly as Philip and
Higginson?"
The position of the Ph9niG is very
well taken, but the extract from the
Record shows in every word and sylla-
BILE that it is a most ironical joke on
Sampson and distinctly favorable to
Capt. Clark. The editor of the Ph9nir
should have been trepanned for the re-
ception of the Records very evident
joke.

24,000,0O0 Feet of Lumber.

Hon. s. l.. Griffith of Dandy says
that the lumber business has material
ly improved since the national election.
He is selling lumber now at the same
rates he did last year and has more
orders coming in daily than he can fill.
He already has contracted for eight
million feet. His winter cut, aside
from what will be put in at the mills
owned in company with others, will
amount to over sixteen million feet.
Mr.. Griffith expects to clean up the
timber at Groton this winter, and after
this is done to dispose of all his prop
erty there. The Arlington mill is a
new property for Mr.. Griffith and as
he has recently purchased about 5000
acres of well timbered land in the town
of Sunderland, his supply of timber
will not be exhausted at present.

The Waterbury Asylum.

The Scripture admonishes the man
who having put his hand to the pillow
looks back. Vermont ought to take
this solemn admonition seriously home
to It's inner consciousness. l. is a sim
ner, in this respect, above any other
State in the Union. II is apt to plunge

devout zeal, but under the strain of
continued and necessary appropriations

the form of violent reaction.
Wisely or unwisely-the former, uu-
unquestionably-the Legislature en-
barked lwelve years ago in the work Of
building an asylum for the insane.
With difficulty its successors have been
persuaded to make the appropriations
needed to complete the original plans.

judicious direction of DR.. Hutchinson,

is asked for small appropriation for

of many cares or labors, knows from ex-
perience that to obtain rest and recup-
GRAFTON, his best course is 10 get away
from contact with care and labor, out
OF their sight or hearing. A nurse OF

 This stratum frequently expands into large pockets of marvelously high grade ore. From this. ore they re- covered the free gold values by treat. ment with arrastras. Even by this slow and crude method they have taken out large amount of gold and their monthly sales of amalgam, which were reported in the Blade and Globe papers, led to an investigation of their property by MT Alexander Hill of the London Globe Exploration Company.

 Mohave Miner: Arizona is looked upon as the greatest producing coun- try in the world by those interested in the copper industry. The territory is only exceeded in production by the states of Michigan and Montana and only by narrow margin. Year by year thls margin is growing less, and before very long Arizona will head the list. New mines are being open ed up every day and the production added to by millions of pounds.

BAILEYS STRENGTH GROWING.
Returns Indicate Large Gains over
Seuntor Chiffon.

DALLAS. Tex. April 15.-Revised re-
turns from yesterdays Democratic prima-
ries make more pronounced the success OF
Congressman J. W. Bailey over United
States Senator Horace Chiffon in the
United States, Senatorial contest. Bailey
carried the two very important counties
Of Hill and Hunt. which Senator Chilton's
friends had confidently claimed for him.
Bailey's majority in Hunt approNimates
1,1CO, and in Hill more than 200 is
claimed. while Chiltons friends concede
500.
In addition to these Bailey carried Wash
ington, BastrOp. and Potter, all large
counties, while Chiffon got the two com
paTatively small counties of Camp and
Mills. Up to date the result OF the prlIna-
ries stands: Bailey-Wise, Montague,
Shackeford. Duval, Washington. Bastrop'
Potter, Hunt. and Hill; Chiffon pshur,
Camp. Van Zandt. Nueces. and Mills.
Bailey's counties in voting strength are
three to one compared to Chilton's. Bailey
spent Sunday in Dallas. and was given
tremendous ovation He departed tonight
for San Antonio to push his canvass in
southwestern Texas. Travis County. IN
which the State capital. Austin, is located
holds its primaries tomorrow. 1t is gen
orally conceded to Chiffon.
Former Gov. James S. Hogg lives
there and is making personal hght LOT
Chiffon. Another big batch OF counties
will hold primaries next Saturday Ihey
are located in sections where Bailey is
claimed to be exceedingly strong. Inc
fight on Bailey's part has been along anu-
expansion lines
