However, cannot expect reform in this matter
unless those who set the fashions be indU-

All subscribers to this paper who
have been taken on with the under
standing that their paper would stop

the coming year will receive two
copies more after which it will be dis
continued unless in the meantime
they shall have notified US that they
wish it continued. We shall be
pleased to have all of our readers re-
new but we have no desire to crowd
the paper on to any one and if any
who are on our ''stop" list receive it
after Jan. 14th it will be by mistake
and if they will kindly notify us we
will see that it is Immediately stopped.
We are making plans to give Orleans
County and the towns outside which
we cover q far better local represen-
tation than ever before. During the
past few weeks we have been crowded
with Christmas advertising but this is
now over and extra space will be de-
voted to local matter. As we have
stated before we shall run the special
columns which we now have and
commencing with the next issue shall
have q report of the Boston markets
in every paper during the coming
year We would again emphasize the
fact that we are endeaYoring in
every way to make a paper which
will enable Us % better satisfy the
wants OF the people. If you wish
more local news send to this office or
our correspondent in your town what
ever you may know that has trans
pired which will be of interest. If
you wish other special columns let US
know and we shall be pleased to graf
ify you. While the paper will be re-
publican in politics the management
realizes that the honest, patriotic cit
liens of the country are not all to be
found within the ranks of that party
and will try to use all others fairly.
To our ''stops' we would again say
remember that you will receive two
more copies of the MONITOR after
which time it will be discontinued

LETTER FROM CALIFORNIA.
Mr.. Editor:

Mr. Editor:
Ifyou will spare me little space in
YOUR paper I will give my friends a
brief account of our trip across the
continent. We left Barton, you will
remember, Dec. 9Th on the five O'Clock
Montreal express. We arrived at
Montreal on time and were soon on
our train for Chicago. We ran out of
snow at Detroit, Mich, and have not
been troubled with any eince, although
to-day as / write l can see snow on

away, while in the front yard from
the same window l can see Gala lilies,
carnations, and roses of every hue, ali
in full bloom. This is Los Angeles

to have been rightly named as it no
doubt outrivals all other places under
the sun for flowers and tropical fruits.
But right here let me beg pardon; l
have jumped from Detroit to Los
Angeles, over 5000 miles. Well, to go
back, we left Detroit on time, but a
of US and delayed US two hours and
when we got into Chicago our train
had left US and we bad to stay over
until 10 o'clock next day. The rail
road men met us at the depot and did
what they could to console US. They
took Us up to the great Northern
Hotel and gave Us a good bed up Is
stories from the Office floor, and only
charged US $500 apiece for FIVE hours
stay But we were all so happy to
find ourselves alive next morning and
once more down on terra .ttrnaG that
we made no complaint but started for
the Pullman car Office al once, showed
our credentials and a mar from the
Office went with US and got US on to
the limited express or flyer, that
leaves Chicago four times week for
Los Angeles and San Francisco and is
said to be the fastest long distance
train in the world. The schedule time
