FUSE BURNED OUT.
Electric Car Could Not Run From
Dewey Park.

The Vaudeville show at Dewey
this week is good one and so far has
drawn large houses. Last night there
were about 500 people present when
the thunder storm heralded it's an.
proach.
A break was made for the electric
car but when the car barn was reacho d
it was found that the car had not
been running. Enquiries elected the
fact that Bolton Falls power house
had all it's fuses burned out and that
they could not start up for IA couple of
hours.
The same kind of an accident hap
pencd to the generator at the power
house here but was fixed as soon as
possible. Supt. Andrews seeing that
they could not have power from Boil
ton Falls, hustled to the Pioneer
Mills and got steam satrted up. In
this way the first car started from
the barn at eleven O'Clock and all the
playgoers were taken home Just as
soon as they could run the cars.

The leading Democratic papers o.
the east and south are opcningly ant
emplatically repudiating Mr.. Bryan
and his 16 to platform. The N. Y.
Times says: Shooting the rapids of
Niagara is as Decoration day parade

Bryan is going to repeat the feat of
attempting to shoot the rapids of a
PRESIDENTIAL election on a IS to /
plank. And he has done it before
and knows what it means. That is
courage-of kind"
The Manchester, N. H., Union
says: "Ihe only way to put the
Democratic party upon it's feet is to
take Mr. Bryan at his word and utter.

cause.-the only cause he stands for

wait for that. Imperialism or no inn.

Bryan is to have his way and lis free
