The bill reported by the house ways
and means committee, providing a
duty equivalent to twenty five per
cent. of the duty paid by foreign pro-
ducts on Porto Rican products, is the
result of compromise between those
who favored giving the island the
same trade privileges as those en-
joyed by the citizens of our states,
and those who favored a smaller re-
duction of existing duties, and as
such, 1t will probably be accept and
become a law. The senate Porto Ri
can committee has ordered a SINH
lar bill reported to the senate. In
agreeing upon the bill, the majority
of the ways and means committee
reached the conclusion that Porto
Rico is not, IN the meaning of the con-
stitutioa part of the y. S., and can
therefore be governed as colony.
President Mckinley is watching the
Kentucky mix-up with interest, as
most other men in Washington are.
He believes in common with nearly
everybody else, that Taylor was ell
ected governor, and that he has no
chance of fair treatment before the
state courts, but he doesn't believe it
eminent to interfere with such mat
tiers, exceptu pom the request of the
regular state authorities. With the

seses the authority to make that re-
quest, in the opinion of President
Mckinley and his advisors, unless
there is no probability of anv Federal
interference in any shape in Kentucky.
In the eyes of the President, this ism It
a case of politics, but law, and the
strict letter of the law will be followed

situation at the Washington end

Gen. Warfeld, prominent Califor-
MAN, now visiting Washington, says
that nine tenths of the people of that
state favor permanent retention of
the Philippines, and that when peace
has been restored on the islands, and
we begin TO realize the possibilities of
trade with the Orient, San Francisco
will rival New York as seaport.

Since Senator Lodge read that
plainly worded letter from Admiral
Dewey, branding as lies all the num-
erous stories told about the AdmiraPs

too dazed to start new batch OF
stories.

Miss Clara Louise TrcrIicht and Miss
Alice Trorlicht. the youngest daughters of
Mrs. ]. II. Trorlcht. OF Lafayette avenue
are dehutantes OF the season Their ap-
pearance last week at the opening ball Of
the Union Club was the occasion of much
pleasant comment. The Misses T-oriict-
are both quit" Young. and rnr'Hrt~hr"
pretty. They bear great resemblance to
each other, and nseparable as COM
panions. Miss Alice Trorlicht the younger
of the two. has adopted the coquettsh
Janice Meredith curl this winter and
wears 1t with great becomingness.
No formal debut function has yet been
given for these young ladies. The Tror-
LIGHT family by reason of mourning, has not
entertained for the last two years: but
with two debutantes now to the fore. Mrs
Trorlicht will doubtless open the doors of
her large Lafayette mansion to society this
winter. The two eldest Misses Trorlicht
have laid aside their mourning and again
taken up the social threads: so that four
charming daughters in one household
might be expected to insure plenty of livii-
ness and fun. The two debutantes will not
be introduced at ball, at least not this
season Mrs. Troricht probably will give
q large afternoon function early in DeceH1-
ber, followed by an informal dance. In
March the entire family expects to sail for
a six months European tour.

From the Boonville, n. Y, Herald
Sylvester O. Cook died at his home on
Schuyler street, Boonville, n. Y, at >
o'clock Sunday morning, March IL. His
illness was brief and his death so unex-
pected that it came as a surprise and shock
to his many friends. In his death there is
lost a devoted husband, valued friend,
good citizen and a veteran of the civil war,
with a service record equaled by few and
excelled by none. He enlisted in the l46th
New York volunteers i'm the spring of 1862,
and was present for duty in all the battles
in which his regiment was engaged, until
1864, when he was commissioned second
lieutenant bv Gov. Seymour in the 10th
New York Heavy Artillery. While in COM
mand of his company in this regiment in
one of the battles before Richmond he re-
ceived a severe gun shot wound in the
right arm, from which resulted so serious
a case of gangrene, that for weeks his life
was despaired Of
He was born in Townshend, VT, in Sep
TENDER, 1885, and came to this village in
| 1857. For many years, in company with
his brother Lorenzo b. Cook, he carried
on hardware store and timing business,
in which he established reputation for
honesty and fair dealing. He had been for
many years an active member of Boone
vile lodge, No. lGj, f. ~ A. NJ, and at
the time of his death was commander Of
the Wheeock post, G.. A. r., to which
Office he had been elected for six consecu-
tive years. His wife, who before her mar
rage was Miss Emma Sears of Leyden,
survives him, also one brother, Fayette
| Cook, of Townshend, VT, and four sisters,
Mrs. c. p. Stone of Springfield, Mass,
Mrs. Charles Park of Willamsvile, Vt,
Mrs. Marsh Martin of Townshend, VI,
and Mrs. Merrill Hodgkins of Brattleboro,
! VI.
The funeral was held at the Baptist
church Wednesday at l p. NJ, Rev. A. w.
| Cady officiating, and was attended by a
large number of the comrades of Wheel
ock post and members Of Boone
Vile lodge, f. d A. NJ. The bearers, men,

DR.. Doane Of Springfield was a guest at
T. p. BARRIERS last week.
The funeral of Mrs. Amelia Hazeltine
Howard was held at her home lastSaturday,
attended by Rev. NJ. F. Hardy. Mr.. and
Mrs. Frank Blood of Springfield were
present.
Curtis Howe died early Monday morn
ing. Death was caused by stroke OF
paralysis. His wife died several years ago
and he lived alone, but was well cared for
during his brief illness by Wesley How
ard and Charles Boynton. He had lived
here for many years and his familiar figure
will be much missed about the village.
The funeral was held Tuesday at the
church, Rev. Mr.. Hardy officiating.
News has been received of the death of
DR.. Albert S. Taft, prominent physician
of Rochester, n. Y, who died suddenly
Nov. 9, at his home in that city. He was
a member of Ashbury Methodist church, a
man of fine character and of sympathet-
ic nature. Dr. Taft was born in West
Townshend, Dec. 20, 1924, and moved
from here when a young man to Bristol,
n. Y, where he began the study of medi'
cine and became successful practitioner.
In 1868, with his brother, the late Dr. Gil
bert Taft, he went to Rochester. Upon
the incorporation of the Taft Brothers
Medical company he was elected president,
and he held that Office until his death.
DIR. Taft is survived by his wife and sis
ter, Mrs. j. A. COnover, also of Rochester.
Three of his cousins live in this village.
