ing and that brought the subject matter

immediate opening of the term IN order
that while farm work was dormant boys
could be in school. Mr.. B. b. Lasater
followed and answering objections to
winter school on account Of the bad

dentally mentioned the offer Of Mr. L.
w. Gabel to saw lumber free of charge
to provide q plank walk through the
lowlands below town. Mr.. A. Coppin-
ger followed in a characteristic speech
advocating three months term now and
the fall term to begin in July. Refer
ring to the matter of transportation he
said, since one Mcbride had hauled tel
egraph poles from his section the bot
tom of the roads had fallen out entirely
and quoted an instance of where 55
loads OF stone had been put into one
hole and the hole still remained, lie
eomplimented the school and declared
himseltin favor OF good roads and good
schools, aud moved, THAT school term
commence Jan. and continue three
months, and fall term be from 2nd Mon
day in July and continue Ave months"
The discussion vas carried on by L. w.
Gabel, T. B. Lasater, II. Il. Tate, and

by Mr.. N Fultz that spring term be four

script ons of those present be put down

There were five bank presidents seated
together at the Hartford meeting.
When Mr.. Bryan learned this he went
into free coinage, sixteen to one and
bimetalllsm. He kept his eyes on the
bunch of bank presidents as he ham
mered away at the single gold standard,
the national banks and the currency bill.
The bank presidents gazed at him with
wonderment. They did not smile when
he poked fun at the syndicate financiers,
neither did they scOwl when he scored
the national bank trust. "If | were to
leave out all other questions when come
to Hartford" said Mr.. Bryan, 81 would
talk about the money question. denounce
the doctrine hat God made financiers to
think for the people. The financier is
no better than anybody else, no better
than the humble citizen. deny that
any citizen or club of citizens can claim
the right to do all the thinking for the
country, or make the laws for the thing
he handles. | want to make a sweeping
assertion-that in all the history of the
human race the capitalistic class never
conceived of or carried reform to the
benefit of the people. You think that
that is sweeping, don't you? | state ii
without reservation, that in all the his
tory of the human race the capitalistiC
class never conceived of or carried out a
reform. Do not misunderstood me.
don't mean that no capitalist was ever a
reformer, but say that capitalistic classes
have never been looked to, are not looked
to today, and .never will be looked to-
for the reforms which society needs.

IN THE PHILIPPINES.
a Middlebury Boy Writes of His Trip
Thither and Experiences.


The following letter from one of tour
boys" in the PHILIPPINES may be of inter-
est to REGISTER readers. 1t is from
Edward LaRock of this place, now
member of company A, 43d infantry.
and is dated at Manila Jan. 4. He says:
"Having promised to write you | will
now try to do so. My writing desk has
a roll top according to geography,
but il also has roll bottom so you
will please excuse my penmanship.
These holes through the paper are
not punctuation marks; they were made
by the stubble pushing up through.
Lying fiat ones stomach with the paper
lying on the grass and trying to write
fancy hand isn't what it has been crack
ed up to be. Well, as | stop to think of
1t, we are good ways from home. We
enjoyed our trip on the Meade very
much, and especially so when we entered
harbor In some strange land. Every
thing looked queer to us. We put in
two delightful days at Gibraltar. A
queer old fort on top looks as though
it could defy the world Later, as we
passed Spanish Islands, the people came
out and shook their fists at us. One
little tug came out to us, and after they
had carried their little fist shaking joke
far enough our sailors turned the hose
on them and they moved Off There was
great chattering on that boat, ! can
tell you. AT the canal (Suez) we had
couple of days, which we enjoyed very
much. We had to go slow through the
canal, not moe than 6 or S miles an
hour, because of the wash against the
banks. The country. is low, but | tell
you even flat land looked good to US.
Well, we have finally reached Manila,
but don't ask me how like it. There's
one thing about it, we have IL # the
winter behind us and are now In mid
summer. The people here are the fun
niest little folks you ever saw. They
don't appear to know 'enough to last
the m over night. Their clothing con-
sists of piece of cloth around the hips.
No use for clothing stores here. Well,
we are on the other side of the old earth
now. While you are sleeping we are
drilling away in the hot sun; and while
you are at work we are trying to sleep.
Bugs here till you can't rest. We have
MT had any pay yet and we are all bust
ed. | tell you this is a poor place to go
broke. The captain says we may not
get our pay for another three months
Oh, dear One would think we
ought to get good tobacco here, but 1t is
vile. We get 20 cigarettes here for a
cent, put up IN bunch, and if you will

for it. We expect to go on
garrison duty, but | would much prefer
to be on the firing line. for standing
around in this hot sunlight is no joke
I'd rather be where there's something
going on. When we return we hope tC

by so doing we will have gone around
