ELECTION DAY
The Annual Town Meet
ing To Be
HELD TOMORROW
Barre City Expects a Grand
Entertainment

Tomorrow is day Of great import
ance in Vermont. The town meeting
is an institution almost as sacredly
observed as any custom that has been
IN vogue amongst the people OF the
Green Mountain state for the past 100
years. Every town In the state holds
its annual town meeting tomorrow
and every city holds it's annual cleo
ton for city and ward officers.
In Barre very exciting time is ex-
pected. There are three candidates
for the mayoralty, N. D. Phelps, w.
d. Smith and John Anderson, all of
whom are conscientious and able men
who have taken very manly attitude
during the present campaign. If
their supporters have acted unwisely
and employed questionable methods it
does not follow that the principals are
in any way responsible. The voters
of Barre, therefore, will 60 to the polls
tomorrow not for the purpose of set
Ting a question upon which the ex-
haltation or ruin of the city may de.
pend, but to carry out their own con-
victions as to which of the candidates
would give the best satisfaction.
In wards one, three and five there
will be hot fights for the election Of
aldermen and the outcome is by no
means certain.
The polls are open at 8 a. m, and
close at p. IN. Vote early If possi-
BILE,

A SUNDAY FIRE.

About O'Clock Sunday morning an
alarm was rung In from box 13, Whit.
comb Brothers, for fire at Thomas
Emerson's house on Beckley St. Hose
Company No. 2, was soon on hand
and the companies from Prospect ST.,
engine house responded quickly.
1t appears that the fire caught In a
partition from stove pipe which led
from the sitting room stove.
Thomas Emerson had arisen little
while previous and fixed the fire, then
returned to his bed. The other In
mates Of the house were also abed.
Mr.. EmcrSon's son Charles who slept
over the place where the tire caught,
was awakened by the smoke coming
in bis room, He aroused the Others
and started for box IA, at the head Of
Second ST., to ring in the alarm. This
box would not work so he then went
to box 13, which responded.
The inmates of the house escaped
without injury and most Of the furni.
ture was saved, but the fire was hard
10 get water upon, being In the parti.
tions and under the roof so several
holes were cut through the roof and
wall and the interior deluged with
water.
The fire burned very little down
stairs and did not break through the
r. of, bur the interior of the upper part
was badly burned.
1t was an old house and not eX-
tremely valuable, but was not insured
at all. and the loss will be severe to
Mr.. Emerson.
L. II. Thurston offered him a tene-
ment on Seminary ST., rent free for a
month and he has moved into it.

r. L PAGE TALKS.

EDITOT TELEGRAM While recov.
ering from the grip the past week
have had time to look over the reports
OF various city officials as well as the
Mayors message, and find many
truths as well as some mistakes in
both.
have also taken the city erks ad.
vice and lLo.ed over the city records
and know where of l speak, and have
come to this conclusion.
Some OF the blunders and mistakes
In our municipal affairs are due to the
voters themselves in not acquainting
themselves with the needs OF the city,
but have allowed few corrupt politi.
clans to manipulate the affairs OF the
primaries, as we'll as of the whole city
to their own pleasure at the expense
OF the taxpayers.
When l think of the undcrhanded
and unpatriotic way that the ward
caucus was m manipulated in ward one
am led to ask. Are these few work
ing for the best interest of the city,
or are they afraid that the ring that
is already cracked will be broken?
Now it seems to me that it is about
lime to correct some of these mis-
takes.
Ifa city council votes to violate
the provision OF the city charter or
an ordinance, formed to regulate the
acts OF city official a> we'll as private
citizen, we can perhaps excuse it the
first time as q mistake, but II men,
ber again knowingly and wilfully vio-
la,es or votes to violate the charter or
an ordinance, can we call that mis-
take? say no.
Now l find some very grave errors
that our city officials have fallen into,
and one is this: City officials have
presented bills for double service and
have had them approved and paid
from our city tax, but In no case 90 l
find where they have rendered double
service at the same time, but another
person has been hired to do the work
they have had to pay for and that
person has had his pay not from his
salary but from the city tax.
Now as voters Of the city nf Barre,
We 1IC w cIcCu IOuI VI VIC DC 'CiI WV
ing members ~of the city council on
Tuesoay, and we should vote for men,
first exacting a pledge from them that
they will work for the best interest
OF the city without fear or favor of
any party, sect or person.
Voters, when we come to the polls
Tuesday, never mind parry, vote for
u al al
skirts and keep them Clean. Yours
for Gle In and honest municipal gov
ernment, FRED l. PAGE.

MCKINLEY
Oons the Toga Of the
Executive
A SECOND time
The Capital City Is Filled
with Visitors Today

Washington, March 4.-The second
Inauguration Of William Mckinley to
be chief magistrate Of the United
States, occurred today amid unusual
ly brilliant surroundings. The COM
mittees in charge of the various fea-
lures Of tue ceremony were determin-
ed to make this, the first inaugural Of
the century, eclipse all former perfor-
mances and they have succeeded be-
yond their most Sanguine expecta,
tions. The Inauguration ceremony
proper took place from the east por-
tico of the Capitol, where such cere.
monies have been held since the days
Of Jefferson. Four years ago, owing
to a petty quarrel betweenthe Senate
and House, the Senate took entile
charge of the Inauguration, even 60
ing to the extreme Of erecting the
stand in front of the Senate wing Of
the Capitol, and not in front Of the
main entrance on the east side. This
year the stand was erected in front of
the middle of the Capitol, and the
President entered from the rotunda
and not from the Senate entrance, as
four years ago.
The Pre- ident, after being admin
istered the oath by Chief ustice Full
ler, delivered his inaugural address in
clear. distinct tone, but his words
could ,nly be heard by a handful of
Che vast assemblagelspread out before
hini.
1''- inaugural parade included more
regular troops than have been seen in
Washington since the great parade
that marked the close of the civil war.
the war department. had ordered
1000 regulars to Washington, includ-
ing all branches of the service, caval-
ry, artillery and infantry. The naval
arm OF the service was also we'll repre-
sented. In addition to the regulars
hundreds of military and civic organ
::sssssassssfrsaas ell raztssSsi s,s .ss.ls 1 W.
were in Tine, making a parade the
grandeur OF which has never been ex-
ceeded in the history Of the Republic.
The Presidents personal escort to and
from the Capitol was Troop A Of the
first regiment of cavalry, Ohio Ma
tional Guard, an organization similar
ly honored four years ago.
Tonight the Inauguration ball In
the old pension building will be one of
the most brilliant affairs ever witness
ed in Washington. More than $780,
900 have been expended in decora-
tions. The Marine band, stationed
among the palms and pillars and be-
side an artificial lake, where little
Monitor and Meriimac chase each
other round and round, will furnish
the music.
The city will be lavishly illuminat-
ed throughout and magnificent
display of fireworks has bee arranged.
Washington, March 4.-The day is
perfect. 1t is the finest weather ever
experienced since IS years ago. The
Capital city is filed with enthusiastic
crowds, reaching the number, it is es-
timated, of half a million persons.
They came from all states in the
union.
Pennsylvania Avenue was crowded

early. The blare Of drums and crash
Of brass is heard. Detachments OF
troops from many states marched
hitherand thither and take their places
in the procession. Most prominent
are the West Pointers whose perfect
marching elicited the warmest admi.
