NEWS IN TOWNS ABOUT.
SILVER LAKE.

The masquerade ball passed quietly witt
no noise or excitement and but small at
tendance. wondered at this, because il
must be pleasant for some to hide theil
identity If only for few hours.
A call from Col. Crockett Powers disclos-
es the fact that his postOtfice address will
remain in Barnard another year. This is
good news, for the Driving club is soon to
be reorganized ready for next seasons
campaign.
w. A. Perkins moves back to his farm at
| the North End and Bert Boyce takes his
place at the town farm, where he will be
next door neighbor to his brother, Charles.
| Mrs. Boyce will also be neighbor to her
| father Arthur Maynes. The move seems
| pleasant.
Warren Flanders of STAFFORD, who has
/ been hard sick at Chas. G. Aiken's for
many weeks, recovered enough to be car
ried home Sunday,the oath. Mr.. Flanders
had no lack of friends either in Barnard
or STAFFORD, but was unfortunate in this
costly sickness. STAFFORD people spoke
highly of his character.
Barnard horsemen were shocked and
panied at the sudden death of Edwin Kit
tredge. He was better known in this town
than almost any other man in Bethel.
Always ready with his horse and money to
accept a challenge, Mr.. Kittredge viii be
sorely missed. The old members of the
White River Agricultural society are Of
ten reminded with sorrow that their ranks
are fast being thinned. Chas. Lovejoy of
Royalton and Paul Gay, formerly of Beth
ell, men of John Robinson's time, both
crossed the river last week and their places
will not be easily filled.
Water in the lake was hardly ever known
to be so low April LIST as this year but there
is great depth of snow yet to be melted
which, without doubt, will give us the
usual quantity. / often think Of Mr..
Southgate, who lived in Woodstock and
once owned farm in the West part of
Barnard in school district No. 2, after a
visit TO his farm was asked how he liked
the country up there. He said the great
trouble was that the farmers were sugar
ing when they ought to be haying. Snow
in Barnard stays with us a long time and
goes slowly in the spring, but in reality is
no damage to the land and by many
thought to be an advantage, making the
pastures superior to river farms.

For an Azores Coaling Station.
[By the Assoclated Press.

Washington, May 1.-THE attention of
leading American naval officials has been
directed recently to the advantages pos
sessed by some of the islands of the
Azores group in the Atlantic and the
Galapagos group in the Pacific as sites
for coaling stations and naval rendezvous,
and they are urging that steps be taken
by this Government to acquire rights
from Portugal for station in the Azores,
and from Ecuador for a like station in the
Galapa Cos group. The latter group is only
short distance from the Western termi-
nus of an Isthmian canal, while the
Azores are a midway station in the At
lantic, somewhat like the British station
in Bermuda. The Dutch Island of Cura-
Goa, off the coast OF Venezuela. also is
regarded by American naval officials as
especially well adapted for our naval
uses. There are intimations thai these
views may lead to overtures to the several
governments Interested There is said
to be added reason for learning what
can be done in the Azores, as iniorma-
tion has reached naval officials that Ger
many has shown desire to secure lodg-
ment there.

FUTURE or FUSION
Bryan in a Speech Advocates
Its Continuance.
Co operation Between Reform Forces Withou!
Loss Of Party Identity or Surrender Of
Party Organization.
lRy the Assoeiated Press.l

Omaha. Neb, May THE annual
banquet of the Peter Cooper Club was
held in this city tonight, about $50
guests from various parts of the State
being present. w. J. Bryan and w. V.
Allen, the guests of honor, occupied
places on either side of President Quin-
by Of the club. The future of fusion
was the theme of the evening and the
expressions were unanimous in favor
OF its continuance The hall was de-
corated with United States flags and
portraits of Peter Cooper, JEFFERSON
and Bryan. Mr.. Bryan spoke upon
''Fusion," urging its continuance in the
following words:
Fusion as we have had it in Nebras-
ka is cooperation between the reform
forces without the loss of party iden-
tity or the surrender of party organl-
cation. Fusion between Democrats and
Populists was advocated IN 1890 by the
Hon. Sterling Morton, but it was not
actually attempted until four years
later. In the campaign of 1892 most O."
the Democrats, following the advice of
the Democratic National Committee
voted for the Populist electors to help
defeat the Republicans
'ln 1894 the Democratic State Con-
vention endorsed the Populist candi-
dates for Governor, Judge HolcomD,
and the Gold corporation element ran
O middle of the road ticket to deceive
Democrats. But the leaders of the
bolt did what they could to help the
Republican party, just as the gold cor
poration element did in the nation two
years later.
I'm 1900 the Populists following the
example set by the Democrats in Ne.
braska and other Western States, en-
dcrsed the Democratic ticket, but the
Middle of the Road Populists followed
the example of the gold corporation
Democrats and ran separate ticket,
hut gave their aid to the Republicans.
.'Fusion is the open and honest plan OF
corporation. The middle of the roal pol
icy has twice been the secret and dis
honest method of cooperation. believe
in the open and honest method and shall
continue to advocate it so long as the
allies agree upon paramount issues. The
Republican party has settled no issues.
Every year carries it further from right
principles and into more dangerous paths.
All friends of free government and equal
rights must fight together against
the common enemy until the country is
rescued from plutocratic tendencies and
pnsterity is saved from the retribution
which always follows wrong doing
whether committed by individuals, par
ties or nations.

FAVOR TUE PLATr AMENDMENT
But the Cuban Commission Will Make no Re-
commentator to the Convention,


(By the Associated Press.)
Havana, May THE special cont
mission of the Cuban Constitutional
Convention which returned here from
Washington. May 9Th. will not make
any recommendation to the convention.
Although the majority Of the commits
sioners are in favor of accepting the
Plat Amendment, the report will cover
only the facts of the conference at
Washington.
The convention held a secret session
this afternoon. The radical element
admits the convention will accept the
amendment.
The commission at the secret session,
presented an extensive report of their
conferences with President Mckinley
and Secretary Root and a glowing a.
count of the banquets and receptions
rendered them. Senior Giberga object
ed to Incorporating an account of the
social program in the report, but the
commission insisted upon this point.
In reference to the third clause of the
Platt Amendment. the report stated
that the United States would not in
tervene unless Cuba were attacked by
a foreign power, or unless there exist
ed in Cuba a condition of affairs sim
liar to that which existed under Spain
at the time OF American intervention.
Regarding coaling stations, the re-
port set forth that the places so de-
sired by the United States were Cape
May; and San Antonio and another
point commanding the entrance to the
Gulf of Mexico: these would be def
nitely determined upon when drawing
up the treaty and that the object of
these stations would be the mainten-
ance of the independence of Cuba as
well as the protection of the United
States. The report also said that the
United States would in no way inter-
President Mckinley had promised t.
appoint committee to T'naet Cuha1
committee to discuss the economic
questions and to draw up commercial
treaty as soon as the Republic is es-
tabliShed and that he advised the Gu
bans in the meantime to study the
situation in this respect The report
announced that Secretary Root hal
said that there was nothing in the Platt
Amendment TO prevent Cuba having
diplomatic representatives in foreign
countries. The report has evidently
made good impression and only a few
radicals will continue to oppose its
acceptance.
The convention will meet Thursday
and is expected to take definite action

A DAY OF RESOLUTIONS.
The National Cigar Leaf Tobacco Association
Hard at Work

New York. May THE third annual
convention of the National Cigar Lear
Tobacco Association was continued TINS
afternoon One resolution presented
declared that the association was cred
IDLY informed that manufacturers III
various sections OF the country were
doing a leaf tobacco business without
having paid the special tax required of
dealers in leaf tobacco and that they
avoided this tax by taking refuge un-
der the section of the law which per-
mits manufacturers to sell to other
manufacturers such leaf tobacco as may
be unsuitable for their own use. The
following resolution was passed, to
meet this situation:
'.Resolved, that the National Cigar
Leaf Tobacco Association protests
against the continuance of this evil and
requests the internal revenue authori-
ties to investigate into the matter ana
to apply the proper remedy
The next resolution taken up deale
with the method of calculating the
weight of imported tobacco in assess
ing the duties. At present the dock
weight is taken and this is usually
much greater than the weight taken
after the tobacco has been in the ware
Iouse for some time. There is some
difference of opinion among the mem
hers of the association as to just what
it would be best to agitate for; but
they want some change made.
Another resolution passed directs the
legislative committee to keep repre-
sentative as heretofore at Washington
Still another resolution was passed,
however, directing that no effort be
made at present to secure the amend
ment of the tobacco schedule in the
tariff, except so as to secure uni
form rate as to leaf tobacco.
The real Importance of this last men
toned resolution does not appear, it Is
said. to the lay mind merely in it's
text. 1t does not contain the slight
est reference to Cuba and yet it's real
purpose. it was said today, was to COM
nit the association to oppose any legis-
lation looking towards reciprocity ar
engagements with Cuba, by which Cuban
tobacco could come into the United
states free of duty or at lower rate.
Another resolution passed requested
the Department of Agriculture to con-
tinue it's Investigations regarding the
growing of tobacco and to extend them
to all States where it is product. Ar
other expressed a desire for coop
Grafton with the Cigar Manufacturers
Association, in all matters of mutual
concern.
Still another provided for the APP
pointment of a special committee on
membership with Instructions to use
energetic efforts With all important
dealers in the country to join the asso-
citation so that the wants of the trade
might be agitated with more assurance
af success.
