Vermonts System Of Representation
Criticised.

Connecticut is to have a constltu-
tional convention to revise her anti
ouated fundamental law. The state
has a system of repre- almost
as bad as Vermont's. and very much
the same, which has stood 10 the way
of progressive legislation as has that
| of Vermont. The small towns have
the power. as they nave here, and
have not besn modest about using 1t.
The small towns generally voted
AGAINST constitutional convention,
but the ponular not the municipal
vote counted and by majority of ID, :
600 the people have decided on re-
vision of the constitution. For 81
wears no changes have been made IN
that instrument aud they would not
he made now were it not that the
small tovrs have been nutvoted. I'm :
fortunately, we cannot have popular
vote on amending the constitution.
The method TO be used in amending

The small towns retain all their poTer
until they consent to such Bn anerd-
ment of the constitution Es Will destroy
il. There temaiD nine years before
the first move for an amendment can
be made. Nire years of earnest work
will accomplish a great deal. If there

noeple of the desirability of change

Admiral Dewey is now seen in a
different light from that which had
surrounded him since his brilliant
victory III Manila bay 1t can be said
without reservation that in his posi-
tion as president of one Of the most
celebrated naval courts of inquiry he
has met expectations as fully as he
did at Manila. His rulings have been
characterized by absolute fairness and
show him to be clear headed and of a
judicial turn of mind. CouL sci on both
sides take occasion outside of court
to comment upon the ability and in
rartality with which the admiral
conducts the court. His colleagues,
Rear Admiral Benham and Rear Ad-
miral Ramsay, are also popular and
praised by COUNSEL. This comment,
which is heard in the lunch and re-
firing rooms during recess of the court
warrants the assumption that what
ever verdict is brought in will not
be questioned by either Size. All

and impartihlity Of ths court. Wash p

At the appearance of the first symptom
of kidney trouble, Peruna should be
taken. This remedy strikes at once the
very root of the disease. 1t at once re-
lieyes the catarrhal kidneys of the stag

serum from the blood. Peruna stimu-
lates the kidneys to excrete from the
blood the accommodating poison, and thus
prevents the commissions which are sure
to follow if the poisons are allowed to
remain. 1t gives great vigor TO the
hearts action and digestive system, both
