operators promptly refused to enter
tain the proposal and took their leave
Later they and the Pennsylvania sen
ators departed from the city, the lat
ter going to Harrisburg.
''What, do you mean by politicians?

FORMED

St. Louis, Oct. 1.-THE Interstate
Grocer of St. Louis today says that a
combine to include every wholes aler OF
groceries In the United States is in
the course of formation. That paper
says:
"The details are not yet public
property, and they will not be until
after Nov. next, when the initial
steps toward forming the combina-
tion will be taken in Detroit. George
D. Hanford OF New York city is en-
gineering the deal. Already a large
number of the leading wholesale groc.
erS in the east have expressed their
willingness to be present.
IAN outlint OF the plan is as fol
lows:
1T is proposed to take over the
business of the entire line OF whole
sale grocers in the United States.
One great corporation will be formed
which will buy outright the business
and good will of all the firms. A cen
tral Office probably in New York, will
do the buying for all the houses in IL e
corporation.

Editor CT the TELEGRAM:

Editor CT the Telegram:
In last evenings issue Of your
paper the street commissioners seer
to speak as though the merchants of
Barre had nc right to a voice in the
matter OF streets. There are others
In Barre that are complaining as Bit
terly. The merchants Of Barre are
not talking Of the filthy condition Of
Main street without just cause and
its perfectly natural that they should
after the way the street business has
been run. They sho Id take some
measures to satisfy themselves at
least as tax payers that there is no
better way OF having wo,k done and
spending money for streets than at
present.
That there has been a great deal OF
money spent in certain localities that
made an added expense not only to the
city but to the abutterS is certain.
Taxpayers OF Barre cannot afford to
pay two heads to street department
when one ought to be enough. The
next thing is to seek a remedy. II
there is no kbetter system to adopt
than the present we are sorry. The
merchants of Barre have no time tc
interfere in any any with any corpora
tive city or individualsSbusiness other
than their own but they do
feel that they are rIlosing business for
themselves that value Of property on
Main st., is depreciating.
That we are retarding the bulldin
conditions of our city by allowing the
conditions Of our streets to be SO bad
that people visiting or residents with.
In it's borders cannot walk ol Main
street without mud and water from
the street being stopped up on them
from passing teams.
There are other cities that are
making better progress on this line
and the merchants only sugt est that
their systems be examined and see If
there cannot be some way OF having
one man that thorough. understands
street systems, take charge Of our
streets and keep him long enough to
become acquainted with what ought
to be our street system.
The merchants of Barre are all will
ing to DO what they can so far as con-
Sistent to help this, our Main street.
