prohibition and high license can be salts.
factorilv settled is by referendum. The
large vote given in support OF Clement
and the principles he advocates was
under the circumstances an admonition
to the next legislature that very MANY of
the voters OF Vermont are opposed to
prohibition, and especially to the meth.
DDS used in enforcing the law. The peo.
pie are the source of power. They have
the right to settle for themselves the
question whether they wish the present
law continued or high license and local
option measure substituted. The senat.
or or the representative in the Vermont
legislature who may at the next session
vote against a referendum sets himself nm
in opposition to popular government
Individual opinion eli her favorable or un.
favorable to prohibition has nothing to
do with submitting the matter to popu.

mont cannot refuse, consistent with IFS
safety, to deny the people the exercise of
right which they possess, and insist on
exercising.-[W White River Junction Land.

A great triumph for woman's suffrage
has Just been achieved in Federated Aus.
tralia where the right to vote has been
conferred upon all women. There are
about 100000 people in this common
wealth aud this act eufranchiscs about
100000 women. For the past nine
years the women Of New Zealand have
been allowed to vote and yet only four
of the United States extend this privilege
to women. Commenting on the new
law the Woman's Journal says, ut is a
victory far exceeding any and all prcyi-
Gus successes, and assures the establish
ment Of woman's complete equality in
the near future throughout the entire
Southern hemisphere"

On account Of it being the day Sc
for argument in the cases of Sheriff
Samnel A. Mcdaniel, Mayor Eval
&. Boyd, Harvey B. Wiggleswortl
and Walter Rash charged with con
spring to defraud the county, Their,
was a large attendance Of the mem
bers of the New Castle bar, when
Superior Court opened this morn
ing.
Alexander B. Cooper of counse
for the defendants argued on a mo
ton to quash the indictment agains
the accused men.
Anthony Higgins, William S
Hilles, William H. Head and Johr
H. Rodney who are associated will
Mr.. Cooper in defending the four &C
cused men were all present.
Mr.. Cooper in Opening his argu
ment on the motion to quash salt
there was three grounds on which
he would ask that the Indictment
be quashed.
The first ground he said that il
does not sufficiently set forth mater
ial facts to plainly and fully inform
the defendants Of what they ar,
charged. In an Indictment Of con
spiracy to commit a crime he said
that the Indictment must allege that
otfense.
Mr.. Cooper said the Indictment
set forth the defendants had conspir-
ed to defraud the county out of 81,
500 in making false entries commit
ments of tramps and prisoners kept
i'll the Jail from day to day in April,
May and June 1901. Mr.. Cooper
claimed that the exact dates should
be set forth. He submitted a large
list of authorities on the question t.
the court.
The third ground was that th.
Indictment does not allesc any
guilty knowledge on the part Of any
Of the defendants except Sheriff Nc.
Daniel Mr.. Copper said that man
could conspir without any guilty
knowledge and that he Sould not be
guilty of a crime. Mr.. Cooper argued
for about an hour. Attorney.Genera
Ward in bis response to Mr.. Cooper's
argument said that he could merely
set forth that the defendants had
cosnpired to defraud the County and
nothing more and would still have
been perfectly safe in his indictment.
He said however that out Of fair
ness 10 the defendants it had be- en-
stated 10 the indictment In exactly
what way the defendants had con-
spired to defraud the county and
that he would plainly prove it to
the court in his argument. Mr..
Ward claimed that all is needed
in au indictment 10 to specify and
that he don't have to describe and
particularities. In answer to Mr.,
Cooper's third count he SAID that
the indictment set forth that the
four men were charged with con-
spiraey and that Sheriff Mcdaniel
being one Of the four men did pre-.
sent the bill.
Mr.. Ward argued for nearly two
hours and it was !. 80 o'clock when
court adjourned until Monday at
10 clock. The court will probab-
" give ito decision Monday next

ported to the police and Dog Catcher

An Amusieg Social.

The railroad social held in West
Presbyterian Church last night,
wds one of the most novel as well
as amusing entertainment that has
been held in this city for some time.
The social was largely attended and
everybody voted it a big success.
The lecture room had Sbesa ar
ranged to represent a railroad train,
while the room adjoining was the
waiting room. The waiting room
was decorated with the ordinary
excursion bills which can always be
seen in railroad station.
There was a charge OF one cent
to get in the train. The train was
in charge of Conductor William f.
Okeefe and Brakeman Smiley
King. Robert G. Bruce was the
neweboy and sold the wares at one
cent each that can generally BE- OBJ
tanned from the union newsboys.
One of the most interesting feat
ures of the ride on the train was the
elopment. Miss Ethel Walker and
harvey ration, a runaway couple,
boarded the train at the first stop
and furnished much amusement
for the other passengers.
The passengers soon learned that
they had eloped and the couple see
ing that they had been found out
became much embarrassed. The
jokes of the runaway couple were
amusing. Another feature which
was very >intering was that Conduc-
tor Okeefe would give out a conun-
drum before arriving at station,
the answer to which would be the
name of the station. For instance,
brook of silver, the answer to which
was Silverbrook. There was also q
number Of other amusing features.
