Gives Satisfaction.

We wonder how many people here
appreciate the new mail service, we
mean the mail arriving here the same
day as it leaves Montpelier. The stage
managers have proposed to have the
government cut the new schedule down
to twelve hours, but the people have
thought the old way good enough. Now
as soon as the management takes no.
tion to come in the next day with the
mail, they can do so, but we should not
complain. It was argued that in leav-
ing Montpelier one hour earlier, the
train being little late, the stage would
leave without the mail and thus throw
us day late any way. Could it be any
worse than at present? We get daily
paper here about three times week if
all is well, surely we could not be in a
worse fix the other way.-Star Valley

transferred from Pocatello TO Salt Lake.
A. B. Mattson, of this city, succeeds
him at Pocatello, while Mr.. King of
Mountainhome comes to Montpelier.
AS to Mr.. Mattson the EXAMINER is
indeed sorry to lose him from this city.
The patrons of the office have found
him obliging ia every way, and the
people of Pocatello will find him pleas
ant and courteous gentleman. Both he
and his estimable wife have made no sts
of friends in this city and all will wish
them well in their new home.
Mr.. King comes to Montpelier splen-
didly recommended as one of the Short
Lines best agents, and on behalf of the

as everyone else has, that no better
people exist on Gods footstool than
Montpelierites.

Ready For a Fire.

The city council has had the chemical
engine put in first-class shape For use IN
case of fire. Jas. Lyons did the work,
and being thorough machinest, he has
given the engine the only overhauling
it has had in years.
The engine will be moved down town
to the livery stable, where a team of
horses can be hooked on to it ON short
notice, and thus it can be quickly taken
to any part of the town Mr.. Lyons ex-
planned the mechanism to an EXAMINER
scribe one day this week, and from him
we learned that this much talked of
machine can be made most effective in
case of fire. He informed us that with
small amount of water anywhere
close at hand, constant stream of fire
destroying liquid and gas can be kept
contantly turned on the flames for hours
at time. He advised that a company
be formed, which should be thoroughly
drilled in the method Of using the en-
gine.
The EXAMINER congratulates the
Mayor and council in their determine
tion to use every effort in their power
to protect the city from destruction by
fire.

DEMOCRATIC UNITY.
Splendid Convention---Good Hu-
mor---Utmost Harmony
Large Gathering.

A great big convention and great
good humor throughout, marked the
democratic county convention this af-
ternoon. Every seat i'll the court
house was occupied by delegates and
nearly every precinct in the county
was represented.
Chairman Bucklin, of the county
central committee, called the meeting
to order There was Il little tiff over
the selection of temporary chairman,
but this only added zest to the meet
ing, two candidates for the honor be-
ing placed in nomination. Alvin
Bucklin represented the city delegates
and George w. Masters the country
delegates The vote was close. result
ingin the selection of George W. Mas
ters for the position.
The name of Frank H. Haskell for
secretary was presented to the conven-
ton and his election made by accla-
nation.
From the general appearance of
conditions in the convention it will
be harmonious one. Every delegate
present desires to avoid seemingly
even the appearance of dissent and
disunion.
The various committees, on per
manent organization, order of bust
ness, credentials and resolutions We're
appointed on motion by the chair
If the enthusiasm of the convention
today is an augury of IA united democ-
racy, republicans will have to play
long and fast to catch the coat tails
of the democracy in the saddle in this
county.

PROHIBITION IN CUMBERLAND

Six years ago every saloon in Cumber-
land county was closed and a dispensary
was established in Fayetteville. Four
years ago there was a big fight in the Leg
islature over a bill to abolish the dspen-
sary and restore license. 1t was de-
feated. Two years ago, under the lead
ership of Senator James d. Mcneil, q
determined effort was made to abolish
the dispensary. The House defeated the
bill. Later Mr. McKeithan introduced a
bill to establish prohibition in Cumber
land, coupled with proposition that in
November, 1902, the voters of Cumber-
land should vote Prohibition or
License Most of the Prohibitionists
and advocates of the dispensary fought
the bill. mainly because they thought it
would result in restoring license at the
election.
Prohibition went into effect in July,
1901 1t has worked so we'll that at the
election on Tuesday, the people, by an
overwhelming majority, voted to con-
tinue Cumberland a dry county. The
vote was: Prohibition 1881; License 612,
a majority of 1919.
This is the most significant election
held in North Carolina this year. The
sentiment against the saloon has been
steadily growing in North Carolina.
Prohibition has been successful in Cum
sberland county. because it embraced the
whole county, because public sentiment
was behind it, and because the officers
sought to enforce the law. There needs
only an anti-jug amendment to the law
in Cumberland to make it's violation
comparatively infrequent.
Prohibition or a dispensary regulation
prevail in most of the counties of North
Carolina, and the number of counties
abolishing the saloon will steadily in
crease. The result in Cumberland will
give a great impetus to saloon restric-
ton in other counties.
