HON. e. J. BOWERS.

From the Stems Creek Times, May 2.
We have no fight to make, no AK
to grind, or favor to curry, but it
does seem that If Hon. E. j. Bow
ers is not sent to congress the best
man is not wanted. Some men
are by nature fitted for certain
things and from a study of MIR.
Bowers during the session of the
last legislature, we reached the
conclusion that he is fitted for le-
gislative duties. We remember
to have asked prominent State
official who had no interest in the
matter whatever, one who know s
men thoroughly, who was the best
all-round member of the lower
house and he answered without
hesitation, "Eaton j. Bowers. :"
We of the South have allowed
ourselves to be deluded with the
idea of "rotation in office" It's
the cry of the politician. Too of
ten poor men are sent for term
or two merely to get them out of
the way or make friends for some
one else. Why has the South
lost leadership? Simply because
she has been too much accustom-
ed to sending any sort of a "plu-
gugly," just so he ran with the
boys, and then about the time
that he learned what part of the
city Of Washington the capitol is
in, and could get into the house
without guide, we intelligent
voters traded him for another
plug until we have only very few
men from the South who are we'll
known. So if Mr.. Bowers proves
Q good man keep him there until
he grows prominent and infuen-
tial and can do some good for his
State and district.

"It gives me much pleasure to write
and express my gratitude for the ben

for heart trouble brought on by long
standing case of indigestion and an

sharp pains around my heart. grad

MARRIED so YEARS
The Golden Wedding Of Deacon and
Mrs. Moses Root.

TIL 9th Of October, 1902, was the cele-
bration of the golden wedding of Deacon
and Mrs. Moses Root at the Congrega-
tional Church, North Craftsbury, VT.
More than 1870 friends gathered to con-
graduate this aged couple, rich in years
and in Christian experience. as we'll as
In children and grandchildren. The Rev.
r. c. Moody and Mrs. Caroline Root
Moody were present; also Mr.. Henry Dut-
ton and wife of Portsmouth,. N. H., be-
sides many friends from adjoining towns
They were presented with sOsin gold by
the Craftsbury people, and this was swell
ed to 1855 by outside friends. Mr.. George
Howard presented an elegant gold headed
cane. Many letters of co~ngratulation were
received and the following poem written
by Mr.. John Il. Colburn, was read by
Mr.. Arthur Cole:
Spring hath it's south wind and mellow
The blooming bough and iutter of the
leaves
And summer hath its labor and its
mirth,
But autumn binds the sheaves.
Dawn brings the gladness of awakening
The %quickened heart throb and the will
to roam,
Noon brings us nearer to the things we
sought
But twilight brings us home.
Even so with you dear friends this time
is best;
Good was the part in which ye twain did
prove;
Sorrow that leads t%ogladness tiol to rest,
And love begetting love.
Yet this is better when we sit to view
Your own past lives made beautiful by
care
While children's children at your feet, re-
new
Tit youth we once did share,
So now the love We planted long ago
Hath sprung and grown around you with
out end;
Love Of the kinsmen; love Of those we
knew
OF child, and wife, and friend.
Through all the bygone moments that we
The hours have led you to this golden
prime
This happy moment, may 1t be to you.
The flower and crown of time,
And may the coming years with rich
increase
Bloom round you in the paths your feet
have trod
Until you waken in the radiant peace
OF the harvest time of God.

1.-The Navajo Indians are making bet.
ter blankets than ever before, but they

Howe Of Navajo, Arlz. They en-
ploy the same primitive methods In

SO, I suppose, as long as there Is one Of
them left. The women do the work.
but the men do the marketing. II han
been said that If the women had
charge of the marketing as we'll as the
making they would get more for their
work. I doubt whether this Is true or
not While the women are better
workers, and. in fact, do all the work
Of q mental kind, they show no more,
shrewdness In trade than do the men.
While the woilen do all OF the real
work they rarely see a cent OF the.
money derived from their toll. Their
arrogant lords Of the tepee appropriate
that. The wo-len are patient and doc
lie. You would suppose that If they,
are clever enough to make n blanket
that cannot be duplicated anywhere.
else on earth they would have sense
enough to assert their plain rights. but.
they never do.
There will never be a woman'sI
rights club in an Indian reservation,
for the women do not know that they
have any rights. They toll wei a
blanket and then they permit their
lazy, worthless husband TO sell it and
%squander the proceeds on whisky and.
on trinkets for personal adornment for
himself without a murmur. There are
many white men around the Navajo
settlements, and after firing up the
Indian in charge Of the blanket they,
purchase 1t from him for about one
third of it's value. Then they ship it
to some city. !
at is impossible to counterfeit n Nav
aJo blanket. Oven a tenderfoot ought
to be able to tell the difference. That.
being true, 1t would seem that the
Indian ought to be smart enough to do
more with them after they are made.j
When 1t is considered that the Nava-l
joes use the rudest methods of weav-'
ing, the opportunity for others to make
blankets equally good would appear
favorable, but it has never been done"

VERMONT'S
(From the Enosburgh Standard.)

~ bAt sAAkop| -
The third annual report of the directors
OF the Central Vermont Railway com
pany, for the fiscal year ending June 30.
1902, has been distributed. 1t should be
of great interest to the people of Vermont,
as nothing conduces so much in a mater
ial sense to the welfare and prosperity Of
the State as we'll managed transportation
companies.
Vermont Is very fortunate in the pres
ent ownership of It's transportation facili-
ties. On the north, the Canadian Pacific
controls the line from Richford to New
port. This Is a great corporation, con-
trolling some 10, 600 miles of railway. and
having an unlimited amount of capital
upon which to draw a marked change
from the financial condition of this com
pany 10 years ago, and which enables 1t
to keep the road up to the highest stan
dard of efficiency.
on the east side, the Boston & Maine,
controlling the Passumsic, the st. Johns
bury 81 Lake Champlain and the Vermont
Valley, gives first class facilities to its
patrons. IN the west. great changes have
been and are being made since the con-
troll OF the Rutland road has passed into
the close connection with the New York
Central. Formerly this road was merely
a branch of the Central Vermont. and
like all leased lines did not receive the
attention it deserved in developing the
territory adjacent to its line OF travel.
But now 1t is a trunk line from Montreal
to New York and Boston and is furnishing
the people on the west side of tho State
excellent service.
The Central Vermont, now owned by the
Grand Trunk, has, in the last three years,
made remarkable progress. when We con-
slider the physical condition of the road
when 1t passed into the hands of the pres
ent management. as compared with It's
condition at the present time. Nearly
81, 600, 900 has been expended In bringing
| the road up to a high state of efficiency,
and with the improvements now nearly
completed. it will rank with the very best
single track roads in New England.
The completion of the extensive inn
provement of its track will enabl the
management to increase the efficiency OF
its motive power and thus enlarge the
earning capacity of the road. We note
with much g~ratincation the fact that not
only is the main line being put in first
class condition. but the improvements on
the branch lines will be equally as great.
This will be welcome news to the peo-
pie along the line OF the Missiquoi Val
ley division, as radical repairs have beer
needed on this line for a long period OF
time.
Truly Vermont has noting to complain
Of as regards the railroad situation in
the state under the present arrangements.
