Deserved Tribute to Senator Dilling'
ham.

A handsome as we'll as deserved tribute
to the services of the Hon. William p.
Dillingham; in the United States Senate is
paid by the Washington correspondent OF
the Boston Transcript. who says:
"Of the new men few have had a chance
to make notable speeches Perhaps Mr..
Dillingham; Of Vermont has made the most
distinct reputation as forceful and at
tractive speaker, and his committee as
signments have happened to bring him
into relation with much of the important
work of the session. He bids fair to fully
sustain tho high tradition which Vermont
has long maintained in the state"
1t is to be noted in this connection that
this testimony comes from an entirely dis
Interested source, and that it is therefore
to be all the more highly priced by the
host of friends and admirers of Senator
Dillingham;. When those in position to
know directly whereof they speak have
this to say of a Vermont senator, who is
lust beginning his national career, his con-
stituents have no reason to take thought
for his future

THE CLEMENT DETECTION
Republican Papers Generally CONDEMN
the Recreancy OF the Marble
City Bolter.
trrom the St. Adams Mcsscngcr)

It is difficult to understand upon what
ground Percival w. Clement will justify
his apparently premeditated bolt from the
decision of the republican State convention.
His leader on the floor of the convention,
after what is understood to be confer
once with Mr. Clement, formally accepted
the liquor Law plank in the platform, so
that the principle he is contending for or
was supposed to be contending for, has
been recognized to his satisfaction thus
publicly expressed. So far as his personal
desire to be governor of Vermont is con-
cerned, Mr.. Clement must take his chances
like other men. The Messenger does not
retract one word of the former charges
that the ante-convention canvass was the
most corrupt in the memory of the genera
ton now active in politics, but Mr.. Glenn
ent should remember that he went into
that convention and recognized its legality
to the extent of Contesting in two ballots
for the nomination, and there is every rea-
son to suppose that, Notwithstanding his
present dcuunciation of rottenness and COR
ruption, he would have accepted The NOM

The square and manly statement Of Dr.
Webb in regard to his attitude In the cam
paign for governor is what we shoc!d
have expected Of him. He has had some
what intimate personal and business rcla-
lions with Mr.. Clement, but he sees no rea-
son why he should support him in his pres
ent reckless and unjustifiable attempt to
divide and break down the republican party
Of this State. The rumors to the contrary,
started by Interested and irresponsible par
ties, whose wishes were father to the
thought, have gained sufficient currency
to call for some notice from DR.. Webb
and his statement of his position as loyal
republican is sufficiently explicit. 1t is
the position of honorable men in the re-
publican ranks, throughout the State, and
we have yet to hear of a leading or promi-
nent Vermont republican who is not stand
ing squarely by his party standards.

plete lack OF generalship. but Clement
himself also appeared to be wholly at sea
First in the afternoon Of the convention he
said he would be a candidate for governor
on an Independent ticket. If his followers
wanted him to run. In the evening he
thought mistake had been made, and he
advised his supporters to go home and
think 1t over.
Later he found that the republican IT,.
cense men were not thinking In the right
direction, and he accordingly had some Of
his trusted lieutenants, both republican
and democratic go about the State to see
what could be done. In response to their
opportunities meetings of local option
clubs. were called in different places. and
some of these clubs by the way include a
very large proportion of democrats. The
members of the Barre club first announced
that they thought bolt would be inadvis-
able. but If Clement ran they would sup
port him. Most of the leading spirits of
the burlington club talked on the street
that they we're opposed to bolt. Finally
4 meeting of some of the faithful was called
ut Rutland and Mr.. Clement found him
self reluctantly ca drafted" to head a
bolt
While this political vacllation on the
part of Mr.. Clement has been slowly pro.
crossing, people have been realizing that
his apparent republican strength was rap
idly dissipating, as the spirit OF fair play
began to exert itself; and to day he stands
without a distinctive issue which the re-
publicans of Vermont as a whole have not
undertaken to settle, and with no hope OF
success save in the united support of the
entire democracy of Vermont and what
republicans he can allure away from their
party allegiance.
Mr.. Clement therefore not only STAMPS
| himself as an irregular republican, ready
to disrupt his party with all which that
signifies as regards the future, and sur
renders his place in the regular republican,
ism of Rutland county, but he also pro-
| poses to Clementize the democrats of the
entire State and put them where Col. Il. b
Smalley can boast that he Is the Demo-
cratic party of Vermont, for all the res,
VIII he irregulars, ana they will so find

ing others disclosed by indiscreet lieuten-

become the cause of another case. The Of
ilcer should then take steps to conflne the
disease to its original grounds.
The speaker said that the State board Of
health had specified two classes Of quar-
antlne, one being the fun and the other
the modified. The full quarantine includes
such diseases rs small poX, dipntherid,
scarlet fever and typhus. Patients with
such diseases should be confined in large
rooms with as little furniture as possible
The patient should remain in the room I'M
til he RECEIVERS or dies and after the room
is vacant everything in it should DC thor
oughly disinteCted.
Each infectious disease is dangerous
from the first and the full quarantine
should be imposed as soon as the disease
Is diagnosed The time when the quar-
antine should end varies according to the
disease but is one Of the most important
question relative to quarantine and should
not be regarded lightly by the health Of
ficer.
The quarantine is not complete until the
rooms occupied by the patient have been
Thoroughly funigated. II the patient mas
been confined in one or two rooms diSnt, C.
ton is greatly simplilcd as the remainder
| of the house does not require such thor
| oueh treatment as would be the case If the
patient were changed from room TO room
the quarantine, to be eltcctual, must effect
| every member of the family except those
who elect to live elsewhere while the lsold-
ton is in progress.
The geographical limits of quarantine
in this state are usually confined To the
premises where the patient lives or Is con-
tined This rule varies according to the
nature of the disease and the location of
| the promises.
| In speaking of isolation hospitals Dr.
| CaVerly said that il was obvious that II
every community had an isolation hospital
that the question of quarantine would he
greatly simplihed. lie said that it would
be impossible for all small towns to have
such a hospital but that all counties should
have such an institution. 1t should not be
an old abandoned house but one well hit
| ted for the pun pose.
Under the head of modified quarantine
| Dr. CaVerly said the State board had plac-
ed measles and whooping cough. These
diseases are not fatal and not SO easily
communicated as others and the board has
not considered ii wise to enforce such
stringent rules in regard to these diseases
as in others.
The paper closed with advice to the
health officers in regard to quarantining
the modified forms and relative to posting
cards of warning. A general discussion
| followed.
| DIR. Samuel VI. Durgin, health officer of
Boston, was the second speaker in the af-
ternoon, his subject being "Schoolhouse
| Sanitation" His paper was made up en-
| tirely of suggestions relative to the SAM

Burlington as a Convention City.

Our educators are naturally elated over
the manner in which visitors to the Amer
lean Institute of Instruction were enter
tanned. and they express the belief that
the result will be the spreading abroad of
the attractions OF Burlington as a conven-
ton city. The meeting was much more
successful than that held at Saratoga last
year. the go members registered here hav-
ing constituted only a portion Of the num-
Der who took advantage of this opportu-
nifty to visit Burlington. 1t is also worthy
OF note that the registration was larger
than that Of any year since 1894 with SIN
gle exception, when the meeting was held
by our public school facilities and partic
ularly by our new high school, and the
same Is true regarding the University OF
Vermont Both of these institutions will
receive marked benefit from the excellent
advertising they are thus certain to re-
ceive. The visitors were also profuse In
their expression OF appreciation Of Bur
lingtons hospitality. as well as OF the
scenic attractions, and the delightful side
trips to be enjoyed. The lesson OF all this
Is that we cannot afford to neglect IA sin

Mr.. Clements Candidacy.

Percival w. Clement is at present con-
Quoting the transparent farce Of inviting
himself to run for governor as an indepen-
dent candidate, His agents have been &C
tive in various quarters getting up pc
titions to him to run, and organizing OF
revving local option clubs, to secure turn
outs to a mass meeting to be held In this
city about the middle of this month tc
formally confirm his decision to be a can
didate. He will then nominate himself and
accept his nomination.
Several things are to be noted in con.
nection with this situation.
In the first place Mr.. Clement cannot
honorably be a candidate for governor His
delegates to the republican State conven-
ton were in considerable proportion
chosen by fraud-the fraud of packing re-
publican caucuses with democrats. Never
theless they all took their seats UNI

as to secure an abundance of sunlight.
The speaker dwelt at length upon the
sanitation of the basement saying that it
was the most important part Of the build
ing. The floors Of the basement should b.
hard and smooth and we'll supplied with
traps There should be windows on all
sides Of the basement and the air should
be hot and dry. He also offered a number
of suggestions relative to other parts OF
the building. \ general discussion followed
