"AIIthe World Wondered"

Written for the HERALD)
When the burghers dared to take
Issue With earth's proudest state
All the world wondered
As they told their Bible story
In the face of England's glory
How some tLiIgs are right or wrong,
How the gold bought are not strong,
All the world wondered
When like leaves by temPests blown
Titled hosts We're overthrown
All the world wondered!
When for weary months aud years,
Written deep in blood and tears,
The unequal conflict lasted,
Afric's one bright promise blasted
Az the world wondered
When to outermost domain
England bound the captive's chain,
All the world wondered!
When to whitening lips more near
Pressed the dregs that mortals fear
Till the "cup of trembling" fell
Empty, like final knell,
All the world wondered
When, at last, on every side
English cannon in their pride
Nolleyed and Numbered,
With a cruelty as dire
As ere wrought in blood and fire
scattered, peeled, and meted out"
Till it crushed the patriots shout,
All the world wondered
When the present fades from sight
And the wise shall calmly write
Who it was thai Numbered,
Still will stand on histories page,
Like an English heritage
How the world with bated breath
As it watched this game of death
Shuddered as it wondered

Referendum Demanded

Important Action Taken by the Vermont
Anti-SalOon League.
The Vermont Anti-Saloon League
has published the following statement :
At a full meeting of the headquarters
committee of the State Anti.Saloon
League at the superintendent Office
Friday, June ID, the following resolution
was adopted as the unanimous expression
of the committee:
"Resolved, That Mr.. Morrow be in
structed on the part of the Vermont
Anti-Saloon League to urge the insertion
of referendum plank in the Republican
party platform at Montpelier, June 10,
and that this matter be published as
soon and as widely as may seem jul
dicious.'
The ultimate authority is with the
people. For fifty years the people of
Vermont by their chosen representatives
have maintained the law which forbids
the open saloon place among our bust
ness institutions. License papers, saloon
advocates in and out of the State regard
less of the sturdy refusal so constantly
reaffirmed to open the way for free
rum in Vermont, have long insisted that
the people want license, and in their la
ter appeals have tied referendum to the
license proposition. We believe that
the time is ripe to submit the question.
pure and simple, to the voters of the
State. Give us the referendum. Let the
question "Shall the traffic of intoxicat.
ing liquors be licensed in Vermont p
be referred to the voters, and let us
abide by the will of the majority. De
tails of ways and means, time and place,
will be attended to by the legislature Of
course, but let us have expression on
the proposition by thu State convention
at Montpelier, June 10. We have nc
reason to distrust the people. The
whole State is aroused over this matte,
today. Men who usually take little in
terest in political affairs are awake ant
interested. Let the people say by vot,
whether they welcome saloons, and the
question will be determined. The PEG
pie are the final arbiters. We believe
in the wisdom and judgment of the
people.

1T is often amusing to see men, wom-

large oranges within sight, they will
have them, even if it is necessary to
overturn all the rest in the box or bar
rel, and this is true with most all other
varieties that are sold by the piece or
dozen. They invariably get the poorest
specimens Of the whole crop and yet
are not aware of it. Very rarely you

When you consent to be placed on a
ticket,
When you have made up your mind
to run,
Leg it your best-the political ticket
Tears off your clothes, but makes lots
of fun.
If you are minus a vote or so,
Smooth it over and let it go.
Efforts and hope may be lighter or
grayer-
Either in politics, business or fame:
Things may be crooked, and friendships
may waver;
Nevertheless, the rule is the same.
Facts are facts. When you find it SO,
Smooth it over and let it go.

 Philip Martin of Thomaston was in iured on West Main street Saturday evening by falling off moving trolley car. The man was badly cut and bruised. After Dr Galley hand band aged up his wounds he was removed to the railroad station in Lunny's ambu- lance, where he took the 7:52 train for Thomaston.
 Michael Scu11y, aged 76 years, died last evening at his home on Cooke street. Besides his widow he leaves five children, Jeremiah B. of Jersey City, Patrick J. Of New Haven, Bridget, Michael and John of this city. MT Scully came to Waterbury from Lakeville in 1880 and two years later entered the employ of the water de partment and has worked for the city even since, the past ten years being devoted to the business of caretaker of the Cooke street reservoir, a posi- ton which he filled in a praiseworthy manner. The funeral will be held Wednesday,.

There is a boxing match .'on'' for some evening in the near fr- ture and he is bound in conscience to stop it, for he has a straight tip it's to be fight to a finish. Well, more power to MT Thrasher, and we sincere ly hope when he gets through with the boxers, he'll decide to stop over and give a lecture on good drinks; it wouldn't take him very long to show how much better a person will feel after partaking of some nice tea or coffee (the kind We sell. for instance) than they will after drinking the kind of drinks that often, yes, too often, puts a man behind the bars for so many days or months. Yes, it's easy for most anyone to see that tea or cof- fee (We mean the good kind) is the best drink for mankind. and also for woman. But the tea or coffee must be the good quality, else it's liable to drive a person to drink. In the lat ter case we think the unfortunate is excusable. Remember, when you purchase tea or coffee at our store it's guaranteed to suit or money back; Therefore it's plain to see we sell the good quality at the right price. By the way, if the butter you are eating is not the good kind, or the price too high, call at our store and buy a pound and mark the difference in fla vor of the kind sold at
