from the fact that 1t has been sustained
by increasing maiorities at every election
since 1t was adopted. the last time by a
two thirds vote.
In comparing the system with the law
in this state in should be remembered
that the town is the unit here and the
county there. 1t would be for each town
here to say whether it wanted liquor sold
or not and each town so voting would re-
ceive all the profit from such sales to be
used as it might determine.
The state would control the business
appoint the agents in the several towns
buy the liquors in bulk; bottle and seal
the same, thus guaranteeing its purity,
and supply the several towns voting to
have liquors sold by state agents.

a New EIementinC Campaign.

A new element has entered into this
remarkable campaign. The women Of
Ludlow. headed by Mrs. Gov. w. w.
Stickney, have organized to make their
influence felt in the election of town rep.
resentative. The despatch says that, as
a result of canvass of that town. eight
ninths of the women over twenty-one
years Of age have signed the resolutions
given below and that it is the purpose of
the women to carry this organization into
every town in the state.
If the women of the state do take this
matter up on the lines laid down by their
sisters in Ludlow, it will be a serious
factor in the coming election. While the
women cannot vote, the silent influence
that they can exercise, when thoroughly
aroused and organized, is not to be light
ly estimately.
The address and resolutions are as fol-
lows.
"a large number of the women of Lud-
low, believing that the time had
come when the women of Vermont
should not remain silent concerning the
retention of the present prohibitory law
issued call for meeting. AT this
meeting the following resolutions were
UNANIMOUSLY adopted:
Resolved, That we are in sympathy with
and in favor of the present prohibitory law;
that we do not believe that a local option law
would do away with any evils that exist under
the present law, but instead would increase
them; nor is there any reason why our town
should be brought low by saloons; that with
one voice we protest against a high license
law and the evils that always 60 with the sa-
loon, and that we plead for a strict enforce
ment of the present law.
BY vote of the meeting, these resolu
lions were to be presented at every home
in the town, and an executive committee
was appointed to supervise the canvass.
The result has been that eight-ninths of
the women of the town, over q years
of age, have signed these resolutions,
thus signifying their earnest desire that
Vermont should not become guilty of
bringing licensed saloons within her
borders. Newspapers are a great factor
but they can only agitate. Surely, the
efforts of the women in town ought to
outweigh the newspapers In the same
territory. The liquor power neither
slumbers nor sleeps. Let us be as Wig
liant and make this state movement
viii you not cooperate, and make q
beginning at once in your own town
Do it today"

Pe-ru-na is a natural and efficient

their natural strength and the blood
vessels begin at once to regulate the

Catarrh Cured.
All phases of catarrh, acute or chronic,

1t is through its operation upon the

tanned such a worldwide reputation as a
sure and reliable remedy for all phases
of catarrh wherever located.

1t does pay to advertise. The Vermont
maple sugar market made an exhibit at
the Pan American Exposition last year
and advertised genuine Vermont maple
sugar and syrup. Hon. V. |. Spear of
Randolph, the manager, says: 1--WE
had to notify our agent at Chicago to
stop taking orders" he said, "for there
is not enough Vermont maple sugar left
to supply the ordinary demand of the
market" Since the Buffalo exposition
where Vermont had handsome exhibit
of maple products, orders have come in
thick and fast from dealers in the west
who patronized the exposition and saw the
Vermont maple sugar for the first time
In their lives. 1t was big advertise
ment for the Vermont industry, and its
effects will be of value to the Vermont
grower for years to come. Maple sugar
remains about the same in price as a
year ago, but the scarcity of the article
will probably bring up the value" If II

New Hampshire believes in encourage
ing distinguished people to spend at
least a part of the year among her
beautiful hills, and, if they are worthy
and well qualified, is not afraid to honor
them, and the state, if they make it their
legal residence, with election to high
offices. The latest instance is the prob
able unanimous election of the great
novelist, Winsted Churchill, to the New
Hampshire legislature. That state re-
ceives annually more money from sum-
mer people than all of the other New
England states combined as the result
of this liberal policy. Vermont is SC
foolish. or some of her citizens are, as
to question the right of distinguished
citizen to hold state Office after thirty
years continuous residence among the
green hills of this state.

Dana Hall was kicked by horse Saturday
morning and had his leg broken between the
knee and ankle He was driving one of
Holbrook's grays on the express team and
was accompanied by IIolbrook's dog, which
sat on the seat beside him. In crossing a
water bar the dog was thrown from the
wagon, falling upon the horses back and
heels which SO frightened the animal that he
began to kick and run. The horse landed
one kick over the crosshar, striking Dan on
the leg. The leg was broken so severely that
the bone protruded through the flesh DIR.
Nv. Peck was called and set the bone.

LOCAL OPTION IN SOUTH CAROLINA.


In response to letter from the editor
asking for statement concerning the
working of the South Carolina system,
Senator Tillman sent the Register an
article published in the FRANK Leslie's
Monthly for January fully answering
the inquiry.
This will be found in another column
and will bear careful study.
Contrary to the general impression, it
will be seen that the South Carolina
system Is local option system. No
county need have dispensary unless it
wants it, and so votes, and many have
prohibition now.
1t will be noticed that the difference
between this system and high license is
that under the South Carolina system
the state controls the traffic and the tow
gets the profit instead of the individual.
Any one who has the price can buy as
readily under one system as the other
AS Senator Tillman says "No attempt is
made to prevent the use of liquor"
Under both high license and this sys
TEN sales are forbidden to minors and
habitual drunkards; anyone else can buy
as much and as often as they please, but
= only for cash.
Under this system there can be ne
treating and no liquors can be drank IL
the dispensary. Thus the evils arising
from treating, that is forbidden by law
in several high license states, is materi
ally lessened. Liquors can be purchased
and treating done outside the dispensary
it is true, but not as at an open bar in {
saloon.
A careful study of this system as Sc
forth in this article will show that it ha
many advantages over other systems TO-
regulating the traffic in intoxicating
liquors.
1t has been in force In that state for tel
years and has thus had fair trial.
1t is opposed by three classes, the pro
hibitionists, who want absolute prohbi
ton, the rum sellers who want to max
the profit instead of the state and town
and the high license advocates who wan
a change.
That the tax payers like it, is eyiden

IN THE GARDEN,

is simply that the beds belong to the pupils.
So. daily three hundred children play on
devices purposely placed at the very edge
of the gardens without in any way modest
ing them.
But it is not the garden that amuses-
that is three years old; not the garden
that makes the yard the subject of night
It's the 'paratus. as the kids" call It,
which tickles their fancy. This apparatus
is in the boys yard, and combines a climbing
ladder, a sliding parallel bar, a swing two
flying rings. horizontal bar and two climb
ing poles. Under 1t all is the sand pile SO
that injury from fall which might other
wise prove hurtful is always averted. And
they are daring youngsters, these south
westers. They can climb like cats, run like
deer and jump like everything You
can't outdare or Guido them. Besides the
'paratus. the boys have a chute landing
them from an elevation into the sand.
They also have quoits and a ten-pin alley,
where the balls roll down hill to the pins.
Provision for the Girls.
In the girls yard are three swings, two
hammocks, ten-pin alley sand chute,
a mother shelter" three seesaws and
plenty of tennis balls, and they have sand
TO roll and revel in. Best of ALL this ap-
paratus and equipment nearly all repre-
urdays, when they gather to build or put
in order the playground. All scraps Of ma
terial-eyerything tangible at hand-are
used for some purpose, and in consequence
minds are put to work inyenting games
and appliances The work on all the sheds
shingling and all, was done by boys. The
