THE LEGISLATURE. AND THE
REFERENDUM.

In reply to inquiries made by a
representative Of the Vermont
Homan's Suffrage Association con-
erniDg the proposed referendum of
license law, to the people, by the
pmiDg legislature, Hon. Jonathan
oss replies in part as'follows:
"I suppose what is proposed by the
Psolution of the Vermont Republican,
bnvention is an expression Of opinion
the subject OF high license and
cal option in preference to the pro
bitory law. The people cannot
pact nor repeal law by direct vote.
bat must be done through the legis-
ture. II the legislature desires to
btain their views on any subject
|rther than IL Is expressed through
|e members of the legislature, it can
so in any manner it may select, to
the voters, or to all the people to
affected thereby, of a certain age.
hink the women of age ought to be
nsulted % much as the men. AS q
le they are more seriously affected
the "drink habit" of the men. In
" Judgment the bottom cause of
Dre than half the divorces, with the
bastrous family results following,
me from the husbands drinking.
hnY crimes and much poverty come
pm the same habit.
In 1852 the form of referendum used
" this: The legislature enacted the
obibitory law to take effect the fol-
. wing March, if the majority of the
ters in the state SO voted, at a meet
2 to be held, think, in February.
the majority was against its taking
ect, then the law was not to take
ect until after the next session of
legislature, so it could repeal the
", in accordance with the wishes of
majority. 1t lies entirely with
legislature to determine to whom
will submit the question to obtain
views of the people. A strong
. tition to the legislature to have the
|men the right to express their
ws with the men, would be entirely
Pper, in my view.

been in the mill business for "a years
10 Vermont, and have never seen a

hat use liquor about our place. The
worst thing that could happen to our
community would be a saloon. We
would want it quarantined and an
rmed guard around it. A man that
as slandered and ridiculed his state
8 Mr. Clement has ought to be ban
shed from the state. No law abiding

anction the opening of saloon.

Death from Peculiar Accident.
Frank Skodowski, of Proctor, Po-
lander, about twenty-six years old,
who has been in this country only
since March last, lost his life early
Tuesday afternoon by getting on top
of pile of sand some 30 feet long by
80 feet wide and ten feet high and
then being drawn by the sand into
a wooden sbute from which the teams
in the mill are loaded, the sand filling
in after him and suffocatiug him with
in short time. How the accident
happened is unknown as the man
was alone on the upper floor, OF the
mill where the sand heap is situated.
The Case of Clarence Adams.
Clarence Adams, the Chester bur-
glar, was arraigned in Windham
county court Wedne sday afternoon
and pleaded guilty to six informa tions
charging him with burglary in the
night time and one charging grand
larceny. The respondent was con-
veyed to the court in a wagon and
sat in low arm chair during the pro
ceedings, showing little life or ex-
preston in face or voice as he ans
wered "guilty" seven times. Adams
was represented by Frank Plumley of
Northtield, w. B. G. Sticksey of
Bethel and F. @. Davis of Springfield.
A brief statement was made by States
Attorney Tarbell, who urged that
there were no mitigating circum-
stances in Adams crimes and that
the penalty should be severe.
Both Messrs. Stickney and Plumley
spoke Tor the respondent, urging that
some consideration was due him for
making a clean breast of the affair,
and for the reparation he was ready
to make. Mr.. Plumley said that, had
he pleaded not guilty, he would,
according to precedent, have been
tried for only one offense and if con-
victed the other cases would have
been dropped. He. thought the
respondent should be treated now as
he would have been under other cir
cumstances. Adams had nothing to
say why sentence should not be
passed upon him, and for the burglary
of Pollard & Carpenters store on
July 10 of this year, he was sentenced
to bard labor in States prison for not
less than nine nor more than ten
years. The other cases against
him were continued.

was nice, quiet girl without any nonsense
about her and attended to the wants of her
patrons with regularity and promptitude,
relates the Chicago Chronicle.
One evening after she had retired for the
night the landlord informed the company
that this was the last night she would wait
upon them, as she was going to be married
next day. When the landlord had gone out
Jimmie Hughes, the young man referred to,
got up and said he thought it only right
that they should show their appreciation Of
ner services by making her little present
on this suspicious occasion. He took sheet
OF paper, wrote his name down for 5000 and
passed it round. The girl was popular and
the idea caught on and when it came round
again to generous Jimmie the total amount
ed to something over $1,000. They sum
moned the landlord, handed over the
amount to him and asked him to give it to
Miss White next morning with their hearty
good wishes for her happiness. Next day
she was married and the happy bridegroom

as follows:
"Isufered for years with pain In

that felt encouraged.
"Itook 1t faithfully for seven weeks

The great popularity of Peruna as q
catarrh remedy has tempted many
people to initiate Peruna. A great
many so-called catarrh remedies and
catarrhal tonics are to be found in
many drug-stores. These remedies can
be procured by the druggist much
cheaper than Peruna. Peruna can only
be obtained at uniform price, and no
druggist can get it cent cheaper.
Thus it is that druggists are tempted
to substitute the cheap limitations of
Peruna for Peruna. It is done every
day without a doubt.
