The Addison County Fair

|
The Addison county fair will be held
Sept. 3, a, D. Indications point ITO the
largest fair in the IS years history of
the society. The grounds and building
have been thoroughly repaired and reno
waited, and are now the equal of any in
Vermont.
In order to encourage better entries in
the races, 500 has been added to the
purses In the free -for-all and 2 :25 classes.
Secretary G. 5. Dana has received letter
from Col. E. d. Dimmick in command at
Fort Ethan Allen stating that two troops
of cavalry, numbering so men, under
command of Capt. c. j. Stevens will be
present. They will travel by way of
Bristol. arriving In Mddebury Tuesday
night or Wednesday morning, and will
be quartered on the fair grounds through
out the fair. Besides the usual display
in the various departments, there Will be
many novel exhibits. Music will be fur
nished by the Ethan Allen band of 20
pieces
In addition to the original purchase
price of $1,000, Col. Illsley has loaned the
society $1,000, all of which has been ex-
pended in improvements. Beyond this
he has personally expended more than
S2500 In improving and identifying the
grounds. The thanks of the Addison
County Agricultural society, and of the
citizens of Mddlebury and Addison
county as well. are due to Col. Illsley
for his generosity and public spirit in
furnishing the means for transforming
the delapidated Playground property
into a model of convenience and utility.

CLOSING OF CAMPAIGN.
Republicans Confident of Elect
ing: State Ticket.

This week practically closes the most
remarkable campaign Vermont has
ever seen. A few rallies will be held
by the different parties Monday, but the
day will be generally devoted by the
leaders and workers to perfecting the
details for getting out the full vote.
Indications now point to the largest
vote ever cast In the state.
The Republicans are supremely con-
fident Of electing the entire ticket by the
people and big majority of the mem
bers of the House of Representatives
The Senate will be nearly so,dly re-
publican.
The outlook has unquestionably i'm
proved greatly In the past week. The
charges that Clement workers attempted
to bribe voters and delegates-to-be in
Orange and other towns has not been
denied. The sad spectacle that Rev.
Sam Small made at Brattleboro, wher
he attempted to speak Monday nighe
while the worse for liquor, has mater
tally dampened the Clement enthusiasm.
Clement admits that the Small affair
however, that he will receive over 80,
900 votes out of about 10000 and be
elected by the people. He says that
nothing can prevent the legislature
from being overwhelmingly for local
option and high license
The democrats are not making many
claims, but expect to poll good vote.
The Prohibition party leaders claim
that they will poll the largest vote ever
cast In the state, or about 5000 votes.
This is the fairest statement possible
at this writing after carefully reading
the claims of all parties.
The Republicans urge the voters to
be particularly careful to vote the
straight republican ticket from top to
bottom and to vote for no one on anv
ticket that has any other designation
than "Republican." Every effort will
be made to elect Clement men under the
guise of local option, etc, etc.
Vote the republican ticket.

When Mr., Shaw became secretary Of
the treasury there was a minor en-
ploye of the department named Mike
whost duties were so multifarious and
complicated that he had come to be
regarded as indispensable. About
once in two months Mike got on a
spree and was discharged, but was al
ways taken back when things in his
particular sphere went wrong. Mr..
Shaw learned of this and asked the
delinquent's immediate superior:
"What would you do If Mike were
dead?" "Oh, suppose we would have

SWELL so far as this department is con-
cerned Mike is dead So begin and

the simplest way of raising the cash.
The demolition of trees at various
points along the route has also given
rise to concern and protest, for London
is poor enough in foliage at the best.
However, London crowds on such oc-
casions show both good humor and
voluntary discipline. Instead OF Great
ing difficulties, their aim seems to be
to assist the police and cooperate with
them, as far as possible; and the police
on their part do what they can to recip
rocate these friendly sentiments.
The Police Question.
For this reason, if for no other, it is
satisfactory to know that proposal to
bring up to London provincial police
men to assist in the street work has
been abandoned. The Londoner is eX-
tremely conservative in some respects,
and though he will put up with good
deal from his own police in the matter
of Stand back, here" or pass along,
there" he would bitterly resent being
ordered about and dictated to by police
men with broad Suffolk accent or a
Sussex stare. Of course, the bulk OF
the metropolitan police are countrymen
born and bred. but they are countrymen
with the London polish on. remem

he was Police Commissioner that he
did not care about Cockneys on the

miles, and as most of the thoroughfare'
are reasonably wide there ought to b.

The same genius suggests that tempo
rary light railways should be run
parallel to the professional route on
either side, in order that they"-the
thousands of Hindus- may get a. good
view" This excellent Madrassi must
have but faint noion of what crowd

NO DOUBT OF INSANITY OF ANIMALS

Animals go crazy just like human
beings. said an observant citizen,
"and | have seen some rather curious
instances in my time | have often
wondered why some man who makes
a special study of animal psychology
hasn't taken the subject up. Really
here is a good field for some scientist
who is fond of speculating on such
subjects. ! recall the case of horse
who displayed unmistakable evidences
OF insanity. The horse was moody.
He was fine animal, almost perfect
physically, and went all the gaits. He
was one of the best buggy horses |
ever saw, and could trot mile in a
jiffy. About once a month he would
get into an unhappy mood. There was
no doing anything with him. He would
not obey any of the usual commands.
He was simply wild. He would run
away in a minute. One day his owner
and friend went out for a drive. 1t
was one of the bad days with the horse
1t was one OF his crazy days. He be-
came unmanageable and ran away
The owner was badly bruised and his
friend was killed. The horse was bad
ly crippled by running off of bridge.
He was so badly hurt that he was not
of much good afterward He was un-
quCstionably crazy. | have seen other
animals display the same weakness. I
have seen crazy cats, crazy dogs, crazy
cows and crazy animals of various
kinds, and it seems to me that there is
a good field here for some man who
takes an interest in such matters. -
