Political lines were drawn as
closely at the Fish and Game League
meeting as at campaign hurrah, and
according to reports there was
general strengthening out of the
Webb and Mccullough forces and
much talk, not of fish and game
laws or of the burning issue of pro-
hibition. The arriving delegates
were welcomed at the Webb or
Mccullough headquarters according
to their countersign, the Benning-
ton candidate beng on hand to ex-
tend welcome to all Corners. And
there seemed to be drift toward
Webb, though the report as to the
complexion of this notable gather
ing comes from the Webb camp or
from sources not unfriendly to the
Vanderbilt candidate. Though the
several counties of the state We're
pretty we'll represented at the feast,
there was considerable divergence OF
opinion and uncertainty as to the
verdict in some of them. Coming
down to Windsor county the Rut-
land Elcrald's reporter says:
The friends of the Bennington
county candidate claim that they can
make Il clean sweep of Windsor
county. A Webb man told your
correspondent tonight that they were
only two.thirds right, as Webb had
some very influential friends in
Windsor county, as will appear
when the caucuses are over. They
do not attempt, however, to dis
guise the fact that they have tough
proposition in that county as things
are today, but June skies often work
wonders on the most stubborn soil.

its statement that Fletch her d. Proc

There has been another accident
at the fatal Findley bridge crossing
near Bethel, and it again calls
attention to death trap that has
successfully withstood the talk, con-
situations and resolutions of sevcra
state railroad commissions. There
is not more dangerous railroad
crossing in Vermont and its record
calls for prompt action by the state,
county or town-for some method
of abolshing!the nuisance. "A team
approaching the crossing from one
direction passes through a bridge,
beyond which the highway runs
close to the track for several rods, a
curve covering the approach of a
train. a gong rings, but this highly
ingenious safety appliance also has
its terrors, as the gong generally
frightens Il horse. The horse runs.
If it reaches the crossing ahead of the
train, we'll and good. If not, some
thing happens to the occupants OF
the team. Coming the other way
the traveller has Il better show, but
if he crosses the track safely he is
face to face with locomotive and
the brook is popular resort for
plunsins, frightened horses. 1t is
good deal like war, and the public
calls for cessation Of hostilities.

notes for it, with written prom
