THE PORTLAND ROAD.

For some reason or other EX Parte
has come out with long winded edi-
torial in opposition to the building of
the new Portland road. Whether the
editor of that paper suddenly saw n
great light. or whether he was in
iiuenced" does not appear. However
it was noticed that on the day after
the great literary effort appeared the
editor of Elk Parte appeared in a brand
new suit of clothes and a nobby over
coat.
county commissioners and the several
hundred petitioners for the new road,
Elk Parte argues that over a hundred
men have lost their positions as re-
suit of the attempt to open the road.
That may be true. However. that as
the case. There are other matters in
point.
The people of Florence are anxious
to see every institution of Florence
prosper so that as many men as posi-
BILE may be employed. Every busi-
uess man of Florence recognizes the
importance of this. But the people
have some interests that must be pro-
tected ms we'll as those of corporations.
The Florence Oil and Refining com
pany and the Boston Land aud Cattle
company, which are blocking prog
ing to deny to the people of Florence
what they have right 10 demand and
expect to receive, are of little benefit
to the city aside from their compare
lively small pay rolls. Through the
city and around the city these cor
porations have reservations which
they refuse to bring into the corporate
limits of the city thus escaping mu-
nicipal taxes-taXes levied to support
public utilities and improvements
which the owners of these reserva-
tions enjoy and are benefited by.
About an eighth of AL acre of one of
these reservations right in the heart
of the city will be effected by the
Portland road. and the corporations
named even make fight on that
small parcel of land. In this counec-
tion it is also true that the editor of
Ex Parte, who so suddenly finds him
self opposing the Portland road, lives

from the amount of advertising pat
rouage his efforts are appreciated by
the business men of Salida.

The Management Of Wives.

The management OF husbands is one
OF the stock questions Of discussion ut
the women's clubs and congresses, but
so far as known II is no nearer solu-
ton ths. IL was in the benighted days
before women's clubs came TO enlight-
en- and delight the world. Men, wheth-
er at their clubs or elsewhere, rarely
discuss the management OF wives.
This may be due TO the fact that they
never manage them or possibly TO the
further fact that, as no two women are
alike. different method Is necessary
in each individual case. and therefore
no system covering a sufficient number
of cases to make basis for discussion
could be devised.
However. an experiment In the man.
agement of wives is being tried in one
of our new possessions which at least
has the merit and virtue of novelty
whether or not II brings practical re-
suits. Here is the case: One Sugimura,
japanese. living at Waiakea, in Ha-
wall. was thoroughly in love with his
wife. He was also lover of truth.
The Suglmura household was recently
rent with internal dissension. growing
out of jealousies and misunderstood
ings. The husband believed that his
spouse had told him untruths. He
therefore wrote her a sweet little note,
inclosing his little finger. which he had
neatly cut Off with a meat ak. He told
her that she had been guilty of ten
lies; that he had ten fingers and would
cut one off each day until she promised
not to tell falsehoods any more.
The reply of Mrs. Sugimura is not
recorded nor the number OF fingers sac
rificed up TO this writing. Husbands
who contemplate the adoption of this
plan for the management OF theil
wives would perhaps do well to await
the receipt Of further Hawaiian ad
! vices.

CHAMBERLAlN'S MISSION.
What He Hopes to Accomplish by
His Visit to South Africa.

The determination of Joseph Cham
berlain, colonial secretary of Great
Britain. to visit South Africa and see
with his own eyes the exact state of
affairs there has aroused much discus
sion in England and has centered the
eyes of John Bull on this most original
and versatile statesman.
1t is bold step of Mr.. Chamber
lain's to thus depart from precedent
and tradition. 1t dislocates the consti-
tutional machine by temporarily re-
moving q secretary of state from his
Office and from parliament. The SEES
sion of 1903, though it may be post
poned, is pretty sure to begin before
the month of March, but the disloca,
ton Of the machine is of very small i'm
portance when compared with the
peace and prosperity of South Africa,
and the practical Inconvenience in Eng
land will be very small.
Mr.. Chamberlain will go to South
Africa in the most magnificent of the
kings ships, a ship fittingly named the
Good Hope and presented to the en-
pire by Cape Colony itself. The secre,
tary's hope, after personal investiga'
ton, is to do the empires great task OF
setting South Africa triumphantly or
its way.
If Mr.. Chamberlain realizes his
hopes. it will be but the prelude to q

The Best Remedy for Group.

[From the Atchinson. Kan. Daily Globe.l
This is the season when the woman
who knows the best remedies for Group
is in demand in every neighborhood,
One of the most terrible things in the
world is to be awakened in the middle
of the night by whoop from one of
the children. The Group remedies are
almost as sure to be lost, in case of Group,
as a revolver is sure TO be lost in case of
burglars. There used to be an old.
fashioned remedy for Group, known as
hive syrup and tolu, but some modern
mothers say that Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy is better, and does not cost so
much. 1t causes the patient to "throw
up the phlegm" quicker, and gives re-
lief in a short time. Give this remedy
as soon as the Group cough appears and
it will prevent the attack. 1t never fails
and is pleasant and safe to take. For

THANKSGIVING.

Thanksgiving has lost much of it's
early significance as day of devotion,
but what it has lost in that direction
has been more than made up, we like to
think, in the cultivation of the humane
ties and the exercise of that practical
religion which brings help and cheer to
the sick, and the destitute 1t is at
such season that our kindlest in.
stincts can have full scope for expression
without let or hindrance when all the
associations and influences of the time
invite our better selves to stand out in
visible expression by substantial acts OF
thoughtful kindness. 1t is a time tc
feel akin not only with all the world but
with all the needy of the world, and es
pecially with those of our own com
munity. Nothing conduces> so mucl
to keen and healthy appetite for {
good old-fashioned Thanksgiving dinner

family reunion that goes with it, as the
quiet consciousness that you have had ;

An impossible Barber.

The Jersey City barber who shaved
eighteen men In eight minutes ana sew
en- seconds has demonstrated that ne
knows little of the qualifications requi-
site for the conducting OF a first class
tonsorial parlOr. His ability to shave
two men and a fraction every minute
shows remarkable technique and skill
OF a certain kind. So far as the dispatch
o. state. the eighteen men may have
pe>n shaved as well as though this
lightning artist had taken fifteen min
utes to scrape the face OF each Gus
toner. But this is unimportant
Aside from getting shaved, which is
purely incidental, men go TO barber
shops for two essential purposes. One
of these is TO read through and commit
TO memory the jokes in the copy OF the
last years comic paper which Is lnvari-
ably found in every well regulated bar
Der shop. That the customer may have
plenty of time for this delectable occu-
patton the barber should move with
the utmost deliberation. The other
and by far the most important object
he has In view in visiting barber shop
is to acquire information upon such
various and varied subjects as the cru
dite savant of the razor may at the
time have on tap.
What would become of these two
requisites In the hands Of a barber
who shaved eighteen men In eight min
utes and seven seconds? The customer
would hardly have time to reach for
the tattered copy of the priced period
ical before he would be next and the
porter would be hustling him into the
chair. Then there would come a few
swishing sounds, and in an instant
more he would find himself paying the
cashier and tipping the boy with the
whiskbroom without having received q
scintilla of enlightenment on the great
questions which agitate the country
From the supposedly unfailing reser.
voir Of knowledge he has received nc
words of wisdom. The main purpose
of his visit has been frustrated. How
can the customer feel other than thai
he has been cheated-that he has not
got the worth of his money? Clearly
the Jersey City shaver is not wise t.
his Job" He might do we'll In vaude
vile, but he does not possess the essen
tial qualities Of barber.

LETTER FROM MONTPELIER.
SPECIAL TO The HERALD.
November Is, 1902

Events are crowding each other nova
days at the capital.
The large committees are having fire.
quent and protracted meetings in the
resolute effort to clear their desks and
get ready for adjournment before
Thanksgiving.
,, A large amount of routine work was
pushed through in both houses today.
In the afternoon considerable interest
was manifested in very lively debate
in the Senate over the game bill pro-
viding bounties for killing hedgehogs
and foxes. Senator Emory of Orange
appeared as the champion of the poul-
try man and impeached "Reynard" as
being the worst turkey thief in the
country, and the Senate imposed a
bounty of $l.25 on all foxes caught be-
tween April and September.
The weekly payment bill received
very earnest consideration in public
hearing before the General Committee
The committee listened to Judge H. II.
Powers, Hon. John Young, Hon. j. l..
Martin and several representatives of
the labor organizations, among others
Representative Lawrence of Rutland.
The House Committee of Agriculture
again wrestled with the tuberculosis bill,
a majority of one favoring the Senate
bill, and the minority making a report.
This evening there was caucus of
the members of the House to discuss the
majority license bill. This bill will
come to its third reading in the Senate
tomorrow. Last evening there was a
public hearing in Representatives Hall
very largely attended, before the iudici
airy committee at which Mr.. Davitt and
Hon. Frank Pumley pleaded for the life
of the murderer, Charles Dougherty, or
the ground of insanity, Will A. Lord fol
the state. Tom Maloney of Rutland also
plead for the life of Eastwood, on the
same ground. All the legal gentlemen
rose to their opportunity, and the plea

Disastrous Wrecks.

Carelessness is responsible for many a
railway wreck and the same causes are
making human wrecks of sufferers from
throat and lung troubles. But since the
advent of DR.. Kings New Discovery for
consumption, coughs and colds, even the
worst cases can be cured and hopeless
resignation is no longer necessary. Mr..
Lois Cragg of Dorchester, Mass, is one
of many whose lite was saved by DR..
Kings New Discovery. This great
remedy is guaranteed for all throat and

The somewhat disgusting discovery
has been made by Mr.. Newell, hydrog-
rapher of the United States geological
survey, who is In charge of the plans
for the Inauguration of the irrigation
project approved at the last session of
congress, that spectators have pre-
empted much of the land to be re-
claimed. Nine-tenths Of 1t Ia public
domain, and in anticipation Of its recla-
nation by irrigation spectators have
FASTENED to secure 1t under the home
stead law. This will not, of course, ex-
empt them from paying the cost OF irri-
CATION, about $40 an acre, in ten annual
payments, but 1t will enable them to
hold the property and dispose of it at
round profit, thanks to the govern
ment's improvement.
Mr.. Newell sees no way at present to
prevent this exploitation of a national
improvement for private gain, but
hopes that the clause permitting the
| secretary Of the interior to fix the size
of homesteads in the reclaimed district
at forty, sixty, eighty or 100 acres may
compel these spectators to d,sgorge
much Of their holdings acquired under
the 160 acre homestead allotment.
While the government will not lose
anything by this food of spectators,
the benefcent purpose Of the law is
likely to be seriously interfered with.
Many prospective settlers will be I'M
able to secure the benefits without sub
hitting to the squeezing process at the
hands Of the spectators. The matter
is one to which the coming congress
should give early attention.

MARCHIONESS OF LONDONDERRY.
each year among a large and loyal ten
antry, and for three years, 1856 to 1889,
Lord Londonderry was lord lieutenant
of Ireland.
Lady Londonderry has always loved
her Irish home and the Irish people.
She has done much to popularize their

has in all her work come to know Ire

able to write truthfully and with n

II is stated that the increase in wages
granted by the Grand Trunk to the Ell
gineers aud firemen as the result of the
negotiations that have been in progress
in Montreal for the last two months,
will amount To an average of II per
cent. These men, under the present
arrangement, earn from 500 to SIPS a
month, besides the extras that come 10
them for overtime. The men demanded
a general advance equivalent to 20 per
cent, and have been contented with
slightly over half that.
