has reissued his famous order to his
soldiers to shoot to kill. He had this
to say in reference to his order:
Fire discipline is requisite in a
very high degree in troops engaged
in riot service, as absolute accuracy
of fire on the part of their leaders is
essential.
Troops should be trained to pay
no attention to the firing by sharp
shooters. and to fire only when and in
such manner as directly ordered, and
to cease firing Immediately when
ordered
The f1anks of a column of troops
passing through turbulent portions of
a city should be protected by flank
ers selected, if possible, for their SKILL
as markSmen."

A Queer Ration for Calves.

No less a paper than the New Zeal
and Dairyman is advocating the use
of cod liver oil in the raising of
calves. 1t claims to have discovered
its efficacy as a partial iation. This
oil is fed with separate skim milk,
and is supposed to take the place of
the cream that has been removed from
the milk in separating. The amount
to be fed each day is two liquid
sunces. The oil costs about $1.25 per
gallon, which means that the cost per
calf is about 2 cents per day. This is
not an excessive cost If it does the
work proposed. In the United States
we have many cheaper things. such
as fax seed. In this country to put
calves on a partial ration of cod liver
oil would be to call into alliance the
corner drug store We will wait to
see how the New Zealanders succeed
before we take up with the novelty.
Possibly in a year the method Will
have dropped out of sight

From the Farmers Review: Do any
of the readers of the Farmers Re
view keep pigeons? If so, what do
they find to be the best varieties to
keep? What are the profits? Does it
pay to raise them for squads to be
used on the farmers table? Does
it pay to raise the squads for sale?
If so, where are the squads sold2 Is
it much trouble to keep pigeons? How
are they taken care of in winter and
how often do they have to be fed in
winter2 Anyone that can give me an
answer to these questions will great
ly oblige reader of the Farmers

AT no time in his career has he
been assertive Or obtrusive and at no
time have the people been made to
feel by him that there was such a
thing as too much Proctor in the
state. Instead of being 'too much
Proctor in Vermont there has not
been enough. Had the state more
men of the Proctor stamp, physically
and intellectually, her progress would
have been much more marked in the
past and much more might be hoped
for her in the future.-Fdir HdUen Era.

The Mccullough literary bureau

from Bennington four page circular

John G. McCullough's Residence"

bona fide Vermonter.
Just think this over a moment.
Think of a man running for the gov
ernorship of state and the people of
that state so uncertain of his identity
that they must all be carefully
educated by means of campaign liter a.
ture to know just who he is and where
he lives. Can any one ask for a more
frank admission that the character of
General McCullough's citizenship is
in doubt? If he was Vermonter and
of sufficient Importance as a Yer
monter to be seriously regarded as a
candidate for governor, would not
his fellow Vermonters know it by this
time? Did anybody ever suggest the
publication of pamphlets to prove
that Governor Stickney was YER
monter, or that any of his predeces-
sors we're Vermonters?

LETTER FROM DR.. WEBB.

DIR. w. S. Webb has given out the
following state ment for publication:
To the Republicans of Vermont:
On my return alter six weeks alb
sence, nd my action in withdraw
ing my name as candidate for gov
ernor has been maliciously and falsely
misrepresented, and the reasons and
motives that prompted my course
misconstrued.
wish to state most emphatically
that 1 alone am responsible for my
withdrawal.
withdrew because I became con-
WINGED there were many people of
the state who believed (most unjustly,
it seemed to me) that my citizenship
was open to question and felt there
was no better evidence I could give
these and all others of their error than
to show by my course that 1 was too
good a Vermonter to force myself
upon them against this manifest sem
timent.
also wish to say that all the stories
that have been spread broadcast over
the state by the organs of General
Mccullough as to any meetings OF
my friends to in any way infringe
upon the rights of the people are
absolutely false; also that L or any
one for me has directly or Indirectly
entered into any trade or agreement
whatsoever respecting my present or
future political action is false and
without foundation, and has been
conceived and promulgated, in my
opinion, for the sole purpose of in
Turing my name and the good stand
ing of my friends and associates.
1 believe the people of the state
will treat the stories with the con-
tempt they deserve.
take this opportunity to thank
my friends who stood by me faith :
fully and Loyalty IN my canvass, and
to say appreciate their kindness
more deeply than I can express in
words. I propose to continue to
demonstrate that am Vermonter,
and in so doing shall add, so far as
my abilities will permit, to the pros
perity and welfare of the state.

Think This Over.

During the past week many ex-
pressions were dropped by the clergy
men in attendance upon the Vermont
Methodist Conference here to the
effect that, while Methodist ministers,
as such, are not expected to take any
prominent part in party politics, new
ertheless it was very apparent that
the general sentiment of the mem
bers of the conference favored the
candidacy of Proctor. One of the
most powerful agencies in promoting
this sentiment was the general i'm
preston that the Mccullough cam
paign tactics are to great extent on
commercial basis.
The Rev. DR.. Charles Parkhurst,
editor of the Non's Herald, in his ad-
dress before the conference last
Thursday, made pertinent allusion
to the pending political campaign in
Vermont, saying he hoped that the
people would arise and rebuke for all
time to come the tendencies now
making themselves apparent. This
was interpreted to mean a decided
Proctor sentiment, especially as the
doctor said he hoped that Vermonters
would not stake a summer boarde1
and make him governor of the Green
Mountain State.''- st. Adams Mes
seeger.

veto. This makes the motive the
more apparent.
Geh. Mccullough is said to be not
in sympathy with the prohibitory law.
We do not know how far he goes in
this direction, but it is stated that
the ''New York idea" has made some
impression on him. Fletcher D.
Proctor's record in the legislature
shows that he has voted for prohibi-
ton, and he is known as consistent
temperance man.-Randolph Herald

CLEMENT A CANDIDATE.

So Mr.. Clement is to be candidate
for governor after all. His pro-
nouncement appears elsewhere. His
platform is high license local-option,
and if nominated he will seek the
overthrow of the present prohibitory
law.
Mr.. Clement has long been the lead
ing opponent of prohibition in Yer
mont. Like all the other candidates,
past and present, he is a man of abil-
ity and wealth. He is also we'll known
for energy and earnestness, and now
that he has taken off his coat he will
leave no stone unturned to win.
But he cannot win. He enters the
field too late, and his motives are
bound to be questioned. There was
the same reason for his becoming a
candidate before Fletcher D. Proctor
went in as there is now, yet he did not
enter, and unquestionably would not,
had not his friend, Webb, gone out
and his enemy, Proctor, gone in. He
cannot hope to succeed; he will be
satisfied if he is the means of beating
Proctor. He hopes, by taking advan-
tage of the license sentiment in Rut-
land county, to divide it's vote, and to
secure strength enough from other To-
calities that would naturally be for
Proctor to accomplish his defeat.
Mr.. Clements candidacy will add
interest to a canvass already very
spirited. Whether it will achieve it's
object remains for the Republican
voters to say. We do not believe it
will. We believe that the desire of
the people is so pronounced for a
good, clean, able and upright man
like Fletcher D. Proctor-withal a
real Vermonter-and it's detestation
of such tricks as this is SO strong that
the scheme will not carry. Many who
are now inclined to favor Mccullough
will not care to be parties to Mr..
Clements plot, and will rebuke him
by coming forward with Proctor votes
in their hands. If it is a part of the
Bennington candidates. plans to gel
Clement into the contest, hoping to
land the office himself, the hope will
fall short of realization. Such trick
will not work.
Mr.. Clements paper, the RUTLAND
Herald, has been paving the way TO-
this move by series of uncalledf TO-
digs at Proctor. 1t has said nothin,
about Mccullough. The purpose il
clear. Clement is willing to sacrifice
himself if he can only prevent Procto
from winning. Are republican voter
going to crafty Clements persona
spite? We think not.
Mr.. Clement might get respect
able vote as high license candidat
under other circumstances. He wi

whole long future by this move. ri
will not begin to poll the licens
strength in his party, and the exhibi

WHY MCCULLOUGH SHOULD BE
DEFEATED.

There are two reasons why McCul-
Tough should be defeated as candidate
for governor of Vermont. The first
is, that his business, which is very
extensive, is not in Vermont but in
New York. He cannot have an eye
single to the prosperity of state out
side of which his business interests
and his individual prosperity depend.
This condition is proof positive that
he cannot desire the position so much
for the good of Vermont as for his
own honor.
The second reason is even more CO.
gent. He is candidate, not by call
from the people, but 10y a trade among
politicians. He was candidate four
years ago, but was persuaded to stand
aside for Smith, with the understand
ing his turn should come in four years.
This has been charged against him
and not denied This condition of
affairs makes machine of the people,
and should make them blush. The
inference is that they are unable to
look after their own affairs and are
under guardianship of few poll
ticians, who select candidates for
public Office by trades and by turns,
and when selected ask the people to
come up to the polls in September
and affix the big seal. The people
owe it to their own intelligence and
dignity to stamp out this custom by
defeating any man who has secured a
nomination by trade with few pre-
tended owners of the state, or on the
principle of "my turn" By falling
into line with the plans and directions
of these politicians, sometimes called
"the ring, "the people stultify them
selves, and admit that they are only
machines in the management of their
own affairs.-Lyndon Union.

Manufacturing Plant at Burlington.
The plans for the 100000 manufac-
turing plant to be built at Howard
Park, Burlington this summer by the
Lumiere North American company
are completed and have been exam
ired by those desiring to bid for the
contract. The plans call for the
erection of three buildings, the main
manufacturing plant, structure 200
feet square, an Office building and a
power house.
Geo. M. Powers.
All the Supreme judges were in con-
ference at the Pavilion Monday even
ing for the purpose of electing a re-
porter of Supreme court decisions to
fill the vacancy caused by the elev "a
ton of Seneca Haselton to the bench.
1t was given out this morning that
Geo. M. Powers of Morrisville had
been chosen for that position. Mr..
Powers was born in Hyde Park in 1861
He was assistant clerk of the house of
representatives in 1884, 1896 and 1888,
clerk of the senate in 1890, 1892 and
1894 and representative from Morris
town in the legislature of 1896.
The Barnet Wagon Company.
The writer visited the shops of the
Barnet Wagon Company recently
and was surprised at the work bein e
done there. Mr.. O. E. CLARK, the
present proprietor, succeeded Mr..
Scott M. Farnum & Wife and during
the time he has been in charge has
added new machinery and greatly in
creased the output of the shops. The
main building is 30x6O feet, and there
is a storehouse in addition to this.
The wood is taken in the log and
worked up until it is finally found in
handsome carriage. Lumber wag-
ons, carriages, sleighs and sleds are
manufactured, also the genuine Con-
cord buggy, the "Rattler." In the
past the company bias purchased the
tops for their carriages but they will
now make them. A new spoke lathe
has recently been added which will
help to reduce the cost OF a wagon.
The business is increasing from year
to year and Mr.. Clark expects to put
out ten thousand dollars, worth of
new work during the present year.
Fifteen men are employed and as
there are three houses in connection
with the plant the place has the ap-
pearance of a little village. Mr..
Clark is very pleasant gentleman to
meet. He is man of undoubted in
tegrity and under his management
the business is sure to flourish.
