How He Stated 1t.

When Representative Tompkins, of
Ohio, was young lawyer in the state,
and was winning his spurs, he occa-
sionally found it profitable to accept
a case in Justices conrt in the coun-
try. He tells the following story of
the argument made by rural barris
ter before such magistrate. The
case was one in which the plaintiff
sought to recover damages from a
railroad company for the killing of a
COW. During the course of his argu-
ment the country lawyer used this
expressive sentence: eff the train
had been run as it should have been
ran, Or if the bell had been rang as it
should have been rang, or if the whis-
tie had been blown as it should have
been blew, both of which they did
neither, the cow would not have been
injured when she was killed."

demand good. The mills are busy and
other manufacturing businesses are
we'll employed. Coal dealers are ex-
pecting to get a moderate supply of
coal in the course of two weeks. Re-

lishments are busy. The creamery is
making large amount of butter and
distributes considerable money among
the farmers in this vicinity. Retail
trade satisfactory. The cannery did
but small business in corn but is now
busy canning apples. There appears
to be good prospect for the develop

ness will be established in this line
here. Morrisville reports manufac-
turing business and retail trade good
with collections fair. The paper mills
at Bellows Falls are very busy, colIec-
tions good. Rutland reports the

ployed as a rule, although the strike
against the two machine shops is still
unsettled. Retail trade fully up to
the average, collections good. The
supply of coal in this vicinity is very
limited and there is shortage of dry
wood. This city has experienced
much relief because of the coal strike
settlement. Waterbury repor s
manufacturing business very good,
retail trade as not very active, collec-
tons fair. Mercantile business is
good in Newport both in manufacture
ing and retail lines, collections good.
Fair Haven reports manufacturing
interests to be we'll employed, retail
trade and collections good. The retail
trade in st. Johnsbury is good and
collections fair. The large shops here
are very busy. No material change

somewhat more active and collections
fairly good. The Mortified granite
shops are busy and business condi
tions are unchanged. The slate quar-

Home Industries.

We rail at the trusts and monopolies
and bemoan the crowding out of small
dealers and the individual, little real
izing that unconsciously we are push
ing our local shop keepers and me-
chanics to the wall by our lack Of in
terest and patronage.
IL We live within a few miles of a
large city, each one Of US hastens
thereto for his supplies for every
need, claiming that hetter satisfac
ton is obtained where one has a
larger choice.
Should every family in village
patronize the local establishments.
the result would be surprising. With
increased trade the local merchant
would enlarge and vary his stock, study
the tastes and requirements of his
patrons, be able to sell goods on less
margin of profit. and in turn could
buy more produce of his neighbor
than before, because of his prosperity.
AS soon as increased activity in
trade developed, SO soon would the
village become more attractive in a
hundred ways. Prosperity for half
dozen local merchants is pebble
cast in the trade stream that widens
surprisingly the circle of moving cur
rents, which before lay stagnant.
Everything that tends to increase
| the prosperity Of village causes o
rise in property valuation and makes
! farm land more valuable and easier
to dispose of, if one so desire. Your
neighbours success is your own in a
! way, for no one of US stand alone.
and individual prosperity is the
leaven that may leaven the whole
| lump.

BOFR APPEAL STIRS ENGLAND
It Is Regarded As Hostile and a BIundtr
Beers Will Live 70 Regret

London, Sept. 25.-The tone and
contents of the manifesto Of the Boer
generals, which was issued in the
form of an appeal to the civilized
world for contributions to assist des-
titute Beers and help in the education
OF Boer children. excite the utmost
resentment of the whole British press,
and the document tends to ALLEVIATE the
sympathy which has hitherto been
felt for the Boer people in many quar-
ters. 1t IS regarded as a manifesto
Of ostility to Great Britain, and the
work not of Generals Botha, De Wet
and Delarey, but of DR.. Leyds, the
European representative of the Beers,
and Mr.. Reitz, former state secretary
of the Transvaal. and blunder which
the Beers will live to regret.
The statement contained In the
manifesto that 10000 houses have been
burned is declared TO be a gross ex
aggeration. and complaint is made
that the document presents the case
against Great Britain in the worst pos
sible light 1t is pointed out that even
if the Beers estimate of 10000 farms
destroyed is correct, the $15,0O0,0O
granted under the peace terms will
give each family $500. The idea that
( the appeal is likely to result in getting
anything like s150,0O0,O00 is ridiculed
