The first effect of Senator Lodges
speech in advocacy of the bill for the
civil government of the Philippines
is to cause renewed confidence on the
Republican side of the chamber that
the plans of the majority party will
be carried out before Congress adj
journs. This confidence is felt not
only as to thePhilippines, but also as
to the Cuban reciprocity and the
isthmian canal. The President and
Republican leaders in Congress are
in accord in the determination that
all three of these great measures
must be passed before adjournment,
no matter how late the Democrats
may prolong the session by dilatory

The destruction OF the town of st.
Pierre on the island OF Martinique
and the loss of 10000 lives by vol
canic eruption is one of the greatest
disasters iD the history of the world.
Mt. Pelee, a volcanic mountain some
ten miles north of St. Pierre began to
throw out dense clouds ofsmoke Nay
Sd. At midnight the same day
flames, accompanied with umbling
noises, lighted the sky over an i'm
menss area. causing widespread ter
ror. May 4 hot ashes covered the
whole city qnarUer of st. Pierre and
completely destroyed everything, TO-
gether with all the inhabitants. The
disaster is fearful and the results are
not yet fully ascertained but enough
has been learned to make it one OF
the most appalling catastrophies in
the history of the world.
The line OF islands known as the
Lesser Antilles, and also as the Wind
ward Islands, that form the eastern
boundary of tho Caribbean Sea, has
been the scene of tragedy to the
human race such as the world has
seldom before seen. The only disas-
tiers comparable with it we're the sew,
eral earthquakes and tidal waves
which have wiped out hundreds of
thousandr of lives in Japan and
China; the Sicilan earthquake of
1902, which DESTROYED fifty. four cities,
800 villages and 100000 lives; the
great Lisbon earthquake of 1855, in
which 10000 persisted, and the Kra-
katoa calamity of 1888, when 100,-
900 victine met an awful fate. The
destruction of Pompeii and Hercul.
aneum by the eruption of Vesuvius
in the year 70 is probably the most
historically famous OF all such cata-
clysms, but the loss of lite at that
time was undoubtedly considerably
less than the loss at St. Pierre.

For State Auditor.

The friends of Horace w. Bailey,
and they are very numerous in Yer
mont, will be pleased to note the cor
dial and hearty reception given to
his candidacy throughout the state.
We print herewith last weeks ed
itorial utterances of the Bristol Her
aid, the Vergennes Enterprise, the
Brattleboro Reformer, the White
River Junction Landmark and the
Bellows Falls Times. They are all
of the same tenor
Horace w. Baileyis stillin the lead
for State Auditor Judging from the
opinions expressed by the statepress,
f-Bristol Herald.
Good honest Horace w. Bailey of
Newbury is in the field for State
Auditor Mr.. Bailey is eminently
well qualified tor the position, and if
he wants it there is no earthly reason
why he should not have it. Here's
hoping that his friends will help him
to get it.-Brattleboro Reforner.
Horace w. Bailey, of Newbury,
appears to have the inside track in
theracef for Auditor. Hisno animation
takes well, and we expect, aside from
the uncertainty that attends all po-
litical moves until the votes are ac-
tually cast, that he will carry the
Republican nominating convention
by decisive majority.-Landmark.
1t gives us pleasure to endorse the
candidacy of Horace w. Bailey for
the position of State Auditor. Mr..
Bailey is a gentleman of broad and
benevolent turn of mind, gifted with
a large amount of horse sense and
well fitted to keep an eagle eye on ex-
penditures and credits. Further
more, he has made quite reputation
for himself as hustler and will I'm
doubtedly receive hearty endorse
ment about the state.-Vergennes
Enterprise. 2z
Probably the most prominent can
didate for Auditor on the Republican
ticket is Horace W. Bailey of New
bury. One of his enthusiastic friends
writes: "He will make an Auditor
who will audit. His work will be
done promptly, it will be done
honestly, it will give every man who
has just claim against the state
his money when it is due, it will give
a cent to no one who is not entitled
to it under the law. Vermont needs
Just such an Auditor. "-BeHoWs Falls

The St. Adams Messenger insults
the Republican StateCommittee when
it states that an attempt was made
by the Mccullough members of the
committee to have a "snap conven-
ton" The Messenger knows that
a majority fthecommittee are favor
able to Gen. Me- ullough's candidacy
and that had they felt so inclined
could have had the convention as
early as they liked. While it is true
that some of the members favored
an early convention a majority
favored the time fixed, and the entire
committee agreed upon the time and
all the other arrangements made.
1t is not in very good taste to make
an accusation of this kind when it is
so far, from. the truth. The State
Committee are all honorable men and
while they have their personal prefer
ences they would be untrue to the
position they hold did they not have
the best interest oftheparty in mind.

DEATH OF MRS. ANDREW ]. CAMPBELL.

DEATH OF MRS. ANDREW J. CAMPBELL.
Mrs Andrew J. Campbell died Tues
day, May 9th, at her home in Garfield,
aged 81 years. Mrs. Campbell was the
only surviving child of Charles and Mar
celia Thompson. She was born in STRAIT
ford, VT, March IS, 1865, and moved to
Hyde Park with her parents in 1876,
where she has since resided. In March,
1883, on her 18th birthday, she was
united in marriage to Andrew J. Camp
bell. No children blest their union un-
til they had been married over seven
teen years, when to their great Joy son
was born to them. But the Joy was soon
mixed with sorrow, for soon after the
birth of their child, Foster, the mothers
health began to fail and about year
ago the doctors decided she had that
dread disease, consumption. Everything
that medical skill or loving care and at
tention could do was done to arrest the
progress of the disease, and though for
short periods of time the efforts would
seem about to be rewarded it was finally
all in vain. She suffered greatly during
the last few weeks of her life, but bore
her suferings patiently and always had
a pleasant word of greeting for the
friends who called on her during her
illness. The funeral services were held
at the house Friday, May 9th, Rev. DR..
Booth officiating. The many beautiful
floral offerings testify to the high regard
in which she was held. The remains
were inferred in the cemetery at Hyde
Park Center. She leaves, besides a
husband and son, a father and mother,
a nephew, Erwin Jacobs, many distant
relatives and a host of friends to mourn
her loss. The bereaved family has the
sympathy of all in their deep affection.
Dear Stella. thou hast left us,
Thy sufferingS are DER;
But we hope one day to meet thee
On that BRIGHT celestial shore.

The United State Senate listened
last Wednesday to Senator Tillman
in one of his criticisms. He exceeded
himself as purveyor of invective and
verbal violence, and so mortified his
party associates that almost to a
man they left the Senate Chamber
and remained in the cloak-room until
the conclusion of his speech. 1t was
a rebuke seldom administered to a
Senator, but it apparently had no
effect on the South Carolina member.
1t is just such exhibitions as that
that will ultimately force Tillman's
retirement from public life. Un-
fortunately his term does not expire
until 1907.
