Committee on Public Comfort

The report made by Chairman NJ l. Wei
Ter. from the committee on public comfort,
was particularly encouraging. He was
very confident the number of visitors would
exceed that of any similar gathering in
Washington. In his opinion. it would re-
Qure every home in the city which could
accommodate transient boarders at that
time to provide sleeping room for the visit
ors To this end he proposed a house to-
house canvass to discover what houses
might entertain visitors and had not yet
been entered on his books. For the en-
tire week, he said. the population OF Wash
ington would be doubled.

BIG CROWD EXPECTED
G. A. R. ENCAMPMENT TO BEAT
ALL RECORDS.

The third session of the citizens execu-
tive committee, held last night at the
Riggs. was devoted exclusively to receiv-
ing and considering reports from the chair
men of subcommittee. No allotment of
funds was made. The tenor of all the re-
meeting closed with every one confident
that the encampment would not only be a
pronounced success as a reunion of veter-
ans, but would draw to Washington the
largest crowd in years.
s. E. Faunce, chairman of the committee
on campfires, spoke first. His associates
had voted, he said, not to arrange a pro-
gram of campfires until an allowance was
made to cover the expenses. Convention
Hall, the Capitol grounds Glen Echo. the
base ball park and other similar places had
been suggested appropriate for camp
fires. Chairman Warner urged on Mr.
Faunce the desirability of using the tents
which are to be erected in the White Lot
a suggestion which met with the latter's
hearty approval. Many prominent public
men, said Mr.. Faunce in conclusion had
been already engaged to address the camp-
fires.
Cuno III. Rudolph and Arthur Hendricks
chalrmen of the commit tees on decoration
and transportation to battlefields, respec-
lively, followed Mr.. Faunce with exnla
nations to the effect that their work could
not be done until short time before the
encampment.

Clements Labor Record.

Clement spends his time bowling
about license but is very careful not
osay anything of the interests of the
working man. In this be is consist
ent for his record in that line will not
bear investigation.
When he was at the head of the
Ogdensburg Transit Company there
was a strike of the longshoremen at
Ogdensburg. They were working
nights and days, as that line of work
calls for, about one third of the time
and had no work other times. Their
pay averaged only a dollar per day
and they asked for a slight raise.
Clement refused and the men struck.
Clement Immediately hired lot OF
freshly imported Italians to do the
work and refused to even meet com
mittee OF the strikers to talk the
matter over and the men were out
for good.
The workingmen, who know how
hard it is to live on wages consider
ably better than these poor long
shoremen we're getting, can see for
themselves just what kind of task
master this multi-milionaire is whom
they are asked to help along in his
ambitions, Bloomington Reformer.

port of his party.
If sufficient Republicans vote for
Mr.. Clement to elect him, what do
they gain? Nothing, absolutely
nothing, while they are doing an in
jury to the Republican party by i'm
pairing its strength and usefulness,
and the effect upon the future success
of the party as whole will be felt
more or less through the whole coun-
try. The Republican majority in this
state will be greatly reduced or wiped
out, which will be sincerely regretted
by all true Republicans throughout
the entire nation. Now, all these
damaging results to our party will
be hailed with delight by our great
adversary, the Democratic party.
AS Republicans, we should be true
to our party and its principles, and
never be drawn away by local issues
or petty differences, Let us vote for
the entire state and county tickets
and win for the grand old party the
usual signal victory.

The Burlington Daily News makes a
strong appeal in its issue of Monday
forthe support ofthe Republican State
Ticket. 1t believes in high license
but favors a referendum, and as that
is what the Republican party is
pledged for, sees no good in support
ing Clement 1t says among other
things
Now as to boiling and its morals.
The News has said on so many occa-
sions that it believes in boiling when
occasion arises that we hardly need
to repeat it now. No citizen can be
good citizen who makes fetch OF
his party. He must hold himself
ready for the time when he may have
to save his state or his county by
boiling. The conscience Of every
man must be his own guide as to
time and occasion. But in general
it is not useful or necessary to rush
into bolt on trivial occasions when
there is nothing special to be gained.
The News fails to sHe what is to be
gained by Mr. Clements bolt. In
the first place to our mind-freely ex-
pressed to Mr.. Clement in advance
there was not sufficient cause for his
bolt. Mr.. Clement participated in
the Republican Convention without
advance protest, and certainly would
have accepted the nomination if he
had got it. Another man got it and
Mr.. Clement repudiates that nomi-
nation, with no more facts to Justify
reputation, than he had before he
participated in the Convention.
This kind of a bolt is different from
the ordinary voters bolt, and differ
emit from what it would have been
before participation in the Conven-
ton. In the present bolt there is a
question of morals, or at least a
question of honor, at stake. If Mr..
Clement had been nominated he GER
tainly would have considered it a
very mean and dishonorable trick if
one of the other candidates had got
ten together the Washington County
afidavits and bolted his nominatior.
That feeling must prevail quite gen.
orally among men who believe in
party honor.

The st. Adams Messenger of Tues
day published the following despatch
from Brattleboro =
Bratteboro, Aug 26 The unusual specta-
Gle of a stupi6ed staggering man attempting
to deliver political speech to Brattleboro
audience was witnessed in the auditorium
last night when the Rev. Sam Small, of Georg-
ia, who is stumping the State in the interest
of Percival W. Clement, arose to address the
largest audience assembled in the town since
the beginning of the campaign.
Charles A. Miles of Brattleboro. at the close
of his remarks, introduced the southern evan
geist. Small staggered to the front of the
stage and after a silly, sickly grin began
something like this: Fourteen years ago
was through here talking prohibition. | am
talking prohibition now" Keeling to a small
table he took up book of the Vermont
statutes and said This is the book that pro-
hibits" The book fell from his grasp to the
floor. Then he continued There were $50
saloon keepers to one voter fourteen years
ago when | was here" dozen times more
or less he repeated the words, " Fourteen
years ago" The audience thought at first
he was trying to act burlesque, but by this
time they had taken in the situation and
boys in the gallery began hoOting and yell
ing. Men on the platform left in disgust and
the audience began to leave the hall. Col.
Miles attempted to stop Small but he would
not stop until Col. Miles took him by the
hand and lead him of the stage. Two work
men employed by the Mildred Holland troupe
offered to assist Col Miles. A moment later
a member of the band rushed out to Police
man Thayer and said Small had drawn a
jackknite on the theatrical men. They will
say nothing about this incident.
Small was taken to Brooks house and a
physician summoned The physician said
there was no positive evidence that Small had
been drinking. but this morning he said that
SmalPs condition apparently was caused by
whiskey. An attemdt was made to get the
impression abroad that Small was overcome
by drug taken to brace his nerves, but in
an interview this morning Small said he did
not pant such an impression to go out. He
said he was drunk and that the truth was
bad enough The theatrical men detected
Small's condition and reported to Policeman
Thayer before the speaking began, thatSmall
was drunk and there would be fun later.
The Clement forces in Brattleboro are
thoroughly downcast as a result of the affair
Small spoke in the afternoon at Putney
The audience noticed that he was not in a
condition to speak.
Sam Small spoke at Barre last
night and apologiz9d for his condi-
ton saying it was the last chance
thew will have to make that reference
to Sam Small.

Sam Small is to make speech or
two in Lamoille County. He will be
given good audiences, because the
people are always anxious to see and
hear men of noted repute. Mr..
Small, or as he is better known, Sam,
is a good talker, has been rank
Prohibitionist and has denounced
the saloon in unscathing terms. He
is now talking in the interest of
Percival w. Clement and of course
advocates high license or local
option We are of the opinion that
he will not make many converts to
his way of thinking in Lamoille
County, as the people here have a
habit Of doing considerable thinking
of their own. They know the good
as well as the evil in prohibition, and
it is a wasteful expenditure of large
sum of money on the part of Mr.
Clement to send this man Small here
to tell the sturdy people of Lamoille
what they already know.

No Republican should get the idea
that this is an "off year" and that
he is on that account excused from
the performance of even the smallest
duty to his party organization, or
that state politics have no bearing
this year upon national affairs. All
ewes, as usual, are turned towards
Vermont. The canvass is of national
consequence from the fact that the
entire House of Representatives is to
be elected, and Legislatures are to be
chosen which willname United States
Senators. 1t is of state Importance
from the fact that this State Legisla-
ture will decide whether William p.
Dillingham; will succeed himself or
another shall take his place. This
election, midway between the Presi-
Dental campaigns, is Of the highest
importance and no Republican should
neglect to cast his ballot for the
straight party nominees. Remember
these facts and vote right next Tues
day.
