VIENNA, March 1S.-Cheers for the Ho-

started the APPLAUSE after violent speech

and would oppose every government fail

Then Herr Schoenerer called for three

"
dered at, therefore, that when the new
president began a new regime the i'm
preston created on the proprietors of
the railroads was as if there had been
a sudden invasion Of vested rights.
1t was a surprise and jar. 1t came I'M
heralded. There were not even intimations
in the press that the president was about
to do things which were calculated to
stir the railroad and financial world
deeply.
No Warning Is Given.
Even if statement had been heralded
abroad, it is doubtful if it would have
had any effect more than to send a Tot
OF politicians and financiers to the White
mousse on missions of protest and dissua-
s1on But as it was, the influential
men OF the party" and the powers in
the street were equally taken unaware
Ihelr first intimations of the orders issued
oy tne president were in the consequences
of those orders
If the president had asked the advice
OF the powerful men in his party-men
ike Hanna, Elkins, Aldrich, PIatt. of
connecticut; Hale and Fairbanks, there
is no doubt that he would have been
counseled against the course he has
taken. Perhaps that is why he did not
ask. They would have told him that
such course would be a menace to the
- prosperity Or the country.
They would have told him, without
doubt, that the railroads would look upon
1t as an attack upon vested interests.
They would have argued that the step
was along the line of dangerous radical
ism, and not in harmony with the wise
conservatism Of William Mckinley.
They would have warned him that
there was nothing to gain; that it was
impossible to achieve the results he
aimed at in such manner, and that the
reward for his pains would be the antag-
onism Of the railroads and the trusts and
their opposition to him in his effort to
secure second term. They would have
told him that the people were not COM
planning now, and that they would not
appreciate his efforts-his misguided eff
forts-in their behalf. That is what
they would have told him, for that is the
way they feel about it.
Roosevelt's move has made him pow
erful enemies. The enmity has not yet
borne fruit; but it is an easy guess that
it will.
The case is hard one. The party
leaders naturally hesitate to take issue
openly with the president, so they hest
tate to indorse him in move which is
most distasteful to the chief contributors
to the campaign funds.

Campaign Is in Secret.

What 1T will probably come to will be
a secret campaign to prevent Roosevelts
denomination. Once nominated he is
pretty apt to have things his own way.
AS the opponent of trusts he would draw
largely for support from the Democratic
party. But the trusts and railroads will
be willing to spend a pretty penny to
this effort they will be ably seconded
by Senators Hanna, Fairbanks and
others who have aspirations of their own.
Hanna, as the friend of the laboring
man, and the natural successor to Nc
Kinleys administration will have to be
taken into the reckoning.
There has been no open break between
the Ohio Senator and President Roose-
welt, as yet, but the office of political
manager, which Hanna filled for McKin-
ley, has been filled by Roosevelt by the
appointment of Henry c. Payne. Of Wis
consin. Payne is to have charge of
ROosevelt's political fortunes; and the
postoftice department will be administer
ed by some man selected by him as first
assistant! From this time on it will
pay to watch Senator Hanna. Senator
Fairbanks has aspirations, and is really
more bitter against Roosevelt than is
Hanna; but his boom is not vigorous. He
is not looked on as strong man, and
his boom is on the wane.
AS a foundation for the ante-conven-
ton campaign against Roosevelt it is the
plan of the opposition to discredit the
president in all possible ways. Propa-
ganda will be put out to the effect that
Roosevelts judgment is lacking.
Roosevelt is an avowed candidate for
the nomination in 1904. He makes no
bones of that. He is getting busy; and
so is the opposition. From this on there
should be interesting developments.

rier was flush and he offered to
give Rouillard the benefit of a part
of his wealth.
Together with two other fellows,
they repaired to a resort on Pearl
street where the quartette had all the
beer they wanted and a little more
than was good for them. In fact, Car.
rier says he fell asleep, and he dec,
lares that when he awoke, his friends
had disappeared and with them a roll
of about 500, which he had in hi:
pocket.
The police were not notified of the
affair until late Friday night, so they
were greatly handicapped. They are
now following a clew which they be
lieve will result in the capture Of
Rouillard.

vate car Ellsmere, belonging to DR.. w.

grants and much silverware from the

$50, 600 PUBLIC LIBRARY.

East Montpelier may possibly get a
$50, 600 public library through a be-
quest in the will of the late Mrs.
Charles y. Hayden of Peabody, Mass.
Mrs. Hayden has left $50, 600 for the
establishment of a home for aged men
of Peabody, to be known as the
willCharles ONE. TheB. Hayed I'm
provides that in the event of refusal to
accept the bequest, the money shall be
given to the town of East Montpelier,
for the purpose of providing a free
public library.
As to the probability of Pea
body's acceptance of the bequest
Sometime ago the town accepted a
similar bequest for a home for aged
women, which it has not been able to
support. So it is thought the chances
are that the town will not accept this
bequest for a home for aged men.
Mrs. Hayden died on Tuesday of
last week. She was a sister of Mrs.
Caroline M. Bennett of this city, and
Charles M. Bennett, son of the latter,
is of the executors of the will.
