A Disinterested Tribute.

1t Is quite generally known that United
States Senator William p. Dillingham; was
practically tho only member of the Senate
committee on immigration who opposed
the rigid Chinese exclusion bill first pro-
posed. and that the majority of the strong
men of the SeLate endorsed his views and
went to the support of the substitute bill
which he suggested. 1t will also be recalled
that there was no difference among re-
publican leaders as to the policy of ex-
Guiding the cheap labor of China, the long
and able discussion In the Senate turning
on the degree of stringency in safeguards
to be adopted; the exclusion of classes
other than laborers now exempted and the
reconcilement OF the provisions Of the act
with our treaty obligations
Senator Dillingham's position, in brief
was that the original bill was not only
impolitic from a commercial standpoint,
but was not creditable to us as a great
nation in that it updid, either directly or
indirectly solemn treaty obligations. a pol
icy the American people could not afford
to adopt.
In speaking of the discussion of this sub.
ject in the United States Senate. Editor
Charles Emory Smith OF the Philadelphia
Press former postmaster general, pays
the following deserved as we'll as
disinterested tribute to Senator Dillingham;
in the course of an article in the satur-
day Evening Post:
Burlington weekly free press. [volume] (Burlington, Vt.) 1866-1928, 1902-05-08

forward quite prominently MIR. Dillingham;
the new senator from Vermont He was
the one figure of the discussion. His recoS-
milton came not so much from his speech,
though that was clear, direct and effective
as from the evidence of his careful and
minute study OF the subject which was
demonstrated in his searching and COM
prchensve amendments to the bill Mr..
Dillingham; is headed and clean cut
Yankee. with the hard sense of the Green
Mountains and the Puritan conviction of
right. He will be useful legislator. 1t Is
an interesting fact that his immediate pre-
decessor, Senator Ross, who was only an
ad interim appointee, made the first
complete exposition of the plenary power
of Congress over the new acquisitions Of
territory. He came into the Senate fresh
from the bench and with his judicial
learning he massed the presidents and the
decisions in a complete and mastcrly
argument that served as the arsenal from
which subsequent expounders largely
drew their weapons.
The friends of both Senator Dillingha m
and Judge Ross will appreciate these
words of appreciation from Pennsyl-
vania's leading editor.

JUST WHAT THE CHILDREN LIKE.
Blood Wine Being Peasant to the Taste
Is An Easily Administered Medicine.

All mothers have difficulty in persuadinG
children to take medicine AS a result,
the little ones often get improper treat
mont, and troubles, which should only la
temporary, develope into serious disease.
one OF the most common complaints
with young children is indigestion, due
either to carelessness upon the part of the
parents, who pay insufficient care to the
kind of food consumed or because the
child porsistently overeats.
In cases of this kind nothing could lie
better for children than Blood Wine. which
acts directly upon the stomach and
bowels. aiding digestion and at the same
time building up the system. AS a laxa-
tive it has no equal. for though not
strong clthartic, it regulates the bowels
perfectly.
Best of all, mothers will find no Difficult
ty in persuading children to take blood
Wine. 1t is pleasant to the taste, and al
children like it.
As a tonic for children between the ages
of T. and IL, it is highly recommended. It's
effects are immediate and permanent.
The following letters speak for them
selNes;-
writes:-
81 am pleased to say have used several
bottles of Blood Vine in my family with
best results. Especially in he case
with my children. who, when they ale
pale, weak and run down were not abb, 10

dered them 20 do so. Blood Wine is D
pleasant 10 take they do not mind it IN
the least"

says

VERM0NT'S TRADE SITUATION.

Weather conditions are the unfavorable
feature in the business situation in Yer
mont which otherwise as whole Is salts
factory the cold rainy weather has pre-
vented good retail trade and as the sea-
son is advancing it will be difficult to re-
gain the lost trade. More or less labor
agitation has developed within few
weeks, the most serious being the strike
In the marble mills near Rutland, which
has been adjusted. A small strike was re-
ported in one quarry near Barre, hut was
only of local interest and did not affect
the general quarry business. The carpen-
tiers have organized n union Mt Burlington
and have demanded Of their employers
nine hours work per day in place of ten
hours with minimum wages Of 81 Tho
contractors have thus far refused to grant
this demand and there is a prospect of a
strike involving some 100 workmen. Man

prospects for the season are favorable.

scarcity of female help for factory opera

An Incentive for q Fuil Vote.

The voters in the different towns are
urged over and over again each year TO at
tend the polls on election day, but in spite
of the fact that we have this duty to at
tend to but once in two years, a host Of
people neglect this privilege Various rea-
sons arc urged upon voters as an incen-
tive to the casting Of full vote. but these
are never so fully appreciated as when
people see the results Of their failure to
vote.
The official call for the Chittenden county
republican convention appears in another
column, and 1t will be noted that the total
number Of delegates entitled to seats IN
that gathering will be only 200 as compared
with "a in 1895 for example, a loss Of four
teen. Burlington loses one delegate, Col
chester six, Hinesburgh two, Huntington
one, Richmond three, Westford one, and
Williston two, while Charlotte gains one
and Essex one.
The representation in the county conven-
ton, as In the State and district conven-
lions, is based upon tho total republican
vote cast for governor in the precedln g
election, and those towns which have lost
one or more delegates have only them
selves to blame. while those who have
gained a delegate have their own voters to
thank.
We direct attention to this matter at this
time in order that when voters in the diff
ferent towns are urged during the few
days preceding the coming State election to
vote not only because it Is a duty but in
order that their towns may not lose rep
resentation in the different republican con-
ventions. they will fully appreciate the sig
nificance of their failure to respond to the
call of duty

How the ex.Governors Stand.


In response to request as to how the
ex-governors of our State stand upon the
pending governor question We reply that
most OF them do not appear to be taking
any very active part in the canvass. Their
preferences as publicly announced by some
OF them as declared by others in conversa-
ton, ana in regard to others as reported
by their neighbors and friends, are as fol-
lows:
For Mccullough.
Ex-Govevnor Holbrook.
Ex-Governor Hendee.
Ex-Governor Stewart.
Ex-Governor Farnham.
Ex-Governor BarStow.
Ex-Governor Pingree.
Ex-Governor Ormsbee.
Ex-Governor Page.
To which may be added Governor Stick
ney.
For Proctor:
Ex-Governor Woodbury..
Ex-Governor Grout.
Ex-Governor Smith.
The two ex-governors, who are In the
United States Senate are omitted from
these lists. as being absent from the State
in discharge Of their duties at the nation
lively little attention to State politics.
Our governors are prominent citizens,
and representative men AS a rule they
we'll represent their constituents, in intell-
gcnce. personal character. acquaintance
with the needs and the wishes of the people
and care for the best interests Of the State.
We have no doubt that in their preferences
on the governor question at this time, the
ma jority Of them represent the preferences
OF the majority Of the republican voters.
These may not as yet be for Mccullough,
quite in the proportion Of three to one; but
there are other indications in abundance
that General Mccullough Is heavily in the
lead Of the other candidates throughout
the State. And republicans who are In
doubt as to their duty, can see that they
will be in excellent company and will make
no mistake If they conclude to support the
candidate who is favored by such men as
those in the Mccullough column above.
