c. r. SMITH GONE WRONG.
Report that Prominent Orange Coun-
ty Man Has Eloped.

Bradford has a sensation which i
spreading throughout Orange county. II
Is believed that ex-senator Charles +,
smith. one of the best-known politicians
IN eastern Vermont, has left the state In
company with a woman Of that vicinity
with whom rumor has frequently con-
nected his name in the past. Mr.. Smith
has been absent from town about four
weeks, but this occasioned no comment
for some time because his business, that
OF an insurance agent, has frequently
called him from town for weeks at time.
II has leaked out that before Mr.. Smith
left the last time he took his wife TO the
home Of his brother, A. T. Smith, in Tops
ham, and afterward wrote her a letter
from Bradford stating in substance that he
was crazy and was going away never to
return and that she would never see him
again. He said that he would always re-
member her kindly wherever he went.
Mr.. and Mrs. Smith boarded at Hotel
Low.
The woman in the case left the state
about the same time, and although It is
not known to be true, the general belief is
that they are together somewhere. Moth
ing has been heard from Smith, but II is
known that the woman is, or was, in Iowa
and presumably he is with her. Mr..
Smith moved to Bradford from West
Topsham more than a year ago to continue
ms business as an auctlOneer and insur-
ance agent. For many years he has been
power in politics in the county. He
represented Topsham in the legislature Of
1880, was a deputy sheriff from 1885 to 1872,
sheriff Of Orange county from 1892 TO 1873,
and IN 1900 was elected to the state senate.
He was long regarded as an astute political
leader but during the last few years sus-
picions of trickery have come to the sur
face. Mrs. Smith has returned to Brad
ford and the sympathy OF the community
rs entirely with her. She is a thoroughly
respected woman.
il is now believed that the relations be-
tween Smith and the woman in question
have continued for some time. IL Is
known that she was at Montpelier while
he Was member OF the senate and there
Was considerable talk concerning them at
that time. Humorous reference was made
10 this matter at the time by means of
printed cards, some Of which found their
way to other towns.

Congress Aner the Trusts.

Interest in Congress centers in trust
legislation. The Senate has passed the
Elkins bill prohibiting the giving OF
railway rebates or concessions, which Is
expected to give small concerns a fair
chance to compete with big combin-
ations. The House passed by a unani-
nous vote the Littlefield bill which goes
TO the full limit of the federal govern
ments powers in curbing the trusts. A
sensation was caused by the reported
receipt by several senators of kilograms
direct from John ID. Rockefeller OF the
Standard Oil Co. asking them not to vote
for certain antitrust measures. The
administration is taking an active part in
securing the passage OF repressive meas
ures. There Is prospect Of COM
promise on the statehood bill whereby
New Mexico and Arizona will be ad-
mitted as one state and Oklahoma and
Indian Territory as another. The Cuban
reciprocity and Panama canal treaties
are yet to be acted on by the Senate.
The bill creating the new department Of
