WATROUS TRAGEDY.
Railroad Man Who Had Trouble Found
On Track With Legs Crushed.

Saturday night at Watrous, Pedro
Gustamente was found lying beside
the track at Watrous, alive, but with
n leg crushed off above the knee
and the other terribly mangled. The
case was reported to Justice of the
Peace Upton, who called in DR.. Rolls
and DR.. Meade. The physicians vainly
attempted to restore the mar to con
seriousness, hoping he would rally suf-
fciently to justify an operation of am
putation, but the man sank gradually
and died at 9 o'clock Sunday morning.
Upon his head were marks which could

wheels of the train that had passed

blood led from a saloon where Gusta.

evening, to the track.
AS foul play was suspected the JUS
tice summoned a c%oroner's jury which
had not made a report in time to be
sent in this dispatch. 1t was shown al
the inquest that Gustamente had been
drinking during the evening. He had
had trouble twice and had been struck
on the head. Whether badly injured

The overworking of train crews on
railroads, with resulting loss of sleep
and vigilance, evidently does not pay.
The interstate commerce commission
has issued a bulletin on railroad acct
dents for the three months ended De-
cember 81, 1902. 1t shows that during
that period in train accidents 266 per
sons were killed and 2.788 injured. Ac'
cidents of other kinds, including those
sustained by employees while at work
and by passengers in getting on and
off cars, etc, bring the total number OF
casualties up to 93S killed and II ,S7s
injured. The damage to cars and en-
gines and road bed by these accidents
amounted to S2,462. 056.

Speaking of the adjustment OF cap
ital punishment. Did anyone Sever
hear of person who was sentenced to
life Imprisonment petitioning the leg.
islature to hang him? - Northtield
News.
Hardly. But we have heard of many
instances where the murderers con-
demned to be hanged, worked every
string to get their sentences commut-
ed to life imprisonment. Which all
proves, without much question, that
the death penalty is greater punish
ment than life Imprisonment, notwith-
standing the attempt to prove to the
contrary. Barre Times.
1t proves nothing. Do think little
before making your editorial utter
ances and do look beneath the surface
of things before you reason, or argue,
or ask questions. Of course no person
sentenced to life Imprisonment petit
tions for death because he always has
the hope of getting free. But if he
had no such hope-absolutely none
we might naturally and confidently
look for death petitions. To most hu-
man beings, death would be prefer
able to life without freedom, or hope
of freedom. But that cannot be, for
there is always hope with life. 1t is
not the life Imprisonment that crimi-
nails petition for, but the hope that
goes with it. That hope should be a
groundless one as far as justly convict
ed persons are concerned.

The st. Adams correspondent of the
Boston Herald states that "the condi-
ton which initiates the strongest
against the chances of the local OPP
ZIONIST is the wholesale opening of sa-
looms and drinking places in every city
and large town in the state since the
passage of the license law by the leg
islature." Burlington had 200 open
unlicensed saloons before the legisla-
ture enacted and every other large town
had more or less open saloons. Under
license Burlington may have IS licensed
places, and the license commissioners,
police and all good citizens are in duty
bound to prevent any other places from
selling liquor. Public sentiment will
not fail to close every unlicensed at
tempt to sell liquor in Vermont. Pub
lie sentiment will be stronger and more
effective than the desires of the states
attorneys to do work enough to secure
the approval of the salary accounts by
the judge of the county court.

VT, FRIDAY, JANUARY 8


We are glad to be able, through our
news columns this week, to present so
many inspiring and gratifying facts to
our readers. New hopes, new oppor-
tunities and fresh channels for human
development and progress are constant
ly being opened to us by the pioneer
thinkers and workers of the world. In
one week alone how many great for
ward steps have been taken, how many
generous and helpful things done! A
wireless, transcontinental service
through Canada is projected; cable
connection established between San
Francisco and Honolulu; great sur
geon has just gone home to Austria af-
ter curing many little American chill
dren who, but for his skill, would
have been crippled for life. He has
not only done this but has freely ex-
nlained and illustrated his methods to
the physicians of the large cities OF
this country, so that the benefit OF his
visit shall be endless; the great steel
trust has announced the establishment
of system whereby its employees, high
and low, may share in its profits; the
commissioner of labor says that wages
are higher than ever before in the
country's history; health and medical
students find that lemon and orange
Juice destroy typhoid germs and that
local treatment may be applied to the
heart: Hawaii is about to throw
open vast public lands to United
States settlers: French duke has Of
fered generous prizes for original works
on North American history and the
United States has more gold in Its
treasury this year than this or any
other government ever had at any time
before.
Now is not this paragraph te
quicken ambition, inspire energy anc
beget confidence? Yet these are only &
few of the great and good things thai
have been done or projected the pas,
week. Who can say that this is not
good world to live in; or that any one,
willing to do his part of the worlds
work and to carry his share of the
worlds burdens, need despair of find
ing his rightful and satisfying place
in it?
1t is now for us all to resolve to us'
these great opportunities only so as tt
uplift ourselves and others; to do moth
ing to retard this onward march o
knowledge and helpfulness, but every
thing to aid it, For opportunity ant
knowledge and encouragement to thu
world, mean a better world and hap
pier world. And happiness to the worle
is happiness to ourselves; for happi
ness, like courses and chickens, come
home to roost."

In commenting upon a recent para
graph in the Reformer, which advised
people to be honest with themselves
and their neigbbors, and to vote as
they drink, the editor of the Randolph
Herald says:
at might be more honest for man
not to vote as he drinks, counting as
honesty the desire to protect ones self,
one's family and ones state 1t does
not necessarily follow that a person
who drinks occasionally, or even to ex-
cess, should, by his vote, invite the

Mr.. Clement gets at the figures in
about this way: The $4,000 votes cast
for Clement, the 1000 Democratic
votes and one-third of the 10000 who
voted for Mccullough will vote yes
on the Sd of February. He also seems
to think that 20, 900 will cover the mo"
vote. Mr.. Clements estimate may be
high for the Eyes, vote and low for
the "no'' vote-but we are willing to
wager big red apple-the one the
Phoenix used to own-that the net re-
suit will be as predicted by Mr.. Glenn

Death of Prof. Edward Conant.

Prof. Edward Conant, the best
known educator of Vermont and prin-
cipal of the Randolph normal school,
was found dead in bed at his home in
Randolph Monday. His death was due
to apoplexy. Prof. Conant was 70 years
old and leaves a wife, two sons and
two daughters. Mr.. Conant was born
in Pomfret and educated in South
Woodstock and Thetford seminaries
and Dartmouth college. He was prin-
cipal of the academies at Royalton,
Burlington and Randolph and of the
Orange county grammar school. He
prepared three text books, received
the honorary degree of A. M. from
Middlebury college in 1866 and from
the University of Vermont in 1867
He had been principal of the Ran
dolph normal school since it was
founded in 1867, with the exception of
two years when he was at the head of
the johnson normal school. For six
years he was state superintendent of
education, from 1874 to 1880. During
this period he advocated the town sys-
TEN of schools, town high schools, a
state school tax and the complete adop-
tion of the normal schools by the state.
