any other place than that described in
his license?
I'd. Can the licensee sell to persons in
this state not duly licensed to sell intoX-
icating liquors as provided by said act?
Sd. Can the licensee sell in guam
titles less than five gallons?
4th. Can the licensee solicit orders
from the consumer in town that voted
no license and deliver liquors to the con-
sumner?
9TH. Can a license be issued to firm
and if so, should the names of the men-
bers be specified in the license:
Judge Munson's instructions were as
follows:
"Your questions will be taken up in a
different order from that in which they
are presented. They are all asked with
reference to licenses of the fourth class
those for the selling of liquor by the
wholesale.
"In reply to question 5,-if a license
can be issued to a firm,-it is clear that
the names of the individuals composing
it must be given in full. But perhaps 1t
is safer to say that license can be issued
only to some individual.
"Question 3, Can the licensee sell in
quantities less than five gallons" is an
swered in the affirmative. The law does
not fix any limit by measure and the
court cannot establish any.
"Question 1, Can the licensee make
sales at any other place than that de-
scribed in his license? is answered in
the negative. The application must be
place, in town named, and the license
can be no broader than the application.
This requires that the orders be received
and accepted at the wholesalers place of
business.
"Questions and involve the mean
ing of the word wholesale as used in
the statute. The subject is not free
from difficulty, but our instructions are
a sufficient guide for your action with
out its being assumed that they contain
unquestioned law. That can be ascer-
tanned only when questions raised upon
some Indictment or information pass tC
the Supreme court. We conclude and
instruct you that by this fourth-ciass
license the Legislature intended tc
provide for authorized sales by whole
sale dealers within the state in supply OF
the authorized retail trade, and not tC
provide an additional class of licenses fOl
sales directly to the consumer. 81
questions 2 and 4 are answered in the
negative"

THE
new YORK WORLD
THRICE EDITION.
Read wherever the English Lang
uage is SFoken.

The THRICE-A-WEE WORLD was
brilliant success in the beginning and has
been steadily growing ever since. Time
is the test of all things, and has set its
seal of approval on the Thrice-a-W Week
World, which is widely circulated in
every state and territory in the union,
and wherever there are people who can
read our mother tongue.
This paper for the coming winter and
the year 1908, will make its news service,
if possible, more extensive than ever.
All events of importance, no matter
where they happen, are reported accur-
ately and promptly.
The subscriber, for only one dollar IA
year, gets three papers every week and
more news and general reading than
most great dailies can furnish at five or
six times the price.
The Thrice-a-Week W ord is absolutely
fair in its political news. Partisan bias
is never allowed to effect its news
columns, and Democrat and Republican
alike can obtain in its pages truthful
accounts of all the great political cam
paigns.
In addition to all the news, the Thrice
a-Week World furnishes the best serial
fiction, elaborate market reports and
other features of interest.
The Thrice-a-Week Worlds regular
subscription price is only 81 per year and
this pays for 1856 papers. We offer il
and this paper together one year for
81 .65 in this county. The regular sub
scription price of the two papers is 81.

In recent letter to DR.. Hartman,
Congressman Botkin says:
any Dear Doctor-It gives me pleas
ure to certify to the excellent curative
qualities of your medicines-Peruna and
Manalin. / have been afflicted more or
less for quarter of century with ca
tarrh of the stomach and constipation.
A residence in Washington has increased
these troubles. A few bottles of your
medicine have given me almost COM
plcte relief, and am sure that contin-
uation of them will effect a permanent
cure" -J. d. Botkin.
Mr.. L. T. Verdery, prominent real
estate agent, of Augusta, Ga. writes:

catarrhal dyspepsia. TRIED many ply
sicians, visited a good many springs,
but believe Peruna has done more
for me than all of the above put
together. IfeeI like a new person. -
L. F. Verdery.
The most common form of summer
catarrh is catarrh of the stomach. This
is generally known as dyspepsia. Peruna
cures these cases like magic.
If you do not derive prompt and salts
factory results from the use of Peruna,

full statement of your case, and he will

When an advertisement offers an in
weston stock in gold mine or oil well or
anything else that will pay from 10 to
100 per cent dividends the way to make
money out of it, is to let it alone, Plenty
of capital can be found for even a 10 per
cent investment without advertising for
it. -Northfield News.
That is the gospel truth, and it applies
to the smooth talking agent who is sell
ing such wonderful paying investmentC9.
Let them all alone. Any stock or bonds
that promise to pay more than the usual
interest are not investments but specu-
lations, pure and simple.

We note with sadness the announce
ment of the death of Harry G. Dewing,
which occurred at Cincinnati, Ohio, Sept.
8. Educated as a lawyer and admitted
to the bar, he took up newspaper work
in 1850 from love of the business and
made one of the best all around news
reporters the state has produced, until
intemperance ruined both his health and
usefulness in his profession. He was
employed ON the Montpelier Argus, the
St. Adams Messenger and other state
papers. Personally he was man who
made and kept friends, who sincerely
regretted his downfall.

Speaking of Judge Munsons opinion
of the rights of a wholesale liquor dealer
in Vermont the Rutland Herald says:
"The spectacle of heavy express wagons
from Rutland rolling through towns like
West Rutland and Proctor carrying
small packages of liquors and beer for
delivery to consumers, and the soliciting
of trade by runners from Rutland whole
salers are very offensive to decent
people. There is sufficient thirst in this
vicinity without developing it by house
to house canvass. 1t is repugnant to
the moral sense of the community that
the wholesalers should importune the
individual consumer 1t is enough that
the individual consumer importunes
the retailer
This is very significant editorial and
we commend it to our readers as worthy
of careful consideration. Evidently the
liquor business is not as respectable as ii
was once in the eyes of the Herald.
