The Barre daily times. (Barre, Vt.) 1897-1959, 1903-07-10

The pr0digious strides recently made BY
The Boston Sunday Herald seem almost
phenomenal even IN these days Of accept
ed progress Not content with making a
good paper, which The Herald has always
been, nor resting for time because it
was better paper than any other, It
seems to be determined TO set a pace
which will preclude rivalry. Certainly
no paper comes into this office which Gov
ers SO wide a field so well or which is So
broad in the discussions Of the day. No
paper in the country boasts such an ar
ray of humoristic talent, nor is there one
which can approach The Herald 10 the
matter Of its illustrations Without going
into the details OF The Herald's great
ness, there Is one feature which deserves
unusual mention-the ehildrens depart
ment In no publication can there be
found such presentation. 1t is clean,
pure and wholesome. II Is bright with
out being repulsive, and interesting with
ont being offensive. 1t appeals to the in
telleet Of children rather than to their Wis
ion. Such a children's department should
meet with the approval Of parents every
where Surely The Herald is entitled to
be called New highlands Greatest News
paper.

TRADE SITUATION reviewed
As 1t Appears to Leading CONNER
cial Agencies.
In Some Lines n Feeling Appronchs
ing Optimism seems
TO Exist.

New York, Dec. 7.-BradStreets says:
Better feeling-approaCning optimism
in some lines-is due to Improvement IN
retail trade, stimulated by cold weather,
the advent Of the holiday season and the
more normal tone of public sentiment.
Jobbing trade in s~easonable goods has
also expanded as a result Of recorders
to fill depleted stocks. Back of these,
but with an apparently close connection
in It's effect upon sentiment, is the strong
position Of the agricultural staples.
Colder weather has also stimulated the
coal trade east and west. More conf
dence is also shown in the market for
the cruder forms of iron and prices are
steadier. Some industries, notably flour
milling in the northwest and shot man
ufacturing in New England, are in ap-
parently good shape, with record break
ing shipments noted for the season, but
the advance in raw cotton is a matter
of concern to the trade, where, indeed,
the possibility of curtailment is being
,looted. In the iron and steel trade shut
downs more than offset assumptions"
r. G. Dun & Co.'S weekly review of
trade says: Trade is ~seasonably quiet
except in the lines affected by weather
and those embracing holiday goods,

to give the judge time to give each of
the men a private examination. The
penalty provided by statute is imprison-
ment in the county Jail for a period of
not to exceed ten years, or a fine of not
TO exceed $4,000 and Imprisonment in
Jail not more than one year.
Ex-Alderman Ghysels also entered q
plea of guilty in the superior court, thus
confirming the report that he Friday
confessed to the prosecutor, telling all
that he knew Of the deal. Ghysels is the
alderman who, when arraigned in po-
lice court, corrected the judge when
he was charged with receiving $3.50, say
ing that he received only $500, and after
wards pleaded not guilty.
The examination of ex-Alderman
Ellen was resumed in police court Sat-
urday, with Salisbury on the stand. Ex-
Alderman Lozier also appeared in court
awaiting examination, he having failed
to appear from day to day hitherto, and
having been threatened with the estreat-
ing of his bail.
Ex-Alderman Lozier waived examina-
ton in police court and was held to the
superior court under $4,000 bonds.
Salisbury Questioned.
In the Ellen examination Attorney
Walker, for the defense, attempted to
pin Salisbury down to exact dates and
details of conversations, but Salisbury
refused to attempt to make detailed
statements. He said he met Ellen for
the first time in his private office, but
could not state what he said to him then,
saying: MY mind has not got down to-
such details"
Have you a clear recollection Of a
single thing you said?"
II cannot answer that question. Ellen
agreed to take $1,000 replied Salisbury.
Mr.. Walker sought to corner Salisbury
into admitting that his statement OF
the conversations with the different
aldermen vas the same. Salisbury said
the various negotiations really were
substantially the same, with che excep-
ton of those with Muir. He said: None
Of the aldermen were surprised at my
going into this affair. / don't recall
that any Of them said anything about
the deal being unjust to the city"

which are in good demand. Activity
is especially conspicuous among foot
wear jobbers and retailers. Commodi-
ties are generally lower in price, al
though a few important articles, such as
cotton, eggs and dairy products, have
risen so sharply that Dun's index num-
Der on December 1 was $9S, 1928, against
$97,S25 a month previous. For the year
there is a decline of about two per cent.
Manufacturing conditions are still ir-
regular, the best symptoms of the week
being the steadiness of iron and steel.
Several encouraging reports are re-
ceived regarding the iron and steel sit
uation. In most cases the proposed re-
duction in wages has met with no OPP
position, and such business as
forward is handled without interrup-
ton. Another good sign is that the past
week has brought no further reductions
in prices.

204 the corresponding week last year.
