susnendIng. Judgment.

A keen critic once said to young wo-
man about to begin the study of paint
ing: when you look at picture, do
not say at first, even to yourself, L like
It, or L don't like it Try to see what
there is in It,"
The advice was sound, and 1t need
not be stretched thin to cover much
larger region of life than that which
belongs to art. The quick, instructive
like or dislike which many a woman
conceives in the first hour of her ac-
quaintance with person may be well
founded or it may be i'll founded. II 1t
justifies itself she remembers 1t and
prides herself on her knowledge of hu-
man nature; if 1t proves false, she for
gets all about 1t and in a year would
deny that she had ever disliked the
person, or at best she would defend her
mistake by quoting, otis safest
to begin with little aversion"
In point of fact, the power of sus-
pending judgment on book, picture,
man, woman or plan Is the mark of a
well trained mind. The judgments
worth anything are based on something
stronger than "A woman's reason -
think him so because | think him So

Portland Press ;--Vermont's official
majority for local option is only 729, but
the real majority is little over thous-
and, several towns not having sent in
their vote in time, to the secretary of
state. 1t is evident that so small a
majority will not finally settle the mat.
ter. The ProhibitioDists will continue
the fight and their success or failure will
depend very much on the results of the
local option law in practice. There have
been good many saloons In the Green
Mountain state under prohibition, but
they have been somewhat concealed.
Under local option in towns that vote
license they will be as open as other
shops. How this will affect public
sentiment remains to be seen. 1t is a
fact perfectly well known that the
spectacle of the open saloon has caused
many town in Massachusetts that
voted for license to retract after a year s
experience and vote for prohibition.
A very slight change of this sort in
Vermont would overthrow local option
and bring about return to prohibition.
Ii can, therefore, hardly be safe to reck-
on Vermont as one of the states that has
gone over permanently to license. A
year may see it back in the prohibition
column.

The next meeting was announced To-
be held, Monday evening, March 2. a.
which the question of direct primaries
will be discussed
The subject for discussion being the
warrant for The meeting TO be held one
week hence, l.. L. Walton, Esq, was
elected moderator, who brought the
several articles OF the warrant before
the club seriatim, inviting discussion
and action. The formal articles were
passed over with little ceremony.
The first article that evoked discus
sion was that calling for appropriations
for highways. Messrs. L. W Weston,
Lewis Anderson and W. II. Fuller,
spoke Of the desirability of good roads
aud favored liberal appropriations in
the interest of business and to attract
people to our town for pleasure as well.
Mr.. Weston favored giving greater
attention to the main thoroughfares
leading into our village.
Expressions of the meeting was in
favor of liberal appropriations for roads,
bridges, schools, etc, about the same
as were made last year. There were
also votes favorable to the proposition
to extend matchmaking on Water
street, to repair the street across the
island, to build bridge across the
Wesserrunsett river on the road tC
Canaan, and to take the preliminary
steps to make the Notch road a State
road.
The proposition to build a bridge
across the kennebec river at the foot
of Kennebec street was briefly discussed
but was not acted upon favorably. The
feeling seemed to prevail, that, while
it would be a nice thing to have thi.
bridge and that it must come some time
business at present and in the neal
future prospective, would not Justify
so large an outlay.
The erection of steel bridge across
the Wesserrunsett was looked upon as
imperative, the coming season.
The article relating to the establish
meme of manual training school was
discussed by Rev. II. w. Kimball, L.
W. Weston, r. 7. Patten, f c. Butler
l.. Anderson and others and warm
interest in the project was indicated.
The proposition to vote a sum OF
money 10 aid of the public library was
favored, also that of changing the date
of the annual town meeting from the
first to the second Monday of March

the session. This was followed before
long by bllin offset, as it were, in re-
gard to the Penobscot Log Driving COM
