BUSINESS WELL MAINTAINED

New York, Aug 2l.--R. q. Dun e COS
weekly review of trade tomorrow will
say:
Business is well maintained, aside from
the quoting influence OF the vacation sea-
son which somewhat restricts trade and
retards collections. Labor controversies
still exist, curtailing the output of a
few products.
Earnings of railways thus far reported
in August show an average gain of 96
per cent over last year ana IS per cent.
over 1901. Merchandise is in good demand
i'm Boston but in some quarters is above
the average for August. In view Of the
very satisfactory iobbing trade that is
reported IN dry goods it is surprising that
no reflection Of the activity Is seen in
the primary market.
Moderate orders for lightweight woolens
and worstcds have been placed for spring
delivery, the former finding the quicker
market
Somewhat easier prices for the great
food staples testify to brighter crop pros

New York. Aug. 2i-Bradstreets to-
morrow will say:
Weather and crop conditions are still
the keNnotos to fall trade. In the North
west Southwest and South reports as N
whole are as good or better than n year
ago In the East fall jobbing has start
ed in well. Some soft spots are however,
noted, the central West section in
which crop yields were lighter than hoped
for buying couservativcly. Retail trade
Is seasonablN quiet, and collections are
reported backward in a number of in
stances. crop developments on the whole
are Favorable, Improvement being noted
especially in cotton and spring wheat.
Among the great industries few import
ant changes are noted. Fewer industrials
operatives are on strike now than for
months past but the idlcncss of cotton
mill operatives tends rather to increase.
The lumber trade IS active West and
North but in the East it has not as yet
recovered from the impression induced
by labor troubles now about drawing to
a close. Shoe manufacturing is notably
active the country over and eastern ship
ments are breaking all records. A scare
itY of labor in this line is noted at manu-
featuring centers in Massachusetts. The
movement of winter wheat is larger es-
pcCiallN to northwestern mills and com
plants of car congestion are growing.
Warmer dry weather has helped the ma

which is turning out much better than cx-
pccted some time ago
Print cloths are slightly weaker on the
whole. From old as well as New England

The License situation In the Marble
city Described.
From thc Rutland HcraldJ

Not long ago the Herald expressed the
hope and expectation that the license
commissioners of this city would do
their sworn duty. This was "a perfectly
natural hope and expectation, but we
made the remark because down to that
time the commission had accomplished
nothing worthy Of mention. Kitchen bars
We're in full blast and quite number
of persons holding licenses were not con-
duo ting business according to law. Aside
from one nights unsuccessful raiding
and one raid and conviction. the COM
mission had nothing to show by the way
OF proper administration Of the license
local option law in this city. That
drunkenness had increased there was no
doubt. That the local public had be-
come nervous over the license situation
was equally true. The commission
seemed to be hitched to a post. Dis
closures in open court We're promptly
passed over to the commission by the
grand juror and complaints were lodged
by others. The commission claimed that
these complaints were not put in legal
form, and nothing was done.
Finally the Local Option league took
the matter up. 1t appealed to the
sheriff department to go to the very
places where the commissions officers
had raidcd unsucccesfully, and the sheriff
and his deputies had no trouble at all
in finding as much liquor as they could
lug away. This WAS Sunday evening
last II was thought that the evidence
obtained during these River street raids
would be sufficient to unhtch the com
mission from it's post so that it could
lay the matter before the States at
torneY in the manner prescribed by the
local option law. Monday and Tuesday
forenoon went by and the commission
did not inform the states attorney Of
the evidence If Illegal selling gathered by
the sheriff dopartment No warrant had
been issued for the arrest of the River

There is an impression that Mr.. tonh-
ling, then in private life, urged That
less Conclliatory policy should he pur-
sued, but ! have no evidence that such
desire was expressed. At all events
the desire, If it existed, had no influence
upon the President, who, however, treat
ed his former leader with real Consld-
Grafton. nominating him as a Justice OF
the supreme court, which Office he dlu
not accept. but he did not give way to

Nor did the tfncs or circumstances de-
mand that there should be an admins

Between his participation on October ID,

monument and his address as part of
the ceremonies attending the completion
of the Washington monument on Fcbru-

been scNcrcly criticised or justly con-

WHAT OUR NEIGHBORS SAY.
The License Law and Summer Visitors
in Vermont.
CFrom the Barre Timcs)


Those newspapers which are making
such a hue and cry because summer Wis
itors arc not rushing to Vermont should
bear in mind that it is one hundred years
this season since the first summer hotel
was opened in the White mountains. Says
a writer in the Youths Companion;
in 1909 the first hotel in the region
was opened, and in the same year the
turnpike through the notch was char
tered. \ good many things have hap
poned since Elcazor Rosebrook set up
that first hotel, and since, years later,
Ethan Allen Crawford made tho first
path to the top of Mount Washington.
Finer hotels have been established there
Is railroad as well as the turnpike, and
one can go up the mountain by rail.
But none Of these later happenings de-
tracts from the glory OF the pioneers.
Summer resorts were not exactly a com
mcrcial proposition 4 hundred years ago.
Considering tho facilities and encourage
ment they had, who first invited people
to the Switzerland of America did as
brave a thing as has ever been done in
that region, and New hampshire has a
right to be proud of them"
Summer visitors will not resort to Yer
mont until Vermont prepares to receive
and care for them.
SENTIMENT AND OLD HOME WEEK.

This is Old Home Week. and while few
towns will have any formal observance
of the day there will be numerous Wis
itors in all parts of the state. The Bos-
ton association started as one large party
bu. breaks up Thursday morning and the
members will scatter to their old homes.
They will be warmly greeted and their
enjoyment of the event may be as great
as if there were an elaborate celebration

and music by the band. 1t is sentiment,
not ceremony that underlies Old Home

an unwise policy is being followed in
that city. For the proper protection of

should be arrested before they create a
