Come to. .Middi iebury to Trade.

Why? Because it is the best place in
the state in which to trade. The editor of
the Register says this adviseGly, as he
knows it is true and he is well acquainted
with the advantages most of the leading
trade centers of the state offer. Middle
bury has as coed stores, as reliable and
enterprsing business men as any town.
There Is sufficient competition in every
line of trade to Keep prices down to the
lowest possible point, and also to keep
the stocks of goods up to the highest
standard. Middlebury has two of the
largest and best dry goods stores in Ver-
mont. Both are up to date, and the
stocks carried will compare more than
favorably with any city store. The
prices are lower as the expenses are
smaller The same is true in clothing
Tell US where you will find cleaner and
more complete stocks. The advertise
ments tell the story of low prices. There
are three large hardware stores, one of
which = the best in the state. There
are four fiIst-class, up-tO-date drug
stores. The grocery, crockery and
small ware stores are equally worthy of
patronage. If you cannot find what you
need in your local stores take our word
for it, it will pay you to come to Mid
dlebury. Do not send out of the state or
county for anything. We guarantee
that you can do better here than in even
the large cities. Besides this, Middle
bury pays the highest cash price for
products etc

STRANGE SHOOTING.
BrandonlMan Claims to Have Been Fired
Upon by Four Men.


Upon by Four Men.
Albert Wood is confined to the house
at the home of his iparents, who live on
the Drinks place, east of the village, with
a bulle hole through This left arm and
another through his hat, and tells a
thrilling story of being waylaid on the
public highway by four men who in
flcted the wound from which he is
suffering. His story is somewhat inco-
herent, owing doubtless to his highly
nervous state, and there are some cir
cumstances which have led the general
public to doubt it somewhat.
Mr. Wood Is young man about 30
years old, employed at the Backus fac
tory and has always borne good repu-
tation. His version of the account fol-
lows:
On his arrival from Rutland, where he
had spent the day Tuesday, on the even
ing train he Immediately started for his
home. When he was in the hollow be-
low the High street quarry four men
without word of warning opened fire
on him from four different directions.
Mr.. Wood was armed and Immediately
opened fire on his assaliants and sue
ceeded in driving them away but not un-
til one bullet was lodged In his left arm
and another had pierced the crown of
his hat.

Mrs. Howe's Lecture.

Notwithstanding the inclement wealth
er there was a good audience at the town
hail Wednesday evening to hear the
eloquent western lady, Mrs. Callie FL.
Howe, of st. Joseph, Mo. The audience
was a representative one and many not
in sympathy with her views were pres
ent to hear the prohibition side of the
great question of license VS.. prohibition.
She spoke for over two hours and held
the close attention of her hearers. She
gave a clean, clear-cut argument against
the open saloon, and etiectually riddled
the arguments of the license men. Mrs
Howe is lawyer and we doubt if any
lawyer in this county could have pre-
sented better argument against the
License Act, and why it should be re-
iected by the people by an emphatic Nc
vote February 3. Judging by the inter
est and attendance at this meeting Mid
dlebury will give big No majority the
first Tuesday in February and stormy
weather will not keep the voters from
the polls.

Old Walton's Vermont REGISTER.

The Sheldon Art Museum has been so
fortunate as to secure Vermont Regis

in 1903. 1t is the first of the series and
thought to be the only one extant. They
were printed here until 1917, when Z. p.
Walton continued the same, and they
have been published continuously until
the present time. AS there were none
printed in 1910. 1t makes Just one hun

lished The museum has the only full

According to the Elkhart (Ind.) Truth,
it is reported that the interstate COM
merce commission is about to investigate
the coal trust. That may or may not be
true. The investigation will probably
not result in much good should it be
made. Thus far the interstate commerce
commission has proved failure 80 far
as its efforts to control transportation
rates are concerned. The coal trust has
been in existence for number Of years,
but the commission has never before
seen fit to give it notice. The same may
be said of many other trusts now en-
gagged in interstate commerce. The
Northern Securities decision has given
rise to various rumors as to the proba-
bility of further trust prosecutions.
The latest and most probable is that
nothing more will be done to bring ac-
tion against industrial or railroad COM
bines until after the supreme court has
passed upon the merger decision.

One of our greatest projections against
war is our isolation from the other pow
ers OF the world. Every mile OF ocean
voyage for a foreign fleet is worth a
battleship or two to us. To throw down
the bars that protect South America
would be to deprive us of great advan-
tage. 1t would give European govern
ments foothold in that country, where
coaling stations could be established,
and would thus give them great STRAIT
egical advantage in the event OF war
with one or more of them. We must
maintain the Monroe doctrine at all
hazards.

1t is not strange perhaps that English
editors should have made mistake in
estimating the size of the American re-
public and the force of its people. The
mistake is very natural one, in view OF
the fact that the same error has been
cherished by the people who live along
the Atlantic seaboard. The newspapers
OF New York, Boston, Philadelphia and
Baltimore, but more especially those OF
the metropolis, have for years labored
under the mistaken impression that
line drawn directly south from the cen
ter OF New York state constituted the
western boundary Of all the territory OF
the United States that was great and
really influential. This idea has been
carried into finance, business, politics
and everything else of interest to the
American people as whole. But the
people of the east, who are really pro-
vincial when it comes to forming cor
rect estimate OF the resources and great
ness of tho republic, have learned sever
al lessons within the past decade. They
have now discovered that the great and
growing West is vital and compelling
force in the republic and that it must be
admitted to the national councils and
needed when it speaks.

LOVES LABOR LOST.

III may De rdJner trying TO the temper5
OF certain disinterested gentlemen, who
from sense of public duty only, have
been industriously circulating petitions
for referendum on certain Gets OF the
last legislature to learn their labor is all
in vain. The fact is that not one law
passed at the last session OF the legisla-
ture is subject to the referendum. II
they who were acting had given but
modicum Of thought to the subject they
would have been saved the humiliation
OF having exposed their cloven foot. If
the following facts and principles are
understood, there need be no trouble in
arriving at correct conclusion:
***
adopted simply declares and defines
right reserved by the people. Amongst
other things it reserves to the people
the right to have referred to a vote any
laws passed by the legislature excepting
those relating to the public health or
safety, provided petitions for this pur-
pose are filed with the secretary Of state
within 80 days after the adjournment of
the legislature.
Second. This amendment, no more
than the other provision OF the constitu-
tion respecting the method of amending
it, is self-operative. No machinery is
provided in the amendment itself to
carry out its purposes, and the secretary
OF state without legislation, would be as
helpless as child to do anything under
it.
Third. At the last session of the leg
islature an act was passed providing the
machinery to carry into effect the pur-
poses Of the initiative and referendum
amendment.
Fourth. All acts excepting those
having emergency clauses go into effect
90 days after the legislature adjourns.
Fifth. It therefore follows that no
petition can be filed or be effective until
the law prescribing the method and
manner of operating under the amend
ment is law 1t was law on May 81,
80 days after the adjournment of the
legislature, and the 80 days having thus
expired within which, under the refer
endum amendment, petitions can be
filed, they are now too late, and every
law passed by the legislature, nnless
there be constitutional objections to
them, will stand. We go further and
maintain that the secretary of state has
no authority to even file petitions. He
cannot receive and file them now for
there is no law in effect giving him au-
thority 80 to do.

Cape Charles, and intermediate stations.
This rate IS very much lower than the
old rates, and was put on In order to en-
able Norfolk shippers to Z compete with
those or Baltimore on the Eastern shore.
Steamer rates from Baltimore and points
along the Shore, and freight charged BY
coastw!se and bay sailing craft are very
much lower than the railway rates here
tcfore in effect. 5 5St
AS soon as the commission learned that
the railway had taken the Initiative IN
the matter, and sent out this new ana
lower tariff entirely on It's own authority,
the commissioners wrote to the railway
traffic manager demanding the withdraw
al of such rates until the commission
had an opportunity. to approve or dlsap-
prove them. Accordingly the railway Of
ficers asked hearing, which was granted
by the commission yesterday. Traffic
Manager r. B. Cooke. Mr.. Thomas II.
Wilcox, counsel for the railway, and Mr..
w. II. Lumsden of the Norfolk Chamber
Of Commerce, appeared before the COM
mission and argued the necessity Of tho
lower tariff. AS result Of their presen-
tation Of the case which Is nothing more
nor less than an effort to enable Norfolk
to compete with Baltimore on heavier
freights to points on the Eastern Shore,
there is strong probability that the COM
mission may approve the new rate tar
if, The commissioners now have the
matter under advisement, and will prob
ably announce their decision in a few
