Young Plants

Every farmer knows that
some plants grow better than
others. Soil may be the same
and seed may seem the same
but some plants are weak and
others strong.
And that's the way with
children. They are like young
plants. Same food, same home,
same care but some grow big
and strong while others stay
small and weak.
SCOTS Emulsion offers an
easy way out of the difficulty.
Child weakness often means
starvation, not because of lack
of food, but because the food
does not feed.
SCOTS Emulsion reallyfeeds
and gives the child growing
strength.
Whatever the cause of weak
ness and failure to grow
SCOTS Emulsion seems to find
it and set the matter right.

A CHOICE FOR JUDGE IDE.

The st. Johnsbury Republican evil
IDENTIFY sees humor in the suggestion of
Judge Ide for Governor of Vermont
when it says:
Root has resigned as secretary OF
war and Taft succeeds him. Wright
has been made governor of the Philip
pines in Taft's place, which makes
Judge Henry o. Ide, vice-governor of
the Philippines. Well, we don't
blame him for not wanting to stay in
Vermont to scrap for the governor
ship"
The very thought is humorous now
and indeed it has been all the time
when it is considered that had Judge
Ide acceded to the wishes of some of
his friends he would have given up
position full of usefulness, opportu-
nifty and honor for the chance of win
ming another that is about as devoid
of these three elements as an office
we'll could be. Judge Ide is to be
vice. governor of the Philippines and
he doubtless knew it when he came to
Vermont earlier in the year. But
whether he did or not, it raises smile
to think of holding out to a member
of the Philippine commission the
governorship Of Vermont and asking
him to lay down the one for the pur-
pose of taking up the other.
As commissioner Judge Ide has had
and will have part in building
country, whether that country be
eventually kingdom, empire or part
of great republic, while as Governor
he would have an inaugural reception
and ball, possibly one veto, and the
privilege of signing two Thanksgiv-
ing and two Arhor Day proclama-
ions. Isn't such proposition hui
morous, ana if not what is humor?
No, the Journal is not trying to be-
little the Office of Governor, it is
simply commenting on what the peo-
pie of Vermont have done, or perhaps
what they have left undone in making
and keeping this Office almost purely
ornamental.

TIRED.

Want to hear the chickens peeping
Underneath the hollyhocks,
Want to hear the crickets chipping
Mong the grasses an rocks.
Want to see the cattle coming
Down across the pasture side,
Want to see 'em stop, a-Sdrinkin'
From the trout brooks rushing tide
Just to sit down after supper
On the oil back porch, an hear
Plaintive callings of the whip'wills
Coming to me soft and clear.
Far away ] know farmhouse
With a mountain up behind;
Apple trees attending over
Always whispering something kind.
Like to see the silver moonbeams
Falling on the oil black stoop
An to hear the nighthawks crying,
Cryin' ere he makes his swoop
Want to drop it all an scamper
Way from bus ness, work an toll /;
Want 10 get right down to Nature,
Want to stretch out on the soil,
Want to hide in some back country
Where the trolley'll never be,
Where the hardest working creature
Is the droning honey bee
Want to hear the cricket chipping
'Mong the grasses an the rocks,
Want to hear the chickens peeping
Underneath the hollyhocks.

Politics or THE TRIP.

There were ex-Goyernor5 and next
Governors as usual on the Fish and
Game outing Friday and although
State politics were not so earnestly
discussed as On some like occasions
still there was something doing" in
that line. The two names most fire.
quently mentioned were without
doubt those Of Lieut. Gov. Stanton
and Hon. Joseph A DeBoer, but a
goodly number of others were spoken
of. One new name appeared in Col.
7. @. Fletcher of st. Johnsbury and
it was rumored that his friends were
in earnest but no one mentioned how
the proposition would strike the

plan is a superb inducement to the
negro for in it would be found free
dom. individuality, and the oppor-
tunity of an independent common
wealth, in which he would be freed
from the unequal competition of a
superior people, and given chance
to develop character and to dem
onstrate the merits of his leaders and
the capacities of the race. He would
have it that no white man vote in the
negro State to harass the negro's ooun-
ellis, that no negro vote in any other
State than his own.

negro is an accident--an unwilling, a
blameless, but an unwholesome, un-
welcome, helpless, unassimilable ele-
ment in our civilization. He is not

to share in the duty and the destiny
which he perplexes and beclouds. Let
us put him kindly and humanely out
of the way. Let us give him better
chance than he has ever had in his
tory, and let us have done with him.

Lake st. Joseph. 1t is all right for
the owners of property along the
shores Of this pond to keep in the pro-
cession and call it a lake, but it seems
a pity that in doing so historical
and rather romantic name should be
sacrificed. Why would it not be as
well to call it Joe's Lake or Lake Joe,
and thus lend the desired dignity to
the name without wiping out entirely
the fact that it is the only natural
monument to the memory of the last
of his race in this section of the State.

The Genuine VS.. Counterfeits.

The genuine is always better than a
counterfeit, but the truth of this
statement is never more forcibly real

stitutes that are on the market. W. S.

DID ALL He COULD.

London, Sept. 1.-The defeat of Sir
Thomas Lipton's cup challenger,
Shamrock III, was received in London
with absolute listlessness. The con.
census of opinion is that Sir Thomas
Upton had done every thing that time
and money could accomplish and wide
spread sympathy for him is shown.
The chief hope expressed in the
streets is that Canada will enter the
lists next year and possibly succeed
where the mother country has failed.
1t seems improbable that, in view of
the failure of Shamrock III, another
challenger will soon be despatched
from England.

LIMIT NOT Reached.

Washington, Sept. DIT is re-
ported on good authority that the
grand jury now in session in the Dis
trict of Columbia will shortly return
true bills in the postoffice cases, not
only against those already under other
indictments, but against former
high official whose name has been
mentioned, but whose possible con-
nection with anything out of the way
has not been seriously considered.
Ii is alleged that the statue Of limit
ations does not apply to the matter
under consideration, as it concerns
contracts still in effect. If the in
dictm ents suggested materialize it
will produce greater sensation and
more POLITICAL disturbance than any
development which has yet transpired
in the postoffice scandal.

COTTON FROM AFRICA.

Liverpool, Sept. 5.-The news of
great development in the cotton trade
of West Africa somewhat surprised
the cotton interests here. Cotton
growing in West Africa was regarded
as in an experimental stage. Thirty
tons of cotton from Lagos arrived in
the Mersey this week, and was pro-
nounced of excellent quality. The
seed sent out from here and sown in
June is expected to yield 4,o0O bales.
The first delivery of this crop is ex-
pected at Christmas. IT the expert
ment is successful the cultivated area
will be increased as rapidly as possible.
