The Essex Publishing company's Of
fee is busy place, but when a wagon
load of coal from Burlington goes by,
as it does occasionally, and only oc-
casionally, all hands are allowed TO
knock off work long enough TO watch
it out Of sight. The coal cart is now
as interesting a spectacle as 1t used to
be an ordinary one. Why, Sunday
morning there was the greatest COM
motion in the electric cars due in Essex
Junction at ITO p. M, everybody
standing up to look out the window.

Met Fun Expectations.

It seems to the News that Gen Nc
Cullough has thus far met the full ex-
pectations of his supporters as gov
ernor of Vermont. His inaugural adj
dress was strong and well considered
paper which evidently made a favor
able impression. During the legisla-
tive session Gov Mccullough followed
the work OF the Lawmakers carefully
and was fully conversant with every
act which came to him for approval.
That he won the confidence of the mem
bers is evident from the fact that his
veto Of single bin was almost unani-
mously sustained. This action was
certainly IN striking contrast to the
usual treatment which a governors
veto receives at the hands of the gem
eral assembly. 1t is only fair to say
that no governor in many years has
enjoyed the confidence OF the people to
a greater extent than Gen Mccullough
Lieutenant Gov Stanton has alsu
proved himself to be the right man ia
the right place. It is no reflection tp-
on the worthy men who have filed this
important position in the past to say
that Vermont never had a more efic-
lent lieutenant governor nor one in
whom the people had greater conf
dence. Certainly Vermont Fhas been
fortunate in the selection of its two
principal state officials this year

Wallace N. Batchelder of Brattle-
boro, who has been accused of trying
to organize prohibition clubs while
ostensibly forming young mems Re-
publican clubs, has been sat on hard
by the state press--harder than he de-
served. Bachelor is an inoffensive
young thing who means we'll and all

During the year just closed, the
firm OF A. Drysdale & Son did the
largest business OF any year in the
history OF the firm. The year 1902 was
their largest year, the month of Dec
ember was their largest month, and
during the holiday trade, they had the
largest day. To this it is only neces-
sary to add that never before did Mr.
r. S. Drysdale, the head of the firm,
spend so much time, money and at
tention on his advertising and the
whole secret is out. The measure OF a
mans success in business nowadays
depends more on his advertising than
on any other one thing.

In the course of a rather violent,
though pointless TRADE against Bishop
Hall because Of the bishops firm and
manly stand in favor of the license
local option law, the Enosburg Stand
ard delivers itself of the following,
which is fair sample of the ostrich
like position of the prohibitionists:
''Unless he can show by unques-
toned authority that high license
laws are better enforced and in their
execution tend better to promote tenn
perance than the present prohibitory
law, how can he consistently advocate
a change, which does not offer any re-
lief from the present violations of the
law now in force. Again, If the re-
strictive provisions of the high license
law now before the people, as regards
the sale of pure liquor, the closing of
saloons at II O'Clock and on Sundays,
forbidding the sale to minors and hab-
itual drunkards, etc, cannot be en-
forced, can Bishop Hall consistently,
as a Christian teacher, advocate the
opening of saloons in every town in
the state under the Local option sys-
tenn,
Neither Bishop Hall nor any other
man advocates the opening of saloons
in every town in the state. This is
merely one of the lies that the prohib-
itionists have been telling to scare the
timid for so long that they half be-
lieve it themselves.
Friends of good government should
bear this in mind; the new law viii not
permit the opening of saloons in any
town without the consent of a majority
of the voters of that town, and is there
a town where a majority or even a
strong minority is opposed to the pro-
hibitory law that has not open saloons
now?
The Stiffness, too, of the claim that
it must be shown that the new law will
be obeyed absolutely to prove it bet
ter than the old is so apparent as to
make the Standards position ridicu-
lous.
Think of it gentlemen and voters.
Former State Auditor Barber has
shown that there are convictions un-
der the prohibitory law at the rate OF
a thousand a year, while anybody who
is half bright knows that not one in a
hundred of the offences are ever pun
ished, and yet the prohibitionists de-
maud that the new law must be infalli-
bic to make it worth trying as a sub.
stitute for law that is being violated
at least a hundred thousand times
year in the little state of Vermont with
a population of only 100000.
What logic What depth OF reason
ing. What intellects they must have
who produce such mighty weight of
convicting evidence. We hasten to
stand from under lest we be crushed

Judge Bates has done a good thing
in municipal court, in refusing to ac-
cept officers bail in cases coming be-
fore the court. The court officers have
enough to contend with in the way Of
responsibility without being expected
to become bondsman for every culprit
or suspected culprit they may arrest.
The new order will be a good thing for
the local administration of justice as
we'll as a good thing for the officers.

One Error.

We note one error of importance in
the copies of the license act circulated
in the law supplements printed at the
Free Press office and issued by papers
throughout the state last week. In the
class iGcation of licenses and fees there
for, the seventh class of licenses is
ide-tical with the third class, except
as to fee. This is a mistake. The inn
portant word mot" is left out. 1t
should read, "To sell malt liquors, 80
etc, mot to be drunk on the prem
ises." 1t is the wholesale privilege,
corresponding with the retail privilege
provided for in the third class. RAN

Some People
Cant Eat
Bread

Bread is reputed to be the "staft
al life, yet there are some people
NEhO never eat bread. We allude
10 this because of a curious paral-
Rel fact in medicine. Ifeven bread
diles not suit quite everybody, we
SsGn,t expect one medicine, even
Nmol, to cure everybody.
4 But we recommend Vinol and
sell it on a guarantee of money
back if it does not benefit the user.
Though we can't expect all to
be cured, yet, strange to say, out
oE every ore hundred bottles sold,
tsss than two per cent proved
unsatisfactory. In other words,
Niney-eight out of every hundred
found Vinol of value - many of
Ahem of very great value.
We want to say that if you are
-Rpn-down, weak, too thin, ailing,
'sR1th bad stomach, poor appetite,
cough, nervousness, that we think
SSnol will help you, At any rate,
q will cost nothing to try it.
You can have your money back if
you say it doesn't help you. Vinol
has a pleasant taste, and is recon-
Eaended by physicians as a safe
andunusually ebody-builder
and general tonic.

The following is going the rounds OF
the state newspaper:
The condition which initiates the
strongest against the chances OF the
local optionists is the wholesale open
ing of saloons aud drinking places in
every city aud large town in the state
since the passage OF the license bill by
the legislature. Every old-time law
breaker of this class aud many others
have sprung up, to the CONSERVATION Of
the advocates of license, VINO see the
tide of public opinion on the part of
the sober. consery alive element OF the
state slipping away or turning against
them.
The foregoing would be interesting
if it were true, but it isn't true. Never
before we're the saloons of Bennington
shut up as much of the time as they
have been since the September cleo
