at is Nothing to Tie"

-" Tis nothing to me-" the beauty said
With a careless toss OF her pretty head;
"rhe man is weak who can't refrain
From the cup YOU say is fraught with pain"
1t was something to her IN after years,
When her eyes were drenched in burning
tears, 49,, -,
And she watched in lonely grief and dread,
And started to hear a staggering treaa'
cts nothing to me-" the mother said
II have no fear that my boy Will tread
The downward path of sin and shame,
And crush my heart and darken my name.
1t was something to her when her only son
From the path of life was early won
And madly quaffed of the flowing bowl
Then-a ruined body and a ship-wrecKeo

"It's nothing to me-" the merchant said,
As over the ger he bent his head;
Pm busy today with tare and tret

1t was something to him when over the wire
A message came from a funeral pyre-
A drunken conductor had wrecked the tram
His wife and child were among the slain.
"It's nothing to me-" the young man cried
In his eye was a flash of scorn and pride.

While the cob lrts of death their vigils keep,
Alluring the young and thoughtess in

No More Swords.

The officers of the future will go into
battle without "A sword, The flashing
blade" that Tor ages has been immor-
talized by poets as the best power of
bravery IN the game of war, is really
menace to the life OF the wearer, mill
tary experts declare, and must be aban-
doned. Col. Arthur l.. Wagner, Assist
ant AdJutant General, who was the chief
umpire at the recent Fort Riley maueuv-
res, asserts that the historic weapon is
only fit for display uses. 1t has no
practical value whatever, he al eyes.
Col. Wagner saws;
In many cases the first indication of
the opposing force was given by the flash
ing OF bright scabbard in the sunlight.
This was a matter OF general remark
and caused many officers to question
why IN the recent stage of warfare they
were required to carry a weapon which
has not a single element of practical
| utility to compensate for its capacity

wear IT, In fact, The sword is a plctur

Personal Testimony.

n. W. Hardy, known as the father Of
high license, has this to say of his own
child: High license does increase the
number OF unlicensed drinking places. 1t
does not lessen the drinks or the curse,
1t is a whiskey devil in temperance garb,
At first the liquor men fought against it ;
now they all fight for it. There are Just
as many Standings, shootings and
pounded noses as ever there were; Just
as many broken homes, crying wives and
ragged children. High license is one OF
the devils best devices to deceive good
temperance people"
St. Johnsbury Caledonian. [volume] (St. Johnsbury, Vt.) 1867-1919, 1903-01-21
The Personal Equation.

In the midst Of all the discussion as be
tween license aud prohibition, let us not
forget entirely the personal equation.
For instauce:-Did any young man ever
grow to middle life aud maturity, or to
the time when he saw the years sloping
on toward old age, and regret that be
had made abstinence from the use OF in
toxicating liquors rule OF lie; Thous.
ands beyond the numbering have come
to that Time of their lives and have gone
to their graves filed with VAN regret
and biting remorse because they gave the
drink habit chance to bind them fast in
their early years. However a Young
man may theorize about the best way to
control the liquor traffic, here is ques-
ton Of his own control of himself which
he may well CONSIDER on the threshold oil
this new year. In all things temper.

the use OF intoxicants abstinence is far

The Demand for Government Control.

As one of the results OF the railroad and
steamship mel gers, the increased capital
ization of trusts already overburdened
with watered stock, and the coal strike,
the most casual reader OF the press must
have noticed the growing demand Tor
government control. Here, for instance,
is DR.. LYMAN Abbott. editor of the Out
look, advocating government regulation
of trusts, even to taking possession OF
them when necessary, and operating
them in the interest Of the people. Fore
ing labor unions to obey all the laws,
but also making every poration, great
or small, do the same thing, would bring
about a solution OF the problem, in the
oninion of DR.. Abbott. These ideas were
uttered in an address delivered before the
students of the Chicago University, and
made profound impression both there
and throughout the west, which is al
ready FESTIVE under present social condi-
tions.
The next opinion noticed was that of
Judge Grosscupof the United States court
at Chicago, who declared publicly that
another winters experience Ike this will
raise up a sentiment in favor Of the
public ownership OF the coal fields of Hi
-.
But the most remarkable demand came
in congress last werk when Representa-
tive Jenkins of Wisconsin, chairman OF
the house law committee, introduced
resolution which declared that necessi-
ty had arisen for congress to take DOS
session of all the coal mines in the United
States, and all lines OF transportation,
agencies, etc, connected with the same,
and calling upon congress to report
bill that will bring this about Let it be
remembered this resolution was not i'll
PRODUCED by populist or a crank, but
by member of the house who occupies
a prominent position i'll congress. A
public sentiment is behind him which
cannot be snufied out by any vaporlngs
of the New York Sun or any other organ
ofthe captains of industry and the trusts
they repre- sent.

where Would Won Locate the Saloon i'm
your TOwne

If your town is to have saloon where
will you locate it? Fathers, mothers,
merchants, where would you place the
saloon in your town? Would you want
it alongside of your house, OF your store,
of your church, of the schoolhouse?
Would you want it on the main street
where the boys and girls would have to
pass it on the way to the postoffice and
the school and on errands to the store?
Do you say it must not be placed near
you and yours Where would you locate
the saloon in your town? ltwould have
to be located somewhere. It it is not a
nit institution to be placed near your
home will you be unkind enough to vote

Vermont Weekly Trade
Report.

There continues to be sufficient snow
for practical purposes and the lumber
men are improving the situation. There
is still good demand for wood for fuel
and the prices are firm. While there is
a moderate supply OF coal in few towns
nothing has developed to relieve the scar
city of coal in general, and the fuel ques
ton is still serious. This is the only i'm.
portant drawback in the business condi>
tions. The granite dealers are doing well
for the season Of year and prospects are
encouraging; marble interests are active
and there is an increasing demand Tor
marble productions. Operations in the
slate quarrles are affected somewhat by
snow and extreme cold weather Condl
tlons this season have been reasonably
favorable for the production of slate and
the demand has been very good. Other
lines OF manufactures throughout the
state are generally well employed. The
retail trade is good, seasonable articles
are IN good demand and merchants are
encouraged at the situation and pros
poets.
In Burlington lumber interests are
fairly we'll employed although just at
this season OF the year it is possible that
strength is more apparent in prices than
dtmand. The cotton mills and other
manufacturing concerns are busy and
there is a good demand for groceries S.
hardware, tobacco, etc, OF the obbers;
the retail stores are doing a large bust.

ing special sales and are disposing of a
large amount of goods.
Business in Hardwick is good among
the retail trade; the granite business is
quiet at present, but the prospects are
good tor much activity in this branch at
this place. Swanton reports business to
be reasonably good, conditions remain.

the garment factory is busy and retail
business is good. The new street rail
way is fairly we'll palronized and is a
great convenience locally. Business in
Rutland is of usual volume; the labor
trouble is still unsettled. The Rutland
Florence Marble Co. which has occupied
Offices re has moved to Fowler, the
new station, near their new mills. This
mill which is now in operation, is pro.
badly the best equipped of its kind in
the world. Poultney reports good de-
mand for slate and prices are firm. The
winter weather interferes somewhat in
the production OF slate; retail trade sat

business very good for the time of year,
retail trade about the average, collec-
tions fair. Bennington reports the man.
ufacturing interests active in all respects
retail trade little quiet as is usual after
the holidays, collections good. Business
is reported to be good in all departments
in Bellows Falls; collections are good
In ST. Johnsbury the scale works are
busy and other lines of manufacture are
well employ ed, retail trade good for sea

THE TEMPERANCE QUESTION
No Open saloon Yet.

1t is hardly excusable for any Vermont
journal to assume that the state has
substituted a high license law for the
present prohibitory statute through the
action OF the legislature. The fact is the
matter is simply placed before the people
for their action, as promised by the re-
publican state platform last June. Pro.
hibton as well as license republicans
were instrumental in placing the question
before the voters and all will make strenu-
Gus efforts during the next few wee ks
to impress Their respective views upon
those VINO have heretofore been indlffer-
ent upon the subject. There will I'M
doubtedly be radical changes in the liq
uor legislation in this state within the
next few years, but the News is not pre-
pared to believe that a majority OF the
voters are ready to establish the open
saloon with all its evils, in Vermont. -
