THE MEAD FACTION
WON CLOSE FIGHT
Close Of One Of The Most Strenuous
Contests In Republican Party
OF Roland.

Rutland, June The Or. John A
Mead faction defeated the Clement factlot
last evening In the largest Republican eau
Gus ever held here, electIng delegate to the
state convention by majority Of 81 te
the district convention by a majority oil
83, and to the county convention by ma
iority Of 62. For state delegates 12t bal.
lots were cast: for district delegates, 2, ,l29
and for county delegates 2,l2A
The result Of the caucus will give great
impetus 70 the boom Of DR. John a. Mead
for lieutenant governor. The delegates to
the state convention are uninstrueled aud
unpledged, and it is understood that their
sole aim Is the nomination az Dr. Mead
for lieutenant governor without regard to
the gov0rHorship
The victorious Mead county delegates
ara pledged to Fl. o. Carpenter Of Rutland
for state senator while the defeated local
option delegates were promised to Judge
James A. Merrill
The light has been bitter since the an-
n0uncement from the other side Of the
state that the prohibitionists would at.
tempt to secure the repeal Of the local 0p-
tion law il Mead was nominated lieutenant
governor and Rutland county elected four
prohibition senators. at the last moment
Dr. Mead announced that he did not favor
a repeal Of the local option law. and George
E. Lawrence, IN nominating the Mead and
Carpenter delegates pledged them TO keep
the local option law on the statute
books.
This robs the Mead victory Of the great.
est part Of its effect as regards the license
law. but the defeat Of the forces that sup.
ported r. w Clement two years ago may
have some moral effect in the county con-
Yention when II comes to nominating the
other three senator's, and the dght will be-
continued In the other towns by the local
option men for the election Of delegates
who will vote only for license candidates
for the nominations for state senators.

aud under no circumstances are we to
think Of it as playhouse
Nor must pass BY one matter upon
which am sometimes specially question
ed That Is the permission 0f petty
gambling in connection with the church.
You who have differed with me upon this
question have been very loyal and good
about H. We must not add this more to the
temptations Of our young, that we bid
them gamble In the name Of, and for tho
sake Of Christ will not recommend the
slot machine or the hsh pond or the grab
bag or any of the Kindergarten methods
Of petty gambling, for 1t is against both
the moral and civil law. I know no
difference, save in the risk made. or the
amount OF prize that lures the expectant
winner, between the juvenile grab, the
sale OF chances, the Louisiana lottery, or
the gold of Monte Carlo. TO claim that
as there are no blanks, aud all get as
much OF more than their moneys worth,
Is TO eliminate all chance Of risk, aud APP
peal absolutely to that fatal passion Of
gambling for the mere sake Of gambling.
From the experience Of the past year
we have every reason 10 take heart. But
LET not material gains blind as to the only
real gain which will count in the last day.
We also are to feel and to say that we
too, count all things but loss for the ex-
ceIleney of the knowledge 0f Christ Jesus
that we may win Christ, and be found
10 him, that we may know Him. and the
power Of His resurrection Amen.

Swan Song of the MOSQUITO.

1t was an old mosquito; he was very,
very weak;
His voice was all a-QCaveT, and he found
IL hard tOsspsak.
He lit upon a victim, and he begged: -
pray, take thought!
Consider what you're doing ere you aand
that fetal swat
Know that the bIuest blood of an/is
flowing chrough.rny veins
although it moves but sluggishly bnow
that the summer wakes;
I've only sippad the choicest draughtSs this
happy land affords
I never quaGed: the ichOr of the hinIf who
chea ply boards.
MY jubilant exAstence has been on! a 10y
plan
I've taken tuIeps, from the neck OF Esorne
Kentuckian;
A maraschino titfIlant to give me "appe-
tite
I've gotten from tEpe magnate who rplays
poker every night.
Occasionally throughNthe day IIstooped
TO common stuff;
A soupcon from a cocktail slave swas al
ways quite enough.
But frequently. to cool my brain tthat al
ways was awhirl,
I tarried on the temple OF ,soda water
girl.
Eat night I sang my ltVeliest. my'rollick-
While fitting through and through the
crowd that opens lots Of MunIn's.''
CAnd here his jauty speech grew slow;
he seemed completely tagged
The old mosquito plainly was unfortu-
nately jagged)
And 80" he sighed, you see that I'm
stated connOisseur,
That never have / yearned to bite a COM
mon cheek or ear.
In spite of this. however, I'm a bounded
Ishma elite,
And everybody's hands against me all
the day and night.
Tn carboIized and gasolized and petrol
lied and slapped
And naphthalined and benzolined and
kerosened and raped
And sulphurized and etheEzed and chlor-
idiZcd and filed
With fumigating vapor till at times I'm
nearly killed.
"Yet, all 1 wIsh"-all faint and; far away
his murmur seemed,
And, lulled to slumber by the song, the
victim sweetly dreamed
Until he awakened with a start-he
thought he felt a gaff.
There lay the dead mosquito with his
punctured autograph.
