AFRAID TO WAIT FOR TRUTH?
(From the ct. Adams Mcssenser)
The Brattleboro Roformer agrees with
the Messenger that the democratic
charges against Governor Bell in tine re-
cent campaign went Off half cooked. bat
thinks this paper iE straining a point
when it contends that they should not
have been preferred at all unless the
truth had been ascertained and was be-
hind them to prove every assertion, 1t
says the whole Importance Of the charge
TO the democrats was in the making of
1t public before election" That's ju~t il.
They wanted people to believe Bell vas
dishonest because IL would lose him
votes. II they didn't they would have
been willing to wait until after election.
IL would help them none To prove Bell
honest before election. That wasn't what
they were after.
The Reformer says "Tho fact tina. they
were willing to investigate is to their
credit" Is it, What else should they
have done? Is it to the credit of any.
body that. having blackencd the reputn-
ton of public man from one end OF the
state TO the other. they are willing to turn
in and Join with him aftcrwaid in finding

A Timely Suggestion,

| Now that the subject of reor.
ganizing the fire department is
the question of the hour, the
GAZETTE offers a suggestion for
Fire Districts. that will be of
material assistance to the men,
particularly tor night alarms, and
add to the promptness with which
they can assemble at the fires.
Let the city be divided for this
purpose into four districts, and
after a short general alarm has
been rung on the bell, then
strike the number of the district
in which the fire is burning.
Dist. No. 2-Strike II
This district embraces both
sides of Second or Main street,
to the river.
Dist. No 3-Strike III
Between Second St. and c. &
E. R. R. track, south of Madi-
son street.
Dist. No. 4-Strike iii
Between Second St. and G. &
E. r. r. north of Madison St.
Dist. No. 5-Strike iii
West of c. & R. R.
This would not not only give
the approximate location of the
fire for any one who might wish
to go, but would also tend to re-
lieve the minds of people inter-
ested in property in districts away
from the fire.
We suggest that this matter be
brought up and discussed at the
first meeting of the Fire Depart
ment.

Several days ago the boys of the

without informing the young ladies,
and decided to have a leap year
party tomorrow night. The girls
did not consider this as fair, and
for several days threatened not to
go and ask the boys for their com

during leap year, but matters have
been adjusted, and the party will be
held tomorrow night.

E. E. Wilson is president, is max
